Help!!!!


My story-please, I'm desperate

ever since 7th grade I feel like my life hasn't been quite right. I went from being in many activities (cross country, travel soccer, swim team, indoor soccer, club tennis, and hanging out with friends) to a total recluse and playing video games. I now think the reason was because I had no energy. At the time I became a recluse, I was in pretty good shape though..sort of. I was the fastest runner in my gym class but although bf% read as 22% (dont know if this is relevant). My face has dramatically changed into a dull and pale complexion as well.

I never really tried (academically) in high school but people said I always looked stoned or would ask "what's wrong?". I dreaded going to school everyday and it was torture more than anything else, mainly because I was so tired all the time. I'd take naps every day when I got home.

This fall I was accepted to a prestigious college and started having problems to the point I had to temporarily drop out. I wasn't doing homework, wasn't studying, couldn't pay attention, stopped even going to class, and this is aside from the fact that I wasn't enjoying the "college experience" at all. I just felt so "bleh" all the time. I called my parents saying "there is a big problem with me and it needs to be fixed".

So I withdrew and long story short I saw three psychiatrists, two pediatricians, and a psychologist. All diagnosed me with depression/anxiety and a possibility of ADD. It was very frustrating because in my mind, I feel like something is causing the depression. It's definitely not a sad feeling, its more of a rational thought that why should I live anymore if I feel so "bleh" all the time?

Recently, I've been looking into alternative diagnosis (I dont really trust doctors) and I came up with hypothyroidism, and my blood is getting tested for that now as we speak. But today I was bored and made a list of all the symptoms I felt that I had.

Here it is-

out of breath
tired a lot/no energy (even to talk)
apathetic/depressed
trouble concentrating
weak
little muscle mass
palpitations
get overheated easily
feel lightheaded after standing for a while, feel like not enough blood is going to brain
pale/dry/scaly skin
irritable
used to have a problem with gas in high school, happened usually everyday and was pretty uncomfortable
itchy anus

I typed a few into Google and worms came up, and I identified most with hookworms. Also read that hookworms are found in subtropical climates. Low and behold, I went on a summer cruise to the Bahamas in 6th grade.

I was really excited because I feel like it fits the puzzle. The only thing that doesn't make sense is I haven't ever really seen anything in my stool. But I went and bought pumpkin seeds (roasted and salted unfortunately, so stopped eating those), garlic pills, digestive enzymes, and carrots.

I only started today but I have a massive headache (maybe from not eating), and I cannot remember the last time I had a headache. Does this mean anything?

I am so ready for a cure...but I'm also getting hungry.

any opinions/suggestions/support greatly appreciated
