This might sound crazy but sometimes I wish my mental health was slightly worse so someone would take me more seriously finally

Unfortunately it doesn’t even matter :/ I had severe mental health issues all my life and had to secretly go to the psych ward because my dad would talk me out of it every time. You would not believe the number of people who came out of the woodwork to say they were “so sorry” it got to that point when I’d been very vocal about it the whole time

how I felt when I was going insane and expressing it only internally so nobody noticed until it was too late. :)

I meant more on the psychiatric side. I don’t know if its just because I manage to downplay it to people please or what but I run this fine line of somehow always being “stable” enough on the meds they’ve got me on for them to not want to even formally evaluate me for anything or even discuss changing my meds. And I don’t want to exaggerate my issues at all or something

Mmmm I gotcha. I also struggled with that. My PCP diagnosed me with depression and GAD, gave me Zoloft and called it a day. Turns out it was BPD so that Zoloft was doing nothing. I’m sure you’ve already tried asking for an evaluation referral or different meds :/
