Answers:
Don't think you're 'mentally retarded' because you feel you can't go to school. It's hard to actually tell if somethings wrong because I don't know anything about how you feel at the moment/have been feeling. You really need to get out of the habit of convincing yourself that you have a mental illness; even if you do you can get help for it and it's not healthy for it to consume your life like this. You also state how you haven't been out in 4 months - why is this.? Do you have friends.? If not, then I suggest going out with your family. If you're having problems with either of the two then please tell someone because things don't get solved untold. Therapy would be good for you in this situation. If not, are you anxious about going out/to school.? If you get physical symptoms e.g. stomach ache when you go outside and you want to rush back in then it could be that, or maybe a symptom of agoraphobia. I urge you to go to the doctor in your situation, it's the best advice you'll get and it will be the first step to doing something about this. You will get proper help going there and you'll also get a diagnosis for what's going on. Oh, and remember that the internet can't say what problem you have (The research you're doing) A professional needs to see you in person and make an accurate evaluation of your symptoms. Good luck.Health Question & Answer

You've taken the first step in recognizing there is an issue. Now take the next step schedule an appointment with a mental health professional who can discuss the issues with you and help you work through them. Sounds to me like a combination of anxiety and depression which will require some professional assistance but can certainly be dealt with so that you can live a normal and productive life.Health Question & Answer

First of all stop trying to self diagnose yourself - that's for the professionals! You need to go to school. Get out and see people. You are too closed in - that's why you are obsessing about things. You need to have noise, people and life around you. Go out and see what's out there. Enjoy yourself. Good LuckHealth Question & Answer

First I'd suggest turning off the internet,
take a shower, and go for a walk,
And don't watch tv!
Then bring it up to your parents and talk with them about how you are feeling.Health Question & Answer
