>tfw diagnosed with dysthymia
Am I just being a baby about it? Plenty of people have more severe depression than I do yet I still find it difficult to function and whine about it (online) a lot.
I know some other anons here have to have it.

How has it affected your life?
If it has seriously and persistently fucked your shit up in ways that an attention seeking normie wouldn't be willing to sacrifice then you can be reasonably sure you are not a normie.

I have it too. Basically have been down since I was a kid. Fucked my shit up good.
Oh hey I was originally diagnosed with this. Then they switched it to anxiety and depression.
put me on shit that made my anxiety worse.
fuckers.

>How has it affected your life?
I'm tired constantly. I'm also mentally and physically exhausted. I recently started uni and I'm barely getting by, I can't focus as clearly as I should in doing my work and I practically fall asleep in lecture and miss stuff.
Sometimes I have days when I lie in bed for hours at a time on the verge of tears, being unable to do much of anything other than browse 4chan.

Just because someone else has it worse it doesn't mean you're not suffering too. Just take things at your own pace and don't feel pressured to compare your situation with someone else's.
