LancelLogan:


Thank you... it's very annoying...

I get bored out of my mind of the lectures are not engaging and my results reflect that.

Don't hate yourself bro I'm just concerned about the BP disorder though, you should have that checked.

LancelLogan:
I have chronic OCD coupled with other mental issues like ADHD, chronic depression, extreme anxiety, bipolar, Low self-esteem, Perfectionism(OCPD similar to OCD) and the Fantasy Disorder (i waste hours fantasizing about a character rich fantasy world i have created in my head for almost a decade now) and (i don't know) i think i'm autistic... It kills me inside... I have contemplated suicide but i'm afraid it will be too painful or unsuccessful (since firearms are not sold in this country)...

My mental issues started when i was around 5 years (or maybe since child birth)... My depression heightened during my secondary education at a military secondary school (Nigerian Navy Port Harcourt).

I stay in Port Harcourt and school in the University of Port Harcourt (Uniport)... I'm repeating my final year because my mental issues did not allow me focus on my project and two difficult Maths courses.. i find it hard to focus (ADHD) and study... If i am not battling with that ever present inner OCD voice, I'm fantasizing about another world inside my head...

Everybody thinks i'm rude because i am never smiling and i don't know how to talk to or reply people (I'm always anxious even when i'm familiar with the person trying to talk to me)... no matter how i try i will always say something awkward or I wouldn't be able to say anything at all (my heart will always seem to be racing and my speech stuttering)... So i just detach myself from people generally to save myself from embarrassment...

What my OCD and OCPD has obsessed and compelled me to do over the years is just so much i can't write all about it here... It's more than the regular "wash your hand before and after you touch anything if not you will be infected or fall sick" or "if you press the wrong letter while typing a document, you must clear the whole page and start again if not the document file will be corrupted"]... If ever i try to resist the OCD voice, I'll feel so uncomfortable, anxious, disturbed and drowsy... i won't be able to concentrate on anything at all...

Also, it has made me abusive to my younger brother... If he does something I(or the OCD rather) don't(doesn't) like ... Example, if he doesn't wash his hand before touching things in our room or doesn't follow a couple of sequence i normally carry out while cleaning our room... i get so angry, i yell or sometimes(rarely though) physically abuse him... Any little thing he does irritates me even if he is just playing music, making a call or even laughing at a joke he read on his phone... This makes me hate myself but i can't stop this behavior...

Side note:[I have nothing against Christians or religious people... Please, don't be offended] I recently stop believing in religion (Christianity in my case)... I see it as a mechanism implemented to make people behave and make people be motivated to live and enjoy life... I also don't identify as an atheist because most atheist these days are just religious about their non-believe... They will undoubtedly support theories like The Big Bang Theory and yet criticizes Christians for believing in the Creation Story... I don't believe both of the aforementioned theories(stories)... I can say I'm agnostic because i do not know about the origin of existence.. Although, when i was still an ardent Christian, my OCD voice will compel me to give large portions of my personal savings to "God" so that i'll receive a specific blessing or answer to a prayer request... lol...

I have not talked to anyone about my issues because i know they will not understand... during my secondary school days, i told my parents i was contemplating suicide... they beat me up and took me to church for deliverance... lol... so there is no point talking about it to my family...


I will appreciate talking to someone who understands... Please reply or email me...

Thanks...

I forgot to pay attention that you school in Port Harcourt.


I'll advise you to visit the general hospital in Port Harcourt. They'll have psychiatrists and psychologists there

Biko allow a doctor to properly diagnose you. You can't possibly have all those ailments alone dude. It is well o.

MaconAwire:
o.p abeg no vex how many una be? for this is way tooo much for 1 head....

My name is Legion, for we are many... (that's a joke ooo)...

blingxx:


Lemme guess... You are introverted
, never had a girlfriend
, can't socialize
, u find normal arguments boring
, you are considered a nerd
. No love life
U don't care what other people say about you

sometimes you wish people understand you by communicating without communicating with them physically


You are not alone ;-\ ... Sometimes it just feels like you are not meant for this world... Dont worry you will overcome it... I'm sure

Not meant for this world. There's no better way to put it. In the words of Hunter S. Thompson, too weird to live and too rare to die.

Writing all this Sef can cause mental problems.Go and see a shrink at a psychiatric home not Nairaland.

One surely can! I am saying this from experience.

Luukasz:
Is this an hospital, c'mon bruhv go see your doc and stop being one of those folks who come on social network to seek for help. Where as the best place to get your help is off the social network

I will suggest, u see a psychiatrist. There are therapies and drugs that can be given

see en, all of ona don mad. Gbogbo yin ti yawere. Ona just dey use english dey decorate ona problems. instead make ona go one high mountain go pray. Well, next thing na to enter market na

nigeriancritic1:

I will dissect you thus: you have been reading much into Psychology. You indulged in self-diagnosis. If Hitler had won, you will be judged a misfit to live. Focus on what matters and heal yourself from within. You appear over-pampered as many people ate going through financial hell with little time to run a self-psychological diagnosis. I do not respect priviledged people. Ask for the price of sniper as we wont miss you on Nairaland.

This is a very terrible and insensitive to say to a person who is suffering.you are pathetic and a sorry excuse for a human being. I pray you find peace and love which you clearly lack.you should have been taught that if you have nothing good to say to someone then say nothing.Also strive to get better educated on issues.It is the only way to save your dark soul. God help you.

Growing up, as a kid, I thought I wasn't from this earth, because I was always moody, I never socialized with anyone . maybe its because of the many trauma I had as a kid or maybe because of my faulty upbringing. I was never happy, until one day, I advised myself, telling myself that one day I'm die being a loser if I don't get my life together and see life on a brighter side. At some point, many people thought I was bipolar, wtf. I usually had mood swing, or they think I have multi personality syndrome. I didn't want to believe that, that's why I join the social Media, browse and surf the net to stay awoke. The most craziest part of it was, I think I wanna believe I have that shit you call OCD OR WHATEVER, because whenever I'm doing something or I pull my slippers at the door, if the two pairs are not exactly alignment the same, wow, it would seem as if I wanna go crazy, or if I'm washing clothes and I put them on a rope to dry and the clothes looks wrinkled, I would make sure I stand there for hours trying to straight the wet clothe in order for it to look okay or my closing the door, shit, I don't know what's wrong with me. I don't wanna believe I have any mental issue. So poster, you've got to make yourself believe that you are fine, no one will advice you, unless you do it on your own, okay. Rebuke that voice in u whenever it comes up, I do rebuke mine and I'm fucking fine.

This your problem is demonic,please if you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your saviour please do. Life without Christ is full of crisis. Look for a real church to join,like living Faith church aka winners. They have branches everywhere. Look for the one closest to you. God bless you

kullozone:
Atleast, you "concentrated" to explain your condition... And I also counted 2 "lols", which means you're capable of laughing too, not just anger alone.

Yeah... it's weird... sometimes when i'm in a lecture hall or around unfamiliar people i involuntarily force a smile or laugh or try to act normal... it's like my inner self is trying to conceal my issue and I see myself trying to act normal... But when I'm in my house i am my real self... it's like i have two lives...

LancelLogan:








I do not know any psychiatrist in Port Harcourt... I will appreciate if you can link me to anyone...

Visit the nearest teaching hospital and inquire.
They will direct you.

THE WORD OF GOD!! is all u need....2Timothy 3:16......Scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching the truth, rebuking error, correcting faults, and giving instruction for right living. Read books that lift up your spirit written by men of God, serve God sincerely, meet new people, play with people.

But most importantly use d word of God to correct your faults of past, rebuke frustrations,let d word of God teach u the truth about live and not the LIES that devil tell u ( u will die suddenly, u will amount to nothing in life, u will never marry or inflicted with deadly disease ) and let d word of God give u instructions ( hope ) that will forever secure your live..psalm 16:8.. I am always aware of the Lord's presence;
he is near, and nothing can shake me. Proverbs 30:5 . “God keeps every promise he makes. He is like a shield for all who seek his protection. 2cor5:17.....Anyone who is joined to Christ is a new being; the old is gone, the new has come.

I'm praying for you in church at the moment

Thank you...

ArmadillopgpA:
Hmmm,I can relate with everything bro.But you just might not know it your curse is a gift.Statistics has shown that the most creative people in the world are people who got some traits of autism in them.But then these same blessing never stops to leave some trails of anti-sociality.The same power you can use to create amazing things are the ones you can use to create a solution to your problems.Yes talking about perfection anybody like you should be ready to be perfect cos you are on a higher grade of thinking which most people don't have,so bro when your mind tends to do things perfectly don't blame it,that's what it was programmed to do.It now remains with you to train it to know its limit.Cos everything actually ends with mind control.
Wake up everyday setting difficult goals for yourself and try your best to achieve them,cos austistic people are programmed to analyze things to death.My bro you cant kill that analytical part of yourself,you cant help it and the world needs it.So being autistic is ironically being a genius it depends on how you want to use your autism.
Your main problem is people,you don't know how to deal with people without offending them which is not possible,cos you yourself is offended by people everyday.
But you can use your analytical mind as an armour against people
(1)Start beings blunt,don't care whose horse is gored
(2)Be free with people make new friends but don't attach yourself too much with anybody
(3)Make up your mind not to be expect any form of niceness or kindness from people(Don't search for pity cos you will never get it but most surprisingly you don't need it)
(4)Be ready to stand for yourself even if the whole world is against you.
(5)Take on a difficult task like programming the fulfillment you get from being able to do what only a few people can do will compensate for your perfectionism.
(6)Rather than watch a movie,listen to music or watch a football match read a magazine and drink water.Things like tv make your lose mind discipline nd control which you need so much
(7)Drink once a while maybe twice in a week just to free your analytical mind
(Work hard enough for success but don't be scared to fail
(9)We got some many celebs who are a bit autistic when you look at them more closely,nut they have been able to manage it to the top."Jay-Z ,Adele...

Thank you, I have the same problem, I appreciate your contribution. Perfectionism is both deadly and great, this I know.

LancelLogan:


Thanks for the advice...

Hello bro, the depression, i would advice you try and manage that cause that is the root cause of suicidal thoughts..

As for other issues which you have mentioned, take it as a gift. We need minds like you in literary studies.. We need people with rare mental makeup like Shakespeare and unfortunately, you're one.

You're not the only one who fears to socialize.. You're not the only one with a low self esteem.. I once battled with those as an introvert and as time goes, I took a keen interest in self development and today, I can be bold whenever the need arise.

When it comes to religion, I have the same view.. I'm not an atheist either..

It would be nice if you send me a pm so that we can talk.. I think I understand you cause you just described me in your write up.

oyb:


your only disease is mental hypochondria with a dose of attention seeking

go and face your books and stop making up fancy excuses for your academic failures.

this is not your village where you can wow illiterates with big words

Are you saying Africans no fi get wetin d guy list there?

Or na only oyibo de get am?

LancelLogan,I think you are also hypochondriac.Please check with a psychiatrist and stop all the self diagnosis. Too much googling or are you are psychology student?hypochondriasis is also a mental health problem.

Is this an hospital, c'mon bruhv go see your doc and stop being one of those folks who come on social network to seek for help. Where as the best place to get your help is off the social network

even the advice on whom to see is a help, I don't think the op here has made any mistake by sharing his experience on this forum.

I ll give you a three days therapy.
Even though you are no longer interested in religion, get a KJV bible, read it assiduously like your being depends on it. Resist the voices and urge to stop.

Do this for just three days, it helped my mental strength, and a kid in my moms Sunday school class. Give me a reply after three days.

I'm praying for you in church at the moment

why are you pressing your telephone during church service ?

divinedifferent:
This your problem is demonic,please if you have not accepted Jesus Christ as your saviour please do. Life without Christ is full of crisis. Look for a real church to join,like living Faith church aka winners. They have branches everywhere. Look for the one closest to you. God bless you

Not every problem is spiritual, I'm in same condition with him. I'm a winner, it hasn't solved problems. Offer a solution.

Growing up, as a kid, I thought I wasn't from this earth, because I was always moody, I never socialized with anyone . maybe its because of the many trauma I had as a kid or maybe because of my faulty upbringing. I was never happy, until one day, I advised myself, telling myself that one day I'm die being a loser if I don't get my life together and see life on a brighter side. At some point, many people thought I was bipolar, wtf. I usually had mood swing, or they think I have multi personality syndrome. I didn't want to believe that, that's why I join the social Media, browse and surf the net to stay awoke. The most craziest part of it was, I think I wanna believe I have that shit you call OCD OR WHATEVER, because whenever I'm doing something or I pull my slippers at the door, if the two pairs are not exactly alignment the same, wow, it would seem as if I wanna go crazy, or if I'm washing clothes and I put them on a rope to dry and the clothes looks wrinkled, I would make sure I stand there for hours trying to straight the wet clothe in order for it to look okay or my closing the door, shit, I don't know what's wrong with me. I don't wanna believe I have any mental issue. So poster, you've got to make yourself believe that you are fine, no one will advice you, unless you do it on your own, okay. Rebuke that voice in u whenever it comes up, I do rebuke mine and I'm fucking fine.

please don't say that, let him visit the hospital !!!!!

Cos this "you've got to make yourself believe that you are fine" na the excuse most obese people don de use.
