    In a dilemma about life

    I agree with you! I think my depression is the worst thing that's happened to me. My OCD is currently controlled by medication. The autism unit deal with autistic people who have mental health issues and/or learning disabilities.

    In a dilemma about life

    I'm too self-aware of my mental health which makes it worse. I know I don't feel right because I used to feel happiness. I just want to be happy again and I don't feel happy anymore. Things feel different. No offence, but I hate when people say "you're intelligent", and then dismiss my mental...

    In a dilemma about life

    I don't feel mentally ill because it's all I've known for so long now. I know people go to university quite late in their life, etc. I will consider doing the image board. Thank you.

    In a dilemma about life

    I know what I want to do with my life (in a sense). I want to go to university and become a comic and/or concept artist. I don't think I'm in the position to travel to different countries alone at the moment.

    In a dilemma about life

    Hello everyone, So basically I'm in a dilemma about what I should do with my life. Let me explain. Here in the UK when people ages 15 to 16-years old leave school, they usually go to a college. Every September a new lot of students join college to do a multiple subjects (A-Levels), or one...

    Mild psychosis - psychotic depression?

    Why would you find that? Sure, there's some annoying and creepy people into Japanese culture, but there's a lot worse things to be into.

    Mild psychosis - psychotic depression?

    Thank you for your comment. I've never heard of "earthing". I'll take a look at it. That's interesting about the Japanese researcher. I do try to get out as much as I can but my foot hurts really badly. Sometimes it hurts less than other times. I haven't been to any Comic Cons. I would love...

    Mild psychosis - psychotic depression?

    Thank you for your comment. When I experienced this episode of psychosis (at least I think it was psychosis), I was very depressed and on hardly any medication. Also my OCD was so severe that I couldn't function - I felt very suicidal at that time. Now it's like I've got more insight, but I...

    Mild psychosis - psychotic depression?

    It's really hard to get an appointment with the psychiatrist. I've been to the emergency room before and they just don't care.

    What do you mean?

    Mild psychosis - psychotic depression?

    I have tried telling the psychiatrist, but I don't think he really cares. I know you're right at the end of it all, but I can't seem to shift these thoughts.

    Mild psychosis - psychotic depression?

    If I recall correctly, I think I did tell them when I was under CAMHS, but I can't remember.

    Mild psychosis - psychotic depression?

    Hey people, I'm quite a complex person. I have autism and OCD, however, I think I'm quite severely depressed. I'm on medication - 60mg of Prozac. It's works well for the OCD, but not so much for the depression. Also I'm extremely overweight as well, so that could be contributing to the...

    Binge eating - can't stop eating

    Thank you for your comment. It's funny because I haven't been obese my entire life. It all started when I was 13-years old and was in secondary school. I think it was a mixture of my mental health, bullying at school, and the winter season. It started as comfort eating and dealing with my...

    Binge eating - can't stop eating

    I just don't know what it is, but I'm sick of it all. Thank you though.

    Binge eating - can't stop eating

    I wish I had friends because I don't have any. Yes, I've tried telling the doctors so many times, but the only one who listens is my GP, and of course he's not a psychiatrist.

    Binge eating - can't stop eating

    Thank you for the welcome! I think it's like you said, it's a factor of many different things. I just don't know which one it is. My weight seems to fluctuate all the time. Some days are better than others. Some days I can eat really well, but other days are a lot worse.

    Binge eating - can't stop eating

    I'm pretty much always stressed due to my mental health. So that would make sense. My local mental health team don't understand autism because they don't treat autism. I've had blood tests for diabetes and I'm not diabetic or pre-diabetic - thank goodness. Oh I see! I will try to avoid those...

    Binge eating - can't stop eating

    Thank you for the welcome. I'm on antidepressants for my OCD, I think I'm depressed too, but it's not working for the depression. I think my depression could be linked to my weight though. I've been on these antidepressants since I was 9-years old. Unfortunately I don't and won't be getting a...
