I work with the elderly. We got a new director of nursing who moved all of the staff who works with our alzheimers patients to another unit. She put people with no Alzheimers experience over there. She doesn't understand why the patients are "acting up" I try to tell her and she gets upset saying I don't go with the flow and I'm not a team player. What the heck?

I just got diagnosed as being bipolar and I'm having a real hard time with it. Right now I'm very down. I haven't told anybody in my family because they wont understand and will either think I'm crazy or think nothing is really wrong with me. I'm mexican so alot of it has to do with the culture.

I've only told one person, my best friend. I really didn't want to tell her because I didn't want to worry her or burden with this. I've been doing research and people with this disease are not the easiest people to deal with. She wants me to go off on FMLA but I don't know if I can afford to do it financially.

Work is stressful, I'm on call 24/7 so I really don't have a life. And I'm not speaking to my immediate family. I just feel really alone. It's making me think what the rest of my life is going to be like now that I know that I'm bipolar. I'm scared. I don't want to get locked up or put the people that i love through hell.

I'm in pharmacy school @ Ohio State and just LEFT! I didn't even bother to go to school to drop out, I just stopped attending. I have probably the most stunning 4 year old son on the planet (green eyes, dark skin, curly hair, smart, just perfect), and I have no idea where this has come from. I guess I'm depressed but I'm not sure because I've never felt this way before. I never thought I'd have to turn to medicine for help but I think I might have too because I don't even want to try to feel better. What medications are good. Anyone know anything about St. John's Wart? Do I even need medicine. Please help.

Think about this for a while. It kind of hurts your brain. You go into a mind tornando. Round and round.

More specifically, one where your back was being tickled or messed with in a way that caused it to ...not itch, but feel wierd. I wake up from these bending backwards to ease the feeling, and it takes a few moments for it to go away.
Also, dirty dreams where you swear you can feel it, or food you can almost taste.
I figure the first one has something to do with muscles or nerves, but wouldn't mind a more in depth description of what's going on. And what about the other ones?

When I get spurts of depression, I like to go sit on the ground by a stream or lake. It calms me down.

My mother was physically & emotionlly abusive. She used to tell me when I was little 'no wonder no one likes you', she told me my friends were using me, she called me pizza face when I had acne. Top it off kids at school made fun of me, told me I was ugly & stupid everyday, I had 1 or 2 friends thru school. As an adult I don't deal with conflict well. Very self concious about myself & the way I look. After 19 yrs being told u r a certain way it is hard to believe otherwise I'm 25 now. 6 months ago after a fight with my bf & us almost breaking up, I went out with friends we were drinking when my one friends bf made a comment I was a dumb blonde, he walked by me and messed up my hair. I went into the bathroom to try to fix it, I looked horrible. Thru the night he called me a dumb blonde and continued messing my hair, another friend confronted him in front of my friend, he said right in front of me that I was ugly and that I had shitty hair. I got really drunk that night & wanted to die.

..psychiatrist? Who would you recommend a troubled teen go see? I think my sister might be depressed; she doesn't have a problem with substances or with boys though. She just have some issues with her self image and not enough motivation to do anything (my family is from another country so her parents are unsupportive & unresponsive to her). Our insurace website offers search for different types of mental health care professionals and it's confusing? There are Licensed Marriage/Family Therapists, Licensed Professional Counselors, and then there are also Psychologists & Psychiatrists. I don't want to drag her through different sessions just to find someone to work with.

Thanks.
