I first joined the forum over 8 years ago because I thought I had some mental health issues. I was seeing a counselor back then... then I stopped. I saw a different counselor for a time.. then I stopped. Then about 5 years ago I started again... but stopped seeing that counselor, too and I haven't seen anyone in several years.

I'm doing okay. I kinda doubt I would fit any diagnosis right now. There are issues I'd like to work on. Being more assertive and less confrontational, for instance. But - this forum is a source of support. I don't have many friends in real life And when I have had friends, I didn't find them to be helpful, and yet I expected them to give me a lot of help. I shared too many of my deepest inner struggles and then was disappointed when they couldn't resolve those struggles for me.

Anyway... does anyone feel like they don't fit any particular diagnosis, and yet find this site to be helpful?
