:Need to know if I have probs; HELP

Go to Depression

Ok, look today I only wanna know if you can help me figure out if I have something like depression or enxiety.

Syptoms:

Depression

- For about 3 weeks (give or take a few days), I felt so crap. It was a no cutting time (as I cut) but I don't believe that triggered my emotions.

- I tried getting drunk on some wine and I've never done that before. Never ended up getting wasted. But I just felt so crap.

- Pretty much all those days I felt crap for no reason. I wanted to cry and be alone.

- I'm not sure where these emotions of nothing oculd've come from. It's not like I had heaps bad days or anything.

Anxiety

I hate it when people look at my side profile because my nose has a bump and now I get constantly worried about people looking at it and judging me.
- I have toruble meeting new people
- If I have to do public acting/speaking/etc. I freak out and feel like crying and being alone.
- I don't like leaving the house to meet friends
- I don't like going to town and going shopping unless I'm with my friends or cousins or I feel unsafe, scared.
- I always think about what other people may be thinking of me
- I perceive my looks (like my ears that stick outm crooked teeth and bumpy nose) to be much worse than how other people perceive them.
- I never ask for help when I need it in class
- I don't talk much with people I 'sortof' know
- I always feel embarrassed in public and want to go back home to be by myself.
- I can't smile in front of some people because my teeth are crooked.

Please, I just need a diagnosis to know if I'm ok or not. :[

Hello ,

Sorry to hear you going through a tough time not knowing whats wrong with you . I suffer from a form of depression but there not as sure yet till they have done further dignoses .

It must be very frustrating for you as well . From what i have read its hard to say what your experinceing because you have alot of symptons with depression and axienty together so it will be hard to tell . My Advice would be try and get to your GP and tell him/her your smpytons and they can refer you to see a speicalist which will be able to deal with this alot better , if you find it hard talking face to face you could also write it down and take it with u to your GP . Also you may want to take ur mum or a freind this will give u support im sure people do care about you and they would like to help and support u through this tough time .

Hope this helps!

Take Care

hey

thankyou for writing that message, going on your thoughts i think you are suffering from a lack of confidence and self esteem, anxiety is symptons of worry fear,chest pains out of breath but anxiety can be brought on by stress and if your really worrying its a way that your body copes i suggest you seek some help just to talk about your self esteem and try do things that will increase your confidence level without confidence there's not alot we can do it does make us low and worry over the smallest things, depression also has symptoms like,

so if you feel any of the below please speak with your doctor.

hope this helps
