Erica_6 Posted July 2, 2018 Report Share Posted July 2, 2018 Hello! I am a 30yo female. Lately I have been having some mental health issues, but I have also always been kinda sad. I always considered myself "the type", and accepted my all-present sadness as part of a package deal that comes with a passion for writing. I am now for the first time considering that I may have not been the type all along, but rather suffered from a mild depression pretty much all of my life. I have been seeing a therapist and, while beneficial, progress is slow. I am also planning to see a psychiatrist to get perhaps a more palpable diagnosis and a name for it. In the meantime, I would really appreciate some feedback (I have been reading up on a number of disorders , and my symptoms seem to fall into many categories). Chronic symptoms (or rather things I have felt over the yeas, but attributed to my personality): - frequent periods of sadness - oversensitivity - deep sense of insecurity, lack of self-confidence - feeling of emptiness and boredom (as if I have figured it all out, and life is meaningless, and now I am forced to finish it off) - feelings of guilt and shame - violent fantasies with myself as both object and subject Recent symptoms: - anxiety attacks - panic - insomnia - constant headache - irritability - crying fits I would appreciate any feedback; thanks!
