Hello!I've recently been re-assesed for my mental state. I suffer with clinical depression, GAD & OCD. I am currently being treated for my anger problems. Tbh, they can diagose you with something but they will never know for sure! Each mind is unique and each disorder is different in every person. Now i'm learning to control my problems, all I want to do now is help other people who were like me to get better.

My anger starts at every little thing unfortuately. I will get shaky then I will twich/tic and then go into 'rage'. I broke my laptop 2 days ago by accident and went into rage, took a hammer to my stereo and ripped my wardrobe doors off. So, yeah its not too good atm. If I get any worse, I tend to have small fits after.

oh damn. that is intense.
Do you dislike it? do you hate the relief you get after a 'rage'?

lol welcome to hxf..

eh diagnosed with depression at age 15 but my depression was only just starting then & also diagnosed with body dysmorphia disorder (a preoccupation with a particular part(s) of your body) at age 17, the only two times ive seen a psychiatrist lol. deffo had social anxiety but never been diagnosed for that. im over most of the depression, still get preoccupied with my looks but don't let it ruin me and i still have social anxiety to an extent but accept the fact that sometimes i will get shy but have to soldier on anyway!

seems like a lot but tbh they all roll into one, the bdd eventually led to avoidin people because of feeling too ugly which then led to social anxiety and further exacerbating depression. when i have my bdd under control (usually with a bit of makeup or being around good ppl!!) then i generally have the anxiety and depression under control too

It depends really, when Ive bottled my anger up its quite good getting it out.. When I end up fitting which usually means I head to a&e, i hate every minute haha.

my panic attacks are usually caused by worry or if something happens in a sudden moment, they too feel like my body is just caving in and i mostly break down and start crying because my mind is overcome by too many thoughts for me to handle. they literally feel like theres a tornado or lightening has just struck inside my stumach.

I think a lot of people on here can relate to eachother.. I do tend to get annoyed at those who don't understand though and think mental disorders are just for attention or they're just being lazy or something. It's tough to stop thinking the way you do - or stop actions that you're so used to doing (you don't even realise).

I'm one of these people though - if I didn't have a disorder, I wouldn't understand it myself. I genuinely feel sorry for people with these sort of troubles because I know the genuine sufferers can't help it. As I've just said to @Gina; my girlfriend's mum has a disorder and it's a very nice thing to have someone there who understands. Laura a lot of the time doesn't understand but because her mum's disorder is closely related I feel like she understands whole-heartedly.

I'd watch programmes on TV about some mental disorders and a lot of the time I could relate - I know how they feel about certain things.
