Um, hello..
 I'm currently at an age where most people would.. Sort of.. Go through some self-discovery thing-y? I'm not actually sure, and to be honest.. I don't think someone can go a day without discovering something about oneself. Anyway.. (Gosh I'm going to regret this..!) Yeah, My emotions have been all over the place. I've been diagnosed with a mental disorder I don't even think I have. I'm in a real mess.. I know I can't get any serious advice from this one thread but, I'll take the slightest thing I can get- gratefully! Thank you for reading this, sorry for wasting your time..

You bring up an great topic and I am glad you posted it!
 Health professionals like to organize the problems you experience around some diagnosis so they can address it. Doctors can make mistakes and misdiagnose. For example, I was told by one professional that I have social anxiety disorder. My current therapist doesn't necessarily agree with the diagnosis. Of course, I am not sure who to believe.  KaiGray, if you think the diagnosis is incorrect, you might try to get another opinion.You could also be feeling a little shocked or denial about the mental disorder diagnosis. I have felt this too. I don't want to believe there is anything wrong with me. I hope this helps some. |

Hey,I'm so glad someone brought up doctors and different diagnoses! I started seeing counselors/therapists at the age of 12 up until I was 40. And was on so much medication I should be in a coma. Its been 6 yrs now and I've not had one pill. I REALLY think I need to get back into therapy as I'm having some BPD issues I think but my point is to YES, be very careful! Especially concerning medication. I will NEVER EVER again see a county mental health professional! Nothing against the good ones but I'm just saying. My problem was that I just believed my doctor because she was a doctor and so took what she prescribed me.... NOT a good idea and easy to get into.
What really angers me is that I probably never needed the first pill!!! That of course is on my wonderful/deceased mom so what can I do right? |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
