How many disorders, illnesses and mental illnesses have you faced, and still going through?

[Decentguy]

i have faced, "Schizophrenia,"O. C. D","Depression,"
and im going through : asthma, dyslexia, dysparaxia, ADHD, since birth, and Anxiety, Insomnia, and mild depression.

[SirenDep]

I used to go to a psychiatrist after my father's death, she never told me what I had but did prescribe me pills. I think it was mild depression, maybe OCD? Now I'm fine though. I have anxiety and mild insomnia, nothing unmanageable. Also recently learned I have hashimoto, which means I should probably watch out more what I eat and what chemicals I use.

[Jxpxtxr]

(Purge) anorexia (this is NOT the same as bulimia), BDD, depression, OCD, suicidal tendencies, PTSD, Insomnia, Anemia, Cardiac arythmia. They were all diagnosed by a professional (yes, I'm actually not not of those people which walk around claiming to have stuff they don't) and treated/are being treated, though so I'm good.

[Decentguy]

im not sure but i think all those mental illnesses are treatable right?

[Decentguy]

by the way sorry to hear about that. so since how long your on the treatment for those?

[Jxpxtxr]

The anorexia and BDD are probably always gonna influence my life because I failed to fully recover after 7 years & the anemia is always gonna come back unless I get permanent treatment (which I don't want) because they are still unsure about what causes it but it's probably to do with malnutrition and some overfunction in my splenic but as long as that isn't clarified I'll have to live on infusions/transfusions it sucks..

[Jxpxtxr]

Some of them since childhood some of them since puberty

[Decentguy]

that sounds pretty fucked up.

[Jxpxtxr]

I don't like that term

[Decentguy]

oh okay,
that sounds bad.

[Jxpxtxr]

I'm way better then I used to be atm & I'm not really planning to become old so it's fine

[Decentguy]

by saying your not planning to become old you meant that your gonna commit suicide after some years? because its not possible to not be old, unless you kill yourself when your young

[Jxpxtxr]

Lol yeah like committing suicide is the only way to die young...

[Decentguy]

i dont understand. i mean how can you escape from getting old?

[Jxpxtxr]

Cancer, accidents, murder, relapses, lethal illnesses (e. g. cardiac arrhythmia and anemia) - but yeah I'd consider suicide, I hate how death is so abrupt and doesn't let you say goodbye - at least you'll have that option with suicide.
PS. pls don't report this I have no intentions of actually killing myself atm.

[Decentguy]

oh okay, well i wished a lot that god give me cancer. lol
by the way dont worry im not gonna report this.
well i can understand about the suicide part of yours.
i tried committing suicide a lot of times since i was a kid.
and the last time was a stupid miracle or something. because i was very close to being dead, but unluckily im still alive.

[Jxpxtxr]

Did they find you too early, too?

[Decentguy]

once when i ate lots of sleeping pills at once and once when i cut my throat with a sharp blade they did found me early, both times, but the last time i drank floor liquid cleaner, but i just had some coughs but i didn't died, i dont know why, because there are lots of people committed suicide by drinking floor cleaning liquid and they died, dont know why it didn't happened to me

[mikemx55]

-Probably the normal amount of OCD (I think everyone has a bit of it)
-Some undiagnosed social anxiety (depends on the days, and the people that are with me, usually none)
-anxiety only when something important is gonna happen, like, in the next day. (I think it's also normal for many people)

[Table20]

i have severe anxiety and i have bipolar depression

[Decentguy]

so your on meds for that?

[Table20]

yes sir

[Table20]

thanks for mho my brother

[Decentguy]

No Prob man

[fauchelevent]

I'm currently diagnosed with generalised anxiety disorder and have recently been put back onto my medication.

[Decentguy]

i can't take any medications for my anxiety, because if i take it then my life is gonna be more worst.
by the way i hope you get recovered from it soon

[PrincessPanda]

Dyslexia and PTBIS, post traumatic brain injury. Shit is wonderful to deal with, I must say

[Decentguy]

PTBIS sounds like a very fucked up shit. sorry to hear about that

[Decentguy]

and by the way at what age you got diagnosed with dyslexia? and did you got any special education?

[PrincessPanda]

It honestly hasn't effected me TOO much, I just have trouble speaking sometimes, like I'll slur my worlds and stuff, along with get headaches and concussions pretty easy. I mean i hit my head when I was 17 so I've had time to heal from it. And I honestly can't remember when I was diagnosed with it, early in elementary school, both my parents are dyslexia so I was blessed with it too 😒

[Decentguy]

oh okay

[FallOutBoy2001]

Have: Anxiety and ADHD
Have faced: Mild depression

[Decentguy]

i hate both of these disorders.
anxiety and ADHD are sooo stupid annoying

[FallOutBoy2001]

I think the worst thing is having them together.

I also have something wrong with my ears. Not sure what, but I have trouble hearing some things and remembering things that people verbally tell me

[Decentguy]

hmm
do you have trouble understanding of what people are saying? like when someone says something you can't understand what are they saying? becuase if its that then its the same problem with me and its the symptom of dyslexia

[FallOutBoy2001]

I can be standing there, looking at you speaking, watching your lips move, and all I remember is "mmhmmhmhmmhmmhmmmhm"

I can hear that you're saying something, and I can usually catch it, but I can't filter out background noise which makes it a lot harder

[Decentguy]

it happens to me too sometimes

[YaBaba]

I only had low to moderate depression when I was 16

[Decentguy]

did your family supported you at that time? and you dont have depression anymore right?

[YaBaba]

nope, Alhamdulillah it's gone
and no my parents didn't know

[Decentguy]

im glad that its gone.
oh okay.

[rgb008]

eh I have a Visual Processing Disorder, but thats it.

[Decentguy]

so its like, when you see something, you need some time to understand what your seeing? and your brain have problems visualizing things?

[rgb008]

www.understood.org/.../understanding-visual-processing-issues
hard to explain.

For me personally, it effects my motor skills and my ability to do math.

[Decentguy]

its a very complicated disorder. but i haven't found anything related to its treatment. is it treatable or you have to deal with that for your whole life?

[rgb008]

No cure. Lol
Just gotta deal with it. Not much of an issue anymore cuz I'm done with school and not forced to do math haha
I got an IEP (accommodations) for school but that's the most that can be done. So for example, I got extended time, alternate setting and able to use a calculator on any math test. Probably the only reason as to why I passed math classes haha

[rgb008]

As for my motor skills, I just don't hold a pencil correctly. Probably am. It very good at video games either haha

[rgb008]

Am not very good**

[Decentguy]

well that sucks. disorders which have no cure like yours and other like mine really sucks.
but thats good to hear that your done with school and not forced to do math haha.
thats good that you got IEP (accommodations).

[Decentguy]

you like playing video games?

[rgb008]

I like computer games more
Controllers with all the buttons and joysticks and stuff get me mixed up and I always press the wrong thing or am too slow lol
Just my issue haha

[Decentguy]

ahan, so your a pc gamer, like me. Awesome. haha
hmm controllers can be difficult sometimes for some people
so whats your favorite computer game?

[rgb008]

I don't know I just like sims hahah

[Decentguy]

oh okay, haha

[Aeon_Flux_21]

I suffer from Alpha Maleness. I'm too god dang awesome, my dick is big and I have so much money. Why was I born with Alpha maleness?

[Decentguy]

[thecalmerface]

[Decentguy]

[Decentguy]

[Azgeda]

[Decentguy]

[Azgeda]

Just keeping my head down and trucking forward.
You talking to a shrink? Cos that's a lot of conditions on your hand here.

[Decentguy]

[CisScum]

I face OCD, anxiety, and paranoia all the time

[Decentguy]

aren't you on the treatment for those?

[CisScum]

I used to have therapy for my anxiety/ocd when I was young, then it wasn't that bad for a bit. It kinda came back and it has been a nightmare, but now it isn't too bad again but still there sometimes.

[Waffles731]

ASD
ADHD
Major depression.
I wish I was dead

[Decentguy]

i wish i was dead too man. but dont be like that. life is gonna put you down everytime, but you have to get back up everytime, i know its very hard. but never give up

[COCOCHANEL]

ocd and anxiety

[Decentguy]

since when your having ocd? how long its been?

[COCOCHANEL]

i'm not sure but maybe since i was an adolescent

[Decentguy]

correct me if im wrong, but OCD is treatable right? i mean i had it and i've been on the treatment and i got recovered. then how its possible that your having ocd since adolescent, and still having it?

[COCOCHANEL]

i don't know

[NyomiMcClinton]

Depression, bipolar type 2, and anxiety.

[Kantana]

Depression and social anxiety (In person)

[Anonymous]

bipolar here!

[Decentguy]

you get mood swings? like one day your happy and one day your depressed?

[Opinion Owner]

yes, and i really hate this about myself. as i'm getting older i find ways to cope with it, but when i was younger i could wake up feeling happy and by the end of the day i'd be depressed. often it would be without a real reason. now it's more like few weeks i'm ok, then one week i'm really feeling down. it's much better than a daily mood change

[Decentguy]

hmm, that sucks a lot. sorry to hear about that. if you need to talk to anyone about anything, im always here for you

[Opinion Owner]

I believe the world puts so much pressure on people with problems by naming them. Earlier it was 'I'm feeling under the weather' now it's 'I'm depressed'. I think that us, people with 'problems' shouldn't put a label on it, because when you do you start acting that way. I don't know if it was the same with you, but after I started looking on my problem from a different perspective (I was seeing a psychologist when I was in college), I started feeling better. If you say 'I'm depressed' you're giving it more meaning than it actually should have. I know I said earlier 'bipolar here!', it was just answer to your question although I don't like to actually think of it that way :) Hope this helps a little :)

[Opinion Owner]

I prefer to think of my condition this way - OK, now I'm feeling a little down, but it will pass, I felt great earlier and I will again' or 'I'm happy now but I won't be crazy about it, I'll let myself enjoy my happiness thinking about other things and trying to use my happiness in a positive way' :)

[Decentguy]

totally agree with you there. your being optimistic, which is a very brave and good thing to do. :)

[Decentguy]

i hope you stay positive and and optimistic like this always

[Opinion Owner]

When you learn to deal with your problem, it's easier to solve it. I hope you stay as positive as you can. Even a little more positive is better than none :) Just remember that everyone has it's bad moments and that's it. When you're feeling ok, try to analyze them however scary they may be. The beginning is always hard, it gets easier with time. Think of it as a skill you have to perfect, set small goals and try to fulfill them :)

[Decentguy]

hmm, your totally right. Thanks for the motivational and kind words. really appreciate it :)
and hey you should follow me, so i can also talk to you on PM anytime, you sound like a nice, kind and a very awesome person :)

[Dred1614returns]

[iceEverestere]
