9 Mental Disorders That Can Be Mistaken for Personality Traits
Despite the growing number of online resources on mental disorders, there are still a lot of misinformation and stigma surrounding them. Mental disorders are sometimes misrepresented and even glamorized on social media, and personality traits can be mistaken for mental disorders or vice versa. As such, this video aims to raise awareness about different mental disorders. However, it should not be used to self-diagnose. If you relate to any of the signs in this video, please seek help from a licensed mental health professional to avoid improper diagnosis.

Hello :))
Hi
Yay I post before Phys2go
Thanks so much for the narrator her voice is so calming
Hai
I hate it when people self diagnose OCD and ADHD to appear quirky or cool. It just shows that these people are so insensitive towards people who are actually suffering from these disorders.
I agree. I visited a phycologist cause my mom believed I had ADHD cause I was having trouble in school and was inattentive and daydreamed a lot. I was never diagnosed but now I'm older I still remember when she told me not to long ago I'm weird for someone who has OCD cause I didn't clean a dusty corner. After I looked into it man, it seemed like someone wrote my secret habits down I keeped to myself and talked about in my daydreams
people who pretend to have adhd to be quirky piss me off so much. thinking its trendy to have a disorder like that. i literally cannot function with my adhd. it is disabling in many cases. theyll be like. oh having adhd is so cool. then you tell them the reality of thing like saying, executive dysfunction has stopped me from brushing my teeth for over a month, and theyll put you down for being gross over something you have no control over. theyll be like oh yeah im so adhd. then get confused when some of us are crying over an essay because we in a room with someone else whos simply breathing.
I have ADHD and I don’t suffer from it. It’s just a special ability!
@@millacernemusic yay!!! WE LOVE POSITIVITY!!!🥳
Okay so it isn’t about ADHD or ocd, but i still feel like i wanna add something. (But first. Let me say i totally understand that people who do just want to be quirky exist, and that self diagnose Can still be offensive. I just wanna say it ain’t Black and White) Because people who self diagnose doesnt always do it to be quirky. When i was a kid, i hat Big problems with sleeping. I was always scared before bed, couldn’t lay down for more then around 20 minuttes i Think, before haveing to look through my room to check everything was okay, and it was verry common for me to go crying up to my parents, because i thought i and/or everyone i loved was going to die. At the time my parents Said that i had anxiety, but looking back, i dont know if that was the case. I dont deal with it anymore bow that i am older, i havn’t heard anything about someone who have something simular, and since i have met people with stuff like social anxiety, i dont know if i was at that level. However, what i also know is that even if i didn’t have it, i dont regeret calling it anxiety. When i was Young i HATED the idea of being weak. I didn’t wanna depend on other people, and feeling like i needed protektion was something i was too pridefull to let myself feel. So when it all started, i was really harsh on myself. I saw myself as weak and pathetic, just because i couldn’t sleep in a room alone. However, that changed when my parent started to Call it anxiety. It felt like an excuse, a reason to accept these feelings and giveing myself a break. Of course i wasnt as brave as other kids, They didn’t have what i have. It helped me accept ny feelings, and that is verry importent if you wanna deal with Them. So yeah, that was my novel. I just wanted to say that people who self diagnose, dont always do it to Seem quirky. Instead it is a Way to deal with feelings that They have trouble with, and so They dont run around thinking They are weak or broken. Instead They might just want something to lach on to, to help Them accept themself.
I think many people with depression or anxiety think that it's just their character traits either because they've been suffering from these disorders since early childhood or because they've lost definition between the times they were "fine" and at what "moment" exactly they were not anymore, either from being in pain for too long or from the fact that you don't crash into severe depression in one second. it usually breaks you slowly.
( Hi I’m Kaya, I’m 16 :,) ) I feel like I might have depression or anxiety, but I don’t know if me having the “depressive episodes” is me really having them or just being lazy and sad or upset about something. 2 years ago I felt so empty and depressed I wanted to tell my mom that I just don’t have the energy to live and saw no point in existing (that was around march) and then I also remember feeling really empty and depressed for a whole month in march last year and having my first panic attack. I had another one 10 months later- also in March. It’s like I’m almost perfectly fine all year and then when feb-march hits I get at least one panic attack out of nowhere when when I’m happy or “chill” and have depressive episodes, but I don’t want to talk about it with anyone because I feel like it’s not actual depression and that making it a thing will make me upset because I just don’t want help. A few months I feel great and live life so much and then a few days of me being depressed and wanting to be alone, hits. But I feel like what im experiencing is .. normal?? (btw. In march last year it got so bad, that I was crying in the bus with my, at the time boyfriend almost every day crying into his shoulder. I felt so useless and hopeless and the relationship was to stressful because I didn’t want him to know what I was going through.. so I broke up with him at the end of march and didn’t exactly tell him why because I was embarassed.) but now it’s not like it affects me daily and when I have an “episode” that I can’t function normally. Yes it is hard to do school or even just eat or wash, but if it does get worse over time.. we’ll see.
@@k_kaya_art I somehow feel the same things as you do. I think its better to open up to the right people who would take it seriously like a close friend. I hope you feel better.
@@teapecan4735 thank you c: and I hope you feel better too.☁️✨ yeah, I told one of my close friends about my first and second panic attack and she said that she has those too and just recently her mom got her a psychologist after she opened up. She got diagnosed and tells me she feels better knowing what was happening with her so yeah.. if it does get worse I will have to talk to someone but right now, I’m in a good state:) thanks for replying
@@k_kaya_art i have the exact problem some times im happy and fine and other times i just wanna die i can't understand why. i cant go to a doctor and i dont know anyone enough to trust so im not really sure what to do. i tried talking to mom but she just says im crazy and doesn't care. she wanted to send me to asylum just because i feel like this. at this point i just wanna die
Hi, i'm Dem (i prefer this internet name) I was bullied in high school for being autistic, i've been feeling bad for so much time, i don't wanna diagnose myself anything (pstd, depression, etc.) because ppl judges you... I hide i'm in pain most of the time, making drawings and histories to cope, and even though, before i hated assignments, i tried everytime i could to, i would gave them. But, now, my procastination is out of control... I can't be happy as i used to... I don't feel safe telling anything to anyone irl, so i overshare on Internet. (Don't tell me i shouldn't ik i shouldn't)
me: i can’t get up and clean or do any self care for myself brain: you have depres- me: no, lazy brain: we need to see someone, this is serious me: LAZY
yeahhhhhh this is kinda meh two lol
As I read this from my bed……where I stay 95% of the time.
Shut up, brain! Gah...
lool it's kind of the opposite for me i'm like: okay maybe i have something going on ... and my brain just goes like : noooooo shut up you b*** and i'm like: okayyyy
Same with adhd Me: Why am I so disorganized?! Why do I keep zoning out in class?! My brain: Adhd Me: NO- My brain: ADHD!! Me: **Internal and external screaming**
When I was younger, I literally WISHED I had a disorder or a phobia because the internet perceived it as being unique or “qUiRkY”. Stop. Having a disability that would harm your mental or physical health is NOT something good. It’s really frustrating.
@@-Solidwater I think it's because you *wanted* depression, your subconscious thought that you deserved to have it, since you implemented that you wanted it.
@@-Solidwater noo, no matter how small your struggles are, they are still struggles. Have you been to a therapist? Maybe they can help you work through your issues. Or if not, then slowly create healthy habits. Like I heard that like sports players have habits that they do if they overthink or get anxious. It can be as simple as crossing your fingers or your thumb touching your index finger. It usually helps them. So the next time you get anxious or overthink create a habit, then keep on doing it whenever you get anxious. This tells your brain that you are able to calm down when you perform a certain action.
@@-Solidwater oh- are you perhaps not comfortable around them?
@@-Solidwater noo, it's not pathetic at all. I also thought I was pathetic before I decided to just change some parts of my mindset slowly. Taking baby steps can help you a lot. I am doing much better than November of last year.
Exactly, Their are other ways to get attention, I salute you fro admitting you were a 'pick me' person
i HATE when people at my school are like “omg i have adhd” “my adhd is so bad now” “my adhd makes me such a crackhead” it makes me ( a person who was diagnosed with adhd and takes meds for it ) literally want to just punch a wall 😀 some people will say “well just do your work” like don’t you think i would if i could ??? not to mention that like a person or two told me they *WANTED* to go on my medication so they could loose weight too. do you think i like having to worry about trying to eat enough ? do you think i like feeling sick just from drinking water ??? no . you don’t want to take adhd medication and you don’t want to have adhd which could lower your grades in school quickly with just a few mess ups or missing assignments . you’re not a crackhead . stfu .
Don't worry it will be alright
You explained how I feel perfectly my mom's always getting made at me because of how much I'm affected when it comes to grades it's so irritating
I completely agree with you, I have ADHD and take meds for it as well. Also with the food thing I experience that too, something I’ve found that helps is to set times to eat and keep a water bottle by you as much as you can, and with focusing I’ve found setting timers and seeing how much you can finish in, let’s say 20/15 minutes, then trying to beat that. I don’t know why that helps but I really does, at least for me. I hope any this helps!
I know the feeling. Then there's those who don't have a clue about ADHD and think you're making excuses. I get told I'm absent minded, don't focus enough, am disorganised or forgetful. People at work tell me I should have been born blonde. My job really engages my hyperfocus though so I'm actually good at my job, but my apparent "personality traits" have people judging me
It really is tough having ADHD, I have to ask questions multiple times just to be sure I've remembered it right, and even then focusing on what I'm being told in class is hard.
The voice alone is therapy
:)
@@Psych2go Yeah, you guys rock! Ever since this pandemic started I’ve done a lot of self reflection that’s definitely improved my life.
Relatable.
Can u make video on madd -mixed anxiety depressive disorder
I was diagnosed with severe depression and my mom still insist I'm lazy. I haven't been able to leave my room in months unless someone actively makes me and I'm miserable when I'm away from my bed. I've been emotionally neglected my entire life and that still hasn't changed even with my diagnosis. It really sucks.
Hey Ann, I hope this isn't intrusive and I don't know if you will see this because your replies are disabled; I hope you do regardless. By the sounds of it, it seems like your mother/parents have been emotionally neglectful, even abusive, your entire life. In recent times, there has been recognition of an up-and-coming disorder named 'CPTSD', which is essentially PTSD but repetitive trauma that comes from years of persistent abuse and/or neglect. C-PTSD can lead to executive dysfunction (which causes procrastination), loss of identity, loss of social and physical appetite, attachment issues (i.e. you feel threatened in your real-life environment and cannot connect with people), etc. The thing is, it CAN and WILL mimic mild-moderate-severe depression and/or anxiety, so I really hope you look into it as you have stated that even with your diagnosis, nothing has changed. I would recommend you look into the book 'Complex Ptsd: From Surviving to Thriving ' by Pete Walker to better understand if this may fit your case; you can download it from PDFDrive online. I will attach a link to it as a separate comment to avoid spam (or whatever). The longer you persist with the pain, the deeper you dive into 1 or 2 of the following responses: a) a freeze response, where you can dissociate and get numb, become a couch potato and want to stay home all day, find solace in the internet/online friends b) a flight response where you get away from the environment that causes you trauma and suppress thoughts, develop anxiety, etc. c) a fight response, where you become more aggressive and act out on others around you to deal with your trauma d) fawn response, where you people-please to fit in with those around you and to compensate for emotional validation people like us never got in our childhood I'm sorry for what you've gone through. I know what it's like. Finding a good therapist is incredibly essential to treat whatever underlying issues you have; I'm still struggling to find a good one without blowing my entire wallet. If you, or anyone reading this, feel you can relate to this, please don't feel afraid to reply to my comment asking what steps you should take for currently feeling stuck. Sending you much love and I really hope you look into this.
@@yahyawasim1994 thank you for telling me this. I will try to look into these things so I can get better and hopefully they work.
@@yahyawasim1994 it's nice that some people understand others pain and try to help them
@@yahyawasim1994 sounds like the exact same thing. My parents were both extremely abusive. I talk about briefly on my channel. I was neglected but they called me lazy but f*cking retarded on purpose. I have seemingly ptsd, depression, anxiety, adhd and autism. The sad thing is also being yelled out by people for thinking I am not listening when their words to to gibberish at times...I have brain fog too.
Hi Ann, hope you're doing better. As for your mother, y'know what... Tell her that I said she has a phenomenal daughter, and she's NOT LAZY. She's your star, so take a good look at her and wipe off the rust from her light. Listen to her. You'll realize how bright she can be. Uplifting even!
Actually in India, parents don't know meaning of depression, the only word they know is overthinking
that's interesting, why do you think that is? -monica
India clearly needs a chapter for mental disorders and stuff, I have so many doubts, so many experiences and attacks. But i'm scared to tell it to around me because we all know what would happen next :) they wouldn't believe me, "Its all in your head." "Stop using your phone and go socialize out there, Can't imagine the amount of rubbish you see in that" "stop overthinking" "I don't believe you, there's no such thing as that stop making excuses" Ha ha ha ha
@@hehehhehehe66 exactly what happened to me. It took years for my family to understand. YEARS
Yess.
@@Psych2go I'm one of them.who faced it. They say : See the bright side, don't think much.
I have social anxiety, and many people mistake it as shyness. Even when I'm in extreme fear and on the verge of a panic/anxiety attack.
Same here, it's really annoying when people think it's a personality trait.
same here
Same
I haven't been diagnosed but recently I asked my parents to take me to get tested...they're still reluctant and convinced that I'm going through a phase, but I'm glad that at least I'm getting tested Best of luck to you :D
@@lcvelydaph Yeah alot of people take mental health as a personality trait especially depression, its really disrespectful because mental illness is something that is really terrible to live with especially when you have multiple forms of it.
My sister has ADHD. She’s eight and doesn’t understand why she’s different. I showed this to her and she completely got it. Thanks so much!
Thank you! I spent my whole childhood without knowing why I'm different and it completely destroyed my self esteem. You saved her from a lot of pain.
i was diagnosed when I was 4, which was lucky for me cuz I'm a girl and undiagnosed adhd is bad for a girl, but I didnt know I was different until 4th grade, 3 years ago. I thought that i was normal, but I'm not, but thats ok, right?
@@ishallcallhimsquishy2420 of course your perfect just the way you are!
@@ishallcallhimsquishy2420 you are aware of it. And that is perfect!
I was diagnosed with Autism, Anxiety and Systematic movement disorder when I was 3 years old Learning this stuff early definitely helps
You do NOT have to be shy to have Social Anxiety Disorder. You CAN be a social person and still get Social Anxiety Disorder due to for example constant bullying over nine years. It might then make you seem shy but there’s such a huge difference between “I can’t leave the house because I have panic attacks when I try or start throwing up from the anxiety if I do” and “oh holding a presentation in front of class makes my stomach feel funny because people are looking at me”
You're kinda underestimating shyness. I get paralyzed and I started crying in front of the whole classroom once, just because of shyness.
@@-Solidwater Have you talked to a professional about it? Because it’s not like you can’t be shy and have social anxiety to a lesser extent than complete isolation from people, having anxiety attacks from holding presentations sounds like more than just shyness. Nervousness can develop into neuroticism that leads to anxiety even “without a reason for it” (there usually is one but you might never know why, a lot of the time it’s hormones and why being a teenager or pregnant makes people “act weird”) Panic attacks also don’t necessarily look like what people think they do, they depend heavily on your fear response and if that’s freeze, then becoming paralysed is pretty common but usually not very noticeable. I mean just because I can be completely frozen and “gone” during one, before getting out of that state in one way or another, doesn’t make them have less of a debilitating effect on my life. Sometimes people do actually fight during one, that’s why trying to touch someone having a panic attack can make them attack you and talking to them calmly about whatever harmless thing you can think about is the recommended option for dealing with someone having a panic attack
@@AriettaTheWild17 I don't really remember how it was like but that was a special occasion. Usually I'm just unable to move but I can work well enough. Actually, I like to sing, and despite being unable to move and really nervous, I can sing as well and I do when I'm comfortable when there's a lot of people. ... It's also really hard for me to speak up in class except that if I really want to say something I *will* say it, but that's ADHD impulsivity I guess. Uh, basically, I think I'm just shy + have low self-esteem + other reasons why I feel like everyone is constantly judging me Ok maybe I *should* tell someone about it- And did you say that I had an anxiety attack???
@@-Solidwater "stop crying, i want to know about the mitochondria you dumbshit" that's what i would yell if i was in your class lol. Dude, you just gotta remeber one thing: You hate everyone in that room, so you just say shit and leave. Trust me, there's no space for shame when you are to damn angry with the world to even care. I remember one of my presentations being like "so how that *(thing that involves scientific thing question)* works?" And i go like "i already explain it you bit- i mean, my beloved class-mate."
as someone who has really bad social anxiety i hate when people call me shy, cause "no, honey, im not cute, im suffering here"

Memory is so unreliable. Memories change way too easily. When trying to remember some event, you are not remembering the event itself but the last time you remembered th event, which means that each time you do it there's a risk you lose part of it, and none of your memories are 100% accurate

weeee social anxiety
What sucks is when you’re such a perfectionist, that you just don’t do it at all.
I’m a perfectionist with low self-confidence, and severe social and performance anxiety. While I’ve only seen a counselor for social anxiety, This combination has led me to make poor decisions, and I’m pretty sure I’ve developed Avoidant Personality Disorder. My go-to solution to many problems that arise is to pretend it’s not there and do nothing. Haven’t had a job in years because I haven’t applied to any: my brain says what’s the point when I’m probably going to do bad at any interview. It takes hours of SO much mental effort to convince myself to do necessary action.
Dam I feel that...
There was this girl my sister told me about who said she had that disorder,a do the way she was acting it seemed like she was just a perfectionist who was over exaggerating it. I mean the title of the video: (But we can’t assume anything really.)

All my life I've been called "oversensitive" and had a rough time finishing projects. Several months ago, I delved into the MBTI tests, researched cognitive functions and learned that I am an INFJ. Things made so much more sense after reading about that personality type! Then a couple months later, life got excessively crappy and stressful. Sensitivity, anxiety, insomnia and forgetfulness became debilitating. I just got diagnosed with ADHD and apparently need meds now. I forgot where I was going with this. Anyways, don't be afraid to seek help when you feel overwhelmed and always remember that no matter what your personality type, mental or physical state is, you are an amazing person!

When I was younger, in 1st grade my teacher used to tell my parents that they thought I had OCD because I would always get upset or worried if I would do an assignment wrong or not up to my standards. My parents denied it of course and that was that. Then later in 5th grade, kids in my class used to bully/ make fun of me and say that I had OCD because I used to organize the folders into rainbow order and would get upset when they pulled the bookmark out of my books. I doubt that I have OCD but sometimes I just think back to those times. Some people. (If you’re reading this then make sure to drink water you beautiful person!)
i really don’t understand myself sometimes, i don’t like being around others, i just like chilling on my own but every time i go talk to someone i get extremely energetic, it always makes me uncomfortable because i know that’s not the way i normally act, which just makes me wanna be alone even more
I'm like that too ...But I won't think that deep about it lmao..sometimes I literally stay away in a corner even though my friends are sitting nearby and sometimes I'm the one whose energetic and jumping and screaming and talking lol...I am just saying my experience ..Not that yours is the same !
@@princessjoe834 i am like this too bruh,but i don't rly think about it,alone time for a while is good,but when it's too much alone time? existential rage
That is not uncommon.
I think I get this too! I like being alone more these days because last year I fell out with a big group of people. But when I see my bestie I get energetic, as you say. Then I think I'm annoying because I get all chatter box 😂
It makes sense. Maybe you getting energetic is a subconscious reaction to spending so long not socializing? Like, socializing is an instinct even for the deepest introverts. I'm usually pretty quiet and non-social but the moment someone shows interest in a subject I'm also into? I can get chatty to the point of losing my voice when usually, I wouldn't converse much with anyone.
I have depression and social anxiety but as a 13 year old I’m only seen as a moody teenager and it honestly hurts that I don’t feel like I can talk to anyone about it.
Fr like I was not diagnosed or anything but I can't cuz my parents don't care about those things and if I would say that I would want to go get checked and see if anything is wrong they would yell at me and then later on make fun of me
I would like to help you guys really understand what is depression before making it so hard and difficult for urself. I am saying this out of compassion. Just please don't believe what others say. Even this channel. No one is 100% right. Some of the research cannot be or never be 100% true. Be receptive. There is always a way to solve problem. But if you only believe what this video say then it will be hard to look at things as they are and you will make it more complicated there are so many possibilities. Watch this video if this can help you understand what is depression. kzhead.info/sun/m96vhJSusGeZnX0/bejne.html

It's awful when people dismiss some mental illnesses and call people "moody"
@@sparechangesomesparechange6532 same. They’d just say I’m exaggerating and belittle me abt it. There have been so many times they have done it alrdy I won’t be surprised. That’s probs why I hate it when ppl say “those 13 yr olds self diagnosing to be trendy” .... pls that makes me so shitty I have depression but probs some slight anxiety and... definitely PTSD. (undiagnosed) But self diagnosing is good if you’ve done PROPER research abt it and observe yourself. I mean self diagnosing myself made me less-helpless. I always felt like someone is wrong but idk what was wrong . I had weird dreams and when I looked into it, it kept telling me that I’m stress, I have to figure something out, something is blocking me from moving on But I don’t know what RHE hell is going on I WOULD go to a doctor or therapist but,, ehh honestly. It’s gonna cost a lot and sometimes it might not even work so now I’m not rlly interested in getting a proper diagnosis or therapy. (I mean I could go myself but I live in a half-developed country and it’s quite unsafe for a minor to go alone unless I’m familiar with most of the ppl there and it’s near) I also don’t have allowance so 🕴🏻

I can relate. I have been diagnosed depression and anxiety on May. Me think : Maybe it's normal to be like this as an human, with INFJ personality (NT loop, overthinking, and surely other INFJ things) There are personalities who are more prone to mental disorders.

What I've learnt: I haven't any personality disorders What I've realized: My personality is just crazy
are you alright? -monica
Yes, it's a joke :)
I feel like ADHD is very important on this list. A lot of people don’t find out until later when it becomes bad. It can also just be perceived as inability to focus.
i got diagnosed with adhd 4 days ago. can confirm its so overlooked. ive been told these same things all my life. youre just lazy, you have so much potential you just need to apply yourself more, try harder, what do you mean you cant start a task right now quit making excuses, what do you mean my breathing is distracting you and you cant read a single sentence because of it. god the list goes on and on
I was diagnosed with ADHD when I was 5, and I totally forgot about it until like a year ago
God i may be on a waiting list for a year and im about to turn 30...people assuming I don't listen breaks my heart! Edit: Let me correct myself i was officially diagnosed with adhd at age 6 in france but in the uk...there is no medical evidence of it...therefore zero support. And I was born here.
At first, people just assume that I'm chatty and loud. While that's true, there's more to it than that. That's kind of how my hyperactivity manifests. Then people just think I'm a little weird when I make random animal noises; again, that's true. Again, there's more to it. I promise that in my brain that random "meow" was COMPLETELY in context. Most people just don't know how to follow how my brain works. That example seems specific because it happened today. One of my classmates was talking about cats! Hence, meow. It wasn't out of context; it was probably just a little odd. My friend in that class certainly thought it was.
I’ve had adhd my whole life and I wasn’t officially diagnosed until I was borderline failing my senior year of high school. It made me happy to see it included in this video.
The reason why most of these get mistaken is because of 13 year old teenagers self diagnosing them to be "quirky" And because of these people, the people who actually have these illness suffer and get accused for "attention seeking" or fakers And this being the case, the people who have them don't open and share their feelings with other people and keep suffering
Exactly I am not trying to be quirky I'm daignosed need special help and see a specialist. I wear awareness bracelets and when people ask about it and I say: "Oh yeh I have this mental illness" I get either awnser 1: "Oh another one" Or awnser 2: "Oh" And they will treat me diffrently but not the good one
fr
Yes my brother clearly has problems but he won't talk about them because of the Internet. I think I'm the only person he ever opened up to and I can't get him help because we are only teenagers so I just talk to him.
At this point I think a lot of them are just histronic, and if they knew that this thing exists they would probably use it for having more attention
Exactly. A lot of serious mental disorders have been dramatised as a result of some TV shows among other things and whilst it has helped to remove the stigma surrounding mental health, it has also caused some people to take it less seriously.
I wish videos like this had been around when I was younger because I'd have probably reached out for help sooner. I'd always just assumed that I procrastinated because I just wasn't much of a go-getter & that I was shy. It was only at the end of 2019 when I had a complete breakdown (having just graduated with my masters & with no job lined up) that I ended up being taken to see a doctor by my mum and was diagnosed with clinical depression & social anxiety. The subsequent therapy that I've been through has helped me to realise that they weren't really personality traits but symptoms of mental health issues that I'd been suffering with from childhood.

Nice :D
im surprised the part about adhd wasnt about laziness. a distracted personality can be confused but in most cases, were less likely to be seen as just a distracted person, but instead lazy. because of our executive dysfunction making it hard to start and finish tasks along with getting distracted from a task and procrastination we get blamed for laziness so often. i struggle with severe executive dysfunction symptoms from my adhd, and before i was diagnosed it was always: quit being lazy. you have so much potential you just need to apply yourself. just try harder. why wont you do what needs to be done. to this day i hate being called lazy, even when im actually being lazy, because of how much ive been called lazy while actually trying my best to do things
In my childhood and teens my parents kept calling me "lazy", when in reality, I was just depressed. None of us ever suspected a mental illness. When you have no energy to even start tasks, no motivation to keep going, and feel tired and exhausted all the time.. how would you be able to do much at all? Hope things get better for you and you can get the help you need!
felt.
I’ve always been shy but recently I’ve realized it’s become more than that at some point and I have social anxiety. I can definitely attest to the similarities and how they can often be confused
Its nothing wrong with being shy:) I think you are an introvert.idk
@@breadoflife7775 I think I’m an ambivert, honestly probably leaning more into extrovert. I really rely on social interaction to recharge, which I’ve noticed because my social anxiety has really deprived me recently.

I would like to thank you for making this video. One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone says they have a certain disorder and they self-diagnose themselves. It frustrates me saying people gloat about a disorder that they dont have. Now I have a video to show to those people who do that. To those who actually have a disorder, you are loved. You are not a freak or weird you are a human, some people don't get you and they belittle you because you where born a certain way. But know you are loved by someone and they loved you for being you.
Maybe they can't afford to pay for a diagnosis or their legal guardians won't allow them (assuming you don't have a national healthcare system) and they're doing what they can to cope? Perhaps faking a disorder is part of a disorder in itself...
My opinion i think you can self diagnose yourself if you’ve done a lot of research about it and if youre not doing it for attention some people cant afford to go to a doctor and some cant speak up or tell their families cause they won’t believe them
@@bella7955 I agree, but self-diagnoses hold no weight.
i'd like to thank you for your comment and your time to watch this video. much appreciated! -monica
I would say I relate to too many of these and I can't ever go to get evaluated, as I have also been "gaslit" by "everyone" in the "system", as well as "persecuted" by them? And I don't need and/or want "suppressants"?
"It's important to have empathy in these situations." My narcissism and severe lack of empathy: *Yeah, we don't really do that here.* Also narcissism sucks by the way. But mine is tamed down because of my social anxiety. While other narcissists may be loud and damanding. I subley hint that I'm better than others and don't care if I hurt others to get what I want. I didn't even realize I had it till recently and thought about how badly I may have hurt others. Except whoops. My lack of empathy. I know it's wrong though so I'll try to stop but not because I feel bad. Because my perfectionism makes me want to be a perfect person, and I hate being called out for my flaws and causing drama. Which will happen if I'm rude to others and brag about myself. But at least my mix of perfectionism and Narcissism makes sure my grades are high constantly because I need something to be better than others to make sure I have a worth. So there's my benefit. In other words I have a couple issues-
Ive found my twin.
Sounds like covert or vulnerable narcissism.

Histrionic personality disorder... That just answered so many questions that I've been asking about somebody I really loved who I just never felt appreciated me or loved me because they took over my home, constantly blew up at me over small things, and made me out to be the bad guy to their friends to avoid telling their friends the truth: that he was blowing up at me and putting hands on me when he didn't get his way. I thought he was just a narcissist and spent the last 6 months crying over how stupid I was for falling in love with/trusting another narcissist. Now I know that he wasn't intentionally using me, and that alone is a huge weight off of my self-esteem. This video has helped me immensely. Thank you for all that you do.

Thank you for the major depressive disorder one, my parents tell me I'm just lazy and unmotivated for not getting out of bed even to eat most days in a depressive episode, like they genuinely don't understand I sleep for 14 hours but still don't have the energy to get out of bed because it takes so much effort
I am actually medically diagnosed with major depressive disorder, adhd, and ptsd. I watch these to see if people do know what these disorders really are. You did a pretty good job with summing it up.
Thank you so much for making this video, you guys! As someone with clinically diagnosed social anxiety and dependent personality disorder, I can personally say that many people- without intending to- misunderstand and downplay what mental disorders really do to a person. If I'm overly anxious at a party, I'm told to "lighten up" or "chill out"... and if I physically can't make a decision alone- such as choosing what to eat for dinner- many people react with straight annoyance. The thing is, I can't help it- and they don't understand that I have no control over things like that. I think most people who suffer from mental disorders fight similar battles, in this regard- and unless somebody experiences them for themselves, they will never understand what it's truly like to have those demons on their back. This video does a perfect job of explaining what to look for in a disordered person, and how to accept and understand how those disorders affect said person in their day-to-day life. Thank you so much!

Why does my mom scold me so much when I don't decide? Like I know it sounds weird but I feel scared of making decisions.. It hurts my head so much and when my mom scolds me I end up questioning myself and even if I wanna have a talk with her I can't because in anything I say, she'll start finding faults in it... I just need a person who will listen to me till the end and help me out after I speak everything and not start scolding or making me feel invalid.
I would say to explain it to her, but by your tone,doesn't sound Luke she would listen. Why don't you write it to her as you did here, and tell her this is how you feel sometimes, and you would prefer a more open and communicative relationship.
@@sueenglehardt1858 I mean yes I've tried that before but after she read it she came back to talk to me and still started finding the odds in it... I can never talk about all this properly especially if it leads to all this and moreover I'm a bit scared of criticism too... When I was about 5 years old I hated losing anything so I simply stopped participating but I haven't ever gotten any help. So now I am kinda scared to talk about this to anyone at all and now I can't talk to my friends about it too because of covid we can't meet and I prefer talking face to face about sensitive things so it really isn't possible till schools start...
Wow, I thought I would never find anyone that feels this way, so lemme just say that you’re not alone on this. This sort of thing messed me up so much. I always hated it when I got yelled at over every mistake I made from teachers and my parents. It got to the point where I constantly feel like something awful is going to happen whenever I’m trying to make a choice that I’m unsure about. I really wish more people try to look back on their temper and realize how it affects their own children. Honestly, I don’t know what you should tell her since trying to convince people like her can be very difficult. My initial solution was for you to talk to your school counselor and see if they can actually make your mom understand what you’re going through. But since you said that your school is still closed... Yikes, idk. Maybe find a way to email them?
@@ayowhatthefunk4809 yeah you're right but also I can't exactly contact the school even through email now because it's summer vacations and nobody in school looks at the emails so I guess I have to wait till the end of the summer break.... But anyway I'm trying to distract myself from all of this by doing things that I would like to do (I'm learning Korean, Spanish and Japanese these days) and I take a paper and start doodling when I am stressed because it kinda makes me feel better for some reason so I think when you are stressed or feeling awful just try and distract yourself because at least it helps you for the moment and lowkey puts you in a good mood... Anyway I hope we can get over this soon and make our family understand.
@@natashamathews6182 you're certainly not alone. My mom was the same way. Was so bad I didn't learn to cook until I was on my own.

Maan, the new animation style is fireee🔥🔥🔥🚫🧢
Thank you :D This means a lot
I love how you get different animators for different videos for variety and just being awesome 😁
I have 1, 2, and 4. (OCD/perfectionism, depression/procrastination, shyness/social anxiety disorder) No wonder I’m messed up most times😅. THANK YOU FOR HELPING SPREAD AWARENESS THROUGH THIS VIDEO!! It really makes a huge impact, and supports me when I feel lonely stuck being in myself with no one to express or understand my problems. Here’s to a better day tomorrow!
I absolutely love the art of this channel. It's fun and cute, but the narrative also makes it educational. It's a wonderful mix. And I love this channel in general.
So glad these videos encourage seeking professional help with mental illness. Mental illness needs to be treated just as importantly as physical illness. Those of us who grew up in a household where we were told to just "suck it up", "you have nothing to be depressed about" "you're just being selfish and lazy" " you're just doing that stuff to get attention" "you better act right and not be a bother to people" etc.... found ourselves on the hamster wheel of damn if you do and damn if you don't among family and friends. In my case my survival and healing happened because of my faith, and it led me to take the steps of growth and action of understanding and what I need to do to feel better. I'm not where I need to be, but thank God I'm not where I used to be! Every one of us have very special gifts and talents put in our soul to be significant in the world, a purpose of helping others and ourselves. Having a mental illness is journey to navigate, not be condemned for or shunned for.
the animation is sooooooo super smooth with your new animator. Great job animator
I know this is a super serious video but the Leg Miku drawing absolutely took me out lmfao.
Same here shiteyanyo made me laugh as well
Day #5 asking for this because I really think I need help, sorry kinda selfish. Hello! Can I suggest an idea? I am either way so yeah- I keep feeling guilty for this. Can you make a video for compulsive liars? Or just liars in general? I lied about who I am and got friends because I lied, I stopped everything and apologised to those friends. But then, I kept dwelling on that, they forgave me and they said they liked my personality. But now, I've realised that being friends with them brings me back unwanted memories and I can't forgive myself. My sibling showed me an example to try to help me. They said "Your shirt is blue." my shirt was turquoise so I said "It's turquoise but yeah." they said "No, I lied to you." then said "Do you forgive me?" I said, "Yeah. That doesn't help me what I lied about wasn't that minor." then they said "Yeah, that's how minor it was to them though." and that helped me alot. But now, it keeps reccuring. I can't forgive myself and I question why I deserve happiness.
Hey here's a suggestion, i went through something like this so... Plan a day to sit with them together and talk about things, usual things and deep conversation, hangout more and know each other better. Really enjoy being around them. It would result in u not caring about those memories as u would distinguish them with these real ones.. That's what worked for me . Really hope it works for u. Let me know how it goes ok, Take care..
And yeah u deserve happiness, You're a kind soul.

I’m super glad that Bipolar Disorder is getting the awareness that it’s getting, and the differences between someone with Bipolar and without. I don’t feel like people talk about it enough, and don’t take it seriously when they say that somebody else is bipolar when really they’re just talking about general moodiness. As someone that had a father with Bipolar disorder and grew up with him my entire life, it always gives me incredible second hand annoyance at the complete obliviousness that people have when talking about serious disorders such as this. Thank you Psych2go for doing what you do and bringing awareness to all things mental, you’re helping a lot of people in doing so.

Me after watching this video: I think I need to go to therapy👁️👄👁️
I'm searching what to analyse with these videos because my therapists don't know what to do with me and it takes so much time to understand what is happening. 'was diagnosed with depression two years ago but it looks different know, and we have to search again. So, my best encouragements to everyone who is struggling with their doctor to find what is happening : we'll get through it. It takes a shit ton of time but it will come. You are brave.
Thank u, you're making such an incredible work! Thanks to this I can be more understanding about the different mental desorders and I know now, in a simple way, how to recognize the symptoms
*Disclaimer* I'm not trying to self diagnose here!! So I've been worried for a couple years now, that I may have adhd. And at first when I would think this I'd just tell myself "no, you just get distracted easily, you're fine." But then at the beginning of 2020 I downloaded tik tok, and somehow my fyp became full of ADHD tik toks (which I know isn't always accurate information), but after watching several videos of people with ADHD talking about their symptoms and struggles, I started to notice that I heavily related to a lot of them. So that's when I started watching videos on youtube about ADHD, and doing a little more research. And every single time I watch another video where they discuss "are you just distracted or do you have adhd?" I always relate to the adhd side significantly more than the other. But then I started talking to this guy who had adhd, and I asked him what it was like, and told him that I suspected that I may struggle with it. I just wanted to hear his point of view, so I could understand it better that way I'm not still thinking I have it, if I don't. But he told me that I don't have ADHD because I do well in school, so it's not possible, and he said that I'm not spontaneous enough to be dealing with it. The thing is, I have to work 10 times harder than all of my friends, just to get the same grades as them because I cannot focus on the teacher's lessons while she's teaching it. I will literally sit there and try to repeat every single word in my head and still my brain won't comprehend it. I have to review and learn everything by myself and on my own time. And a lot of the time it feels impossible to get myself to learn it because I know how hard it will be, so I just push everything off until the last minute because its exhausting trying to get my brain to work correctly sometimes. Anyways, I don't really know what to think. Sometimes I wonder if my dissociation and trouble concentrating isn't a symptom of ADHD, but rather ptsd from my childhood. And maybe I relate to so many of the ADHD symptoms because of other mental illnesses that have the same struggles. I guess I just don't want to go to a professional about it because I've had multiple people struggling with ADHD tell me that I don't understand them, and that there's no way I have it.
This is the best channel thanks so much for your contant furthermore the new narrator voice and the previous one is soo calming and cute

As someone who has been diagnosed at 24 with ADHD and Depression, the procrastination and ADHD parts really hit home. As soon as I did get the diagnosis I could finally put into action effective treatment. And while I am now 4 years onwards I still struggle with Procrastination more than I should but never the less I do have the help that I need to get on with it.
This has really opened my eyes
Glad your eyes are opened! Now open bigger hehe
@@Psych2go lol
Lol
:o A new voice! Cute! ❤️❤️
Lily's been with us for a while now!
@@Psych2go that's what ya get for using one voice for the majority of videos. Gotta figure, there's people who've only seen those videos.
@@Psych2go Im quite new, sorry about that ;w;
@@Resident--a Time to introduce new Vo's haha :)
@@mafuru Oh no, don't be sorry! The !!! made it sound like we are mad when we are not haha. Welcome to the channel Gummi. :)
This is a specific topic I really wanted to know. By the way, Psych2go has been one of the aspects that helped me beat depression! I’ve been “out of depression” per say for almost a year now, but I still watch bc the videos are still helpful with life. Thanks so much to you psych2go 🥰
it hurts having to wait to get diagnosed. i’ve only been diagnosed with General Anxiety & then got switched to a Panic Disorder. i almost got diagnosis with Depression but i had to lie my way out of it because i know i would get yelled at and mocked. even if i was able to get diagnosed, i wouldn’t be able to heal from it. i can’t heal when im still getting treated the same way i’ve always been. cheers to anyone going through something similar.
I have a doubt what subject r we supposed to study in 11th and 12th grade to study Psychology? OMG I have never been so early
Psychology can be thaught in middle or third grade since their age can understand those.
I got diagnosed with depression along with separation anxiety and lately i haven't been sleeping very well and i cant let go of only horrible things I'VE done and i always tend to copy people's accents and even their walk without knowing I'm doing it and it drives me crazy
I’m looking at this for my friend to help her and encourage her to ask her mom to get some help, since her mental health is decreasing, a lot. Let’s just say, this helped a LOT. Thank you so much🙏🙏🙏🙏 I’ll try and convince her to tell her mom about this! Also, if you’re wondering why I thought her mental health has decreased, it’s because she told me she wasn’t planning to live to age 30, she procrastinates on so many things, isn’t the same as I remember her from before quarantine, and, well, she grabbed a pair of child-proof scissors, in the middle of class, and scratched her arm with it. There are many other things that make me worried for her mental health, as well. Now, if you ever feel unloved, alone, or any of that, please know that there will always be someone out there for you!
I found it is really fun to see different arts style in every video it is so cute❤️love this ver style and the small chubby ver too😍
Life: choose your fighter Us: well i don’t really want a figh- Life: CHOOSE YOUR FIGHTER OR JUS IMA CHOOSE FOR YOU
3:38 It's important to have empathy in these situations When you don't have empathy
Love the information, love the animation, love the anime references!! This is so great!!
this was an amazing video! congrats and thank you!
I had been confusing my social anxiety with shyness until now, thanks psych2go for clearing my doubts... I thought something's wrong with me, i don't wanna be shy I don't wanna be like this i want to talk, interact with people ,go out in public & participate in social gatherings... But i can't
tysm for making vids like this
I feel as though I have almost all the disorders mentioned in this video. Your video helped me better understand myself. Thank you! I love your channel I feel like I should keep quiet off the comments but right now I feel the impulse to make positive comment off my input. And I've held in that you are very informative and you help me. Thank you!
This actually helped me understand way better . I came here because I figured maybe I had something cause everyday people keep asking me “What’s wrong with you” “why are you always in a bad mood” why are you always mean?” And it makes me more upset which causes me to lash out at them and then they just think im a bad person/Friend. This happens especially with one of my friends whom always ask me to get them something. Whether it’s a highlighter, a pencil, the paper we were supposed to grab- I tell her “Get it yourself!” And then in a bad mood for the rest of the day . I automatically get in a bad mood all the time just randomly- on day I’ll be happy the whole day and then it just goes down hill for the rest of Week. I thought it was just my personality changing and me just getting older. But the more I think about it the more I worry about it . I’ve also noticed patterns in how I think. Some days i tell myself , Should I eat breakfast today? Should I eat lunch today? And other days i tell myself, I wish I could get both!! Because I’ve been struggling with my weight and I’m super insecure about it but no matter how much I tell myself I shouldn’t stop eating I also tell myself “no, you need to eat!” My parents try to make me feel better by telling me “Your not fat at all honey, did you know muscle weighs more than fat?” My dad says it a lot. ❤ it makes me feel somewhat better but the only times I fell good at school is when lest say, the own time in ELA when I was the only one in my class to get masters (and only missed one question +The best score) out of my entire class. I was super proud of myself that day. But I switched ELA classes because my teacher wants to become a principal so now she’s just a super visor and studies and stuff. It’s not that my new teacher is mean , not at all she’s super sweet . It’s just the kids in the class… they get me a bad mood and then I’m in a bad mood just like that. As soon as I walk in , automatic frown. Dunno why though. And when I speak do some odd reason I speak when everyone else is also speaking and then everyone silents and looks at me . Idk why.. it’s super strange and just makes me mad. I’m gonna stop typing now cause no one is probably gonna read this.
Social anxiety is what I have in the past. Just need to overcome it by keep try it out. 👍
Most of the time, especially when I was a kid, everyone always see me as a shy person. Now, I'am already working and was able to seek help with a psychiatrist, I've learned that I actually have a social anxiety.
I love your videos but i especially loved this one! Good stuff!
i was misdiagnosed with major depressive disorder for 3 years because i thought i just had an impulsive personality. when i finally ended up telling my psychiatrist about my silly "impulsive moments", he explained how hypomania worked and that i might have bipolar disorder. turns out-- yep! and it makes a LOT more sense than me having mdd. the reason it wasnt found out sooner though was because i was being treated for mdd and taking multiple antidepressants to help my depressive episodes, but it in turn made my hypo/manic episodes turn to almost complete numbness due to an overproduction of neurotransmitters. which in turn had me taking higher doses of antidepressants since i thought these were just strong episodes of breakthrough depression. we've since lowered my doses by a lot and i'm now taking a mood stabilizer along with them which is helping so much better lol
a lot of my teachers tell me, u are just introvert, reserved or quiet. until one of my teacher in high school tell me YOU ARE SHY, cuz if u just were quiet, u still can do your presentations, but u can't. Me inside of my head: (the school psychologist did not tell her that I was diagnosed with social anxiety disorder)
Don't worry about that, we are all living in a judgemental society:) Take care of yourself
Early + huge fan you helped me alot
Hello!
OMG hello!!!!!
3:06 is me for most of my life at school and I unwind and reflect on what I did that day to help calm myself,but i couldn't let my guard down at home now cause of either my parents or my sibling barging into my room and sneaking up behind me, not giving me time to prepare for a civil conversation, then I lash out even if I try not to, then they accuse me of hiding something even tho I'm not, now I feel like my room isn't safe anymore even when my door is closed because I'm just waiting for one of my family members to slam the door open, now I stay up late at night just to feel comfort in my room where the door is closed at a time when I am sure that no one will come in and disturb me. I also didn't get a lot out of therapy since I was careful with what I said, since I was afraid that the therapist would tell my parents.
Thank you for talking about the difference between shyness and social anxiety. It’s two completely different things.
2:12 IS THAT HATSUNE MIKU😭😭👌
seems like that 😭
It is rip
This video, like all the other videoes on this channel are great, but I just keep laughing at hoplessness ( 2:30 ) I know it's silly but it made me smile :) Edit: When I was little, before I was diagnosed with autism, a lot of the kids at my school were diagnosed with adhd. If you did badly in a class? ADHD. You didn't pay full attention to the teacher? ADHD. You seemed to have a lot of energy? ADHD The only reason I never got diagnosed with ADHD (Which I don't have) if because I did well in my classes and the teachers liked me. Looking back it is horrible that my school and county went by saying that if you have ADHD you cannot do well in class or in life as a child. I am not in the buisness of self-diagnosis but often I find myself relating to symptoms that link to major depression or depression unspecified disorders, but I dont know how to begin talking about it with my family. I am 19 years old and there is depression in the family, but I still dont know how to begin the conversation. If anyone has some advice for me, I'd appresiate it a lot.
Here's something you could check out. Now, I have Auditory processing disorder, and I have been misdiagnosed with having ADD more than two decades ago. APD and ADD have parallel symptoms with each other but APD is an inability to process sounds like other people and it effects the way people think when noise are present. Discovering the difference after so many years, I was able to tackle it effectively by training my weakness when dealing with noise levels, asking people to dictate clearer for you and finding a quiet place to concentrate on work that requires thinking.
I watched and now I'm convinced I was and am depressed because I spent 13 years with a psychopath. Each one of these disorders were a part of her personality. I've never met such a caring person with so many issues...
Sees perfectionism vs. OCD: *laughs in autism* Sees procrastination vs. Depression: -laughs- *cries in procrastinator that got depression* Sees distracted vs. ADHD: *laughs in autism again* I should probably see my doctor soon
same. there's way too oh sh*t. oh god. help me. no, me, my brother is not summoning demons. stfu, me. sorry about that. AS I WAS SAYING, there's way too much new information.. ;w;
Of course, those don't bother you (aside from your discomfort with ridicule about it). For us who have OCD, it's a whole other thing.
As they have already said, DO NOT USE THIS AS A SELF DIAGNOSE!!! Btw, I have a question. If smiling can make you happy when you're sad, why do I feel weird when I grin with big eyes, then laugh (barely audibly) maniacally, then look up?
i just tried that and now my brother's la244yghtee24122ffdui at me
You always have the most calming voice artists in this, it's nice
I love how you call them artists because thats what they are
Thank you for helping me figure out symptoms for all these years
Okay, But the Paranoid one described me so much I-
SAME, THE 'scared others will use your word against you' HAS GOTTEN WORSE SINCE MY PARENTS CHECKED MY ELECTRONICS AND SAW THINGS WHICH THEY MISUNDERSTOOD AND TOLD ME OFF FOR HELP ME AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA sorry.
@@metra8604 Thats different, you are reasonably anxious. Not paranoid
@@chase4412 it has been like this all my life. although i do understand where you're coming from, it's always been horrible. it's just gotten worse because it actually happened. for me, it comes like a gut feeling. so i trust it. since it actually happened, im not going to stop listening to it. i think that makes it a lot worse. but i don't care. if it keeps me alive.
@@metra8604 That's rather trust issues, but considering PPD has trust issues as symptoms of the disorder, it could be it, but remember, if those ideas and perceptions of the world affect your life and your relationships in a very distrustful way, and you're (over) 18 then they could be personality disorders. Sometimes Personality traits to the extreme can become personality disorders. E.G=(clingy, needy, people pleaser= Dependent Personality Disorder; Shy, Insecure, Neurotic, Overly Sensitive=Avoidant Personality Disorder; Untrustful, paranoid, Suspicious=Paranoid Personality Disorder) So it might just as well be a Personality Trait rather than a whole Disorder
@@user-pn6cs2di4m ok, i just have trust issues then. makes sense. a hell lot of sense. for now, I'm a normal person without any disorders. if this is still happening over 18 though, im not worried. besides, if it is a disorder it'll probably go away by itself lol
