As far as I know, I don't have any mental issues.

That's good to hear because mental disorders can cause a significant amount of mental distress and impair daily functions and judgment.

The cause of mental disorders are unclear. I wish they knew more. I have depression myself and anxiety and panic disorder. It landed me in the ER a few times.

Wow, that's crazy. I hope you have been getting better now.

I am thank you! It takes a lot of patience and some cognitive and behavioral therapy. It was hard, but I'm glad it pushed me to get psychiatric help.
