Hello. I will try to describe things briefly ... A 30-year-old man. I went to various psychiatrists and even to the hospital once for quite a long time / at my request / where they did an ECT without any visible effect. I was included in the Military Medical Academy TMS against obsessive thoughts, but something scared me from this machine and I did not feel anything as an effect of it. With the idea of getting rid of what was documented on paper about my condition, one day I threw it in the trash. I have never been able to understand in this whole story what my diagnosis is ... my pains and horrors - for many years I have been living with the thought of what bad could happen as a result of my carelessness and wrong action and the corresponding counter-thought - to look back mentally what could have really happened through my fault. For a long time I would say that these thoughts are a thing of the past. I haven't taken pills for probably 5 years. There was another problem that poisoned me, to put it mildly - the thought came up that if I was really mentally ill, would I not pass this on to children and / or grandchildren, and how the hell would I deal with that thought let alone if I don't solve this question right now, I can't look back at the opposite sex and find a girlfriend and live a normal life. Thanks! // my opinion about medications and visits to "psycho doctors" is extremely clear - this will never happen again.

Anyone can trigger a mental illness, not just a child of sick parents. There are even studies that a large proportion of people have them in a mild form, but they are never diagnosed or treated. I also have a mild form of autism, but I plan to have children, despite the risk. I advise you to overcome your fear and live the life you want. Do not hide from your fears and do not sweep them under the carpet. When you have children, monitor them for any problems and help them in time. I intend to do so.
