Paranoia, depression, & anxiety?
K I just took a mental disorders quiz & it said I have paranoia & second I had both manic depression and generalized anxiety disorder. i know you’re thinking it’s just a dumb quiz but i knew i had these things wrong with me a long time ago. i know i should probably see like a therapist but i tried it and it felt like she wasn’t really getting where or what my problem(s) was. does anyone have any of these disorders & how do you cope?
There really are two ways to approach this. If these disorders are chemical then they need medication. If not, it is all a matter of controlling your mind.
I saw a therapist and took medicine and neither helped me. It took me four or five years to get my mental disorders under control. It was a matter of shifting perspective from myself to things around me. As cliche as it sounds I write a lot and paint and such. For me, what helped a lot, was trying to see the beauty in everything.. it sounds so lame but it’s true. I am just about the most content person i know. It also helps to sort of let things go, being more laid back.
I hope this helps. Like i said it took me like four years to master myself. I have a pretty good hang of it now. But you will never be completely content all the time.

You cope by seeing a therapist and a psychiatrist and taking medication.

as these problems were there in the past, not that much significant as in past. u should use bio-psychosocial approach in ur treatment. see psychiatrist and psychologist, both while working on ur social support and relationships. you should manage your stress in a better way, it’ll reduce ur problems and also helps in preventing relapse. for tips you can visit-
