However, I also was told by a psychiatrist I may have ADHD. (which comes with bad emotional regulation and RSD, co-morbid mood stuff, etc.) This is to provide context in case it is the ADHD and not both (or only dysthymia). I'm not looking for a diagnosis, just your thoughts. Either way I'm looking at therapy again.


My self esteem usually is pretty low. Some people said I am my worst enemy. I don't disagree. I'm pretty self critical. I overanalyze things and feel guilty maybe too much. I feel hopeless and I feel like I shouldn't try because I know I will fail. I definaly know this persistent self image of mine began around middle school. So it has been several, several years. There have been periods of me being okay for months. I've even been to therapy in university and my therapist talked about my "depression and anxiety scores" when they changed or whatever but she never said I have depression and anxiety if I remember??? But it was implied I guess. I had to stop therapy because I graduated from college and the therapist was a college therapist. Now I'm hoping to look for therapy again.
