basically ive had a very hard life, suffered psychological and physical abuse, bullying etc – psychological abuse prolonged throughout years..
ive missed out on all the normal things in life, – relationships, work, education etc.
i have a criminal record 8 years ago, been in a mental hospital 8 years ago.
alot of bad things have befallen me – ive lived in my own apartment now for 5 years , been seeking help , trying to better my life….control my rage outburst that used to get years ago.
i live on disability and have hardly any possessions.
years ago i was diagnosed with borderline personality, im still struggling to get the right help and therapy , even after all these years – the mental health services have failed me in general ..
i also suffer with post traumatic stress disorder, i have all the symptoms, but ive not been diagnosed and need to get it diagnosed..
im now 31, my psychiatrist feels i dont have any other disorder or illness , like bipolar and all my symptoms cover borderline personality..
but i feel i have other disorders co existing that are going undetected with the BPD……..i see my psychiatrist tommorrow where i plan to raise this topic again.
i know i have ptsd as well as borderline personality that needs to be assessed and diagnosed , but i worry also i have ADHD and bipolar ?
heres my symptoms that ive had years :
mind racing everyday , scattered, muddled , disorganised thoughts.
- struggle to focus , cant hold onto a thought , 100 thoughts flooding my brain at once.
- forget things i thought of moments before – my head feels pressurized with the racing thoughts everyday .
- mood swings everyday , 1 moment in depths of despair, severley down , then to feeling ” ok ” the next minute.
- feeling angry, sad, worthless, hopeless , , lethargic, no energy to do things , wash dishes etc – quick to become enraged and aggressive.
-worrying constantly about the same things everyday , : physical health , my future , no hope , death, feeling trapped , traumatic past – obsessively worrying about it.
- feel jumpy ” panicky ” ” on edge ”
- get brief euphoric feelings , ” shortlived ” back to despairing and depressed , no energy , no energy to do chores, tidy up etc, clean my teeth etc.
- feeling like i have no future , ” theres no hope ” – hopelessness – feeling trapped in present situation.
- bad anxiety throughout everyday , phoning health helplines to check out physical symptoms ……thoughts racing wildly.
- constantly feeling my minds never at rest .
- racing thoughts everyday constantly worrying about everything – my physical imperfections , my 2 missing teeth etc , present situation , physical health.
- struggle to concentrate or focus , read a page of writing.
- racing thoughts , scattered thoughts , mind going blank , feeling disorganised and jumbled up – cant hold onto a racing thought, forget things a few moments later .
- still fight anger , rage feelings especially when outside in public – get ‘ reminders ‘ ‘ flashbacks ‘ ‘ paranoia ‘ ‘ reliving ‘ painful events , thats when rage takes me and i have to fight very hard not to lose my conduct.
- filled with panic , palpatations , very bad anxiety at same time, whilst outside.
- when i get racing thoughts feel very volatile to losing control of rage or losing control of conduct , have a feeling of feeling ‘ out of control ‘.
struggle with conduct still and rage emotions.
- startled responses , jumpy reactions , difficulty controlling rage feelings ,
- feelings of being ostracized by society , alienated by people , the systems against me.
- nightmares most nights , recalling past memories that resurface , bringing rage feelings and grief.
hypervigillant outside , hyper alert , on the defensive , get flashbacks – on edge all times when out.
- space out whilst outside , get dissocociation.
used to have rage outbursts and act antisocial towards people, lose control of rage involuntary and lash out -
controlled those outburst for years.
basically there all my symptoms , now i feel i have other disorders as well as ptsd and borderline personality, like ” bipolar ”
but my psychiatrist and mental health team dont thinks so, so what should i do tommorrow when i get the same reaction ?
