Mental Health

You didn't get diagnosed with this current condition right after some shit with your Ex did you @Genics;

Women do fuck with your mental health, and do so deliberately. They try to use it as a "weapon" (psychological violence).

nah man, been dealing with this shit all my life. infact im not as bad as i used to be. obviously that kunt hasnt helped though.
 

dont do coke and on trt so dont have low test.

the program for bpd is at another private clinic and i will need to see one of there psychiatrists instead of my current one, so i dont really see him sending me there out of his own self interest
 
i was diagnosed with anxiety disorder in 2014 after my employer terminated my contract during a complaint; could not sleep properly for months.

But I have always been a stress head, but someone who always pulls through with will power and dealing with issue in a comprehensive way.

It is a fine line between feeling fine and feeling very stressed.

I hope you pull through.

have you had your estrogen levels checked?
 
This shit is more common than you think.. prolly not so much personality disorders etc.. but the umbrella term 'mental illness'. I think it's more prevalent than in our parents times due to the world we now live in.

I've got baggage. We all have to some degree.

Been to many a shrink and run many courses of medication. Have just started a new med due to some very dark thoughts creeping in again. Phucked up dreams etc..

And do you know the one truth that I've come to learn from all the cognitive bullshit they rabbit on about?

It's always only EVER going to be yourself that can pull you through the muck and chit parts of it all.

No pill, no positive self-talk and certainly no shrink that is going to be able to offer up that magic bullet.

I've come to realise there will always be a black dog at my side... it's how you deal with it that matters most.

Prolly not entirely relevant to OP's case, but just my 2c.
 

Feel you man, deep feels.
You'll feel lost for a while, but now that you know what's going on, you can begin to sort out your problems. Self reflection is so crucial here.
Find a psychiatrist who can really interpret your emotions and is good on a human level.
I also have a personality disorder and a fair few other mental issues. It's better to be diagnosed than undiagnosed, I was diagnosed between the ages 8-17 years.
Make sure they put you on the right stuff, they gave me the wrong anti-depressants for almost 5 years, which caused major mood swings and manic/depressive episodes.
If you ever feel the need to chat, you can PM me.
 
Good luck with it mate.

What ever you do don't listen to the fuck sticks here with their Google degrees saying "whatever you do don't take medication" and listen to the doc.

I have no idea what these people are experiencing, i know people closely that suffer with mental health issues and I'm in no position to make judgment calls or diagnose, but do you think that there is a possibility that a lot of GP's themselves could tend tend to over diagnose?

Maybe finding a good person/s to talk with over time could be more beneficial?
 

I think the specialists are in a better place to judge than guys off a bodybuilding forum.
 
Finding the right speshlist is like speed dating; as soon as you know you're on a dud it's time to say sayonara and move on to the next. A shit speshlist (and I've come across my fair share of those... lol'ed very hard at their cognitive ability let alone psychoanalytical prowess) is worse than taking general advice from a forum, even if its a bodybuilding, or mummieswithbabies one.
 

I would take my chances with a poor specialist over bros googling up shit on a bodybuilding forum any day of the week.

I would also guess anyone that spells speshlist like that is the worst person to judge if they are talking to a dud or not.
 
Haha look at moi, I am le poster boy for what happems when le speshlist mixes up moi good beans with dem nasty ones! Bad poor Speshlist kunt.
 
Proving my point by the looks of it. How do you accurately pick that you have poor specialist when you do not understand enough about the their speciality to make that decision.
