I should be stressed but it's strange I'm not. Maybe my new meds working good? Good part is I have a new therapist, appointment in 12 days and a new psychiatrist.
The psych ward found I have Hypothyroidism. Must of just happened. Had full blood work done not too long ago for first psychiatrist. I have a theory. Since it's most likely caused by autoimmune disease, which means my body is killing itself lol, I probably created this because for long time now I've been doing a lot of suicidal ideation and planning. So it's kinda of self created. Wow!....

Well, wasn't your tagline something like "always exhausted"? You could have been going towards hypothyroidism for awhile. It's a gradual thing. That was my main symptom - for about a year I was always exhausted. Sometimes doctors consider a low thyroid function on a test as low-normal. Doctors read those results in different ways. A lot of people have autoimmune disorders. If they started you on synthroid...in 2 to 6 months you are going to be amazed at how much better you will feel. Who is the "I" creating this? My goodness, it's physical...partly hereditary, and also my theory is some people are more sensitive to environmental pollution, and that might cause autoimmune disorders. After the nuclear accident at Chernobyl a lot of people developed thyroid cancer.
