I am 28 years old and have been seeing my current therapist for about a year now for depression, social anxiety, general anxiety, and very pronounced low self-esteem isssues. He is the 6th therapist I have seen in my life--I have literally suffered from depression/anxiety since I was 5 years old, and over my lifetime I have been on a total of 12 antidepressants/antianxiety meds, including Paxil, Buspar, Wellbutrin, Serzone, and so on. This list includes benzos like Klonopin, too. NONE of them have helped for longer than a week at most, some had no effect at all. In addition to therapists, I've seen scores of medical Dr's to try med combonations, and to rule out other physical problems, but no luck.

With the therapists (including my current one) I have tried a variety of treatments, (EMDR, CBT, psychotherapy, etc). During our last session, my psychologist said that my condition seems to be "non-biological" and unable to be treated medically.

What does this mean??

Are there any real counselors who actually try to help you figure out what your or doing wrong in your life or why? Why your unhappy and what you can do to change that. I have went to a couple of different ones (at least 4 visits to each to give them a chance) but all I find is someone who either just listens and nods their heads or my current one who I think I know more about then she knows about me. She spends most of the time talking about herself and even interrupting me to give me more info about her and I actually PAY to talk to her.

I know there are real counselors out there I see some excellent ones on Oprah but how does one go about finding a good counselor without paying out the nose trying out counselors over and over?

How do I stop my mind from going into overdrive when I am trying to go to sleep? It's not just a few thoughts, it seems like a million. Sleep meds help, but I don't like taking them. Any suggestions?

I have been on 2 lots pills for depression none have helped.
I have seen more people but they say there is nothing worng with me and I need to get out more but I do I work weekends and 2 days in the week. but just end up cry and puking at work. I have given up on docs now no one can help me.
My old self well now I think about it I can't remenber who that is.
I live with my mum and dad but there always at work and I only see them for 2 hours at night.
There are some really good places in the U.S that could make me better but I don't have that kinda money. Yes sometimes I do wonna die and have tried it in the past everytime I go to a&e they say they will get someone from the chisis team to come see u. what a joke and let me home again. If I had the money I would be in hospital care. But no I live here where no one will do anything. what do i do?

The more i think about suicide, the more tempting it gets. It's just a simple solution to .. every problem. I don't want to wake up again feeling depressed, making myself throw up. I've had it. I'm done.

Dropping them is not an option, although I would like it to be. Requesting to be moved from this contract with the client is also not an option with my boss. It is more stress than it is worth but right now I just need some serious answers. THANK YOU!!!

(P.S. There should be a "work" category in yahoo answers under people's respective fields. Hey, we all get by with a little help from our friends!!)

I take "anti-depressants" but they don't work. My parents say they do, but they don't know how I feel. I'm not suicidal. I never have been. I would just like some help.

Its hard for me, I cant blame it over stress but sometimes all it takes is just a stupid insignifficant comment and I will be set off. I am not saying in a crazy way. But I will begin to say hurtfull things to that person. Who ever it may be. Freinds and Family. Its funny how we are good at solving other peoples problems but when it comes to our own we are kinda lost.

Why do I let petty things bother me so much. I have a problem with worrying. Is this something that is genetic or overtime has it just manafested itself into an unstoppable monster? Thanks

I remember all about where I thought of a really good idea, what I was doing at the time when I came up with the good idea, and saying that good idea to myself over and over again so that I wouldn't forget it, reassuring myself that I wouldn't forget because it is such an easy concept that I'll remember it anyway... but in the end, I always forget.

It makes me want to flip over tables or something, and slap my head off its neck.

I always forget important stuff that I come up with while I am driving my car.

Shoulda wrote it down!

But what can I do to remember it now?

I'm really scared of bugs, every time I see one, no matter how tiny it is, I'll just freak out. Especially when they occasionally appear in the kitchen, I'll totally freak out and fear to go into the kitchen anymore. How do I over come this?
