I need help to get help

Posted , 2 users are following.

I've been having mental issues all my life and I've tried to get help but I never know what to say. I'm currently on Sertraline for depression but I think there's something else. I have the symptoms of mania and social anxiety but not for the episodes duration to be bipolar. I have other symptoms too like a lack of empathy and reckless behavior as well as really bad memory. over the years i feel like I've had part of if not all of the mental illnesses at some point so I'm really confused! I have a doctors appointment in a couple weeks to discuss further but I don't know what to say.

Any help is appreciated,

Thanks

    i have felt similar - and i chased answers. eventually diagnosed with aspergers, i also am certain i have ADHD which can cause memory problems. the two diagnosis' can also cause bipolar like symptoms and definite social problems.

    look into it -

    if you are female be sure to research females with ASD and adhd same as for a male because gender affects symptoms

    please dont give up.

    once you find yourself life will get so much better i promise
