Ok so i spent 26 years of my life undiagnosed with severe paranoia and anxiety and depression/mood swings. I never told anyone and i didn’t really need “support”, i was just able to get through on my own no matter how bad it got. 

Now, since being diagnosed and on meds, i feel like i need support 24/7 and that i have low tolerance overall. I have been hospitalized every 3-4 months because i can’t cope since being on meds/diagnosed. Why? Why can’t i just deal with stuff on my own like before without expressing my negativity to others?
