i often feel that someone is watching me or something is behind me. it happeneds alot when im alone or when im about to go to sleep. i know that part is normal but what scares me is that sometimes its so bad i cant move or when im alone i run really fast. i love swimming but i get the feeling something is in the water. i'm soo scared of swimming over sometime big. when i used to go tubing i would be terrified of swimming over a large sunken ship or a large fish.

i have a normal social life, other then i feel like i dont really want to hang out with my friends. i dont hate them i just normally not want to go out.
i've also been having frequent mood swings.
this may not help but about a year ago i was suffering from bulimia and anorexia.

i know its alot and maybe its all normal but maybe its all related?

I've heard how people have had seizures but aren't necessarily epileptic. Some is from drugs/medications, & I also hear how stress can trigger it off, too. What are other reasons?

For a few months now, whenever I try to urinate I have trouble and have to tighten my muscles. I am a guy if that matters. Could this be serious?

Hi I'm 14 male, 6 feet. I think that i have blood circulation problems. Everytime i go to my doctors we talk to him about the problem and he check my blood pressure and it is fine. When i play sports my face has always become very red. I know lots of people who become red when the do sports. I am not so worried about this. Another problem I have is that while playing sport my hands become amazingly red. When i put pressure on them the become sheer white. I also have a problem that my hands become really blue/purply and my hands are really cooled. I also have resolved to sleep with thing gloves and big woolen sock to go to bed. Because when i woke up in the morning my feet and hands were really cold. I have never had any health problems. I was just wondering if anyone knows why this happens and if it has to do with my blood circulation and what I can do/take to solve it. If anyone knows what kind of procedure or doctor I should see would be helpful also. Thank You

I have Anxiety and have been taking Celexa for about 4 days, i had a lot of Deja Vu before starting taking the pills...but now it seems it got worse (really worse) , i'm afraid i might go crazy or i'm already crazy. Is this just a symptom of anxiety or something not normal? I've also started getting some nose bleeds (about once a day) since i started taking Celexa. It's really scary and it triggers a panic attack...
Please tell me what you think before telling me to go to the doctor lol.

Anyone have personal experience with these?

I have a respiratory infection and the Dr. prescribed Phenergan w/ Codeine for my cough. I usually get this prescribed and it has a sweet fruity taste but I went to a pharmacy closer to home this time and this one tastes very bitter. Why would it taste so different? Does it differ from store to store or did they screw up the prescription?

I was wondering if a dermatologist can take one look at your skin and determine the extent of sun damages, Can they also take one look at moles and skin lesion to see if there is any possibility of skin cancer. Is it stupid to not trust your dermatologist?

In the age of computers and huge health insurance companies that records your health from birth to death, the invention of readily available non-emergency medical centers (aka doc in a box), and the vast available doctors in any large market ... is there any reason to have a ralationship with any one doctor anymore?

I'm 16, I've never had an eye-test or my eyes checked. I have difficulty seeing far away, everything seemed to blur together, but when I get closer it focused. I discovered that if I cover up my right eye, my left was blur in an out no matter how close or far away I am, it'll try to focus, but it never is clear. I discovered that if I cover up my left eye, my right one blurs in and out but not as badly and it'll focus close to clear and if I'm close to what I'm seeing, it doesn't blur at all.. Could I be nearsighted..is what my eyes are doing normal or should i get my eyes checked? Also, I tried on a person who is near-sighted glasses and I saw clearly.

I play varsity basketball and i have been getting extreme shortness of breath, dizziness, rapid heart beat, shaking and trembling, blurred vision, intense chest tightness (feels like somebody is stepping on my chest). I have collapsed twice and fainted once during these episodes. I have already had an ekg, echo, and have been to a cardiologist. Results came back to be normal. I have always had shortness of breath during sports but i do not have asthma. I am only 15 years old and today at practice i had another episode. My doctor told me i have something called vasovagel syncope. I agree with her i might but ive been researching for a few months now and it seems my symptoms are muchh more extreme then vasovagel. I have no idea what this is but its getting brutal. When i walk up a flight of stairs i become out of breath and dizzy and i am not out of shape to the extent or at all. After the results came back i thought i was good to go..guess not..PLEASE leave your opinions on what this is
