quite a few actually diagnosed.... i suspect it's not the end of them either....

bi-polar/manic depressive
insomnia
anxiety

those are the major ones... i know durring all my doctor visits i've been told i have others but i can't remember everything the doctors have told me i have...

i've been in psycho-therapy since i was 5... when i started hearing voices.... (and i'm serious... i later deduced they were simply just memories of when i was far to young to of remembered the entire event, of my mother and father screaming at each other....but it was really violent... so my grandma [who raised me btw] sought help for me...)

insomia is a mental disorder?

[horror business]

Well I have insomnia too, so if it's a mental disorder then I can add that to the list of depression and anxiety and ocd.

technically yes... sleep is regulated by the brain and on top of that, psychiatrists are the one who diagnose it and treat it (atleast in tx..., might be diffrent other places) but when my grandma took me to a doctor (as in MD) he told me i'd need to go to a psychiatrist to have it treated...

ADD, but i honestly believe attention defeciet disorder doesn't exist. i was 'diagnosed' in kindergarten have been pumped with drugs such as ritalin, celexa, adderall, cylert etc since then until i stopped all together in 12th grade. struggled with a speech impediment from 4th to 10th grade. also struggled profusely in mathematics. in 12th grade i went to a new shrink, we discovered that its was NOT ADD all along, but rather a more serious and legitimate learning disorder known as dyscalculia. my ADD diagnosis had been blanketing an actual disorder all along. basically discalculia had been the source of my stuttering and trouble grasping concepts related to time, space, quantity, distance, and simple equations but we never ventured outside the ADD box.

moral of the story: ADD/ADHD is severly over diagnosed, often covering up a more serious problem.

I have trichotillomania, though I manage to keep it under control enough not to end up with bald spots in my head. A constant daily struggle to be sure though.

How long has it been since you've smoked?

I'm diagnosed ADHD and OCD. Since I've been meditating and exercising, the ADHD seems to be gone, though.

i dont believe any of the bullshit diagnoses that doctors come up with, but apparently i have bipolar with acute psychosis, as well as generalized anxiety disorder and a.d.d. but meds only agitate it all so i smoke weed and it manages.
