emotional problems
I used to have too many emotional problems as a kid.
My parents split up when I was born, albeit never got divorced.
She wanted to have an abortion, but he locked her down so that she didn´t.
What for?

I don´t know how I managed to end up addicted to heroin, crack or a combination of drugs. However, I have been flirting with alcohol for years. I had a couple of panic attacks. I´ve had obsessive compulsive behaviors since junior high school, which only got worse after the Covid-19 outbreak. I cannot stop washing my hands.
All these emotional problems also affected my personal relationships, including work. I became oversensitive to criticism, a perfectionist, and due to that, a serial procrastinator.
Being shifted from one school to the next one, in different cities, of course did not help. The instability only increased the mountain of emotional problems.
Have I developed a mental illness, after years of not fully becoming a drug addict, but not exactly a sober person either? What is the best kind of therapy to deal with emotional collapse?
