High Functioning Depression

...See more I heard of this on tiktok, so I’m wondering if it is possible to have a type of high functioning depression? I think I’m depressed, although you shouldn’t self diagnose. But I also am able to function alright during the day and get stuff done. Could anxiety be a part of it as well?

...See more I’ve heard about it from Tiktok I think. I just want to understand it a bit more. I always have to push my feelings away to do all my responsibilities, but then at night or by myself I feel like numb or just want to cry or hurt myself.

I don’t know if I’m heading towards an addiction or substance abuse disorder.

...See more I’ve always been confused about the difference. But I’m kinda scared about how I feel towards weed/alcohol. First time I smoked I was already buzzed & I’m pretty sure I got super high. Second time I didn’t drink but I still felt it. Now I’ve started drinking more, putting it my coffee this week, sneaking a little at night. Doesn’t having an addict parent cause you to be more likely to become addicted too? I liked how I felt and I want to feel it again, which is a bit scary. I’m just worried that if I keep sneaking around now, when the time comes I’ll be a high functioning alcoholic or I don’t know.
