I was just recently diagnosed although Ive known for years how i felt. Its all a process and you have to be ready to make that commitment and take that step. I personally understand with the family and them not being supportive of taking medications or maybe mental health. But at the end of the day you need to do whats best for you and then you will see things will start to get better. There’s no rush you will get that answer when youre ready😌

my best advice is to just got see a doctor, it’s really not helpful to diagnosis yourself! if you need medicine, they will give it to you, and everything will turn out okay!!

Also depends on whether you need medication in the first place

yeah I’ve talk to people in my school because we have doctors and psychiatrists at my school we also have counselors and they said that I probably would need meds I’ve also told the doctors a little bit and they said that if it gets worse or lasts longer they’re going to put me on meds or something I just haven’t told them everything

when I get my own place and I do stuff on my own I would definitely tell a doctor or go to a psychiatrist.

The last time i felt this way i gave in and got meds from my doctor. Those really helped

it’s complicated, but my family is not that supportive of me taking meds. I mean they kind of don’t like it that I’m taking meds now for my asthma and other stuff.
