-- Posted by bananawhore at 10:07 pm on Dec. 1, 2008 she said i was so busy trying to have things wrong with me, that i was missing out on the problems people around me were having. maybe i AM trying to have disorders. i don't know, sometimes i wonder if i want things to be wrong with me, for the attention, or just so i can feel different, im not really sure. but then again, i fit the criteria for so many things, AND ive even been diagnosed with some, but then a part of me is always thinking "hey maybe you have that, go look up the symptoms" and then they fit. its like i have this huge list of problems, and i dont try and stop the ones that are developing because i sort of WANT problems. has anyone ever heard of anything like this? or know what it is? its not hypochondria, trust me, i looked it up :/ -- Posted by LoveKay at 10:13 pm on Dec. 1, 2008 Like uh, OCD maybe. -- Posted by ImConfusedForSure at 10:18 pm on Dec. 1, 2008 Quote: from LoveKay at 10:13 pm on Dec. 1, 2008 Like uh, OCD maybe. What is this OCD. -- Posted by tell me again at 10:40 pm on Dec. 1, 2008 I think you just want to search for answers. I don't think there's anything wrong. You're unhappy and you want to categorize it as something so that you can deal with it. It's normal to have "symptoms" for a lot of things. At the same time, many people can clinically be diagnosed but never get diagnosed. It doesn't really matter though, either way you should try to deal with what's bothering you. Whether it fits a disorder or not doesn't change anything.
