I recently got diagnosed with all three in Jan but have had symptoms of all during the years. It explains why I do certain things and while I am glad that I finally got a medical professional to point them out, it's super sad to realize sometimes. That this is why I've been in the hospital so many times, this is why meds haven't worked, this is why I haven't been consistent with what I most likely need, this is why I can feel on top of the world for weeks and months and then crash and feel like nothing is worth it, etc.

It sucks when there are normal people out there that aren't dealing with mental health--or they are but are getting help because they want it--but me? No! I gotta be inconsistent with medication/therapy, crashout over small things, not like how much I weigh, and more.

I deserve to be happy. I know that I just don't want to do the work for it because it's too much and I'm somewhat comfortable with how I am now. It's just so frustrating.

Small changes at a time.
Try making a system with your medicine, like I leave my inhaler and spacer out after I use it at night so I remember to take it in the morning.
Even "normal" people aren't perfect!

focus on work or a hobby, this will fade to the back.

Does your doctor tell you to?

Doctor knows best

#

listen to your doctor

#

The way I see it, you are right at the edge of being done with your disorders. The meds should kick in after sometime, then it's just a matter of making a habit of it.

#

All that you've been diagnosed with, they're all from birth, right?

#

Please tell me if I'm not helping

any other health complications, besides the noodle

#

Aight, so, for now, just do what your doc tells you. No reason it won't help

so i know this will sound weird at first but just read the entire thing basically my mom works in this place where a bunch of people that have mental issues and just cant really care for themselves are living and the people there get great care and dont have to pay for it at all i feel like considering your situation of getting mad fast and all that just going to a place like this near you will help a lot if you try to stay somewhere else in a normal type of hotel or appartment building they just wont understand your problems and will just think your weird and kick you out in a place like the place i mentioned they will take care of you and age doesnt matter and maybe just going to theraphy whenever you feel like it will help you dont have to have a consistent schedule for theraphy just going through theraphy step by step even if its over a long period of time it will still help
