I was talking to my family about what my doctor thinks I shouldddo how he thinks I need interpersonal therapy and a neuropsychological doctor to scan my brain to make sure my forgetting isn't related to my brain. All of a sudden everyone was talking over me saying my doctor is an idiot and I need treatment for borderline personality and the blank outs are related to dissociation. They were telling me I need to not tell the public system that I have a private psychiatrist and not to tell them I have ADHD or they won't treat me as the public system doesn't treat ADHD. They were basically telling at me what to do I felt like I couldn't even speak at the end of it, I just walked away and was like thinking whatever. So, I took a bath. I don't know why they are complicating everything especially when they know how bad my memory is and how I had tremors and a seizure on Ritalin. I felt agitated, my head was spinning I felt disoriented and confused they were just stressing me out. I don't even know what I should do as everyone has an opinion of what mental illness, I really do have. To me at this point I feel like I have a mixture of different maladaptive anxiety disorders and can anyone blame me? Especially when I am stressed out even as it is that my ADHD impacts every part of my life. I really didn't need to be yelled at and have so many conflicting ideas come at me. It really doesn't help me when my doctor wants me to do something and my family tells me to do something else? When I think the best option is to go to the go and get a counsellor and get the brain scan anyway. See it was that simple why did my family have to complicate everything with all there opinions that again they can't prove.. It frustrates me because they are not doctors they haven't studied and they think they know more then a doctor that studied for ten years. I felt dominated and they shouldn't hAve started yelling loudly and invalidating everything I told them my doctor said. I know they think my doctor is an idiot but that's they only doctor that bulk bills. How do I describe how I feel when they invalidate my problems?
