MinionServatis is verified as being by the original poster of the questionThank you all, but I don't think anything is wrong with me, I have multiple personalities, I confuse reality with something that is not real, I am paranoid, but i don't think anything is wrong with me, I like that fact that I have another me. If I tell my parents or I go to the doctor, they will make me take medication for what they and other people call a "Condition", there is nothing wrong with me, I just need to confirm that i am or am not, but I don't know how to speak out. Again thank you all for the help, I rated all of you, "Excellent!"

From what I have read and heard, a person suffering from schizophrenia don't realize they have a problem, so it may be something else. Don't panic, it may be something that is controlable and treatable with medication.
Good Luck and keep us posted!
We care about more than just "love problems!"

As satindesire says, get properly diagnosed before doing anything rash, you may not be schizophrenic but may have some other kind of mental illness.
Once you have been diagnosed there is medication and help you can get.
Your family know you and love you too, and I'm sure they'll have already noticed if your behaviour has changed so see a Doctor and tell your family, I'm sure they will be very supportive.
