General Anxiety Disorder (GAD) - It gets tiring and stressful after awhile, always being afraid of things that shouldn't be frightening. I find that the anxiety comes along with my depression, so the more depressed I am, the more anxious I am.

Stress - Well, this one is an easy one! Stress sucks!

Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) - Mine is more of just ADD, although I do get hyper when I am manic. I find it hard to focus a LOT, but usually I am actually paying attention, just in my weird, paying attention to 20 different things way. Although, if something bores me, I will not be able to focus on it! This gets frustrating sometimes, because people think I'm not listening or something is wrong.

High Blood Pressure - Apparently, as of just recently, when I am highly anxious, my blood pressure goes up. This is particularly annoying, because doctors always stress me out, so it is always high at the doctor's office. When they retest me after having me calm down, it's gone back down a bit, and at home it is usually fine.

Low Self Esteem - I am not comfortable in any way with the way I look. I do not like being overweight (although it doesn't bother me in any way in others, just myself!!) and I just generally don't like the way I look, and all of the mental issues I have. I am very down on myself. This is one of the top things I want to work on because I don't want to feel this way about myself!

Obesity - Well, there are the health issues of course, and the self esteem issues it causes me to have, and also it is one of the top things that people hate to see in others. Often, people automatically think that fat people are disgusting, and we do it to ourselves, so we deserve to be mistreated. Many associate fat with ugly and think we sit around stuffing our faces 24/7 (which is not true for me, in fact I generally eat one meal a day, which is contributing to my lack of weight loss from the lowered metabolism!) There are sooo many issues that arise from this.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) - I hate things being askew, I have weird things about my socks being on the right feet, and how many swipes of deodorant I use. I count out weird things, and I see patterns in random things. I've been slowly overcoming this one, or so I've led myself to believe, but really I just pretend that things aren't bothering me, and still think about them constantly, lol

Social Anxiety Disorder - This one is hard, because it makes me not enjoy going out sometimes. A lot of this comes from my low self esteem, and also just my inability to make small talk. I also am shy and bad with eye contact so people tend to think I'm cold or don't WANT to talk to them. I find it easier to be more open to people when I'm around others (hubby or friends) though. Also, sometimes I'm comfortable with people just fine, but that is usually when I'm manic.

Bipolar Disorder - Ahhh the center of all of my madness! A LOT of my issues stem from this ! My depression, obviously, which leads to low self esteem, which leads to anxiety. My mania usually contributes to my ADD and my OCD. I also have seasonal swings, so I am more down in the winter. This is the number one thing I want to work on, and although I know I can't "cure" it, I sure do want to lessen the symptoms a bit. My husband and family have been GREAT support, and I don't know what I'd do without them.

Depression - I am depressed a lot and think thoughts centered around my low self esteem mostly. I also think about how worthless I am and how I am a waste of space, things like that. So, it's affected me because these are not healthy or true thoughts to think!

Circadian Rhythm Disorder - I am up all night usually, which leads to me not getting enough sleep a lot, when I need to wake up early. It also limits the time I can see friends/family, especially the ones on normal schedules! I have had trouble with jobs in the past that needed me to be there early as well.
