I think I might have a bunch of mental disorders. The ones I think I have are; 1)Depression, 2)Anger probs, 3)Severe Paranoia, 4)ADD 5)ADHD 6)Very mild schizophrenia, And, 7)I get panic attacks too sometimes, if that counts. 1) I think this cause I'm almost ALWAYS depressed, but I have no reason whatsoever to be depressed (anymore). 2) I think this cause I get angry at the slightest things. Like I went to a show where I knew there'd probably be moshing once, and I don't really dislike mosh pits, but someone tried to push me and in one and I turned around and punched them in the face like three times, without even thinking. I also really wanna kill people sometimes, but then get really apathetic and back to depression. 3) I trust ONE person in my whole entire life 100%, and I still get thoughts in the back of my mind that they are gonna fuck me over, and everyone else I always think is gonna stab me in the back, I don't know why. 4) I can't pay attention, 5).. and I also get hyper as shit for no reason sometimes. 6) Sometimes when I'm really angry I start hearing voices telling me things like "calm down" or "fuck it" over and over. 7) WEll that's self explainatory. I've also been diagnosed with 1, 2, 3, and 4. I was on anti-depressants but they made me try and kill myself so I stopped doing them. Does anyone have anything at all to tell me? I really don't know what to do wiht myself.
Talk to a DECENT doctor/psychiatrist who you can trust. That'll help a lot more than anything, and they'll know what to tell you.
oh gosh... you're 16.. i wish i had a simple answer for you, i really do.. but i do think you're on the right path. recognizing something is a bit off and deciding you want to do something about it. part of it could be those damn teenage hormones.. could be how you were raised.. could be genetics. you say you've been diagnosed... do you see a professional and talk about all this stuff in your head? do you write? draw? make art? karate? yoga? meditate? exercise? let it out in a creative non-violent way?
I feel like I can relate a lot to you. I get very apathetic and depressed a lot of the time for no reason. I have trouble concentrating. I hear voices whenever I'm very angry, or intoxicated.I think everyone is out to get me, or has some sort of plan to fuck me over. And from time to time, I'll have a mini-heart attack, where all my body freezes up kinda, and i can feel my pulse everywhere, and my ears ring, and I get scared I'm dying, and I see spots in my vision. I'm the same age, too. But on the bright side, it's what makes you the black sheep Also, I don't take meds, because I beleive I'm like this for a reason, more susceptible to the universes many lessons and energies, and taking meds would change who I am. I would be chemicals in my brain, I wouldn't be me in my mind, ya know?
I've had a lot of the problems you're describing and I can relate... For me, counselling is helping a lot and I'd very much recommend that. If you're hallucinating, you might need meds. It doesn't take away your personality, and it doesn't take away from yourself. As much as people on here will tell you it's not a good solution, it really can help.
Sounds more like Bipolar to me than anything. In manic states of bipolar people may hallucinate or become delusional. In my first-hand knowledge of schizophrenia, my auditory hallucinations almost never stop. Your best bet is to talk to a professional though.
Tough it out. It doesn't seem like it to you, but things will get better. Just give it time. You'll meet some amazing people in a few years. I think they'll help you out with most of this stuff.
During the Blitz on London in the second world war, recorded cases of depression and the number of people going to psychiatrists dropped dramatically. When people realised that they actually had some genuinely devastating problems to deal with, everything else that was going on inside their head suddenly seemed a lot less important.
i have a majority of those problems, and they get easier to deal with when you get some kind of treatment. however, if you think you have depression, i don't think you can have add/adhd along with it?
Haha wow you guys are great on here. Thank you all Haha yes I've done cocaine, didn't help much... ;p
ya, sounds like u just need to talk it out, if u dont like the idea of meds, there are alturnatives.. i have really bad anxiety/depression (im bipolar) and when im feeling down i do yoga, or meditate. being in touch with your inner self and loving yourself definatley helps to heal depression, in my experience.
my auditory hallucinations stop every now and then. but only for an hour or so. never a day goes by without thos horrid little criticisms.
