You crazy brah

Just be yourself

how did you get diagnoied for that shit and did it help?

I used to have obsessive tenancies, but was given loads of anti-pyschotic medication and antidepressants and they seem to have gone now. Still over-think, and daydream about weird shit but I'm basically normal I think.

You have to see a psychiatrist/psychologist and be honest with them. You cant get a accurate diagnosis if you're withholding information out of embarrassment or to save face.

And a diagnosis helped me a lot. I was able to see symptoms in a very logical and clinical way and evaluate my problems more effectively. The mental and physical gains the past 2 years have been top notch since diagnosis.

Also even without diagnosis, a basic tenant of psychiatry is that verbalizing your problems can be healthy and the therapeutic effects of listening and talking are important. A lot of people "just get over things" because people tend to analyze their own problems and solve it on their own (when they can)

Also, normal is overrated. You just gotta be functional in society and happy. We all have our problems

I had a head injury a few years ago, and was diagnosed with depression/anxiety almost a year later after I was stopped from an heroing myself. Now almost 8 months later, I've found that after various meds, none seem to really help as much as the benefit I get from lifting and eating healthy. Quitting drinking all the time and eating right has done wonders for my self esteem. Hang in there bros, we're all gonna make it.
