Those aren't even real mental illnesses, you're just being a little bitch. Make this thread again when you're at least schizophrenic.

>Those aren't even real mental illnesses
Here we go again.
>Avoidant personality disorder (AvPD), also known as anxious personality disorder,[1] is a Cluster C personality disorder recognized in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders handbook as afflicting persons when they display a pervasive pattern of social inhibition, feelings of inadequacy and inferiority, extreme sensitivity to negative evaluation, and avoidance of social interaction despite a strong desire to be close to others.[2] Individuals afflicted with the disorder tend to describe themselves as uneasy, anxious, lonely, unwanted and isolated from others.[3]
Depressions not an illness, you just need to get over yourself and cut out those elements ( family members, problems) out of your life
Started taking liquid Prozac. What should I expect?
I don't get it.
>You know it is in your mind and that you are the only one who can fix it (yea, it is hard)

>You know you can become a different person by changing habits

Try Shrooms anon. Helped me a lot with major depression and anxiety. Made me think so fast and at the same time so happy, thought of the potential I posseee and made me eager to do something. Also maybe try Adderall or Welibutrin, helped with ADD and Depression.

Changing habits
>Try to chance your habits while suffering from mental illness, come on.
I admit it is hard, but you can start easy. I believe my first step was to start looking strangers in the eyes when I commuted to school. I had so little confidence I couldn't keep eye contact for 1 second before I started.

>Mate, mental illness has physical symptoms. That has nothing to do with that. READ SHIT PLEASE.
I never claimed it didn't have physical symptoms, but instead of focusing on symptoms you should treat the main issue.
Bleed you

>Please, read just a little about the causes of depression, Anxiety or schizophrenia.
You might want to check the definition of "mental illness" before you claim it isn't in your mind

You are just searching for excuses

>>25942428
>What WORKS?
Nothing works. But SSRIs will fuck you up even harder. If you're going to take a placebo, fine, just don't take an active placebo.
>Hypercusis
Don't taking anything but literally every sound that I don't create triggers me. There's a weird humming / engine noise that starts every so often and since I'm in an apartment block I don't know who it is. Last place I lived I started banging on all the walls and ended up pretty much collapsing on my bedroom floor wishing I was deaf. When I visit home I can't sleep at the front of the house any more because passing cars make me anxious and angry.
Who here /existential angst/? For some reason every time I think of something I always associate negative vibes with that thought. It's hard to explain and might just be more obsessive anxiety though, I don't know.
Anyways,

>>it isn't curable when you're bipolar
Why me
social anxiety
venlafaxine 225 mg, only ssri/snri that worked for my anxiety. now i can do things that normies do too casually
>>25942702
I also want to know more about SSRIs, I used to take a few of them like a year ago throughout my childhood.
What's so bad about them?
>>25942894
That fucking pic is me in a nutshell. I'm sure I look like shit either way.

>I think there were a couple more
Things shrinks have 'considered'
>ADHD
>autism spectrum
>schizotypal personality disorder
>schizophrenia
>everything in the fucking DSM-V
The whole fucking system is a joke, these are nearly all meaningless overly broad labels used to categorize individuals that may or may not have some definite underlying physiological cause to their distress.
however
I've taken 4 different SSRI's, 2 different antipsychotics, an SNRI, an NRI, some atypical stuff like buspar and trazadone as well as klonopin and gabapentin
the only one that has done anything good is the klonopin, (the gabapentin is ok for anxiety, not great)
some of the drugs gave me psychosis, disrealization, some made me experience hallucinations, some gave me 4 hour panic attacks, one made me constantly hypertensive, some of them made me suicidal and one of the antipsychotics made me unreasonably angry.
I think I've had just about enough of this psychiatry shit
anyone have any suggestions (besides exercise, already started working on that)
>>25941080
I have Depression and Anxiety
And I take Cipralex
And I might get what you call atuism bux or some other benefits.
Anyone here get dole form Anxiety?

>Bipolar I
Been hospitalised for psychosis. The manic-depressives and the schizos are on another level of fucked up. You inhabit a bizarre parallel world of psychiatrists, hard meds and wards.
Generalised anxiety and panic attacks come with the territory. Psychiatrist doesn't bat an eyelid any more, just asks me if I need some lorazepam or something. I'm barely functional on a good day. Also, I'm scared as fuck of benzos.
You motherfuckers who keep going on about "mental illness" isn't real and "pills are a scam and just fuck you up more" please kill yourselves. This shit is literally saving my life.
Taking every day:
>Depakote 1000mg
>Lamictal 300mg
>Wellbutrin 300mg
>Seroquel 300mg
>>25942950
>venlafaxine
A psychiatrist at a state hospital once told me they call venlafaxine "rocket fuel" around there. Heard the side effects are hell, but I must admit I'm intensely curious as to how well it works. Hopes aren't high for a manic-depressive to get prescribed some, though. If I hit mixed at this point, probably will end up killing myself.
>>25941080
>risperidone
Ahh, anti-psychotics. Our long-term relationship is... complex. What dosage were you on? And I'm not trying to be funny, but are you legitimately autistic? Because risperidone is usually prescribed to treat aggression in children with developmental problems, notably autism.
>>25941239
>at least schizophrenic
What counts as more ill than schizophrenia?
>>25941080
>depression

>not a disease, but i also have issues controlling my anger
Taking escitalopram and prazepam right now.
It's pretty much nothing compared to you guys
i have actual schizophrenic auditory and visual hallucinations
>>25944629
>rocket fuel
"california rocket fuel' refers to the combination of venaflaxine and mitrazapine
they have some effects that are believed to compliment eachother
for example, mitrazapine antagonizes ht2 and 5ht3 , which are the subtypes of serotonin receptors that tend to be the most unpleasant (5ht2a is associated with depression and schizophrenia, 5ht3 is associated with nausea)
it also antagonizes alpha2 adrenergic receptors, which in turn causes an increase in neurotransmission while also lessening the vasoconstrictive/hypertensive effects of norepinephrine. This also causes an increase in 5ht1 agonism in certain parts of the brain
so the combination of the two causes increased serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain while also alleviating some of the negative aspects of this.
it's still bullshit that doesn't really work for depression, unfortunately
>>25941080

Trichotillomania
>Taking/Took
I get strapped down to a table and have lithium injected into my neck daily.
Try a mix of Prozac and abilify. That worked when when a laundry list of others didnt. 40mg amd 15mg if you're curious.
>>25945552
That's interesting, but I think it may be coincidence. I was talking about a state mental hospital in South Africa. On the other hand, if there were any psychiatrist I've known likely to prescribe a tetracyclic antidepressant, it was that guy.
>>25945326
Cool, what is your voices' style? I usually have multiple, shouting but not talking to one another, not particularly intelligible. They're worse at night, they can seriously surprise me when I'm trying to fall asleep.
What are the visuals like? I don't get much, just some twisting about, keep making out all sorts of shit as people sneaking around with no pattern.
Any paranoia? I tend to think people are poisoning me through everything.

Undiagnosed bpd - misdiagnosed bipolar
Not that it matters

I went to McDonald's yesterday, the walk alone was brutal and it was hard to eat because there was some older drug addict lady that was kind of attractive and probably wanted to fuck. My hands were shaking while I while I unwrapped the burger

I definitely get into more fights than anyone on this site. I get very difficult to be around. It's hard to be in a relationship
>insecure
>probably narcissistic personality disorder
>intermittent sex addiction
I usually just get blowjobs so it's hard to say sex, but I can be in a happy relationship and if I'm near a slut, I will grope her. I get intense anxiety around women if I'm with a girlfriend
>95% shutin neet
>>25941239
I get intense neurosis (periods of mild psychosis)
I wind up on jail, I've woke up the hospital after drinking and getting jumped, I've hospitalized multiple people including my ex. I get into 'frantic rages' wherein I can start to think the government is messing with me
i've been seeing a therapist and she seems to think i have avoidant personality disorder

I say I just like fires.
Really, a few fires here and there aren't bad, they aren't hurting anyone. Who cares if I like starting fires?
I mean, who doesn't enjoy burning stuff?
Thou I did hear on /k/ that mixing octane 93 and styrofoam then stuffing it into a 12 gauge shell can create burning shit everywhere.
It wouldn't hurt anybody to shoot off a couple here and there. Or setting off a huge array of fireworks, all inside metal tubes hooked up to the back of my pick up!
I know.
Packing a shopping cart full of fireworks, and cover it with a cardboard cut out of a car. Cover dat shit in gasoline. Set off a fuse connected up to all those fireworks. Push that shit down a hill.
That would be cool. The thought of that pleases me.
