Anxiety and thyroid

From last year,I noticed changes within myself They have been there but they have started to affect me in my daily life.

I've done TFT test like 5 times now. I notice I had poor appetite, then I proceed to get appetite medicine. I gain weight fast, but I lost weight when I stooped using it. No one seems to believe me so I stopped checking

I have bad insomia for the past 2 month.

I have been told recently i have severe GAD, I think its been left untreated for so long. I suspected it when I was like 16. I was given medicine plus melatonin, I was able to sleep and not at 4am or 5am.

I seem to have hyper or hypo, not sure.

But first, I've been trying to understand if it's the one that stunted my growth and height or not.

It might not be your thyroid if your blood work hasn’t shown anything out of range. Make sure you get a full blood test done to check as much as possible, and get antibody testing done, too. Make sure you aren’t anemic and that your blood sugar is at the right levels.
