Depression, social anxiety, neurasthenia (funny, oldfashioned word for oversensitivity).

I wasn't diagnosed with anything. I wasn't necessarily taken to the doctor even when I had a physical illness or injury, much less for any mental or emotional issues.

Being weird.

Around 1979 I had an 'incident' and was taken to for some tests. They put electrodes on my head and maybe something else. I was declared normal. The funny thing was, I was getting bored so I started tapping my foot against the wall, the doctor came out and said hey, stop that. LOL right then and there, that is a tip off of Autism, I was stimming.
