I'm not aware of anyone here being a professional psychiatrist, so can't help with that. I'm only warning that seeking advice from people who know nothing about a phenomenon is generally a bad idea, even if those people have some orthogonal advantage. For example, it's (much) better to seek construction advice from an ordinary engineer that from a genius who is not an engineer.
