Bump
I'm turning 30
Life gets harder
I'm depressed and anxious
Not a single friend
Gf dumped me-took me 10 years to find someone to click with
>>707890886
I wish I got her pregnant so I'd have something...
Some connection..
We tried for a kid for a few months, then she started using drugs again and dumped me. I found out she was inviting her coke dealer over after I went to work the overnights shift.
I took her back.
She called me pathetic and dumped me...
>>707890750
>>security comes and asks me to leave because im spooking other people
I can't even imagine what the fuck you were doing at your table.
>>707890750
But what if they can help me?
I just want to be and feel normal and I feel so left out on life.
Everyone is getting an education, a job, friends, sex, girlfriends, family, their own place etc.
And I've tried all my life to just be "normal" and get everything I need to live a stable and happy life but I never make it
>>707891073
My mom and dad love me and are alive and well, so I can't kms.
I'm so lonely and scared of life.
I can't drink because I'm an alcoholic. I'm done with drugs for years now..
I pray for death
>>707889554
Odds for your doc being an idiot are far bigger than for you being a schizophrenic.
>>707889554
you can get lots of lovely neetbux if you're a schizo
>>707891117
Don't take that guys advice
But I would try and get a second opinion
You can also self-diagnose based on the dsm-4. Just google schizophrenia test. There are hundreds available online.
>>707889554
While I can't really relate to your feels, mine have to do with disillusionment and seeing the true face of certain 'friends' I thought I had.
>>707891113
me neither
i sat there, tried to act happy or some shit, smiling at people occasionally trying to invite them over
guess im a creep
>>707891117
there is a chance that the results of those screenings stick to you
that's not preferable when job-hunting
ask her to do an unofficial diagnosis of some kind
only pro thing about schizo diagnosis is the government salary that can come with it but thats nothing you live merrily on, really
>>707891304
Really?
I live in Cali. I can't get more than $1000 $neets a month, I think.
>>707891451
Where do you live that an employer is going to get records from your shrink or psychiatrist? Unless he's joining the fbi
>>707891213
I feel you man.. I hope you will be fine
And i hope I'll be fine too
>>707891399
Psychologist-fag here. I suggest you get checked. Online tests are not accurate.
>>707891623
I'm 29...
It's not getting any better
I'm waiting for cancer or something awful. And then I know I'll start appreciating life for my final few months/weeks. Life is cruel.
>>707890750
Wtf bro that's so fucking sad.
>>707891742
I got my BA in Psych.
Online tests can be just fine.
Just get a copy of the goddamn definition of schizophrenia and see if you got the criteria. It's not rocket science.
If you feel like you're worthless and shit, why not join the army and feel good about yourself by legally killing terrorist. Just sayin'
>>707891968
First, a person with schizophrenia may deny some symptoms present. How well can you say that he can self diagnose? Or is he just making a pathetic excuse to feel bad for himself/herself?
>>707891399
test said I did not have it
>>707891830
I'll be 25 tomorrow.. and everything is going worse at the point it's getting out of control.
But I cant give up, I'm not such a pussy
>>707891742
Im curious. Is there any way for a psychologist to help in regards to schizophrenia?
Im not OP but I recently got diagnosed with schizophrenia myself and I dont feel like my psychologist is really helping me in the same way that my psychiatrist is.
>>707891600
i dont know man, probably not jobs but in case of an arrest in the future, im sure they get a hold on those things
>>707891451
Fag with schizophrenia here. OP, I hope to god you don't have the schizo because if you do, prepare for your life to shatter and to never be happy again
Can anyone post any psych test. Thx
Normal is only depicted by societies point of view. Every culture is different and you have to decide what gives you have fulfillment in life not what other people expect of you. If you don't go to bars or like them that's not normal for you. What it sounds like your really struggling with is the path you want to take in life. Once you figure that out for yourself and get started things will start to fall into place but only you can take the first step

Heya, First of all. I'm 21, a neet, never had a gf never kissed anyone pretty much live a shit life. But, I recently got help I'm on sertraline and my mood has changed so much, I feel happy a lot of the time, my therapist is doing something called CBT, Don't worry anon, things will change I promise.
>>707892400
Bipolar fag here: life has been going downhill since 12 years old, I'm almost 30 now.
It gets worse and worse. I want to blow my lid off, but I'm waiting it out. I'll probably suicide by cop eventually when I lose my cool. Sorry in advance, guys.
>>707892645
what mood stabilizer and antipsych do they have you on?
Come deal meth for me in my trap house trust me ul pussy n really hot young chicks too and meth is fantastic
>>707892500
Nope.
I am on 20mg abilify a day at the moment, but they want to raise it to 30 I think.
>>707892237
Yeah.
No feel pics? i need to cry
>>707889554
You need a friend.
>>707892843
everyone's physiology is different but abilify didn't do anything for me, nor did latuda or risperdal. now on 600mg seroquel daily and i'm functioning really well.
Meds are the way forward. Once you are balanced a psychologist can help with coping strategies. It done work the other way around.
>>707892828
I can't leave my house most of the time due to anxiety. A family member sent me a bottle of Prozac.
I'm dying.
I need a doctor and therapy and friends. My girlfriend dumped me. I work the overnight shift at a hotel and I never see anyone (which is the only reason I can manage to keep this job).
>>707889554
>I just want to be normal
I empathize with you anon. 33 virgin. Seen therapists, still need to work on stuff. I've even lost 100lbs but... there is always something else to do.
And this is the one thing I wish I had told myself back when - take risks. Talk to people, take charge of your life. 21 isn't nearly as old as you think it is.
Godspeed anon. You can do it.
>>707892400
what do you do for a living?
how do you make money and stuff?
>>707892828
I used to take lamictal but I got a bad rash while titrating up and never continued.
I also tried some shit that made me cold and I felt dead, so I stopped that shit too.
I'm schizotypal. Go through with the screening and do not listen to anybody telling you to do otherwise.
The medication I was given helped me SIGNIFICANTLY. It was like a night and day difference. And that was only for schizotypal. What you have is even worse. Trust me, you will get so much better on the meds that it won't even be funny.
Here's something you should try. You can get a genetic test done to see which medications work best with the genes you have. I had this test done after we were failing to find a medication that worked without giving me side effects. After taking this test, the first medication they gave me had 0 bad side effects and I got much better.
If anybody here tells you to try and deal with your schizophrenia without medication don't listen to them.
It is crucial that you get medication for this if you actually have it. The medication will make it much more manageable.
Had to edit and repost this
>>707892626
good to hear youre doing better at least
i took zoloft for a year and a half, then switched to mirtazapine and citalopram which im currently on now for almost a year
neither have done anything but set my mood to apathy at all times
it fucking sucks, ive asked my therapist for something to help with my paranoia but she says therapy should be enough so ive just started pretending to get over it when im with her
>>707893136
Neither is 33. You can have at least a few decades of dope life if you want
>>707893272
Bipolar type 2 checking in...
I do that with all my therapists. After a while I get sick of hearing myself making no progress and I feel like a failure, so I start telling them I'm doing better and then just quit therapy..
med industry has been cultivated by pharmaceutical manufacturers into diagnosing this shit at the drop of a hat, when it's debatable if it's even *real*
if you're depressed, exercise more and maybe change your diet (more oils and shit for your brainz). work on life circumstances if it's situational. that's about it.
you almost certainly don't need pills, but you almost certainly will be proscribed them if you're gullible.
just do your research
>>707893272
Yeah, I recently came out as gay and am going on my first date tomorrow, I truly feel like my life is changing for the better. I really hope you guys in here can too, I know how it feels to wanna off yourself but please hang in there it'll be worth it

What did u take? And how much?
22 year old depressed guy here
Ever since I left highschool i've been falling deeper and deeper into this feeling of worthlessness and anxiety.
I've been home for 2 years now and i'm losing touch with friends and reality.
I feel as if everyone thinks i'm a weird freak and that everyone instantly dislikes me the moment I meet them. It's a horrible feeling and i can't get off it, having this feeling ofcourse makes people actually dislike me because i always feel uncomfortable, panicky and clouded.
I feel as time goes by, my mind is getting more and more clouded and unbalanced.
I'm too scared to look for a job or do anything but stay in my comfortzone and play games or watch movies/series all day long.
I beat myself all the time thinking about my past and how happy I was and how i'm so miserable now and i tend to cry multiple times throughout the day.
I sometimes get these random happyness outburts but these only last for a few hours until i crash down again and feel lost again.
i'm literally going crazy and I have no idea what to do to stop it..
What makes you guys happy? I'm just curious. It's
Sure as hell not complaining about how bad your lives are on 4chan, I encourage you to get help but I'm just some nobody your screen, just please at least try.
>>707889554
look for other shrink
she shouldn't tell you have something she only guesses. In what did she saying that helped you in your treatment?
During my teen years all my shirnks and psychiatrists were lame.
Had to move cities then I found this one in which im currently being treated by him for almost 2 years, and im almost 100%

Lamictal works good for me and my Partial Complex seizures. Lamotrigeine.

>>707895735
some of us honestly dont know what makes us happy
we havent felt genuine happiness for a long time
talking about it here is a way for to cope and remember that there are others like us
it removes the loneliness for just a while

That becuase school "forces" everyone to be friends, especially where I grew up since it's a smalltown.
Now I don't even know the people I was friends with for almost 10 years anymore
Everyone wants to get out of school as fast as possible, but now I wish I could go back

Complex Psychoanalyst fag here.
Fear is the root cause of all problems.
The opposite of fear is security.
Ask yourself, what makes you feel secure in a relationship.
For me, it is to have someone's time.
The easiest way to do this without years of schooling, torturing yourself and your family by psychoanalyzing them, and/or doing LSD; is by simply looking up what zodiac sign you are.
It just so happens that I'm a Capricorn, and Capricorn is characterized as "Father Time", BOOM- I need time in order to feel secure.
When I feel secure, I feel Love, rather than Hate.
Love conquers all.
Hope you guys get something from this.
>>707897524

nah lost my virginity this year and so far fucked girls a couple of times.
with the first one i stayed for 3 months but i just wanted fwb, she couldnt manage fwb and wanted more, then i had to "breakup".
With the second one i still talk but no gf material either.

schizophrenics on meds can live normal lives, those not on meds destroy their friendships and destroy their families. if she suggested it, it's likely because you are obviously schizophrenic. take the test, take the meds.

dont think people are judging you like you judge yourself.
do things you like, say whatever you want
dont think to speak. Speak
youre in this world to be you and not act in according to a script you created or that was pushed by other people into you

Not sure how to reply specifically, since I usually just stalk the boards...
But to reduce anxiety, first you must understand what it is.
It is the fear of the future.
Fear = illusion
future = unknown
So anxiety further breaks down to "an unconscious reaction to the unfathomable future."
Ask yourself:
Is what I'm fearing real?
If it is not, it is an illusion.
If it is, it is instinctual danger.
If you don't know, well... What's there to be afraid of? :-)

I don't leave my house
I have a doggo who I love and I just let her walk in my yard to use the bathroom
No friends at all
How do I stop being "that guy"
you know that guy in a group of friends that nobody really notices and is just there because for some reason people want him there even though they never speak to him or include him in anything.
They do funny shit and talk about stuff that you can't relate to or talk about.
And sometimes they just don't include you at all, like if they do something big like going out to eat or going to a party or a concert.
It's always like this when someone invites me to hang and no matter what I do I can't change it, it's like I'm just a prop
and everyone I've tried befriending have been like this, it's been like this since elementary.
It's been like this for so long that I don't know how to interact with people or groups because I've never done, I've just been there.
It's difficult to even speak to people, I get scared and anxious and I'm lacking a verbal ocabulary
I feel like a background character
I feel like I don't matter or take part in anything
I just don't understand how other do it
at least I have you guys, you're like the closest thing to friends I've had, at least I get noticed here

Actually, yes it is.
Most brains that suffer "mental issues" (which none exist) think they have a neurosis.
Yet, the irony is that the neurotic brain thinks it's neurotic. So, most likely, the brain itself isn't neurotic, but perceives itself as neurotic, which in turn, makes it neurotic.
To a brain that perceives itself as neurotic, this can get quite confusing, and can't take "simple" directions such as "change your look" or something vague and unfeeling as that.
>>707899214
I'm "that guy" too. I feel like it might all be in my head though. After all, my friends always invite me to hang out to whatever they're doing. I wouldn't invite someone who I'd see as a "prop".

>I have a doggo who I love
If you loved your dog then you would walk her properly so she can smell things and see people and other dogs.
Yet she loves you anyway, even though you are a lazy, self-centered twat. You don't deserve her unconditional love.

Neurosis cannot be cured because it isn't a disease. It's imaginary. But to the sufferer, it is totally real.

I have my family though but I feel so in dept to them, and they keep taking care of me and loving me even though I have nothing to give to them. I know they love me but I feel like such a failure and burden to them.
A 21 year old son/brother who does nothing but sit in his room all day and is scared of going outside.
I joke about this alot and I tell everyone I'm just staying comfy
I'm disapointed in myself but I'm too scared and unmotivated to change
I'm bi-polar I and schizophrenic, and jesus fucking christ this thread is terrifying. There's so much denial.
Anti-psychotics suck; I'm not going to try to sugar coat that. Risperdal sucks, Seroquel sucks -it all makes you feel pretty miserable.
That said, I would never go off my meds again, given the choice. As terrible as the haze and stomachaches get, in the long run, your life becomes so much easier if you take them as prescribed and follow-up with a good therapist (not just your psychiatrist).
They need to communicate with each other, otherwise it can be easy for your delusions to win out.
I spent years jumping on and off my meds, believing that doctors/pharma wanted to make money off of me, that it wasn't as severe as they said, and that my perception of the world was normal.
It wasn't until one bad manic episode that I specifically asked my current psychiatrist to hold me accountable, and he helped me find a therapist who could realistically see me on a bi-weekly basis. I started taking Seroquel regularly, started showing up to my therapist appointments, and re-enrolled in school.
For the first time in years, I showed up to every class, held down a job longer than 2 months, and reconnected with lost friends. It took a long time and a lot of self-realization (and medication - 400mg of Seroquel twice daily), but I'm finally financially independent, I have friends, and I have a degree.
Don't listen to the majority of people in this thread. Take the screening, follow up with second opinions, take your meds, and communicate.
Save yourself from a lifetime of misery. Trust me, please.

>people start making fun of me for not playing videogames
I can't believe this part would have been a big issue. If these are the same people as who made fun of you for playing video games, then they already knew you play it. If different people, they just wouldn't care. Unless for some reason you treated your non-video-gaming as a complete religion, where you had a shirt saying "I refuse to play video games", and you'd get angry / cry when someone mentioned a video game.
Fix yourself and play a vidya game.

What's your advice for a 30 year old with severe social and generalized anxiety disorder plus a major depression and at least one psychiatrist who thinks I might be (almost?) bipolar type 2.
I cant maintain friendships. I can't leave my house during daylight and at night I can only walk a few blocks before being overcome with fear. I never stick to ssri's. I'm a sober alcoholic and drug addict.
Help.

>>707900405
No, I wasn't clear. And I should have been. But enough people called me out for the op to have seen...
My point was just that if he wanted to satisfy his curiosity, to take an online test...NOT AT ALL to replace a professional opinion or help, which is precisely what he needs (and I need too, but I can't bring myself to make an appointment)

Seroquel is an anti-psychotic.
I feel you with prozac. The side effects were worse than with Seroquel.
Originally I tool 150mg bupropion daily with the Seroquel to help with the severe depressive episodes and crashes after mania. I no longer have to take that -actually living life helped so much with the energy and depression, but I had to work my way up to being only on Seroquel.
Complex Psychoanalyst fag here, the real one
I gave you advice. Having sexual intercourse can help you distract you. How you managed to have a partner despite your many problems is good. It's a a positive sign of hope.
Find someone else. Do what you previously did. I can give you more specific advice but I'm angry.

Forced to wear business attire, so I have limited options with my look. I make sure I keep my skin clear, get my hair cut, pluck my brows etc though so I'm not repulsive to look at.

Start saying "yes" to as much as you can. It might seem like no one's trying to communicate with you, but you might be surprised how much you automatically say "no" to. Long-term loneliness is usually a self-fulfilling prophecy

Years ago I had pretty bad social anxiety, especially when I talked with birds. (Don't even know why it came out of nowhere and to this day I get remnants of anxiety) To combat it I put myself in the mind set that you're superior to others around yourself (I know it sounds stupid but it weirdly works) Might make you seem like a duck but at least you feel less anxious to talk.
