Not finding a job = psychiatric evaluation? How? Um, bad economy, highest unemployment rates, rapid approaching of times like that of the great depression, um yea... finding a job isn't easy.
And mental/emotional issues do not prevent function (in most cases). I'm bipolar and I function just fine. Don't let anyone ever suggest that you can't function because you're having issues, they're wrong and not helping anything, you know? X_x
Best of luck with it all! *big, annoying internet hug*
Psychotic disorders kind of run in the family, though. And I was having problems functioning at work, but most of that was because of my aunt and whatever else was going on.
Yes, I have displayed symptoms of psychosis before. I'll be the first to admit I hear voices among a million other things that irritate me. But I'm not a danger to anyone, let alone myself. If I were, I'd be more than willing to lock myself up in a psych ward. It's not really preventing me from doing anything, you know? It's just . . . . . uncomfortable and really annoying, at times. I'm all for getting rid of the voices, but its not something I want to use as a crutch.
Yea, that's different though. Triggers will cause odd behaviors, even in non-psychotics. I hate that term, by the way, we're not psychotic... you know, until we do something like set a bus full of senior citizens on fire or something, hah. But still.
Oh psh, I have whole arguments with myself, often in other languages. The voices keep us company, no? lol But yea, really... there's a difference between "something is off, but still functioning" and "danger to oneself and society". And you can get help for it, without making it a crutch or hinderance. Don't let someone do that, you know, unless you want to. Plenty of people love skating on their disorders, but that's up to them. Bah, hah.
I don't know, some people get annoyed by them though. I've been "yelled" at for leaving "*hugs*" or "*glomp*" in my comments. It's weird, people are weird. 0_o
Nobody else agreed with that idea. My uncle was all for throwing me into a psych ward. One of the many reasons he kicked me out. Then again, I was on the verge of murdering his wife. I feel horrible for saying it, but part of me still wishes I would've done it. Lifetime in prison would've been worth it. ><;;
I try to ignore them, but that's the thing . . . . I ignore them, they get louder and more persistent. And sometimes, my mom catches me muttering to myself and I don't realize I'm doing it until she says something. I'm not completely steered away from the idea of getting help, but my mom's on the mindset of it being a disability and . . . . it isn't. Or . . . I don't want it to be ><;;
I'm not annoyed by them. If anything, I leave them far too often. But I've never run across anyone who gets annoyed by them, though. oO;;
