What mental issues do you guys struggle with? how's it going Jow Forums?
Mental Health General
>schizoaffective
Mostly been heavily depressed for the last few weeks. Before that it was just the regular depression. I don't really want to be alive anymore, to have to experience these thoughts and illusions.
ADHD, depression, and crippling anxiety. I take meds for all of them and they fuck me up a lot.
Depression has come back recently, I really don't know any way to describe it other than crushing.
Possibly bipolar disorder but I have no clue. Half my family and friends think I do and others think I don't. The two doctors I've seen say yes and no. I do show symptoms but also not like using the vague ones as definitive proof. It's been crazy and I wanna know what is up with me. Supposedly deluding myself that I don't have it is a symptom while psychosis in a manic or depression episode but I can't tell
Random ass amnesia that strikes at any random time. There is no solution for me unfortunately
I drink too much, is that mental? Other than that complete successful normie.
Gender dysphoria, never seen a doctor for it but it's pretty much clear to me. Maybe other things too but I'm not sure. Currently just trying to make it through undergrad
Also schizoaffective. Every day I really feel like I'm becoming less and less of a person and further disconnected. It's a surreal feel and I'm probably not doing myself any favors by not leaving my house anymore but every time I go in public it gets worse.
Asperger's syndrome, social anxiety and Major Depressive Disorder
myyb
psychopath by logic of self destruction. social introvert. Being facially awkward or whatever is the right grammar doesnt help
Do you think that extreme paranoia, social anxiety, and schizoid PD would qualify me for neetbux in Australia? I hear that our SSDI is pretty easy to acquire here on mental health grounds but I don't want to go get diagnosed for nothing.
>Be schizoid
>Known girl for a little while
>Shit goes down with abusive ex, she needs somewhere to crash
>Offer to let her stay at my place to get out of a bad situation
>Girl is interested in me and wants to date
>Turns out shes had a huge crush on me for a while
>Like her as a person, but don't really want a relationship whatsoever
>Say i want to remain by my lonesome, its not your doing
>She thinks she can make me "happy" or help me
>Try to explain that i'm content with isolation and prefer it
>I'm the only one that can fix me
>She takes me too literally and fucks off to a friends place thinking i dont want her near me period
>She's obviously sad about it, but wont fucking stop overthinking about what i tell her
God damn why is it so hard to convey the meaning of peace and quiet to people?
I want her to crash in my living room and do her own thing with my sister and her BF, they get along well. I just want to be ignored and not have to overhear too much racket.
If she happens to see this thread, you know who you are.
none technically at the moment, but in 2 hours i'm going for an adhd assessment courtesy of m'NHS
I drink everyday. It dulls whatever illness I have mentally, i'm not dead or in prison yet so it works.
Reminder to all of you
>depression is not a real thing
You are just sad because you are pathetic and repulsive, stop being pathetic and repulsive and your 'depression' will go away
someone pls respond I need to know if I should pursue this or prepare for homelessness
why don't you research it? instead of asking a bunch of mainly US plebs, even less likely there's an Ausfag who knows in this tiny thread m8
and if you do find out, then just lie and make it seem worse than it is, say you're having paranoid delusions and finding meaning in things that aren't there and you can control it for now and aren't a danger to society but don't think you can work like this
I have researched it a lot and have thought of that route but I was just hoping some other ausfag with experience in this could tell me what I'd be in for, I know there was another aussie with schizoid and bux on here a while ago.
well the thing is with schizoid is that it doesn't truly prevent you from doing things, it's just the lack of desire to be in contact with other people etc.
maybe schizotypal could net you neetbus as that comes with paranoid delusions which can get in the way of your work. i'm sure schizoid user had something else wrong with him like depression, autism etc.
I wish
My brain clinically doesn't produce a lot of dopamine
I'm clinically depressed and I take meds for it
and also schizoid with paranoia is essentially schizotypal, not schizoid. they're all levels of schizophrenia, with schizotypal being between both of them. you just sound schizotypal to me, which probably qualifies you more for neetbux.
Thanks for the heads up, I didn't know schizotypal was along that path, the future is looking a bit brighter boys.
also don't feel bad as they're 'levels of schizophrenia' in reality they just share similar neurological traits, and it's thought that if these traits developed/undeveloped further, you'd be more predisposed to schizophrenia.
mental "illnesses" are made up. stop pretending that they exist
Autism, Bipolar II, ADHD, Agoraphobia, Psychosis, Depression, Bulimic, Social Anxiety.
I take meds for most of this, but they don't really work or have really bad side effects. IE Lithium for Bipolar II made me very emotional unstable. Ritalin makes it so I can't sleep for 20-30 hours after I take ONE PILL.
your life must suck
Autism, Extreme social anxiety and Depression
my only friend is some gook i never even knew, in another state, and are only interaction are games.
I mostly live in denial. Occasional trip to the psych ward aside, things tend to go fine as long as I pretend things are fine. Probably will collapse at some point, but as long as I try to ignore that fact I do fine.
ADHD, which also causes mood swings, depression, and anxiety.
Having said that I keep myself really put together. Fake a smile, fake the confidence, move forward. The one thing I can't fake is the absentmindedness of the ADHD. I have to be reminded of shit constantly, and I always forget what I'm doing mid-task. Fucking humiliating.
Oh I'd already accepted the fact that I lent into schizophrenia with my schizoid traits, and it did come on strongly after my first and only LSD trip and cannabis usage so I understand that I'm well within the ballpark already.
