I recently discovered that I may have "Social Anxiety Disorder", and I would like to see a doctor about it. The problem is .. I don't have insurance, My dad was telling me that churches have free/cheap clinics you can visit. Are medications for these types of diseases avaliable through these clinics, or do they only provide medicines for sickness (ex. Flu/Cold/Allergies)? I know this may sound silly, but I am already scared to see a doctor about this, and would at least like to know that I'm not asking something stupid at this clinic...

I feel like a failure........?

ok well sometimes i just feel like im going no where in life and that i will end up like my half-brother: a 30yr old drugie. Thats not what i want to do or be. I sometimes feel like a failure because i dont meet up with my parents expectations. They want me to be more helping around the house, which i am but it gets to the point where i just want to have some fun, im 15.

I mean whats the point of life, go to school for 12years and then hopefully go to college, and graduate. Then maybe if your lucky enough get a job in your major,because not every graduate is guarenteed a job in there major.

I ask you....why is this? Whats the point of life?

Have you been depressed for years and just grown used to it, like learned to cope with sadness and live your life just enough to get by? Anytime anyone sees how you feel they become concerned, but they really shouldn't worry, because happiness happens so rarely that you don't even miss it?

This really gets on my nerves. Is anyone like me? I don't even generally like happy, peppy people. Is that something wrong with me? I wish I could find people who were comfortable with the dark side of life and didn't seek drugs or anything. I feel so alienated all the time, I suppose thats part of the problem.

I've been drinking for 3+ years, at an average of at least 1/2 bottle of Vodka per day. I drink this much on normal weekdays and still go to work in a perky mood... on weekends I drink at least one full 1L bottle per day, including Sundays. I've been doing this for some time already. On labor day of 2007 I found myself drinking 3 full bottles of 1.75ML of Vodka and realized that 3X1.75L = 7 regular (750ml) bottles of liquor). I still woke up fine the next work day. Now, after several years I am finally feeling the soar... strong abdominal pains, lack of sleep, pain in the liver, kidneys, stomach, and chest due to the 2 packs of smokes a day diet. Can't sleep on my front because my abdomen area hurts. What are the symptoms of liver cancer or cirrhosis that can apply to me? If any...?

I know it's ironic asking this on a computer, but I figure I might as well try to solve it now rather than later.
I always spend my time on the internet, and lately this website has been doing most of the damage. I can't just turn it off because I need to use the internet for study and job searching. However I always end up here.
I have acknowledged my addiction and tried taking Dr. Phil's advice but it's not getting any better. Is there anyone out there who can help?

I know eating before going to bed is bad, but if I go to bed hungry then I either can't sleep or I sleepwalk, but I'm trying to lose several pounds before Thanksgiving. What are some good light snacks that you can eat before bed?

(I never liked yogurt, so anything but that)

Thanks!

i've been having sex with my one boyfriend for about two years, and it's never hurt. he's pretty well endowed and today when we were having sex it hurt really deep and bad when he went in far the first few times. after a few minutes it didn't hurt anymore. there was no discharge or blood, but it's never happened to me before i was wondering if theres anything i should be worrying about with deep pain for the first few seconds? =(
