Am I mental?

Question

Hi

I cant control what I do, I have silly outbursts and cant stop saying silly words. I can be very annoying to some people on the internet as I just paste silly words in to the messenger but it seems to give me a thrill , stupid really, but I cannot help it!

I have really bad depression where I feel really down and other times where I feel really really happy and will tell people really silly stuff , pip my horn unecesarly ect...talk like a retard and shout at people out the window of my car telling them there silly.

I do not have a job right now and I have an ance problem which can seem to make the problem worse, although i dont think its the main cause of my depression although I wont no til they gone.

Im 19 teen male boy and I also have very angry feeling with the bad depression and at times.. its quite flucuation but nothings seems correct with me..

What is this likely to be, or am I simply a retard with a high IQ?

Answer 1

Go and see you G P - show him what you have written here and I know he will point you in the right direction. You can be helped so do not despair. Good luck

Answer 2

In no way am I a medical expert but I do have experience of similar symptoms. I have Bipolar and so does my dad. I suggest the best course of action is to see your GP. Try to gather as much information on symptoms. It is really useful to keep a daily diary on your mood. Score from 1 - 10 1 being low mood 10 being very high. There are some self tests on the Internet which I used to convince my doc I was not right.

Remember mental illness is suffered by 1 in 4 of us so no shame. If you get the right help you can live a normal happy life.
Many with Bipolar tend to be highly intelligent, creative people. e.g. Stephen Fry, Winston Churchill, Spike Milligan.

Good luck mate.

Answer 3

were all bloody a bit mad so don,t worry, only boring people are not mad. anyway, i think you are a little mixed up and need to have a good chat with someone. See a counsellor some church,s do it free the smaritans.
Watch your diet as well , i had bad acne eat raw food, its very good for the skin and drink lots of water and get some treatment from the health store for it, it works wonders. but speak to someone it will end your confusion take care denise

Answer 4

Well your young and that could explain a lot of it, but you do seem a bit on the extreme end of things or even a bit bipolar. I say this in a good way though, I think maybe you might benefit from some counseling and possibly some medication. I would go see a Doctor.

Answer 5

It sounds like you could be bipolar...or just have hormones running amok thru your system. If you're really concerned, go to your GP and talk to them about it...maybe get some tests done.
Find a healthcare professional to talk to. Whether or not you have a medical/mental problem, you recognise your behaviour as unacceptable and getting some advice is the first step to dealing with it. This sort of acting-out certainly won't make you any friends or help your job opportunities. And it won't make you attractive to women, I can tell you that for sure.

Answer 6

19 is a scary age caus soon you wont be able to blame your behaviour on being a teenager.
maybe you are a retard with high iq,who knows.

No one on Yahoo Answers can diagnose whether or not you are mental. You need to speak to a professional and explain your issues to them.
