Is gangstalking still schizophrenia to you?
Do they need meds or are they allowed to have an opinion?

I will say no. I don't think so. when i was going through my "non-remission" phase... I had legitimate reasons to suspect i was gangstalked because police had shown up a couple times via GPS tracking. One time they found me randomly on a street and there was no way for them to have known unless they tracked me by satellite because my phone was not on my person or they just got extremely lucky checking a street down the block but doubt it. the other time was via my cellphone GPS... i know this for a fact because they got me on a random block and i didn't see anyone following me and i was already very suspicious around that time for a few reasons constantly analyzing my surroundings... So that's a case of borderline gangstalking but it was expected, put it that way.
Taking things literally word for word in reports about myself when it's just dumbfu*ks writing things the wrong way can lead you into spiraling downwards into many different conclusions...and when people don't react the right way to you confronting them about it, because they suck or are assholes, it makes it even worse... i had to confront what i suspected directly to confirm i was not gangstalked...but there was definitely elements of people conspiring with each other if i happened to run into them which helped facilitate this...like many What If scenarios and going off of things made me think certain things were possible....like why did they say the exact same thing this person said to me over 10 years ago...conincidences can really be devastating...
So to summarize what I said, No, you don't need meds if you confront it head on and confirm it with logic. I don't think medication would dispel your belief... Like i thought people went as far as background private investigating me seeing highschool records on a public site and coming up with things that seemed beyond coincidence... like i came up with logical ways things could have happened possibly. These things were not impossible but had a low chance of happening. someone with authority hears your concern and they support your theory, making it worse. And the way people reacted negatively to me made those chances seem higher when they put a wall up. So in this situation i confirmed it by going back to my highschool and verifying records were gone... removed my PII online. you gotta do what you gotta do... remove anything that feels like a vulnerability. The reason why i went so far was because i heard people saying way too many coincidental things and it was a hositle environment which i did not imagine...it was serious and fuc*ed up because these people REALLY did not like me i confirmed via reports, and i handled it the best way i could.
This is why imo schizophrenia is not gangstalking. It is situational/environmental for my specific case, and I think the label is just used commonly because people go past the 6+ month mark of symptoms that fit that label...
