vega Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 This post has been flagged with warnings, as follows: Mental Illness Click this notice to reveal the content. So, recently I watched a video about all these signs of mental illness. I just thought it would be interesting and I might be able to help people after watching it, but now I'm not to sure about myself. Am I just paranoid? Because they described one illness and I fit what they said. Is there some online test or something to truly know? I don't want to worry my parents a I'm not sure if I am even brave enough to ask in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also can't seem to control my emotions sometimes. It is really concerning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digital Mentor Monsoon Posted July 4 Digital Mentor Share Posted July 4 Hey. I'm wondering, could it be helpful for you to maybe speak with a doctor to see what they think? They're probably the best person to speak to about this, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
