because i have depression and anxiety so i tend to not believe ppl right off. And if u have to ask in that way then maybe its a mistake i joined this forum
I have depression and anxiety as well. Doesn't cause me not to believe people. That is a personal thing and not a result of depression or anxiety.
And i have seen a number of others on this site with the same conditions.
See, you have it set so no one can ask you anything, because asking you a question you take as an insult. A person asking if you are having trouble understanding has NOTHING at all to do with someone announcing you have a mental disorder. It is completely unrelated. I guarantee not one person in that room saw that question and thought 'oh she has a mental disorder'.
And you do seem to have a problem understanding, which, again, is not a depression/anxiety issue. It's an issue of you being demanding, defensive and impatient.
Believe it or not, not everything in this world is intended as an insult against you. People are not mind readers to interpret simple, reasonable questions as announcing you have a mental disorder.
And really having depression/anxiety is pretty common and i have yet to meet someone who treated it as so shamefully as you do. I have had depression for 26 years, so i know what it feels like. I know the struggle with it. I know the sensitivity that comes with it. But it sounds to me as though you are using your depression/anxiety as a weapon against others and a way to justify how you feel.
I have had anxiety in the past too, having anxiety attacks when i was homeless. My then gf at the time had gone through bad anxiety before i did, so i had to spend hours a day helping her through anxiety. My most recent gf had anxiety and i would often have to help her through it. And i've known others who had it as well. I've known others who deal with depression. So i'm not ignorant of either condition.
Any mental disorder can be used as a weapon, but it won't help you. As a person who has been where you're at i can tell you with first hand knowledge, learning not to treat everything as an attack will make your life much better. Stay on the site, don't treat your condition as such a shameful thing, or as a weapon to hold people at bay, or to excuse your behavior. Relax. Slow down. If you ease up you will find there are people who will enjoy your company. People that will think well of you. But you won't be able to do that if you get offended over every little thing.
