'Becoming mentally ill' was a hideously bad choice of words. I just feel like I'm having extreme cognitive dissonance, and I've lost my faith in basically everything.
Well, that's not a good sign either, and your choice of words is erratic at best. Moreover, the whole post seems overly dramatic, and saying things like "no such thing as a competent mental health professional" sounds like paranoia. I'm not trying to insult you, but if a trained professional thinks there is something wrong with you, is it possible they might be right?
Take care, and get help if you need it.
I was pretty emotional when I wrote this, and the 'trained professional' didn't do anything more than rifle through my paperwork and demand proof that I didn't have Asperger's (which he promptly proceeded to ignore).
