Considering that every time we discuss issues it’s much too late, I decided to currently muster all that I could think of into this document so read it OR ELSE! Whether or not you decide to gaze upon it is up to you but I felt I needed to do this so read it OR ELSE! Though the length of this is daunting and you will probably ignore it and say what the heck is this xD But you better read it OR ELSE! Now you’re getting it ;)
What you have are intangible barriers. You feel as if you cannot reach or even fully understand your problems so this whole situation is rather vague and stressful to you. One thing you probably don’t see that you tend to do is be a little overdramatic without knowing all the things that go into it (sorry but it is true xD).

Many people misdiagnose themselves due to similar definitions of two totally different problems. What you have is chronic stress and if not treated will turn into borderline depression. What you first need to accept is your difficulties always stem from yourself first. One thing I’ve noticed with many people is their inability to recognize how much control they actually have when it comes to their own thoughts and emotions. You need to take responsibility for yourself and that’s a tough thing to do sometimes. You can’t waste your life complaining about everything. One of my friends had an issue that she was fully responsible for and managed to spin every discussion we had into an excuse to complain about what she disliked about her life, other people, and the world at large. But I wasn’t buying it because I refuse to join people in their self-made prison of dissatisfactions. Consequently, this only makes people try harder when you don’t give into them validating their victimhood. But she was getting out of life exactly what she intended. She was a victim because she thought of herself as a victim. But I told her that she needed to make more time for herself without ignoring her …show more content…
In-between she takes a mini break something I do myself which is when you play a game for a little while to get relaxed and then go right back to work. It seriously helps me focus without getting bored. These are mini breaks so you can’t play for an hour xD But for like 5-10 mins is fine. And it doesn’t have to be a game you could listen to music, go for a walk, relax, eat, just whatever. But the point is you have to make time for everything without stressing and overwhelming yourself. If you want to get up early, do it. That’s frankly all there is to it. If you think everything is “too much work” then what are you even alive for because you ain’t going nowhere without hard work. It’s not right to complain over something that you have control over because you are allowing this to happen so it’s just irritating to hear at best. You need to work on you and until you decide for real that: I’m unhappy because I’m creating it. And if there is a problem I have to fix it; then you will always be in a rut. You have to step up to the helm and chart your own course. So until I hear I’M HAPPY AND I DON’T NEED MY GODPARENTS ANYMORE, WHY WOULD I SAY THAT!? xD Haha anyway for realz though, some problems need more work than others. Sometimes a kind word and some attention from a friend is all that’s needed to turn things around. But when this solution
I have never been diagnosed but researching this topic I have come to learn that I have all the symptoms of this disorder. I will not diagnose myself with this disorder but I will explain how I believe it is like to live with this disorder. Since I was about 12 years old I have suffered from depression. I become extremely upset at times. I explained above that people with this disorder have episodes of depression and anxiety. I have a recent story that is like that. I cannot really explain what brought it on but I woke up one morning depressed. I did not want to participate in the world that day. I had to even go to work that night and try my best to pretend nothing was wrong. My manager tried to send me home. I would not let him though because just like I am with all my other episodes, I felt worthless, like no one liked me, and that life would be so much better if I was not even there. I knew if I would have gone home like he wanted me to I would have tried to hurt myself. It is hard for me to live like that. I never know the way my next day will go. I have always been very emotional and I cling to people who give me affection. I do my very best to keep them in my life because they make me feel wanted. The majority of the time the way I act pushes them away though. I become very angry a lot. I become angry to what people say, what they do, or even just the most stupid things. I also feel some

Imagine spending months, even years, solving a problem you never had in the first place. Individuals with borderline personality disorder often go through this because they are misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder. Although bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder are commonly mistaken for each other, they have several distinctive differences to determine if an individual has one of these disorders. The biggest difference between these two mental illnesses are the symptoms. Since the symptoms are different, the treatment of the disorders is different as well.
Depression is defined as “an alteration in mood that is expressed by feelings of sadness, despair, or pessimism” (Neeb’s, 397). There are seven types of depressive disorders which are major depressive disorder, dysthymic disorder, postpartum depression, major depressive disorder with seasonal pattern, substance-induced depressive disorder, depressive disorder associated with another medical condition, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder. Each type of depression has it’s own criteria for a patient to be diagnosed under. Depression often goes hand in hand with anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, substance use disorders, eating disorders, and personality disorders (ATI, 97).

Definition Borderline personality disorder is a mental health disorder that impacts the way you think and feel about yourself and others, causing problems functioning in everyday life. It includes a pattern of unstable intense relationships, distorted self-image, extreme emotions, and impulsiveness.

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is estimated to affect 1-2% of the total population and 20% of psychiatric inpatients (Wershler, 2017), it is also the personality disorder most frequently seen in treatment settings. Even with borderline personality disorder being one of the common personality disorders that is diagnosed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V), it is still quite misunderstood, even by professionals themselves.
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders, Third Edition (DSM-III) listed borderline personality disorder as a diagnosable illness for the first time in 1980. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, borderline personality disorder, or BPD, is a serious mental illness marked by unstable moods, behavior, and relationships. This instability often disrupts family and work, long-term planning, and the individual’s sense of self-identity.
The diagnostic process for personality disorders currently covers a broad scope of various tests and symptoms, causing a source of frustration for psychiatrists (Aldhous). The symptoms and side effects of several personality disorders can tend to blur together, making diagnosis challenging (Aldhous). Most psychiatric patients are diagnosed with several personality disorders at once, with twenty percent of people with personality disorders simply diagnosed with a “personality disorder not otherwise specified” (Aldhous). Using the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health Disorders, commonly referred to as the DSM, psychiatrists attempt with great difficulty to categorize their patients into a specific disorder, only to diagnose

It took me longer than usual to start this essay, because I fell into a deep pit of self-doubt every time I tried. Whenever I start a personal piece about my childhood, my mind instantly becomes a hive of swirling thoughts in a cloud of static. No matter what I know to be true, the fear of having my mother discredit me severely impedes progress.
