Do you have any condition/syndrome?

Other than some bad allergies sometimes, no major conditions nor syndromes.
 
I have MDD (Major Depressive Disorder), Agoraphobia, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, a super fun skin disorder and a super fun ovarian disorder and I'm like 98% sure I've got a scoop of Autism in there but I'm too old to get evaluated at this point.
 
Oh this thread brings back memories the thread where after reading it i was like "soooo RGT userbase consists of autistic people , people with depression , people who live on anti depressants? Oh yeah sounds like a fun group of people"
We are, but you gotta squint.
 
I'm probably somewhere in the spectrum, tints of form of anxiety, a level of general despondence. In the past, bouts of explosive anger. Nowadays I don't have the energy.
Is okay, good to know you mellowed a bit

I am Autistic, much like everybody else-

In all seriousness, I got diagnosed with Asperger when I was like 13, so I have the 'tism
and well, been suffering (is suffering the right word? whatever) with depression for like 3 years, and it doesn't seem to get better anytime soon::sailor-embarrassed

and I highly suspect that either some type of schizophrenia or ADHD as well lol, but it might be just me being a weirdo... as always.
oh well::pipo-monkey-eating
 
High level of ADHD mixed with partial OCD.....and caffeine makes me sleepy and alcohol makes me jittery. I'm so bizarre that sometimes i wonder if I'm even human some days.

I yam who I yam, ah gaa gaa
Caffeine in theory alleviates ADHD symptoms, that's why some people get sleepy on it
 
High-functioning Autism, ADHD and Major Depressive Disorder w/ Psychotic Features. The "psychotic features" was added because I started hearing a woman's voice whispering in my head about COVID in June 2019 and promptly checked myself into a mental hospital fearing I was having a psychotic break. It shut up by March 2020, and was more or less a psychotic episode in the same sense that reading the Necronomicon will give you knowledge that is practically indistinguishable from insanity.
 
I don't wanna make this a "mental health thread 2" but I forgot to mention here that I have anxiety and undiagnosed depression, and also difficulty to sleep
 
Just asking one thing: no self-diagnosis please. There are professional who will give you the right verdict and treatment.

Ok but lets not get this thread deleted/locked for rule 9
 
I use to think I had a little of autism, since online tests pointed this out and the symptoms made sense, so I went to a doctor and even if she was kind of sketchy (I had the feeling she didnt put too much attention on me since Im and adult, and stuff she talked when giving me the diagnose wherent said by me), she told I was just weird.

Anyways if Im or not, I dont care anymore. I still have to wake up every morning.
 
Not even going to start talking about them but i didnt get retired at age 34 for no reason still battling the government.
 
As most people on this forum apparently (lol) I'm autistic, late diagnosed as I was deemed gifted as a child and flew pretty much under the radar until adulthood, even if some therapists suggested it here and there. I also had pretty debilitating PTSD for a while there, but I'm way, way better now, to the point where I don't even consider I "have it" anymore.
Regarding physical health, I have Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, your garden variety hypermobility type. My joints give out pretty often, I have some annoying neuropathy on my legs, my heart is a lil' bit affected, and I need a cane from time to time, and lately a wheelchair for very specific occasions. Not the worst thing out there, I'm still able to be quite independent, remain fit, go out often and hold down a job.
 
i sometimes do think i have some sort of condition but never took a test to officially claim i do...i mean my health is good and there's no syndrome but i do forget sometimes, can't speak without pronouncing some words wrong, i learn slow at times but i still don't know if i have something
 
Dyscalculia. I was so bad at math in school. (but was the single best speller and reader in my school and probably read better in second grade than most middle schoolers in our very small rural community that was the peanut capital of the world) My biological father beat the shit out of me for having consistently bad math grades that I had to struggle like hell to get to a D grade. Never occurred to him to just get me tested for a learning disorder, no sir!

Just GAWD and a beating. Neither, to everyone's great surprise I am sure, made me better at math. Had my first full blown panic attack in grade four in Ms. Aultman's class on report card day. The full works kind, hyperventilating and ugly crying. Because I fully expected to be killed when I got home. I'm still convinced she altered my report card. She was an angel. Glad to have been there for her first and also simultaneously last year as a teacher. (it was not a great school system)

Ms. Aultman, I hope you are enjoying your twilight years on a beach with a drink with a tiny umbrella in it, grapes, and cute glistening pool boys in mankini briefs!
 
Both adhd and autism and other learning difficulties. i also tend to be extremely paranoid very often.

while its true that people are more aware of these things in the modern times its still doesn't mean that people actually care about what kind of problems we have or care enough to help us. so yeah. its a wonderful world for us to live in

sorry if this sounds extremely gloomy and cynical but i just cant say it any other way i have had way too many bad experiences about this.

Huh, I do sometimes drink coffee right before bed, and sleep very well. A habit I picked up from Nanny. (who got me on coffee at age five because she claimed it helped with chronic headaches and migraines which I have had all my life on a nearly daily basis)

Caffeine also is a vasoconstrictor, so in theory it also helps with headaches. But I am not a doctor, maybe I'm wrong
 
I grew up with and around family members with mental illness, one autistic with bipolar and one mentally retarded with schizophrenia.
It might be out of cope, but I did not shy away from using offensive language around them.
In my mind I wanted them to not be affected by mere words, maybe I'm wrong in my actions, and maybe karma will come to bite my ass in the future. Who can say really.::bigboss

Regardless of what awaits me in the future, I know I will miss them once they are gone.

Forgot to mention, I'm kinda diagnosed with dysthymia myself.
