I've been browsing the internet, posting here and there, trying to find answers. But everyone says that I'm just experiencing depression. I'll list pretty much everything I feel;
I feel tired all the time, I rarely crawl out of bed unless I have to. I spend hours browsing the internet for symptoms, sometimes just to reassure myself that I don't have a condition. I am always trying to find something to worry about, I don't even want to. I can't control that. At really low points, I can go days without eating or having the desire to. I don't enjoy my hobbies such as hanging out with my friends and gaming anymore. I feel hopeless. The only time I feel ok is when I can go to sleep. I look forward to that. I dwell on things more than I should, to the point where it becomes obsessing. I feel trapped in my own thoughts, as if I can't escape my mind. I rarely feel good, but I do have a few high points where I feel decent. These only last for a few minutes to an hour. I try to savor them. I just don't feel 'normal' anymore. I sometimes feel like rolling over and crying. I hate being alone, and yet I hate being around people, it's weird. Sleep is hard to come by, I find myself worrying for hours on end when I'm trying to drift to sleep, and often can't sleep until the sun has already come up. Even when I do sleep, I can't stay asleep. Maybe a few hours, then I'm up. Even when I'm tired, I can't get my mind to stop long enough to go to sleep. I don't like doing anything, I'd rather just lay in bed. I prefer the dark, and quiet. I tend to avoid going outside if possible. I feel rushed, people want me to do things, and I just feel like I need more time. When I look up symptoms, I always assume it's the worst possible one. If it's not severe, I don't have it. I have frequent headaches, before this year, I NEVER had a headache in my life. I often forget small details. I have trouble focusing sometimes. Once I find something that matches a few of my symptoms, It sticks, I convince myself that I have it, no matter what. Sometimes it's something that I can't go get checked at the ER either, these are the ones that torment me the most. (ie Mental Disorders) Even when I lack some of the major symptoms of a illness, I can still have it if 1 or 2 lesser ones match up. I often rehearse what conversations with someone would sound like in my head. I feel as if I'm going to go crazy any day now, and that terrifies me. Nothing makes me happy anymore.
And that's about it. I've convinced myself that this has to be something worse, so maybe some of the people who have been suffering can share some advice or maybe give me some tips.
