Am I Stupid?

I have noticed that I can't do what most people can. I can't talk right sometimes, my vision has been getting blurry, and I have been losing my memory. I think that I need glasses, but I don't have the courage to bring it up. I was just doing random google searches when I found this. I'm incompetent and I know it. This probably sounds like something you should put on r/depression, but I don't think that I can do it anymore. I need help coming out, asking for therapy, and asking about glasses. What do I do?

Hi, @Arianna1 

I'm not a professional, I'm only a random person who just came back to this site after some time just for the sake of it. But let me tell you something: you're not stupid.
You're not going to do things others can and the same way the others find things you can do that they can't. Nobody is perfect and although we can share similarities, we are all different. Comparing yourself to others is not fair for you. You are your own person. And if you were stupid, you wouldn't be seeking for help, claiming to have issues. Because you know what "stupid people" do? They can't see their imperfections.
And speaking of which, you gave yourself the answer! Seek for help. Go to the occulist and in case you feel you have to, check yourself in for therapy. Whatever you do, work on yourself. It isn't easy and you'll fall on the same hole again many times, having those dark thoughts but, trust me, there will be a day in which you'll notice and say "I have changed". For the better, of course.

You CAN do this. Don't doubt yourself.

Hello @Arianna1

Thanks for opening up to us here. I noticed that you said you don't think you can do it anymore, and although I might be being overly cautious, I just want to ask what you mean by this? It kind of reads like you're saying you don't want to be here anymore, and before I talk with you more, I just wanted to check in and see how you are doing emotionally first. I hope you are safe. Take care.
