What are these signs of?

Question

I was badly bullied a long time ago. What are these symptoms of:

1) going bed very late and waking up before my alarm

2) dreading going to school and intentionally going late to every class so that a teacher would be there

3) not caring about things I usually love

4) emotionally numb all the time

5) big weight loss, people said I looked way too thin and it didn't look or seem right

6) afraid to enjoy things because I'd always think "this good will only be temporary, things will go back being bad pretty soon so best off not enjoying it so that the disappointment of being back to reality won't be as painful"

7) walking for hours alone, feeling lost and confused but not knowing what it was

8) I ALWAYS had to have gym schedule, not to enjoy it but was obsessed with not putting weight back on and "undoing my hard work" even though I barely ate at the time.

It was a pretty weird and scary time internally wise, can someone please let me understand better what it was?

*** Happiness and Self-Worth
Vital to happiness is a feeling of personal dignity, or self-worth. Because of human imperfection and the resulting weaknesses, some have a negative view of themselves, and for many, such feelings date from childhood. It may be hard to overcome entrenched feelings, but it can be done. The solution lies in applying God’s Word.

The Bible explains how the Creator feels about us. Is not his view more important than that of any human—even our own? The very personification of love, God looks at us without prejudice or malice. He sees us for what we are, as well as for what we can be. (1 Samuel 16:7; 1 John 4:8) In fact, he views those wanting to please him as precious, yes, desirable, whatever their imperfections.—Daniel 9:23; Haggai 2:7.

Of course, God does not ignore our weaknesses and any sins we commit. He expects us to try hard to do what is right, and he supports us when we do so. (Luke 13:24) Still, the Bible says: “As a father shows mercy to his sons, Jehovah has shown mercy to those fearing him.” It also says: “If errors were what you watch, O Jah, O Jehovah, who could stand? For there is the true forgiveness with you, in order that you may be feared.”—Psalm 103:13; 130:3, 4.

** So learn to see yourself through God’s eyes. Knowing that he views those who love him as desirable and that he has confidence in them—even though they may view themselves as unworthy—can do much to enhance a person’s happiness.—1 John 3:19, 20.

You're becoming a sociopath if you're not already one I know exactly what you're talking about because I went through the exact same thing as a child a lot of mental and physical abuse I'm 60 years old today I never had a normal life I never dated I have only one child I had only one woman. I don't hang around with people or keep friends I stick to myself.

I have no desire to form relationships with people.

However I have no desire to injure or to cause harm to people that's called a sociopath.

Unfortunately there are people that were injured in childhood that go on to want to hurt everybody and they're called psychopaths

They are signs of weakness, you are afraid of confrontation, probably because you don't know how to face it.
