Am I depressed or pycho

I have multiple medical conditions that keep me from doing a lot of things like running or even walking for a long time. Whe I started having symptoms in 1st grade we went to many doctors. They told me it was all in my head that I was faking it. Teachers and peers did too.
Now I feel bad all the time I hate looking in mirrors I feel fat and unwanted. I hurt all over all the time and people still don't believe me. I have cries myself to sleep for the past 2 weeks. But I can't believe myself that I even hurt or that anything could be wrong at all. I have been brainashed and now I don't know wether or not I am a faker or am in pain. I can't even believe myself! HELP!! Is it real or am I melodramatic?

OK maybe your parents don't understand because they are not going through it as well. it can be hard on a family if someone is always ill even when its no ones fault. Does your doctor help with things you can do to minimalized  pain and fatigue issues.Can you talk to the doctor about other issues that are a problem. I think it would be good for you to have a support person. I know its hard.  have you found the trackers on Medhelp (this website) they can help track your symptoms.

I do have a doctor that believes me about my medical issues but whenever I cry my parents think I'm just over done.

hey, only you can say if its real or not, if you feel it and it effects you then i would say its real. and i am sorry people don't believe you. it is hard when thing scan not be seen by others, like if you cut yourself people can see that your body response will be pain.  i believe you if that helps. do you know what is causing the pain? is it possible for you to see a doctor for a second opinion ? do you have any medication to help with pain?

let me know how you get on
