What disorders do u have?

I have adhd and that has made learning difficult for me. It also makes me very figety excited and impulsive to the point where I think a lot of people find me annoying. It’s taken a while for me to accept this about me and I’ve found friends that accept it as well which makes me so so happy.

does anyone else have disorders that they’ve had to learn to accept?

I have ADD (No H) I also was diagnosed as anti social whatever that means

I’ve been diagnosed with OCD and I’m sure I have some kind of anxiety disorder (but I don’t want to self-diagnose that).

Depression and anxiety disorders both. Ugghh. But i have been gaining a handle on it over the past couple years. Still have my bad days tho

None… as far as I know

Dyslexic. Mostly was just made to feel like I was bad at reading and writing at school. Always feeling so awkward struggling when I was asked to read stuff out load

Wasn't until I started college (in the UK) that they had a test to diagnose it. By which time I'd kinda learned to deal with it. But also the lecturer I had there helped me to realise I was actually rather good at writing, just ended up occasionally muddled up words and letters in places, and needed a little help pointing them out (as you can't check something is wrong if it looks right to you in your mind)

Social anxiety. I’ve cancelled plans because I get anxious and nervous being around new people.

If I get nervous I stammer a bit. It doesn't happen when I'm singing but if I'm having to speak in front of my class it happens.
I also have something called nocturnal enuresis, which means that I sometimes wet the bed because I don't wake up when I need to wee.
Like everyone else who has posted here about conditions I just cope with them because there are far worse things I could have and what I've got isn't like life limiting or anything like that.

omgosh! My cousin has both those conditions too. She gets very frustrated with her stammering and stuttering. I feel bad for her because she gets made fun of by idiots. Kids can be so mean.

Nothing diagnosed by a professional but I believe I suffer from depression at times.

Not surprising. I was reading somewhere that girls are more likely to suffer from depression. It might be worthwhile to talk to someone. *hugs*

I knew exactly what you meant when you did girl. No worries

Thanks for the advise! That’s one of the reason I joined a forum. Not necessarily to talk about my issue but to just talk to other people in general. Seems to help me at times

There are some 'depression surveys' which can be self-administered and scored and they are considered legitimate my the pros. Let me know if you'd like to take one and I'll look them up for you. But really, it doesn't matter what the diagnosis is; if you have issues you think you should get help with, I encourage you to do so. Lots of resources available.

That's interesting. I saw an old interview of a singer (I forgot who, some male) who had a non-fluency problem when speaking, but sang perfectly.

So with the pandemic and all the crazy restrictions we had where I live I ended up with depression, but I'm a lot better now than I was. I ended up going to see a therapist for it and now feel pretty good about things. They chalked it up to isolation. For a long time, I couldn't even see my step siblings and that was killer for me because I consider myself a pretty social kid.

Glad to hear you're doing better.

The pros are still trying to assess just how much psychological damage the pandemic has caused.

That's great news, Collin.

Keep on it.
