jaxken5001 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 How many of you have went many many years and not ever gone to a doc to find out whats wrong with you aqnd come to find out you have a sever mental disability and what was it ? I am 39 and about to egt my first one. After 15 years of my wife asking em to visit a mental health doc. Im kinda scared they might find something wrong with me more then just my depression and anexity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudpuppy Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 Having a name for what youve been dealing with won't suddenly change it. You already deal with the symptoms- might as well get treatment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnneMarie Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I avoided seeing psychiatrists until I was 42. The only regret I have now is not getting help sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bpladybug Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I knew something was wrong for years, I even suspected I had manic depression. Now I wish I had gotten diagnosis and treatment sooner. Your wife might be on to something, go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxken5001 Posted October 27, 2010 Author Share Posted October 27, 2010 My problems began when I was a child my parents took me to see a t doc when i was about 7 years old for screaming and crying and pulling my hair out not real sure what he came up with at that time. My mother has passed so really cant ask her now. Over the years I have had lots of depresion and bad really bad dreams of killing people and these dreams are totally vivid. I think what really got me to decide to visit a doctor about two weeks ago i was sitting in the garage day dreaming about just going out and taking another person out that i didnt know out and the effects of this day dream was almost to real and the fact that it didnt bother me at all was disturbing to say the least. I have small anger issues as well that have come to fruitation in the last few years at my work place and I went off on two guys at work and beat the crap out of them both. I was kinda force to resign from my position even though I was prevoked according to the sheriffs department. No charges was persued. I have been out of work since july 2009 because I am scared to go back now. In 2000 I was diagnosed with depression and anexity and put on xanax for the anexity and on every depression med on the market but nothing seems to work. Right now I am also dealing with chronic pain due to arthritis in my spine and herniated disc and deterioting disc and facet joints which cause excessive pain theuout the entire day. On 40 mg of hydrocodene and 40 mg of muscle relaxers. Also a diabetic on insulin. Do you guts and gals thing the pain level can have something to do with the anger ?
