PLEASE HeLP Me PLEASE READ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?!
Question: I looked up the symptoms and I seem to have half or more but heres what i am like.
I am in a relationship with my fiancee and I act like a kid with him sometimes...I will whine when I dont get my way and I want kid toys and dont want responsibility of any kind.
I also spend money like its burning a hole in my pocket, have feelings of boredom and i cant STAND to be alone, if i have to be alone overnight I freak out and get really angry when my fiancee goes over to his friends house.
Do you know whats wrong with me?
I have severe depression and social anxiety disorder. I cant be alone in public or do things in front of other people.
I dont want to have it for a label. I want to know if it is something i should go to the doctor for, so i can get help with it

What sticks out in my mind right now with what you are describing is Borderline Personality Disorder.
I am in recovery from BPD and I can tell you, while not in the diagnostic criteria, that little kid feeling is pretty prevalent in BPD. I always called it my 'little' feeling. Its triggered by all sorts of stuff and I know the feeling. You truly feel like a little kid. I won't go into a lot of details here, but mine is a result of not having the love and affection and protection from things I needed as a child.
My answer, YES go to the doctor. PLEASE!!!! Talk to him/her about what is going on in your head. If you truly do have BPD, its a long recovery. Very possible, but long and it takes a lot of work. The quicker you can get on this road, the quicker you can start to get over a lot of these things that are troubling you.
I know you don't want a label, but sometimes just having something that can help you understand whats going on, can help. I understand that, I know what that feels like, that feeling of what is wrong with me, and what can I do to fix it.
Talk to your doctor, get into counseling. Medication alone cannot fix BPD. Please, do it for you, do it for your fiance... do it for whoever you need to do it for. Just do it. It will help, I promise you that. Even just knowing... its like that first step.
Yes you have a disorder. Go see a Dr and he can give you medication that will correct the chem. imbalance in your head
it sounds like this could jeopardize your relationship, so i would go see a doctor. they will probably give you an anti depressant of some sort, or go see a psychologist.
if you been diagnosed with tdepression n the other one are you taking any medications??
or maybe is the way you want to act with him have you notice that you dont act like this with som1 else ?
if not then you are acting like a lil girl time to grow up
The first paragraph of your question reminds me of Peter Pan Syndrome.
It's not recognized as an official mental disorder, and it's probably nothing a doctor can help with.
Your social anxiety might be a form of Aspergers Syndrome.
I think you just like being with people....a people person. As for spending money, who doesn't like to spend it, you just have to know you can't do it when you have to pay the bills. And you don't want to be left alone.....hey, it's a scary world without having someone around to calm you. I wouldn't look to deep into yourself, accept it and try to figure out how to conqueror these issues a little at a time. Tell yourself you will be OK.
i think that it would be more helpful to talk to a doctor because then you could do less whining to your fiancee and get some stress off your shoulders... dont think to much about it because it will make the situation worse... but you are an adult so you have those responsibilites and especially with being engaged you really need to think twice before you get married if your ready to accept all of it becaue marrige is a vocation not a joyride... but relax take a deep breath... just talk to someone
I knew a girl with agoraphobia. She had a need to always be near home or around someone she knew to feel safe. She panicked if either of those conditions were not met. Panic was not always about freaking out. She would shut down, stand freakishly still until someone she knew came around. Perhaps there was some social anxiety. But, she was extremely outgoing and friendly when her safety zones were met.
Hi. Sorry to hear of your problem. I had these symptoms for a few years in my twenties. Its best to see a doctor and be open with them. Some councelling is good as they are skillful at helping you understand where this comes from. I know how awful it feels to have social anxiety. If you drink alcahol or use drugs to fill the time, it makes it worse. Im not saying you do, just a thought, and cannabis will be the worst of all to add to or cause a problem like this. Go to the doctor and be open and honest. Good Luck.
You probably should go to your dr. he'll recomend someone, or something, that you should see/take. It might be nothing, but is probably something.
See him/her just to make sure. I'd personally rather look stupid then have something wrong.
