MentalHealthProblems

Hey Guys, I have several mutual symptoms with those qho have bpd and I definitely think that I might have it because it affects my life very much. The problem is that my parents say it‘s something about my age (18) or I need to do sports etc. They don‘t understand that I struggle with an identity crisis, self consciousness, dear of abandonment and being in a relationship is one of the hardest things ever!!!.They think its my hormones but I feel like this since I am 16. when I look back I also knew that I wasn‘t the most normal child and I could say that my childhood and teenage year weren‘t easy at all because I had to cope with an over extremly monitor parent. I am seeing a psychiatrist now but because I heard a lot that my parents think its normal, I always ask my self if I‘m really okay but them I am not and its shiftig hour to hour and its making me crazy.
I actually want to get diagnosed to feel understood so my parents see that I was right and get maybe more attention from them because it seems like they dont care about my mental health.
I know it takes its time to really know where the problem is but how can I patient or know more about my condition?

Today is the 3rd day in a row where I have been living in my pyjamas.

However, I am not counting this as a warning sign for another psychological break but instead a sign of recovery.

I have never been in the habit of changing into “normal” clothes (as normal as my clothes can be considered when you own a pair of awesome Adventure leggings ... amongst others) if no one is visiting me, and I have no where else to be.

I know that still sounds alarming but as an #Autistic with plenty of #MentalHealthProblems I don’t always want to associate with other people, so I stay at home quite comfortably with myself.

After all, I can experience enormous amounts of stress and subsequent fatigue on my own and without outside forces.

So every now and then I have a pyjama day.

I relax with my chosen Podcasts, and my cats; do a little house-keeping; have a bath; change my pyjamas; and then continue.

Admittedly, having several pyjama days in a row is unusual but I am still wrung out from an entire weekend of #SocialMasking combined with finally being on the upside of 2 months of #Insomnia and an 18 hour stint of #emotional #Psychological probing needed to file a PIP assessment form.

Frankly, my brain needs the isolation right now.
