I think ive got mental health problems

ok first im 22 male aries, i live with my family....

my problem is that i think im tree different people ive heard if you think you are you cant be is this right?.... im thinking of getting help but dont want to waste time if im just being stupid and its just normal to be like this

person number 1

at home i dont say a word im really quiet cant even keep eye contact with my family or anyone that comes around to see my mum or stepdad, i stay up stairs in my room i only come down for drink and food, i can go days without talking to my mum which has made her think im super shy ive over heard my stepdad saying i must be gay i think of killing myself and day dream about the worst and sick ways i could die its like as soon as i enter the house my mind changes! i tend to talk to myself and sometimes forget im talking to myself and not a real person.

(about a year ago)
my mum saw me walking around the garden with my rifle and 2 knifes arging with myself a few weeks later i stood in a river up to my neck to think things over, back then i was taking a class drugs so i thought that was just normal i then stopped taking drink and drugs a person like me shouldnt drink...

person number 2

if im out with friends im loud,funny will do anything for them, people who first meet me tend not to know what to think... like if im drunk or really like this normally, i even go down town sometimes (not much) on my own and met new people and normally have a even better night out, im heart of the party! people can come to me when there low and i can cheer them up only if thay knew my problems maybe thay wouldnt want to know me? maybe even be shocked..

person number 3

at work im down in the dumps i hate my life im very low and dont really want to talk to anyone yet within a few secs i can go from this to loud and happy and making jokes of my work mates and say what i think without a care in the world,the people i work with say i cant be right im so unstable one thing to the next... pasing up and down like a animal

do i need help maybe i live inside my head to much and is why ive sat at home and writen this if someone asked me who i was i really wouldnt know ive just always thought im 3 different people if you asked 3 lots of people what i was thay would say 3 different things maybe ive wasted my time writing this and i should just go on? i dont think i can handle this kind of live style anymore, it would be better to die and come back as someone else

thanks for your time in reading this...

    I really think you should at least see a counselor or therapist. The reason I say this is because I read the part where you mention wanting to kill yourself. ANYTHING that makes you want to kill yourself is worth getting help with! Everything else might be livable for you, but seriously, it really can't hurt to find a good therapist or even a psychiatrist if it gets worse. But a therapist can't give you medication, so that's the best way to start, at least in my opinion ^_^

    You are both depressed and quite normal. I think you should see a therapist for help with the depression, but there's nothing wrong with you that can't be fixed. :) Think about it this way -- if you have reasons to feel unhappy while at home and at work, does it not make sense that you act differently there?

    I think you should live you parent's house and find an apartment for you to live by you self. Not being too involve in your house can be a problem related to you dad absence or because you don't feel comfortable with them (your mom and your step-dad), they might use to criticize you when you were younger. Find you own place so you can be you self at home.

    You are like that with you friend because you are not afraid of their judgment,they make you feel like you are a part of the big family that they form. you feel more confident with them.

    Maybe you are doing a job that you don't like, so find something else. You can change something that you don't like. It is not a matter of staying there and have an anger against they others, who might enjoy they work. And saying what ever you want will not make them see you any better.

    You should find a way to conciliate your three behaviors. You are not three person, you just have different behavior according to where you are and people you are dealing with. You are the only one who can help your self. Don't expect that everybody will understand you, no. anyway it never exists. I thing, keeling you self it not an option, it is an act of cowardice, even with all those different opinion that you bring up around you, every body will say that they new it, you were a sick man.

    would you give them that victory, I don't thing so. So get up and make the change.

    I think you actually might be bipolar. Something at home is making you unhappy...something there isn't resonating with you. The fact that you swing from "down in the dumps" to all happy and funny at work tells me you have an imbalance,and it sounds like a type of bipolar. You also sound like you may be having some anxiety especially at home and at work. Get to a dr and tell them how you are feeling. They will give you something to help. Also ask them about counseling. Good luck!

    I can relate to person one... who sounds like they have a real case of depression and should look up those symptoms.... But for real this is sorta normall beacuse most of the time ppl in general are very different with there families compaired to being out... you need to get a GF and move out dude... its your best bet :)

    and if it makes yoiu feel anybetter i dont know who i am either... imfact i have a friend and she is like family to me... but she sais the longer she is getting to know me the bitchier i am... and when i meat new ppl i am a totally different person... the key is to stay in control...

    this is common, but not normal.
    these multiple personalities of yours--it sounds like you may be bipolar. my brother is too, and he's been doing much better lately, ever since he's gotten treatment. i highly recommend for you to seek professional help. it worked very well for him, it may work for you. good luck

    You have most likely experienced some emotional trauma in your life and the way that your brain helps you to cope is to dissociate yourself...Basically it is like a fragmented soul breaking you off into different parts. Not quite multiple personalities because you are aware of your different sides. You are most likely emotionally stuck in time somewhere with each part. When each part comes up, ask yourself who you need to forgive in that place of yourself. Then, do your best to let go of each person and the offenses done to you from each part or 'subself'. I am doing this right now and it is very helpful. I am doing it under spiritual Christian counseling which might be different then the way you might choose to go about it, but I would encourage you to seek help. It is pretty normal and I would say that a high percentage of the population are dealing with very similar problems. It is just that people don't want to admit they are going through that stuff too.

    Well i used to be like that, but not anymore.
    it definitely is NOT normal, but i think it is better
    to be rare and different without being depressed.
    to me it sounds that you dislike being at home and like being out with people, and getting to know them.
    So It doesn't sound normal but to me it doesnt sound that bad.
    To other IT WILL cause u were talking a bit about suicide.

    you should talk with someone that you think can advice you well, like a friend or uncle or someone that will have a long chat with you about your interest and stuff and then you can both choose if you need professional help or if its only something that will fade with time.

    sounds like your bipolar or maybe have anxiety problems? i suggest help if your willing to let them mess around and try all different meds on you? its not fun but it is worth it id say (i have anxiety depression and am bipolar: woo triple threat)
    but i wouldnt suggest the hospital! honestly they make it worse and so do group therepy type things. (being around other people with problems tends to rub off on you, plus making friends with suicidal people can cause lots of worries!)

    You're perfectly normal. I'm guessing you're not very close with your mom. Try and talk with her, and get to know her. She'll get to know you, and you and her will be more comfortable around each other. Also, do this at work, and slowly you will see yourself become someone with ONE personality. :)

    The thing about bein different people in different situations isn't so strange, but that you think 'it would be better to die and come back as someone else' and that at points you hate your life and want to die sounds worryin, is there anyone you trust you could talk about that to? You sound depressed, would you consider seekin help from a doctor/ therapist just to see if there's anything that can help you?
    Also, the thing about your friends not wantin to know you if you have problems would definitely not be true if they're good friends, choose your oldest/ closest friends and confide in them how you feel and they won't reject you : )

    1 and 3 sound the same

    and 2 only exists with friends.

    im guessing you dont like your family or job, but you do like to hangout with your friends.

    so basically you are happy when you are with people you like, and unhappy with people you dont like.

    sounds normal.
