Is there something mentally wrong with me?
You're normal, within normal range at least. I do this too, as does my husband. My husband physicalizes it, he kind of twitches when he goes over embarrassing thoughts, and I verbalize it like you do. We try not to do it in public, but sometimes it slips out.It may be connected to neurological issues. My husband and I have extremely light autism, not diagnosable and nothing noticeable, but enough to give us slight neurological glitches which may include this one. It may also be because we both fit in the category of "highly sensitive people."My husband and I would be considered quirky, and I would put you in that category as well. I think other people play over embarrassing and awkward scenes in their head, but they have a little more control over how they externalize it. You have to try to laugh at it, but I admit it's a lot easier when you've always been around others who are a little bit quirky too.
I feel like there is something wrong with me, mentally. I’m afraid my trust issues and anxiety are going to damage my relationship. Does anyone have any helpful advice?
Thanks for your A2A, but the answer to this could go in many different directions and, considering my schedule over the next few days, I won’t have time to cover them all. Also, responding to this without any decent information, is like writing blind. Can you give some more information about exactly what your trust and anxiety issues are?Who don’t you trust and what happened to bring about this effect? Does this come from a betrayal at work or in your personal life? What, if anything, have you done to address the betrayal?What are you anxious about? Has this increased over time and how exactly does this feel? Do you get panic attacks or is this ‘only’ emotional/mental?How long have you had these issues, have you had any treatment and how did it go?
I'm very slow, mentally. Does this mean I have something wrong with me, or is it just how I am?
Perhaps the only thing wrong with you, would be the feeling that something is wrong with you. Also, don’t underestimate these voices in your head- they can definitely make you slower than you actually are. They keep telling you, how useless you are. Sometimes, you have to just shut them up.What would be great for you is that you find from within, the thing you’d like doing with yourself. That thing (multiple things) will give you the energy to move forward. The world has seen people who have no hands/legs go swimming for olympic so thinking slow is definitely not the biggest problem out there.You could also check if this is just a phase. Perhaps you are going through a bad phase and that is slowing you down. Try and involve yourself into mind-engaging activities like reading, writing. Most certainly, write a journal. It also helps in categorizing pending thoughts in your mind. It removes the clutter from our mind, so when finally we are finally doing something, we give our 100% to it.Begin with speaking to your close friends (those who will understand), your parents or partner. Online Q&A may not be enough in a lot of cases because people don’t know what context you are speaking from. In the end, never shy from seeing a counsellor/therapist if you are unable to deal with your issues. Gone are the times when it was a taboo. It is always good to get a third-party perspective.
What is wrong with me?? I realize that there is something off about me, but I have no idea what it is... :(?
Hi everyone. I'm 22yrs old. I know I am depressed, but i feel like there is something else wrong with me too mentally but idk what it is...I constantly have bad thoughts all the time, always thinking about death/suicide...my past has been horrible, can't maintain relationships, sexually abused/molested as a child and teen, i have a violent temper, i don't take it out on ppl, but if I do get angry, I break things, I've kicked 2 holes in a door before during rage...can't make/maintain eye contact with ppl, because when i do, my brain thinks that they are thinking bad thoughts about me, mocking me, etc. sometimes I will have actual, lengthy conversations with myself, but at that moment, its like I'm talking to someone else, not me. I only realize it afterwards, when our conversation is over, that I just spent all this time, talking to myself. the fact that I know that there is something wrong with me but dont' know what, is driving me even more insane.
Something is very wrong with me, i think im going mental.?
I don't want to scare you but this sounds like schizophrenia. You NEED to get help for this. The hearing voices and paranoia lead to schizophrenia. I'm not sure though since I'm not a doctor so you need to tell your mom, or tell your doctor so they can refer you to a specialist that can help you. It's also scary that your forgetting things and not remembering what you do or say.
Is there something psychologically wrong with me?
Hi, I think you may have suffered traumatic events in your infancy and you are not even aware of them, or maybe sustained exposition to violence (physical or psychological) caused that desensitization you have now. My suggestion is that you find a good therapist (not just any therapist since some of them just don’t have a clue, look for advice of whom to go to, maybe on the Internet?) and check your issues, I’m quite sure there’a something back in you story.Now, about the nihilism, I think that it’s a trap product of our need for certainty and our capacity for abstraction. First of all, what tells you that there’a really no point in life? Logic? Dude, thinking that logic is the ultimate tool that makes us know it all is a belief (therefore nihilism is a religion lol). Logic it’s the best tool nature provided to us, but we can’t know if its the best. Can you imagine how the universe formed out of nothing (because it had to start sometime right, that’s what logic tells us)? Or what is “nothingness” anyway? Two simple questions that surpass logic, I think they is evidence that logic can only get us so far, Universe is more complex that we can even think, so relax about the meaning or purpose of life and stuff, WE JUST DON’T KNOW (now, if you insist in the purposelessness of it, realize you are being part of a religion, the nihilistic church and their deity called “Absurd”, since there’a no way to know if such statement is true: absence of evidence isn’t evidence of absence).That was my grain of sand, hope you get well! Regards pal.
Always feeling paranoid, is there something wrong with me?
Whenever I go outside I feel like people are watching me all the time, thing is I get very embrassed and stressed from that and think alot about not trying to do anything stupid to embrass myself in front of people. Like yesterday I went to a library, it was unexpectedly packed with people while I tried returning some books... feeling totally watched and embrassed I ended up pretending to use the toilets and quickly walked back out. Is there a mental problem or issue with me? My best freind just thinks that I have low self-esteem and nothing more.
