i know the feeling..but im in the same boat as you
Did you tell your doctor about your racing thoughts? Do you ever stay up all night?
you sound anxious to me. and if you used to be worried all the time about having different diseases but now you are worried about having a different mental illness, that very worry could be called anxiety.
no one checklist fits anybody. diagnoses are based on checklists, its true, but they are mostly for insurance purposes and not to label you.
The DSM-IV-Tr is the most recent Diagnostic manual for finding authoritative "lists" to determine diagnoses. It is a book that contains symptoms that are common to all humans to a certain extent. Everyone experiences some anxiety and some depression and some dissociation and some illusions and delusions. It is the extent to which you have all your symptoms that determines your diagnosis or if you even have a diagnosis at all. At 15 most people are liable to have higher anxiety than a lot of other people. It is part of being a teenager and will pass. Please don't get hung up on having any diagnosis and just focus away from all your symptoms and on to those things that make life worth living. Pray for and toward hope, joy, love, peace, and all the other things you really want deep down inside and are afraid to hope for. As for meds, just keep working with your doctor and being honest, honest, honest and open, open, open. If a med doesn't work, if you feel worse or don't know then trust the people who speak into your life to tell you when your behavior and verbage change for the better or worse. If you don't trust the people who speak into your life, then get some others. I am 51 now and suffered from anxiety and depression since grade school. I have chosen my primary care doctor, psychiatrist and therapist and friends with an eye and ear as to what kind of person I would like to be. You may think that you do not have much control over who your doctors are, but you might be surprised. Ask. Be honest. Be open. Talk to the school nurse and school counselor if you want a change from who you have now. They can help you. But you do have control over who are your friends. It is perfectly okay to ask someone if you can be friends. The worst they can do is say, "no" and while that might hurt, it won't kill you! Honest! PS, I had to drop out of school too but today I have 2 Masters degrees and nobody cares that I flunked PE in 10th grade because I didn't go to class. You can go back! I am praying for you.
could be manic depression up and down if your a caring person they seem to think about thing normal people dont think about go to webmd.com and research. if you dont understand. if you dont have help from family call the hosp. and tell them your thoughts. if youve taking alot of meds. it sound like you dont let them get into your system. it take awhile and when you start taking them dont stop until your doc. tells you too. find a church that may help too.
