but I think i have some kind of addiction to reading about mental disorders, like there are days where I'll spend hours studying phobias. (phobias are my all time favorite mental disorder and I discovered I have 60+ phobia names memorized just because im cool like that.) That counts as mental disorder too

I have had anxiety for ages. And nobody should feel guilt for feeling depression, anxiety or whatever, no matter what your life is like. There's no right amount of badness or stress in your life to make you feel it. You don't even need anything to happen at all to feel it. It's important to know that the feelings are normal and okay, and that you're not alone. You're all wonderful people.

Sometimes I want bad things to happen to me, just that I have a reason to be sad. Pretty sure everyone feels this way sometimes. Like, if I had cancer, I could be sad in front of people and they'd feel bad for me! Or If my parents died I'd feel so bad and people would give me so much sympathy. Of course immediately you're like nononono, I would never want to have cancer and I would never wish my parents were dead. But still... So you're not alone there at any rate.

Although you really don't know how much you wouldn't want these things to happen to you. Like, if you did, you wouldn't care one iota about any sympathy you'd get, so keep that in mind. But I agree with Willis, if you got the blues, you should not feel guilty, even if you have it seemingly good. Just don't go whining about your life all the time. Instead you could just allow yourself to sleep for a whole day (it helps!), or just watch some movies/read books/listen to music and do nothing else. I think expressing distress creatively is also a great way to deal with it (painting/writing/music).

I think expressing distress creatively is also a great way to deal with it (painting/writing/music). Yeah I'm perfectly aware that I would never want any of that to happen. It's more with wanting to know that people care about you. And the first things that comes to mind, the first things that would make me feel bad for another person, would be those things. Also, if I really did want something terrible to happen that would make people feel sorry for me, I could probably just make it happen. BUT I haven't interest in doing that, nor have I ever (honestly even typing that felt weird). Those things that I mentioned are just passing thoughts, like things you might think about when you're in the shower or trying to fall asleep.

I also have that thing that I always wish to be ill or injured. I'm not sure how that's called.
