Default What do you think is wrong with you?

What aspects of your mind/body do you highly suspect has issues? Attention span, motivation, incoherent thoughts, uncoordinated/dyslexic physically and mentally, etc.? If you don't feel comfortable disclosing then obviously don't post but for those who do... just curious~ not looking to hear about things you have a diagnosis for necessarily but things you just feel are wrong, in your opinion, despite whether or not other people might agree.

For me:

-Attention span, which has gotten steadily worse. Even in this sentence I forgot the tense and context of the sentence and typed "worst" instead of "worse". Pretty bad.
-ability to speak the words formed in my mind (either it comes out scrambled a lot, words are totally replaced, or I just improvise what I see as a "topic" I'm speaking about).
-being able to read and speak simultaneously (almost impossible to do flawlessly).
-hearing sounds visually instead of representative of true sounds which makes it hard to distinguish speech and sounds in general unless intently focused on.
-Sometimes my mind just draws a total blank, and I can't continue what I'm doing.
-Being totally lost in thought/disconnected with the world.
-Waves of intense existential anxiety.
-High blood pressure and tachycardia.
-Imagined music/music stuck in my head defines my emotions a lot of the time.
-Mood swings that radically alter my perception of the world and myself which is a fuckload of irrational thoughts and feelings (very frustrating, when people are trying to help me out, nothing they do can be taken positively-- if someone says "It's okay, it'll be over soon" the first thing in my mind will be "Until next time, and the time after that, it'll be like it never went away in the first place, I don't even remember what happens when this is "over", or what my mind was like". The triggers from these mood swings can be very minor, as much as being told "No, that doesn't make sense" just because I didn't explain something right at first.
-I'm bad at pooping. I'm typing this on the toilet to take my mind off the fruitless efforts of mine to relieve my intestinal cramps.
-Insomnia/sleep paralysis/hypnogogic lockdown/REM latency/anxiety during the onset of sleep and feeling like my soul is being dissolved in acid as I get closer to being asleep.

I'll cut myself off there jeez what a bad thread idea for me to reflect on 8_8 be warned.

-Motivation = zero for most things. Bothers me that I still don't have career goals
-I hate the sound of my voice...any time I watch a video of myself or hear audio of my voice I just cringe.
-I type "haha" and "lol/lmao/rofl" way too often...in my own defense though I do laugh a lot in person so w/e. I've improved by leaps and bounds compared to how I used to post a few years ago though.
-My short-term memory is either highly selective or just bad. Either way, it's frustrating to forget trivial information that has been given to me.
-I'm terrible at keeping in touch with people. It isn't that I don't have the time, I'm just way too focused on my own little bubble to care enough.
-I have a hard time staying interested in something and often go from hobby to hobby, being intensely motivated at first but then completely being turned off from it a short while later. On the other extreme, if I actually stay interested in something, it turns into an obsession.

I think in general I'm just a scatterbrain with a very erratic attention span :/

-attention span
-listening to people when I begin focusing on something
-the feeling that the things that have been going on in the past month have been going on for a lot longer than that
-replacing words that sound or look similar with the words I mean when speaking and typing
-assuming when I talk about a lot of my perceptions that people are self-aware enough of these things in themselves to follow me

these aren't detrimental to the point of being huge things I need to fix, but these are my JAMS of my own imperfection

This is a big one for me too. I have to remain pretty reserved a lot of the time otherwise I lose people.

Blah, I have been doing this a lot recently and I get big waves of regret.

On a physical level this one in particular has been a point of interest/concern for me. I just turned 21 a few days ago, and I had a drink or two. Nothing much, and the few times I've drank before it wasn't much either. But it seems like whenever I do have something to drink I begin to have noticeable bo for the next day or so. All social implications aside (because those really only affect me and my decision to drink on a personal level), I'm curious why my body does this. It makes me wonder if my liver is having issues processing the alcohol, or if perhaps my body just handles it differently and I have nothing physical to worry about? Interesting regardless.

I can be pretty obsessive over non-essential things, and I have too much pride to talk to other people about my problems.

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with everyday
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
Thats why I need you to hear

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you
( And the reason is you ) x3

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
and the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you

Now change "you" with FFR.

Whenever I'm in a conversation with someone or a group I don't like talking because I feel like I'm going to be judged and seen as retarded or something

I don't know why I feel this

The thing that is wrong with you is your ability to be introspective and self-critical.
