I feel like I've been pretty open about some of my issues on here but I may as well go into more detail.

I have Severe Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), which manifests itself in the forms of panic attacks, disturbing thoughts/delusions, and dissociation (which is basically where you don't feel "real" or that you're observing yourself from the outside). I was also previously diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder but that may have been an incorrect diagnosis, as I have some possible warning signs of Bipolar Disorder. If I do in fact have Bipolar Disorder it's Bipolar II, which is distinguished by an absence of fully manic symptoms and psychosis, as well as more pronounced depressive episodes. I experience periods of increased energy, irritation, and impulsive behavior which is why it's now being considered, and I also had symptoms of mania that were triggered by being on an Antidepressant (which is fairly common for Bipolar patients).

I am also symptomatic a reproductive health-related issue.

More minor issues I have include frequent back pain, migraines, acid reflux, and a reduced sense of smell due to a possible nose fracture. I also have weak enamel due to having two sets of braces when I was younger.

There is a way out. Just not for you.

Mostly just brain stuff. Social anxiety, OCD (primarily obsessional), "high functioning" depression, and ADD. I might have generalized anxiety disorder but I don't think I experience its symptoms on a regular basis.

I've also got chronic tinnitus, which is a persistent ringing sound in the back of the ear. Usually caused by exposure to loud noise and/or hearing loss, but mine was anxiety/stress-induced. It was tough getting used to it, but now I basically don't notice it.
