Mental disorders?

I am bipolar and a mild type a schitzophrenic.

It's a wonder how I'm still alive. I've definitely survived a few personal wars.

Anyone else?

Suffered from depression for quite a while but no mental disorders other then that for me. lots and lots of medical disorders but not mental. Ah well toons we like you and all your other people in your head also LOL!!! as long as they wear diapers they are welcome here also !!! I did go the mental hospital for a stint there with the depression thing, long story. And I have to say it was pretty much a waste of time there. All they did was listen and give meds to make you numb. Didn't do anything for me except keep me diapered and wet from all the meds making bladder controll almost impossible for me to feel, did not have much control as it was and when these meds numb you out of feeling anything and everything well..... thank god I needed diapers at the time 24-7 or the nurse would have changed a lot of sheets for me LOL!!! Ah well I'm all good now and life is great again. But the diapers remain on my butt like they are supposed to be LOL

For me heres a list i can think of off the top of my head:

Aspergers

Transgender(although i think of that as more of a physical disorder)

Depression

Social Anxiety Disorder

Social Phobia

I had docs say when i was younger i would reach an emotional maturity level of a 13 year old, i however think i have reach about a 15 or 16 year old girl (wait, i think im screwed)

Heavy head trauma

seizure (although only once when i was little)

Suffocation (i was turning blue)

Migraines

and a form of self imposed multiple personality disorder (i subset my own overly complex personality traits into multiple that i can use easily, i know sounds odd)

All i can think of right now, but i did just recently get up.

Hmm:

Aspergers Syndrome is my major one

protection zone ( multible personalitys a bit like psykira, i think it has something to do with autism, but maybe not)

problems with anxiety

social problems

lack of empathy

oh and my worst one Anger 😢 ( i cant help it i get so angry really quickly, but i havent ever hurt someone bad and its usally me that breaks down and crys)

Life deals you a hand of cards, for some of us it is not allways perceived to be a great hand, but in coming to the table of life and playing them and being brave, everyone has the possibility of achieving greatness.

Well 4 me brain damage depression bipolerschitzo and much more that I can't even spell right. Along with being transgender being locked up in a state hospital don't really help none on my behalf. And doctors I have now say that my problems r caused by being at a state hospital. Being used as a test dummy is what the state hospital did to me.

This is a curious question for me. I've had a lot of "psychiatric diagnoses" but a lot of them I'm not so sure about. The ones that I am sure about are:

bipolar disorder

major depression (could just be bipolar disorder)

borderline personality disorder

gender identity disorder

Oops I let the cat out of the bag. While I more or less identify as female, I was born with a male body.

I have ADD. I have some elements of borderline, though I've been able to manage it pretty well. I thought I had OCD, but it would seem that most of what I thought were OCD symptoms are ADD symptoms actually, as taking Adderall makes them go away.

So yeah, mostly just ADD, which can be quite debilitating on its own in our modern society if you don't learn how to manage it. My therapist who is an expert in ADD calls it "extreme Hunter Brain", according to the Hunter/Farmer theory of Thom Hartmann.

I'll add to the list 7 years later.

My big 3 are: recently diagnosed bipolar II (I'm even hypomanic right now...), ADHD, and OCD.

Mental health struggles are at an all time high for me and I'm barely keeping it together. So far, not doing all that bad but I fear it's gonna get worse. Oh well, eh?

Oh, by the way: DIAPERS!

At one point in my life, about 20 years ago, I was diagnosed with a major clinical depression. This didn't come as a surprise, since all I wanted to do at the time was hide from the world. Every part of my life (family, career, relationship, health) seemed to be in disarray. I must say, though, at no time did I consider taking my life. I eventually got better, and have had no recurrences.

I didn't feel that the various psychiatrists, psychotherapists, and even a neuropsychologist,( and their various treatments), were all that helpful. I knew I had been in a very competitive work environment, and I felt that my feeling of being unable to keep up was at the root of my problem. When I got away from that environment, I believe the recovery process started.

It is unfortunate that mental illness is still seen as something shameful in many circles. It may be a chemical imbalance in the brain, which can sometimes be readily corrected, but there is a stigma which is hard to dispel.

I was tested way late in life and found to be autistic with dd which means always have problems and need some support that is where my wife comes in and manages things.I have been back in diapers for along time.

I too have a mental illness, Depression. I struggled for years thinking it would pass. Now I know it can be diagnosed and treated with medication. It was tough to actually come out and talk to a professional and learn there was help available.

Brain injury and 2 seperate and unique PTSD issues.

I'm a bipolar one and a classic autistic savant. A rain man.
