    I hate it when people self diagnose OCD and ADHD to appear quirky or cool. It just shows that these people are so insensitive towards people who are actually suffering from these disorders.

      I agree. I visited a phycologist cause my mom believed I had ADHD cause I was having trouble in school and was inattentive and daydreamed a lot. I was never diagnosed but now I'm older I still remember when she told me not to long ago I'm weird for someone who has OCD cause I didn't clean a dusty corner. After I looked into it man, it seemed like someone wrote my secret habits down I keeped to myself and talked about in my daydreams

      people who pretend to have adhd to be quirky piss me off so much. thinking its trendy to have a disorder like that. i literally cannot function with my adhd. it is disabling in many cases. theyll be like. oh having adhd is so cool. then you tell them the reality of thing like saying, executive dysfunction has stopped me from brushing my teeth for over a month, and theyll put you down for being gross over something you have no control over. theyll be like oh yeah im so adhd. then get confused when some of us are crying over an essay because we in a room with someone else whos simply breathing.

      Okay so it isn’t about ADHD or ocd, but i still feel like i wanna add something. (But first. Let me say i totally understand that people who do just want to be quirky exist, and that self diagnose Can still be offensive. I just wanna say it ain’t Black and White) Because people who self diagnose doesnt always do it to be quirky.
      When i was a kid, i hat Big problems with sleeping. I was always scared before bed, couldn’t lay down for more then around 20 minuttes i Think, before haveing to look through my room to check everything was okay, and it was verry common for me to go crying up to my parents, because i thought i and/or everyone i loved was going to die. At the time my parents Said that i had anxiety, but looking back, i dont know if that was the case. I dont deal with it anymore bow that i am older, i havn’t heard anything about someone who have something simular, and since i have met people with stuff like social anxiety, i dont know if i was at that level. However, what i also know is that even if i didn’t have it, i dont regeret calling it anxiety. When i was Young i HATED the idea of being weak. I didn’t wanna depend on other people, and feeling like i needed protektion was something i was too pridefull to let myself feel. So when it all started, i was really harsh on myself. I saw myself as weak and pathetic, just because i couldn’t sleep in a room alone. However, that changed when my parent started to Call it anxiety. It felt like an excuse, a reason to accept these feelings and giveing myself a break. Of course i wasnt as brave as other kids, They didn’t have what i have. It helped me accept ny feelings, and that is verry importent if you wanna deal with Them.
      So yeah, that was my novel. I just wanted to say that people who self diagnose, dont always do it to Seem quirky. Instead it is a Way to deal with feelings that They have trouble with, and so They dont run around thinking They are weak or broken. Instead They might just want something to lach on to, to help Them accept themself.

    I think many people with depression or anxiety think that it's just their character traits either because they've been suffering from these disorders since early childhood or because they've lost definition between the times they were "fine" and at what "moment" exactly they were not anymore, either from being in pain for too long or from the fact that you don't crash into severe depression in one second. it usually breaks you slowly.

      ( Hi I’m Kaya, I’m 16 :,) )
      I feel like I might have depression or anxiety, but I don’t know if me having the “depressive episodes” is me really having them or just being lazy and sad or upset about something. 2 years ago I felt so empty and depressed I wanted to tell my mom that I just don’t have the energy to live and saw no point in existing (that was around march) and then I also remember feeling really empty and depressed for a whole month in march last year and having my first panic attack. I had another one 10 months later- also in March. It’s like I’m almost perfectly fine all year and then when feb-march hits I get at least one panic attack out of nowhere when when I’m happy or “chill” and have depressive episodes, but I don’t want to talk about it with anyone because I feel like it’s not actual depression and that making it a thing will make me upset because I just don’t want help.
      A few months I feel great and live life so much and then a few days of me being depressed and wanting to be alone, hits. But I feel like what im experiencing is .. normal??
      (btw. In march last year it got so bad, that I was crying in the bus with my, at the time boyfriend almost every day crying into his shoulder. I felt so useless and hopeless and the relationship was to stressful because I didn’t want him to know what I was going through.. so I broke up with him at the end of march and didn’t exactly tell him why because I was embarassed.) but now it’s not like it affects me daily and when I have an “episode” that I can’t function normally. Yes it is hard to do school or even just eat or wash, but if it does get worse over time.. we’ll see.

      I completely agree with you, I have ADHD and take meds for it as well. Also with the food thing I experience that too, something I’ve found that helps is to set times to eat and keep a water bottle by you as much as you can, and with focusing I’ve found setting timers and seeing how much you can finish in, let’s say 20/15 minutes, then trying to beat that. I don’t know why that helps but I really does, at least for me. I hope any this helps!

      Hey Ann, I hope this isn't intrusive and I don't know if you will see this because your replies are disabled; I hope you do regardless. By the sounds of it, it seems like your mother/parents have been emotionally neglectful, even abusive, your entire life.
      In recent times, there has been recognition of an up-and-coming disorder named 'CPTSD', which is essentially PTSD but repetitive trauma that comes from years of persistent abuse and/or neglect.
      C-PTSD can lead to executive dysfunction (which causes procrastination), loss of identity, loss of social and physical appetite, attachment issues (i.e. you feel threatened in your real-life environment and cannot connect with people), etc.
      The thing is, it CAN and WILL mimic mild-moderate-severe depression and/or anxiety, so I really hope you look into it as you have stated that even with your diagnosis, nothing has changed.
      I would recommend you look into the book 'Complex Ptsd: From Surviving to Thriving ' by Pete Walker to better understand if this may fit your case; you can download it from PDFDrive online. I will attach a link to it as a separate comment to avoid spam (or whatever).
      The longer you persist with the pain, the deeper you dive into 1 or 2 of the following responses: a) a freeze response, where you can dissociate and get numb, become a couch potato and want to stay home all day, find solace in the internet/online friends
      b) a flight response where you get away from the environment that causes you trauma and suppress thoughts, develop anxiety, etc.
      c) a fight response, where you become more aggressive and act out on others around you to deal with your trauma
      d) fawn response, where you people-please to fit in with those around you and to compensate for emotional validation people like us never got in our childhood
      I'm sorry for what you've gone through. I know what it's like. Finding a good therapist is incredibly essential to treat whatever underlying issues you have; I'm still struggling to find a good one without blowing my entire wallet. If you, or anyone reading this, feel you can relate to this, please don't feel afraid to reply to my comment asking what steps you should take for currently feeling stuck.
      Sending you much love and I really hope you look into this.

      Memory is so unreliable. Memories change way too easily. When trying to remember some event, you are not remembering the event itself but the last time you remembered th event, which means that each time you do it there's a risk you lose part of it, and none of your memories are 100% accurate

    You do NOT have to be shy to have Social Anxiety Disorder.
    You CAN be a social person and still get Social Anxiety Disorder due to for example constant bullying over nine years. It might then make you seem shy but there’s such a huge difference between “I can’t leave the house because I have panic attacks when I try or start throwing up from the anxiety if I do” and “oh holding a presentation in front of class makes my stomach feel funny because people are looking at me”

      @@-Solidwater Have you talked to a professional about it? Because it’s not like you can’t be shy and have social anxiety to a lesser extent than complete isolation from people, having anxiety attacks from holding presentations sounds like more than just shyness. Nervousness can develop into neuroticism that leads to anxiety even “without a reason for it” (there usually is one but you might never know why, a lot of the time it’s hormones and why being a teenager or pregnant makes people “act weird”)
      Panic attacks also don’t necessarily look like what people think they do, they depend heavily on your fear response and if that’s freeze, then becoming paralysed is pretty common but usually not very noticeable. I mean just because I can be completely frozen and “gone” during one, before getting out of that state in one way or another, doesn’t make them have less of a debilitating effect on my life. Sometimes people do actually fight during one, that’s why trying to touch someone having a panic attack can make them attack you and talking to them calmly about whatever harmless thing you can think about is the recommended option for dealing with someone having a panic attack

    All my life I've been called "oversensitive" and had a rough time finishing projects. Several months ago, I delved into the MBTI tests, researched cognitive functions and learned that I am an INFJ. Things made so much more sense after reading about that personality type! Then a couple months later, life got excessively crappy and stressful. Sensitivity, anxiety, insomnia and forgetfulness became debilitating. I just got diagnosed with ADHD and apparently need meds now. I forgot where I was going with this.

    So glad these videos encourage seeking professional help with mental illness. Mental illness needs to be treated just as importantly as physical illness. Those of us who grew up in a household where we were told to just "suck it up", "you have nothing to be depressed about" "you're just being selfish and lazy" " you're just doing that stuff to get attention" "you better act right and not be a bother to people" etc.... found ourselves on the hamster wheel of damn if you do and damn if you don't among family and friends. In my case my survival and healing happened because of my faith, and it led me to take the steps of growth and action of understanding and what I need to do to feel better. I'm not where I need to be, but thank God I'm not where I used to be!
    Every one of us have very special gifts and talents put in our soul to be significant in the world, a purpose of helping others and ourselves. Having a mental illness is journey to navigate, not be condemned for or shunned for.

      Exactly. A lot of serious mental disorders have been dramatised as a result of some TV shows among other things and whilst it has helped to remove the stigma surrounding mental health, it has also caused some people to take it less seriously.

    I wish videos like this had been around when I was younger because I'd have probably reached out for help sooner.
    I'd always just assumed that I procrastinated because I just wasn't much of a go-getter & that I was shy. It was only at the end of 2019 when I had a complete breakdown (having just graduated with my masters & with no job lined up) that I ended up being taken to see a doctor by my mum and was diagnosed with clinical depression & social anxiety. The subsequent therapy that I've been through has helped me to realise that they weren't really personality traits but symptoms of mental health issues that I'd been suffering with from childhood.

    So much of this I identify with and I feel such a sense of hopelessness in overcoming. I have been diagnosed with ADHD and my psychiatrist thinks I may some bipolar issues. One thing is that I am working towards trying to live a more normal life but many things often come to the surface that I have no idea how to,deal,with. My psych only controls my medication and isn’t paid to give me counsel.
    One thing that’s bothering me lately is the fear that I am needy and attention seeking. I recently posted something in a FB group of my favourite band and it was a post from the lead singer of another band that he sent to me. I wanted to share this other bands music and reposted the message sent to on the FB page of my favourite band. The mods took the post down because they thought it was a “look at me and see what I got” attention seeking message. I guess it did come across like that but it wasn’t my intention. However Infind I’ve been doing this all my life with the need to be recognised … as a boy I was called a show off when I took my brothers guitar to a friends house … i was a scruffy little urchin when I was a boy, my clothes were dirty and ripped as my dad couldn’t afford many new ones. My mum died when I was 8 and I suffered so many negative experiences that destroyed my self confidence and happiness. I’m 57 now and feel so overwhelmed with so many symptoms, the self worthlessness, the lack,of motivation, the struggle,with just getting out of bed, unable to motivate myself to exercise and therefore put myself at serious risk as I’m weighing in around 16 stone with a height of 5’ 7” … feel so hopeless at times,es although I know I have made a lot of progress since diagnosis 5 years ago.

    Thank you so much for making this video, you guys! As someone with clinically diagnosed social anxiety and dependent personality disorder, I can personally say that many people- without intending to- misunderstand and downplay what mental disorders really do to a person. If I'm overly anxious at a party, I'm told to "lighten up" or "chill out"... and if I physically can't make a decision alone- such as choosing what to eat for dinner- many people react with straight annoyance. The thing is, I can't help it- and they don't understand that I have no control over things like that. I think most people who suffer from mental disorders fight similar battles, in this regard- and unless somebody experiences them for themselves, they will never understand what it's truly like to have those demons on their back. This video does a perfect job of explaining what to look for in a disordered person, and how to accept and understand how those disorders affect said person in their day-to-day life. Thank you so much!

    My narcissism and severe lack of empathy: *Yeah, we don't really do that here.*
    Also narcissism sucks by the way. But mine is tamed down because of my social anxiety. While other narcissists may be loud and damanding. I subley hint that I'm better than others and don't care if I hurt others to get what I want. I didn't even realize I had it till recently and thought about how badly I may have hurt others. Except whoops. My lack of empathy. I know it's wrong though so I'll try to stop but not because I feel bad. Because my perfectionism makes me want to be a perfect person, and I hate being called out for my flaws and causing drama. Which will happen if I'm rude to others and brag about myself. But at least my mix of perfectionism and Narcissism makes sure my grades are high constantly because I need something to be better than others to make sure I have a worth. So there's my benefit.

    im surprised the part about adhd wasnt about laziness. a distracted personality can be confused but in most cases, were less likely to be seen as just a distracted person, but instead lazy. because of our executive dysfunction making it hard to start and finish tasks along with getting distracted from a task and procrastination we get blamed for laziness so often. i struggle with severe executive dysfunction symptoms from my adhd, and before i was diagnosed it was always: quit being lazy. you have so much potential you just need to apply yourself. just try harder. why wont you do what needs to be done. to this day i hate being called lazy, even when im actually being lazy, because of how much ive been called lazy while actually trying my best to do things

    @SlaySoulSister45 3 роки тому +2

    *Disclaimer* I'm not trying to self diagnose here!!
    So I've been worried for a couple years now, that I may have adhd. And at first when I would think this I'd just tell myself "no, you just get distracted easily, you're fine." But then at the beginning of 2020 I downloaded tik tok, and somehow my fyp became full of ADHD tik toks (which I know isn't always accurate information), but after watching several videos of people with ADHD talking about their symptoms and struggles, I started to notice that I heavily related to a lot of them. So that's when I started watching videos on youtube about ADHD, and doing a little more research. And every single time I watch another video where they discuss "are you just distracted or do you have adhd?" I always relate to the adhd side significantly more than the other. But then I started talking to this guy who had adhd, and I asked him what it was like, and told him that I suspected that I may struggle with it. I just wanted to hear his point of view, so I could understand it better that way I'm not still thinking I have it, if I don't. But he told me that I don't have ADHD because I do well in school, so it's not possible, and he said that I'm not spontaneous enough to be dealing with it. The thing is, I have to work 10 times harder than all of my friends, just to get the same grades as them because I cannot focus on the teacher's lessons while she's teaching it. I will literally sit there and try to repeat every single word in my head and still my brain won't comprehend it. I have to review and learn everything by myself and on my own time. And a lot of the time it feels impossible to get myself to learn it because I know how hard it will be, so I just push everything off until the last minute because its exhausting trying to get my brain to work correctly sometimes. Anyways, I don't really know what to think. Sometimes I wonder if my dissociation and trouble concentrating isn't a symptom of ADHD, but rather ptsd from my childhood. And maybe I relate to so many of the ADHD symptoms because of other mental illnesses that have the same struggles. I guess I just don't want to go to a professional about it because I've had multiple people struggling with ADHD tell me that I don't understand them, and that there's no way I have it.

    Hello! Can I suggest an idea? I am either way so yeah- I keep feeling guilty for this.
    Can you make a video for compulsive liars? Or just liars in general?
    I lied about who I am and got friends because I lied, I stopped everything and apologised to those friends. But then, I kept dwelling on that, they forgave me and they said they liked my personality. But now, I've realised that being friends with them brings me back unwanted memories and I can't forgive myself.
    My sibling showed me an example to try to help me. They said "Your shirt is blue." my shirt was turquoise so I said "It's turquoise but yeah." they said "No, I lied to you." then said "Do you forgive me?" I said, "Yeah. That doesn't help me what I lied about wasn't that minor." then they said "Yeah, that's how minor it was to them though." and that helped me alot.
    But now, it keeps reccuring. I can't forgive myself and I question why I deserve happiness.

    I can pretty much say that everyone has at least one disorder, even if you don’t notice it. I have a learning disorder, and even though there is no cure, there are things you can do to improve it. When I was a baby I didn’t start speaking until 3/4 years old, which is very late and the doctors once said that I had autism, but later confirmed I never had autism in the first place and I was probably a late bloomer, but instead said I have a learning disability and I will never be able to write an essay. I was also a very slow learner. Everyone else in my age at the time could read/write correctly, and I couldn’t do any of these things. Fast forward to today, I’m in high school and my grades are in high 80s/90s, and I can read more fluently than most people, but also I did indeed write many essays and got good grades from them and now I’m all set to go to college. Now I’m just any other school student that blends in with the others. So what I’m saying is that don’t let your disabilities hold you back, because I went from not being able to read proper and write proper, to being an A student.

    3:06 is me for most of my life at school and I unwind and reflect on what I did that day to help calm myself,but i couldn't let my guard down at home now cause of either my parents or my sibling barging into my room and sneaking up behind me, not giving me time to prepare for a civil conversation, then I lash out even if I try not to, then they accuse me of hiding something even tho I'm not, now I feel like my room isn't safe anymore even when my door is closed because I'm just waiting for one of my family members to slam the door open, now I stay up late at night just to feel comfort in my room where the door is closed at a time when I am sure that no one will come in and disturb me. I also didn't get a lot out of therapy since I was careful with what I said, since I was afraid that the therapist would tell my parents.

    Question for anyone possibly scrolling past my comment, and no, I'm not diagnosing with this, just curious.
    Do you think I'm shy, or possibly have social anxiety?
    I've always been quiet and reserved, but it goes to an extent where I won't go to anything social for weeks to months at a time until forced out of the house. My mum volunteered me for a kid's event and I had to sing and dance and get excited to encourage the kids, which I was not told, and I just couldn't. I wanted to get out, but wasn't sure how, and I still had 3 more hours and then another 3 hours every day for 4 days. Once we exited that room I managed to get to my mum but she didn't seem to understand why I so desperately wanted away. I felt like crying and my heart was speeding up, I just wanted to escape somehow. She told me to talk to the head volunteer about it, and I managed to get off, I got put in the toddlers room instead and it was better but I was still very uncomfortable and immediately regretted agreeing, I was fine though.
    I sometimes try to speak and I simply can't, no words will come out.
    There is one place where I'm not scared, when I go to the ranch with the horses I'm so much happier and more comfortable, I've been told I'm a different person there. I still don't talk, and if directly talked to I kind of freeze depending on the person, but I'm fine there.
    Kind of long, so for anyone that read that, what do you think?

    I’m super glad that Bipolar Disorder is getting the awareness that it’s getting, and the differences between someone with Bipolar and without. I don’t feel like people talk about it enough, and don’t take it seriously when they say that somebody else is bipolar when really they’re just talking about general moodiness. As someone that had a father with Bipolar disorder and grew up with him my entire life, it always gives me incredible second hand annoyance at the complete obliviousness that people have when talking about serious disorders such as this.
    Thank you Psych2go for doing what you do and bringing awareness to all things mental, you’re helping a lot of people in doing so.

    This actually helped me understand way better . I came here because I figured maybe I had something cause everyday people keep asking me “What’s wrong with you” “why are you always in a bad mood” why are you always mean?” And it makes me more upset which causes me to lash out at them and then they just think im a bad person/Friend. This happens especially with one of my friends whom always ask me to get them something. Whether it’s a highlighter, a pencil, the paper we were supposed to grab- I tell her “Get it yourself!” And then in a bad mood for the rest of the day . I automatically get in a bad mood all the time just randomly- on day I’ll be happy the whole day and then it just goes down hill for the rest of Week. I thought it was just my personality changing and me just getting older. But the more I think about it the more I worry about it . I’ve also noticed patterns in how I think. Some days i tell myself , Should I eat breakfast today? Should I eat lunch today? And other days i tell myself, I wish I could get both!! Because I’ve been struggling with my weight and I’m super insecure about it but no matter how much I tell myself I shouldn’t stop eating I also tell myself “no, you need to eat!” My parents try to make me feel better by telling me “Your not fat at all honey, did you know muscle weighs more than fat?” My dad says it a lot. ❤ it makes me feel somewhat better but the only times I fell good at school is when lest say, the own time in ELA when I was the only one in my class to get masters (and only missed one question +The best score) out of my entire class. I was super proud of myself that day. But I switched ELA classes because my teacher wants to become a principal so now she’s just a super visor and studies and stuff. It’s not that my new teacher is mean , not at all she’s super sweet . It’s just the kids in the class… they get me a bad mood and then I’m in a bad mood just like that. As soon as I walk in , automatic frown. Dunno why though. And when I speak do some odd reason I speak when everyone else is also speaking and then everyone silents and looks at me . Idk why.. it’s super strange and just makes me mad. I’m gonna stop typing now cause no one is probably gonna read this.

    Also, if you’re wondering why I thought her mental health has decreased, it’s because she told me she wasn’t planning to live to age 30, she procrastinates on so many things, isn’t the same as I remember her from before quarantine, and, well, she grabbed a pair of child-proof scissors, in the middle of class, and scratched her arm with it. There are many other things that make me worried for her mental health, as well.
    Now, if you ever feel unloved, alone, or any of that, please know that there will always be someone out there for you!

    i was misdiagnosed with major depressive disorder for 3 years because i thought i just had an impulsive personality. when i finally ended up telling my psychiatrist about my silly "impulsive moments", he explained how hypomania worked and that i might have bipolar disorder. turns out-- yep! and it makes a LOT more sense than me having mdd.
    the reason it wasnt found out sooner though was because i was being treated for mdd and taking multiple antidepressants to help my depressive episodes, but it in turn made my hypo/manic episodes turn to almost complete numbness due to an overproduction of neurotransmitters. which in turn had me taking higher doses of antidepressants since i thought these were just strong episodes of breakthrough depression. we've since lowered my doses by a lot and i'm now taking a mood stabilizer along with them which is helping so much better lol

    in my early grade school, i thought that i had ADHD, because i often was distracted from certain things, then a little after we looked into it and concluded yes. but later i noticed that i only get distracted on the things i just cant do in school, because i already tried WAY to hard, and the more i try, of rather fail, the more i got distracted. instead of being distressed about it, later i would ponder on that behavior. It didn't seem to me like i actually had ADHD, so then we did some more tests. they said i could have a mild autistic disorder, and i kind of though that it cleared some things up. but then i go and talk to people and write about things in life and realize just how fluent and persuasive i am with communication. this doesn't really happen for people with autism. I did a personality test, an actual personality test. It had a ton of very specific info on the kind of person i was. It wasn't vague in the slightest, yet still hit almost all my marks. Then i later saw those traits in everyday life. Those "problems" i had as a kid were to me at least not based in any disorder. I can be a little different at times, but that doesn't mean i have a disorder. I then realized i got the notion i had disorders by my classmates, and family. That then lead me to fit that description. I think this might be the same for other people, even if they do have a disorder. I had a friend that was granted pretty shy, but overall she didn't have problems talking to people as far as i could tell. It was after friends and family said she could have social anxiety that she became less social, and that lead her to have actual anxiety. Being told there is something wrong with you is not a good way to fix it. often times it can worsen the problem.

I really lack that energy to accomplish the basic tasks of a normal productive human being.

    Edit:
    When I was little, before I was diagnosed with autism, a lot of the kids at my school were diagnosed with adhd. If you did badly in a class? ADHD. You didn't pay full attention to the teacher? ADHD. You seemed to have a lot of energy? ADHD
    The only reason I never got diagnosed with ADHD (Which I don't have) if because I did well in my classes and the teachers liked me. Looking back it is horrible that my school and county went by saying that if you have ADHD you cannot do well in class or in life as a child.
    I am not in the buisness of self-diagnosis but often I find myself relating to symptoms that link to major depression or depression unspecified disorders, but I dont know how to begin talking about it with my family. I am 19 years old and there is depression in the family, but I still dont know how to begin the conversation. If anyone has some advice for me, I'd appresiate it a lot.

I don't intentionally forget things, I don't ignore my parents, but often times they ask me to do something I say sure, then I get hyperficused on something else, like playing video games or making maps for dnd, rather than do the thing I said I was gonna do.

APD and ADD have parallel symptoms with each other but APD is an inability to process sounds like other people and it effects the way people think when noise are present. Discovering the difference after so many years, I was able to tackle it effectively by training my weakness when dealing with noise levels, asking people to dictate clearer for you and finding a quiet place to concentrate on work that requires thinking.
