Hi! I've been told by a psychiatrist that I have OCD - and obsessive thinking and that he doesnt believe ADHD is a real mental illnes. But I'm obsessing over if I have ADHD or not 😂
What do you guys think I have? I am a creative person, but I can't seem to keep to focusing on one category - for example-I am in interior design school - and the constant thought of being confined to do interior design work makes me very anxious. Being confined to one area of creativity makes me feel confined and because of this, I haven't been passionate about my school work and have been doing poorly. I constantly think about all the areas I would like to do and it seems like death to be confined to one- I'm interested in just so much. If i think of going to FIT to take photography, I will feel bad about not finishing my degree in interior design, and I will think but I also want to do makeup artistry..and I would also love to do fashion design..in any category of creativity I believe I would want to do something else...what is this mental illness? Thanks for your comments in advance!
other things I suffer with - I obsess that my husband is not my true soulmate.
House work is absolutely PAINFUL for me to do - it just seems so hard and boring and I end up not doing it and feeling crappy my house is always a mess.
I spend too much time on the internet and social media and waste my life on it!!! when I should be more productive or I should be going to sleep!
thx,
sara

Branch out and be creative as much as you like. Get some sleep as well.
