my little sister is 6 years old and i love her endlessly. we are really close and latley shes been worring me. she told me the other day theres a devil inside her head that tells her to do bad things. of couse the devil in her head is just a voice but she calls it that because it fills her head with negative thoughts. she doesnt really know what a devil is. shes also been having scary dreams like one day she had a dream about a boy and a girl having a snowball fight and they went inside and a man took them away. and she had another one of people killing each other. she also has a short attention span and she gets her self in trouble often but i never thought anything of it.

my mom is really lazy and self centered so she wouldnt take her to a therapist because it wouldnt be something she would like to hear. i also believe my mom has some sort of mental diease because back in the day she used to beat my sister (oldest one) than would deny doing so. my mom used to be crazy when i was young so im wondering maybe she devoped it from her even though shes alot better now

when my little sister gets in trouble for not listing to the teacher i know now that something in her head tells her not to. like in the middle of reading time she has been said to start doing cart wheels when all the kids arnt.she aldo believes she has powers and can fly and stuff but i thougt it was a kid thing.

she does get yelled at alot because of her behavior so a mabye thats how she devolped it and i think my mom has a mental diease to so thats not good for my little sister. my moms a different story for a different time though .

i just wanna know if maybe her thoughsare normal or not because maybe she plays to much violent video games or if you think its schizophrenia or something else? and if it is a mental diease jow can i help without taking her to expert because i dont think thats poissble right now. ive been telling her to shake her head when scary thoughts occur and think positive and stopped her from plsying violent video ames but what else can i do to help

    If my sister had something like that, it would never stop me loving her. Nothing in the world can make me stop loving her, cause I love her more than anyone else in the world. Even if she chopped my hands off (never to happen), I would never stop loving her as my loving younger sister. My mom is a lazy woman too, and didnt do any thing for us but cook. From buying her needs to taking her to school and amusement parks to teaching her how to swim to playing with her kittens I had to do it all for her and I feel proud that I can say I am a responsible older brother. May be the signs of schizophrenia in your sister's character is caused by your mom's carelessness and you have to be more caring. Probably shes got dyslexia, not schizophrenia. Keep her away (if possible) from your mom who seems to be the real psycho, and she will be all right. And let her mix with more children of are age, give her more time, help her with her home work, keep her happy all the time, and be strict only when she gets a way too offhand, but be kind again when she realizes her mistake. I am ready to sacrifice anything in my life, for my sister!

      nothing could stop me from loving my little sister either! and wow sounds like we have the same responsiblies. i feel as if im a mother and a teenager at the same time and it just goes to show what one can accomplish. i really admire what your doing for your sister and im glad to hear im not the only one in this situation. i know how it feels to not have a mom and i dont want my little sister having to deal with the burdens like i did. you seem like a intellegent caring brother and your little sister is lucky to have you.

      my little sister does have alot of trouble reading. she cant read yet and all the other kids can so dyslexia sounds like that could be an idea. thanks for the advice i will deffently try harder to keep her sane and happy.

    Oh dear.. well nobody can really diagnose her except a professional. Childhood schizophrenia is pretty rare as it normally develops in late teenage years and, as you probably know, schizophrenia is a degenerative illness that gets worse over time. I'd be keeping some really close tabs on her, it might clear up as some sort of childhood thing or it might be serious. There's no way for me or for you to judge that. If you're old enough, over 16 i believe, maybe you can do the booking of appointments. The likelihood that she's developed it from your mother is low, as schizophrenia isn't hereditary or a result of abuse.

    DID, multiple personality disorder, can be a result of an unstable upbringing but it doesn't sound like that from what you've said.

    Stuff like that really freaks me out it's like when a baby is looking right at you but they are actually looking through you at things we cannot see.
