I’d be more than happy to elaborate more on my situation for anyone that’s interested in helping me.
Thank you.
Im sorry but you wont find professional help here. thats not what psych central is for. if you scroll down to the bottom of every page you will see that there is a disclaimer that clearly states this site is not for professional purposes. and that you will need to contact your own treatment providers.

I think of psych central like sitting at your kitchen table over a cup of coffee with your best friend. members share a bit about their lives and problems and some reply back to you about their own lives and problems.

we can also make suggestions based on what has helped us with the same problems but only you and your own treatment providers can say what is what in you and how to best deal with it based on your own body, life and problems.

let me give you an example why ......I..........this this rule is here that we cant act like each others treatment providers....

on another website someone posted their problems.
others replied you have this that and the other thing and heres what you do about it...
next thing we knew this members family was posting that members obituary and that thanks to everyone telling this person they had depression and dissociative disorders that member had not been propertly diagnosed with brain cancer and had died. (that site ended up being under a huge investigation and closed down and the owner of the site not sure but wouldnt b surprised if there were legal issues involved)

something to think about... when you are asking us to give you professional and non professional advice you are asking people who have trouble with delusions, hallucinations, mania, depression, schizophrenia, PTSD, personality disorders, dissociative disorders and all that comes with having various mental disorders to tell you what is going on inside your own body. do you really want someone who may be having at this moment a delusion or what ever diagnosing and telling you what is going on inside your mind and body. kind of not a good thing right. I wouldnt leave my body and mind up to just anyone online or not.

its your mind and your body, its for you to tell us whats what with you and your body and to follow what ever your own doctors tell you to do. dont place your self in a dangerous situation of having people with mental disorders having a go at your body and mind.

this site here (psych central) does not allow members, not even those that are treatment providers to use the site to practice mental health upon others.

we are all just like you, people with mental disorders having to handle our own mental and physical health problems.
