I think everyone who knows me thinks I’m some kind of hypochondriac or something. It’s just that when you know something isn’t quite right about yourself and you start to seek help for it, the diagnosis (especially with adults who have already developed some coping skills) isn’t always that simple. I’ve been diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Major Depression, and Trichotillomania’s twin sister, chronic skin picking.

I think they all think I’m just making it up, or that I get on the internet and find a list of symptoms and go, I HAVE THAT!! It’s true, I do a lot of my own research (it’s like a hobby, truthfully), but I really do have that!!
