Haven't been diagnosed with that, but my confirmation bias lines up my symptoms with it. The sleep part of it is terrible.
your parents were acting in your best interests as its too easy to get in trouble and get a arrest record as a black person in Western society.
They probably didn't have much money or connections in the West and figured your best chance of survival is being a "goodie-goodie" and staying out of trouble. A lot of successful dirtbags have money and connections which is why they are successful being dirtbags. If you don't have those things, there is a bigger chance of success by staying on the straight and narrow path, build some wealth and then you can be the parent you never had to your children.
I'm currently in the numb stage but yeah, I'll book an appointment tomorrow.

the bank account thing definitely makes me think you east africanfeel like i wasted a lifetime trying to be a goodie goodie cause the programming of my parents. they always stifle me with everything. i don’t even have a separate bank account. and no hating but i see dudes who aren’t half as maintained eating well in life. im like what’s wrong with me?
i look at myself as a bytch on bad days like today. im too mentally unactualized and been left stranded by peers out of ego. i barely have mentorship or real peers my age group who want to key me in and help me win. they just want a leg up for themselves. so im mentally and socially lost.
im like the attack on titan looking over the corner of the tower all timid
i think my former friend was trying to mock me in the groupchat when he posted this indirectly some time ago lol. side to side he can’t offend me though, just comes off as a passive aggressive hater like 99% of folks ive dealt with

lotta east african ive witnessed have the STRICTEST parents and its somehow always with their bank or getting in serious trouble./ Out here in toronto, if they did that, it was because they truly worry about your well-being
Outside of that honestly only advice i can give is to make sure you and your boys uplift each other and dead the passive aggressive shyt. All that groupchat negative talk only leads to yall resenting each other. You seem like your quite young as well so its very natural to have low confidnece in your early 20s but having your own homies dog you prob isnt gonna help you feel better about yourself

i already moved on from those mfs a long time ago. they definitely helped ruin my confidence out here on top of making bad, emotionally reactive decisions but i still gained crazy motivation as well.

Exxfor and Latuda are the WOAT medications for me.

Effexor was one of the worst pills I've been on. The shakes, brain zaps, nightmares.
Good luck to you, breh
Was about to fall off of the wagon and take a drink tonight. Haven't had one in around 6 years, my memory is a little foggy.
Not promoting it, but I feel like a peak human during manic highs. It feels good to have everything running at 200%. Memory is snappy, my learning, writing and studying abilities are godly. Not all positive because I dropped $1500 in 2 days... then I became interested in pyro and with great regret burned an almost complete manuscript.
That's just the stuff I remember or got hints of.
Plus I don't have to sleep for days.
The come down is just as bad if not worse...
Suffice to say, this may be my last week on the outside before I do a bid. Been a long time coming.
And I can feel myself heading for another high.
