Lately, lots of the hobbies and fun things I have liked to do are, well, not so fun anymore. I enjoy exercising and jog and bike ride but their not fun anymore. Not even video games! I find myself really bored and have no idea how to entertain myself. I'm not depressed or anything so what could it be?

About 18 hours ago I had an anxiety attack and took 2 mgs of Ativan (which I thought was one, they changed my dosage apparently).12 hours later I took 2 mgs more. Apparently that was too much because I've been in bed all day. My head and body are aching. I called poison control when I discovered the dosage but they said it was nothing to worry about and not worth going to the hospital over. Anyone have any suggestions on how to get rid of this awful feeling?I am going to my shrink on Thursday so please don't be concerned about follow up. Thank you so much! (By the way, I wasn't in any way trying to kill myself, just get past a couple of bad anxiety attacks.)

I think I have social anxiety. But my mom won’t let me see a professional to see if I do. She tells me to just get over it. She even got mad at me and said I’m making fun of people that do have problems. But I want to find out, but she won’t let me... She doesn’t know how I feel. I’m not good around people; I always feel horrible and just want to run away. I hate being alone, but I don’t make myself sick when I’m alone...

Been to psychiatrists and psychologists and been on meds for two years. I have fleeting thoughts of suicide for brief moments at a time. My wife can't seem to understand and has her own drinking problem that she is in denial about. The kids have to put up with their verbally abusive alcholic mom. Job performance is way down. I have to take care of my elderly dad which is something I have to do rather than want to do. I have lost interest in doing much of anything. Not sure where anything goes from here. It all seems so hopeless.

Like for 5 months now I go to work and I just feel like crying every morning, then get through the day somehow, and anything, even paying a simple bill, seems impossible and requiring too much energy. So I just lie in bed, on and on. How do I deal with this?

It was like someone slipped me something trippy. Although that did not happen. Was at home with a normal day. Mind started racing like it would when you can't sleep continued through the night 100 miles an hour, no sleep, continued into next day, finally went away. I have never had anything like that happen. I could not calm it down no matter what. Tried slow breathing and could only concentrate on that for a breath or two and then on went my brain. The only thing I have found that fits with what I experienced is Post Trauamtic Stress disorder, but nothing out of the normal stress had happened. I just don't want it to happen again. I thought it was not going to stop. It was very scary. Any ideas? Anyone else ever experienced this?

hi a girl said to me the other day when i was talking about my problems, her answer was, and although it was helpfull and kind i felt really bitter, because although i already no this she said, "it sounds like you have gone through some bad suffering needlessly" and it brought it home to me that i have suffered for an incredible amount of time since i was 15 im 29 now, and i feel really bitter and resentfull that i have suffered and gone through the mill with my mental health problems. i feel alone in my suffering like its just me thats suffered to this extent, when other people in life dont suffer at all, and have fresh fulfilling lifes and get their needs met. and they look fresh and baby faced like i once was. and the more i feel low and angry about it, the more it is you seem to see people happy laughing and giggling. and im struggling on feeling isolated and alone

There is no happy ending. I'm 28 years old and I have been single all my life. All I want is a girlfriend and I've always believed that it will work out in the end but now I'm older and wiser and I realize that it won't. There is no happy ending, so don't answer me with, 'the right one will come along' or something like that, because I know they won't.

I'm not one of those suicidal people who come on here crying, but if it all ended tomorrow I wouldn't mind. My life's not going to get any better, only worse. I know that I have nothing to look forward to. It's like there's nothing to live for and yet I keep on living. I don't understand why I am alive and being made to suffer so much.

So what do I do? What do you do when the only thing that could ever give you peace and make you happy is not obtainable? I'm just so sad and over everything and I've tried so hard in the past, but now I'm just an empty shell watching a clock.

I can't ever be happy and I'm only 28.
What will I do

Hello out there,
I feel that i live on borrowed time. Every day that passes i know that it is so and that is should have been dead long ago. If it were not for the money and connections of the most unlikely person to help me, i would never have known my illness and as my doctors now tell me i would have been dead if i hadn't done anything back then. The person who helped me never asked for the money that literally saved me. She is very kind, but nevertheless i feel that i owe her. this is not my problem though. My problem is that everything deteriorates inside me. My thyroid cannot be handled any better that the doctors can manage, i have amenorhoea and the breast cancer that almost got me might just catch up with me.
Tell me, if nature did not see me fit enough, berhaps i should have died and not live on like this. Whats eating me is that if that person was not there that day then i would have died! I live just because of a coincidence and it feels like i have borrowed this time..

Even just thinking about them makes me very paranoid. Im absolutely terrified of them. I had to run out the office sreaming at work the other day because somebody who didnt know about my phobia offered me a cup of tea. Even when I have to walk past the teabags to get to the coffee at the supermarket I turn into a quivering mess. What can I do? Do I need counseling. Please help it making my life a misery.

I don't have to go to work in the morning or anything as I work in the evenings but sometimes I just find it hard to get up. I make big plans on what I am doing the next day , especially if I am off from work that day and I say I am going to have a full day but then when morning comes, I keep hitting the snooze button and dread getting up. When I do get up , I drag around all day and don't enjoy doing the stuff I planned. I hate sitting around the house but often find myself rushing through my activities so I can get home. Why am I like this and does anyone else have this problem?

Does anyone have OCD in which they have to do things such as touching objects a certain number of times or moving objects about. If don't do this they think something bad is going to happen to their family or themselves.

Ever since I was little, I've been really scared about death and dying, not of my own death, but death of a close friend or relative. Is this normal for a seventeen year old girl? Why do you think I have these constant fears?

Have you ever notice people that are a little off you can tell it in their eyes? Very much like their personalities are smashed up against a clear glass? I've notice them with the devotely religious people and female psychos. Tell me what types of people you can tell are crazy.

Over years I have learned how to completely control my emotions. I get this feeling inside and if its not what I want to feel i turn it off. Like remorse,sadness,anger, and sometimes happiness. I know that if I ever hurt anyone I could turn all emotions off. (not that i would hurt anyone) But Im almost obsessive over controlling me emotions. I used to sit alone for long long periods of time.I believe i trained myself to be the way i am. And i wouldnt give anything for it. Ive gotten into fights when I was younger and never felt bad for what i did. Thanks for your time
