Dear Poppy24
We are pleased to see you here, thank you for posting. As you can tell from the tone of Shell’s greeting there is no need to worry about kindness, all we would like to do is help.
Having two people that love you is gold. If they are different from you it can be frustrating, but in the end it is their desire for your happiness that wins, not the differences.
As I’m not a medical professional I have no idea if anything related to Grave’s Disease is present and influencing you. I do know that the symptoms of that disease can be agitation, anxiety and depression.
If you put pressure on your loved ones that’s called ‘getting support’, a most necessary factor needed in your life.Perhaps talking to your Mother mightn't be such a bad idea - you would if it was a physical injury like a broken leg, why is a mental illness different?.
Although you have said you sought help and ‘spent thousands’ I’m not sure if you meant in relation to hormonal problems, or anxiety and depression.
As you will be aware there are treatments for these two illnesses: GP, psychologist, meds, therapy, lifestyle, self help and support.
Perhaps you might like to say more about the treatments you are undergoing, or have undergone.
Pardon me if I suggest things you have already done, however looking at The Facts menu towards the top of this page gives information about Anxiety and Depression, their causes, symptoms and treatments, including self-help such as Mindfulness.
Similarly browsing this Forum in the Anxiety and Depression sections has many people and tips about handling these conditions.
As Shelly already suggested perhaps leaving a more detailed message in Dr Kim’s thread might be worth doing.
In any event please post back – as often as you’d like, you will be sure of a gentle warm reception.
My best wishes
Croix
