Need a Referral for a Letter
Not sure if this is in the right place. Didn't see any forum rules. Please move/update if needed bot.
I need a letter.
My family has a history of bi polar and autism (on respective sides).
Because of that, I'm worried for myself and my 3 daughters. So I've gone to see a few doctors. They all say I'm perfectly fine. Maybe a little situational depression from the 3 daughters under 3, but other than that, no notes.
The problem is, that is the worst diagnoses they could give me. I tell everyone that and no one believes me lol. I almost wish there was something wrong with me because then I could be like, this is what is wrong with me, and people would be like "oh, okay, yeah cool, everyone has something"
Both of my parents were CS so I didn't speak til I was ~3. That might have something to do with it. I have a letter from when I was 2.5 y/o that said I'm fine. But I think I need an updated one...
Any help appreciated.

Our society trains us to feel like we are lacking in some way. I studied marketing in college, and many ads for luxury cars, clothing, etc. are designed to envoke a subtle inferiority complex. If people feel like something is missing they're more likely to buy whatever they're being sold to fill that hole.
Now I'm not saying that's necessarily what's going on with you, but it could be part of it. I would recommend finding a good therapist to help you explore and come to terms with this issue.
