Usual Screwup

Hey guys, I'm new here my first post to be exact. I've been struggling the past few years with emotions and recently discovered I might actually have mental health issues. I've tried to explain and reach out to those close to me for support but everyone is also going thru tough times and I don't want to burden others with my weight. Any tips for coping or natural redemies to help cope when things are toughest?

What leads you to believe you may have mental health issues. What symptoms are you experiencing.

Depression, withdrawal, anxiety, loss of focus, motivation, memory loss, dramatic weight loss(around 50 pounds) dramatic weight gain (almost 35 pounds) learning abilities decreasing, lack of self care, over sleeping or no sleeping etc. Reading up on the internet basically self diagnosis, my first step was here in this support group next I want to reach out to a professional if the coping strategies I learn here don't help.

I had all those symptoms and still refused to believe I had a mental illness. It took a therapist to test me for me to see the results. Please seek professional help.
