I have servere ADHD, Social Anxiety, I overthink a lot and I also recently found out I have asperger syndrome. It's getting really hard to go outside and my school feels like torture.

Now yes it may sound corny or something that I have depression because of these things but I do.

I just don't know how to deal with this. It's gotten to a point where I can't go 10 minutes without overthinking, thinking about will my life be good, will I be happy, would someone love me and stuff like that.

I don't understand how you talk to people and how some people are in a relationship. I don't know how to act in public, how to stay composed and look decent, I just act and feel so out of place.

Because of this, school already feels suffocating enough. I don't talk to anyone, even my Friends, because they are wayy to hyperactive and I find myself out of place. I just sit quietly staring at a wall or outside. And because of this and how I act, some students pick on me and make fun of me and it just makes it worse. I don't even feel like going to school anymore, I just wanna stay in my house and never leave.

I can't keep eye contact with someone for more than 5 seconds before I start feeling like I'm staring at them. If someone says something to me like "it's a bit annoying", I immediately start thinking stuff like " do they hate me", or "I should change myself and how I talk to people entirely".

The only escape I have for this watch movies and playing games. That is where I truly feel tension free. I stop overthinking and stop caring about what other think. But immediately as I stop, I fall back into that hole again.

I know all this may sound weird and corny that someone has depression because of this, but please, I need some help
