What Causes Emotional Disturbance In A Person Suffering From Anxiety?

Hello i was wondering if you could help me. I think i have a mental illness the doctor said its just anxiety but i think otherwise, i am like two completly different people when im myself im happy and enjoying my life but on the other hand i am such a horrible person i say and do horrible things, think even worse things all of which i cant controll, i can change from being happy to hating myself and life in a split second, i feel asif sometimes i dont even know myself, i have had a very hard upbringing and think it might be why i am like this. I am struggling to undrtstand this and find ot extreamly hard to speak to someone about it. I hope you help,Thanks

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. Self assessment of Emotions, thoughts, obsessions and feelings may not be always correct. You must give this duty to your friends or relatives who are close to you. Ask them to observe you whenever possible. Let them say about your behavior. If they say you have all the problems you narrated here, you definitely need psychology treatment. Not because you have mental disorder, but because of your behavioral and attitudinal problems. Psychologists use different psychotherapy methods to correct your attitude, behavior, emotions etc. Such a treatment is called Cognitive Restructuring.

Good luck. Take care.
