  Robin Williams was suffering from Bipolar disorder. I can't imagine the kind of depression he had to lead himself to suicide. I myself suffer from Bipolar disorder as well. The constant mood swings, from happy then to just completely depressed. It's irritating, it's all just confusing.

  
  
  :c

  I like you and im sure you would be missed -hugs-

  I struggle with borderline and it's very similar to bi polar
  not everyone with bi polar disorder is suicidal, it just swings from overly happy to super depressed
  it's usually really manageable with medication

  Despite swinging from happy to majorly depressed by every hour or so and the urge to cause self harm, I could never commit suicide. Mostly because the people around me would feel guilty, I try to put myself in their shoes before I decide to do such a reckless thing. There was something wrong with me and it started with anxiety when I was 6 or 7. All the depression a self harm I had have and done at such a young age, I always thought I was normal. I literally realized all these symptoms this week. I mean- maybe I'm just being paranoid, or looking for an excuse for my actions. However the symptoms match with my life so well, it's frightening.

  Sounds like me in my early adolescence (like 12-15)
  I struggled with self hard a lot, and I'm ashamed for people to look at my thighs because they're just scarred up, I found that warm baths with soothing music helps
  I suggest you give it a try, especially when you feel overwhelmed

  I really wish I could but I just started school. I was stupid and forgot about my anxiety attacks during tests. Taking all advance classes including WHAP overwhelmed me and I broke down. School made us sign a contract, can't leave which is pretty ridiculous :L

  have you talked about maybe taking the test in a more private setting where the only ones in the room are you and someone supervising
  i know that helped me a lot in school

  I haven't told an adult about this yet. I might try for my health teacher or history. Or maybe even my last year's drama teacher. They're the most understandable one's.
  Thanks.

  You really should, it doesn't get better on its own, only worse. It's best to tackle it now than wait.

  He also had some heart surgery i heard, and looking it up, the medication and enzymes you get end up at about a 50/50 shot of depression.
  
  Just something i read/heard somewhere. Wonder if that's true.
