Is it depression? Or is it...?!
Question: Is it depression!? Or is it!.!.!.!?
I am going to see my family doctor [I only have two psychiatrists under my insurance that are close enough to see; one doesn't see anyone under eighteen, and you have to wait months to get an appointment with the other, 'cause he's so booked] soon to get medication for my depression!. But, I am SO confused!. I am not sure if I have depression, generalized anxiety disorder, or bipolar disorder!. All of the symptoms seem the same, yet so different!.!.!.and I feel so lost, like I just don't know what's wrong! And I really don't want to get put on medication for the wrong disorder!. =/
Here are my symptoms:
- extreme exhaustion, yet it takes me an hour and a half to fall asleep after first laying down!.
- I constantly worry about things that I know are NEVER going to happen!. CONSTANTLY!. These worries seem to never cease!.
- I can NEVER relax!. Ever!. I always feel so tense!.
- Sometimes, I get such a big appetite, but then it goes away and I eventually feel sick at the site of food!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
First off, you should get treated for the Social Anxiety Disorder!.
You don't have OCD I don't know where these people get some of this stuff, I swear!. Not from those symptoms anyway!.
I think at the worst, you'd probably be diagnosed as Major Depressive or Bipolar!. Bipolar also encompasses Manic Depression, so really, it could be either!.
You should get some Psychology books, seriously!. I took two Psychology classes in college, and that's where I learned!. I'm not saying I'm any kind of expert or trying to pretend anything!. I just have a little bit of knowledge!.
Anyway!.!. get treated for Social Anxiety Disorder, first!. Your symptoms may just be heightened from that; they may go away or become less severe once treated for the 1st thing!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Why not let your psychiatrist diagnose you!? Don't worry about what exactly it is until then!. As for the suicidal thoughts, try to put something positive into your mind instead!. Entertaining suicidal thoughts makes suicide more tempting!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
you have a mental illness, and it seems that it it is both social anxiety disorder and depression!. you should make an appointment with the psychiatrist who is all booked!. the reason he is all booked is probably because he is really good!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The symptoms are conistant with depressive/anxiety disorders!. Incidentally, the two usually go hand-in-hand!. I was diagnosed with social anxiety disorder and depression, had similar symptoms to you!. My guess is you suffer from anxiety and depression, so hopefully they'll give you meds for both ( I take two different kinds and they've helped a lot!.)Www@Answer-Health@Com
Sounds like depression and General Anxiety!. I have General Anxiety!. Also, if you ever have sucidial thoughts you can call 911 or whatever emergency number your country uses if you are not in the US!. They'll know how to help you!. It is considered an emergency!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
