Have any of you ever struggled with mental issues, such as anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bipolar disorder, ADHD... or any other such problems? Share your experiences in this thread.
 
Hi Elvis. I changed the thread title a little, because ......it's a little offensive. I hope you don't mind.
I do have anxiety and such..... and it is bad. I don't really want to share that stuff because people don't really get it....and it's better to deal with this stuff by ourselves.

I had anxiety in highschool but one I left i stopped caring.
 
I do feel anxious quite frequently but not really that major. I just try to calm down and it goes away after some time.
I guess for me overthinking things makes me feel like that.
 
Depression comes once in a while. The last 2 years and probably even more has been a low point in my life and that's saying something. Still I managed to be a little bit more positive and it helps a lot.
 
hmm... this is a advice for all...
such things as anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bipolar disorder, ADHD ... i belive all humans felt/will feel some of them at a point in life, the important part is to understand 1 crucial thing... a point or a period in time dose not define you as a person... as humans we change constantly, i remember myself from my childhood and i would not imagined that i would change so much not in my belifs, but in how i matured ... and how i changed... change is not bad .. its scary but not bad and you can always change into something new if you dont like it... just learn from evry moment in your life,

i can say i felt depression more times in my life
 
Hmmmm
I experience a few of these from time to time especially depression but after a good melt down I'm usually back to myself lol
 
Just wana say to everyone here that if you need to talk or anything like that..we are all here for you and we all support you
:) ;)

That's the best way to avoid it.... I suppose.
But sometimes the stupid brain doesn't allow that....and then the nightmare continues ;_;

I know how you feel but it wasn't just because I left school, I pretty much stopped seeing anyone i went to school with so it just never seemed like a problem after that. Even now even if it is something work related I wont freak out over it.

No, it's not. Science shows that the "stigma" of mental health problems is contributing to an increase in suicides and is damaging to society.

You say that people don't understand? Well, make them understand. Break the rules. Tell your family. Gather them together in a room and tell them: "Yo, mom, dad, uncles and aunts, I have anxiety. I don't know why. That's how my brain is. Guess what? My brain is an organ. Just like my kidneys and my heart. Would you be ashamed if I had ill kidneys? No. Then stop being ashamed that I have an ill brain. I need to have it fixed. Are you with me or against me?"

Seek a therapist.

I don't think everyone is lucky enough to have people who understand them man. Why do you think people still go through rejections man?

Exactly
Not everyone is blessed and lucky enough to have someone that will always be there for them if they need support or just to talk to someone.
And not everyone will be comfortable with telling a complete stranger(psychologist) or social worker their problems. It's good to have places like this and others where you can talk to people and share your feelings and pain freely without having to feel like you are being judged and this is one of the main reasons that I tell all my friends even if it's an acquaintance that  I have just met, If you need to talk or just vent or whatever do feel free to contact me. It won't kill me to listen to someone just to help them feel like and know that hey you know what there is at least one person out here that will not judge me and will always support me

I didn't mean anything bad man.
But professional help can do wonders man. They know exactly what you are going through and medication helps too

I see

That's true but in this case the person must want it for it to work...makes no sense if they themselves don't want the help

I agree man but people don't know better.
They think they figured everything out but often they need help, even when they think, they are doing fine

Yep that's true but sadly even interventions can't help these people sometimes
We just gotta hope for the best in most cases I suppose and try to be there in case they need us
