Diagnosis is generalised anxiety and depression so I'm your run of the mill mental case. But I feel like theres more
Excuse the poor grammar and rambling, I'm higher than a motherfucker and thats the only way I have confidence to type this
To start with I feel like I have a committee in my head constantly telling me everything possible at once about a situation.
I tend to see situations in a different way from my peers for example I'm finally on the benefit and my friends and family see that as a success where I saw it as them trying to kill me by holding my application from me.
I could be just sitting there mindlessly watching an interesting youtube video when my world is turned upside down and everything is dark and I only see the rope as being the only way out.
I'm sure I'll think of more
I never had a hard upbringing (Didn't starve or go from paycheck to paycheck) but my Dad had anger issues and would constantly yell at me. I would say my school life had your usual high school problems like I had trouble completing homework and constantly battled with teachers
Things didn't go wrong until a few years ago when my Dad went in for a normal checkup when they found a mass in his head and upon further inspection it was a tumour and if he went any longer he would die so they operated and Dad died a few times and had to be revived. This apparently caused issues and instead of being a basic op turned him into a serious stroke like patient. Right around this time I was just about to travel to another country by myself for the first time and I really battled with staying by my Dad or leave and I chose to leave. That was a mistake and I had to spend hundreds just to fly back.
Because of the stress and pressure of Dad, I dropped out of school and work because I was unable to keep up and could barely keep my head above the water and that was 3 Years ago.
Since then I have been in and out of work with the longest period being now and thats a year.
I started smoking weed New Years last year to quieten down the voices and give me a breathe of fresh air (hah) It started with 1g a week to an oz a week. I know its bad for depression and anxitey but I don't know how else to survive because if I didn't have that break then I would most certainly be dead.
I have a girlfriend of 2 years and the best group of friends I could ask for but I feel like they all hate me and haven't yeeted me yet because they wouldn't know how to deal with it.
