What do these symptoms sound like:
-Overly emotional mood swings (so happy that random laughter is frequent, but then so sad that crying seems pointless, within a day.)
-Insecure around some parties, but when in a good mood, a sense of superiority
-Depression, hopelessness, craving to give up goals
-Desperate desire to paint, write, and create to leave a sense of self in the world
-Awkwardness, physically. unusual movements, eccentric facial expressions
-Deep, obsessive attachment to the past
-Every so often, random, irrational fears of God, the devil, mind controlling illuminati, sicknesses, etc. Not all the time. Very aware that these things are irrational afterward, but still a huge fear. These fears are not random mostly, but are often brought on by casually hearing about them, and then increase with intense research of subject.
-Random odd moods of attributing emotion to inanimate objects, seeing colors that aren't there, lying
-lack of focus, attention problems, lack of sleep, strange sleeping patterns
-loss of friendship, fear of future
-talking to oneself as if it were a separate person that you created. (but aware that the person isn't real, and very aware that the person is inside your head, but you still mumble out loud, like a coping mechanism. The person inside doesn't usually say much, just makes slight comments, but occasionally is sarcastic or sardonic.)
-Obsessive compulsive tendencies
-Paranoia that everyone is talking/taunting them, dazed staring, feelings of detachment
-Racing thoughts, headaches because of so much deep contemplation
-History of oddness, social awkwardness, shyness, same-sex attraction, and paranoia.
-Mother with possible bipolar disorder (believes she has powers sometimesm but isn't particularly insane) and uncle with unknown mental disorder
These symptoms are not constant, but increase with stress/sadness and usually calm down a bit with sleep. The symptoms do not detract from the intelligence of the person, but they cause a lack of interest in work/school at times, but at other times, increased interest in it to the point of being obsessive.
What does it sound like?? These symptoms aren't as bad as I'm making them sound, but they are still present, and I am very aware that they are not normal and are there. They aren't as bad as they seem mostly, but I worry they will get worse or become uncontrollable. Am I just exaggerating things?
Also, I forgot to mention these symptoms are not noticeable that much besides coming across as very random and odd with the occasional random angry outbursts.
I have been told I change topics very quickly and randomly.
