Well, I might be absent form the site for awhile because I'm probably going to a mental hospital. If I am admitted it will be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
ALSO!
I was told I most likely had:
Depression with psychotic features, Bipolar disorder, Or Borderline personality disorder.
WHICH MEANS IN NON-NERD TERM:
Depression with psychotic features:
means I halucinate (see things/ hear voices) and live in delusion. Combined with severe depression.
Bipolar Disorder
is a psychiatric diagnosis that describes a category of mood disorders defined by the presence of one or more episodes of abnormally elevated mood clinically referred to as mania or, if milder, hypomania. Individuals who experience manic episodes also commonly experience depressive episodes or symptoms, or mixed episodes in which features of both mania and depression are present at the same time. These episodes are usually separated by periods of "normal" mood, but in some individuals, depression and mania may rapidly alternate, known as rapid cycling. Extreme manic episodes can sometimes lead to psychotic symptoms such as delusions and hallucinations.
Borderline personality disorder:
describes a prolonged disturbance of personality function characterized by depth and variability of moods. The disorder typically involves unusual levels of instability in mood; "black and white" thinking, or "splitting"; chaotic and unstable interpersonal relationships, self-image, identity, and behavior; as well as a disturbance in the individual's sense of self. In extreme cases, this disturbance in the sense of self can lead to periods of dissociation
