Mosquito bite like a rash after few days?

Excuse how yellow my camera makes everything, but I was bit 6 times by a mosquito that got into the house almost 3 days ago now, a relatively tiny fella he was.

Only moderately itchy, my ankle itches the worst but it's only a tiny bump like a regular mosquito bite. The two (biggest and one directly below it) in the image swelled up to 2 inches wide, not unusual for me when I get mosquito bites but this fella looks like a rash now. The one below the big one is itchier than the big one which is the one I'm concerned about.

What gets a bite to look like a hickey??? I haven't been touching it all that much and it's not unbearably itchy, it doesn't even itch most times... it's just... weird looking, which is why I'm concerned. I've always been more sensitive to mosquito bites but never had one react like this, let alone last more than a day, is this any actual cause for concern?

Was gonna post on bugbites but it redirected me here, tell me if I should post there instead 👍👍

Seeing people add their location too so uh... Southeast USA??? That help somewhat? I 'unno I think that's more for identifying whatever bit ya, not the outcome of the bite.

Therapy is such a personal thing, WAY too personal. I quit therapy a month or two ago and my mental health has been rapidly declining, it's getting me concerned for my life even.

I don't like therapy, I'd even go as far to say that I hate it. I hate any doctors, really. There's something so scary about sitting in front of a person and telling them how horrible of a person you are, and digital therapy sure as hell isn't any better. It just feels so useless, what's therapy ever gonna do to help someone like me? They say a few words to you and you just lie the whole time because you don't want to get sent to a ward or some bullshit.

I don't know what I can do to help myself anymore, I can't exactly talk to anyone else about my problems either, because my whole problem IS talking about my problems. What do you even do in this situation????
