[_abused&confused_]

Sometimes I feel like I can be deceitful to myself, like my "mind A" is determined to make me believe that I'm a terrible person not worthy of love and relationships/friendships or happiness of any sort, and my "mind B" knows I'm a good person and is struggling to work through whatever mental issue(s) I have, but "mind A" tries to confuse me about what symptoms I have so that I can't reach a diagnosis and get better. Is this normal? If not what could be wrong with me? Is this something that could get me sent to a psychiatric hospital? I want help, but I don't want to say something crazy and end up institutionalized.

Hi. I don't think you'll be hospitalised for that alone. I believe it's normal to have debates and confusions akin to that. Not saying what you're dealing with isn't anything, just that I think you're perhaps worrying more than is necessary. Please get help. Byeee.

Judging from the name you chose and what you are saying, I would guess you have been at the hands of an abuser at one time (even if the abuse was emotional or psychological I still refer to it as "hands"). Abuse causes those kinds of conflicts, so yes, it is normal, and no, you will not be hospitalized for that alone.
