You are very young at only 15, however you can never be too young to approach your family Dr and explain to him/her exactly how you've been feeling hunny. Age doesn't come into mental illness, if that's what it is. My issues began when I was around 18, but long before that there were issues.
I get times of feeling mildly high and times of being extremely tired and somewhat down, often doing nothing.
It all depends on how your feelings effect your everyday life really. If it is DEFINATELY making your life difficult to bare, than honestly, you should try and explain to your family Dr, who hopefully may decide to refer you to a theripist
Please don't feel you are on your own, you are not, many folk here feel like yourself from time to time.
Should you need to talk, vent or rant, and especially if you need to talk to someone who understands, please do contact one of us community liasion and we will try and help.
Love and Hugs, Xxxx. :~))))

Thanks for responding. And I have seen at least 3 psychologists and 2 psychiatrists and a nutritionist. But I feel like a need a psych evaluation even though the current psychiatrist says that she thinks it's very clear: anxiety and depression. Well sure but I don't feel like that's the full story. Like I feel like I have a personality disorder too: maybe BPD but kids like me can't be tested or diagnosed with that, so I hear.
The only thing I'm looking forward to is diagnosing a medical problem that could be causing my depression and anxiety and shifting personality/no personality.
Or maybe I'm normal but too weak and self deprecating to accept that. 😔
