Afraid of psychosis, OCD relapse

So my OCD, depression, anxiety, and psychosis has all died down quite a bit, thank God! But I'm worried that I might by relapsing definitely in OCD, and maybe into psychosis. Some of my delusional thoughts are making their way back. I know you going to tell me to tell my doctor, but I just can't. I'm supposed to be making progress not sliding back. Gah, I feel so guilty for becoming symptomatic. I can tell my thinking is becoming more and more irrational. An example--
So I take a half day schedule for high school. I don't drive myself anymore cuz I'm too paranoid (think people are following). So I'm thinking that I need my mother to pick me up early tomorrow because that will appease the other person living inside of me.

Untraceable -

My best friend has bipolar disorder which was diagnosed only after a psychotic episode. If you believe you are becoming delusional again, you MUST tell your mother and schedule a visit with your doctor ASAP. Ignoring such serious symptoms could lead to erasing all the progress you've made.

Untraceable go to the doctor now, going now can prevent a full blown pyschotic episode. It's not a shame to go and you can't help it if you're becoming symptomatic. It's not your fault but please don't let it go far without getting help. It takes courage to ask for help I know but please know it would be the right thing to do.

I have a question for you? What type of Psychosis do you have? Was it drug induced, stress. Or just plain Psychosis. Your OCD maybe worring you a li'tl more them normal. But if you are having classic symptoms of persacutions and things of that nature I would get the check out like everyone else has said. In relapse with Psychosis it gets harder and harder to treat when we fail from getting the right treatment. I know the empty feeling that med's cause in us to feel cos we don't want this crutch.

I'm pretty sure it was just regular psychosis, though I was pretty stressed out about my OCD. I had some bizarre and persecutory delusions, and a few hallucinations.
