Not sure how you expect someone to answer this question for you without any details of what is going on. That seems more like something you will have to figure out for yourself.
How negative (I am guessing the effect you mentioned is a negative one) of an effect does this mental illness you speak of have on your job/relationships?

Seek out community mental health clinics. I think you'd surely have some in America. They're in Australia. They're a free service that allows you access to a free psychiatrist for as long as you're ill.

If it's effecting your day-today functioning, it's time to seek help.

Idk man,
I've been seriously depressed for 8 years now. I was usually good at keeping it all inside, but whenever something would come out it would usually come out in a really violent way. Arguments with people would sometimes cause me to explode into rage. I've got a handle on that now...mostly...but honestly my "manning up" and coping all made things worse than they had to be. I never wanted to talk to someone, the idea of it just felt really weak, especially cause my problems are such "bitch" problems. I'm no heroin addict, my family loves me to death, I'm fully functional physically... but honestly, if you sat me in front of a person willing to just sit there and listen to my shit, it wouldn't be long before I'm blubbering like a little baby...idk, if you feel anything like I do, then I'd say go talk to someone. I know I'm being hypocritical cause I can't get past my own machoness to go see a shrink, but shit man I don't wanna see you off yourself or anything. Just make sure your seeing someone GOOD, and DON'T let them prescribe you ANYTHING unless you seriously need it. I'm a firm believer that 99% of mental problems can be solved by making life changes.
If I sat down and as spilled my guts and all the guy did at the end was write me a script, I'd have a hard time not kicking the shit outta him. At the very least I'd get my money back...

Idk guys, I feel like ive slowly developed into a schizo kind of personality/disorder over the last 6 years. Im never happy, everything is miserable. You would never know until you got to know me. Then you would disappear from my life because you dont want to be around me. I would either make you feel uncomfortable/weird.
I cant be around the same people for to long before i become weird. Im to much to handle for most if not all people. I really know what it feels like to be lepor.
All this happens and im not sure if its just in my head or these people just dont want to be around me.
Honestly really fucking confused, lonely, and lost.
Honestly, If I could have one thing. Just one, it would to be happy again. Maybe to able to enjoy a friends company too.
