Mental Health - August 2006

I have some knowledge of the disorder, but definitely not enough to make any determination.

I am extremely paranoid that people know what I am thinking. It doesn't happen all the time, but when I am thinking something mean (example: A lady I work with was being rude and I was thinking "what a witch." Then she looked at me and I was convinced she knew I was thinking that) or thinking something I shouldn't, I'm always afraid that people know. It has gotten to the point where I try to consciously change my thoughts so people don't know I think negatively of them.

I don't have a lot of money to go to a psychologist or a psychiatrist if it is just me being a hypochondriac. What are your thoughts?

My entire family have seen signs in my boyfriend of drugs use. And now that I think about all their points, I agree he is using drugs. From gridding his teeth to scrubing dye off his face until he bleeds. How do I confront his problem, and have him admitt it?

If you could destroy a person without being caught...would you? Ex-hubby broke my kids hearts-they called him daddy for half of their lives but now he wants nothing to do with them...it has been over a year and they are still angry and hurt...and he could not care less. I really want to hurt him.

So sorry if you found the question offensive, but I think that was quite mild considering some.

Grandchild is 11, female. Afraid to sleep alone or go into rooms alone. Seems to be getting worse. She is on medication for seizures and AD. Can the medication be causing these fears?

I always change directions, have difficulty focusing on specific tasks and feel depressed with anxiety.I feel that I always look out of the box and neglect my job at work. Is there something wrong with me? if so, what can I do correct this problem that is haunting me daily?

Note : I have been through about 15 different organizations during my career and always look for quick get rich schemes.

I am having a hard time dealing with some of my past, as an abused child, then abused wife, now injured and recovering adult, I find it hard to look inside and see what kind of person I am, or even on a more basic level, who I am. Does anyone else feel this way, or has felt this way in the past. I could really use some insight on dealing with childhood injuries as an adult and discovering myself now. I want to be able to say "Hi, I am Crystal" instead of "Hi, I have been hurt all my life". This is a more painful process than I thought and my road to self-discovery is not straight and smooth. Anyone with some insight or advice please?

I am still in love with my ex and he keeps me hanging on although he tells me that he is seeing other people. We both enjoy each others company and laugh a lot. He is over seas at the moment and I miss him so much. I know I need to move on but I don't know how to do it, I still want to be friends with him. I don't feel that I belong anywhere I only came back to live in this area because of him and I don't want to go back to where my parents are because there is nothing there for me either, what am I supposed to do.

I’ve have been engaged for ten years, My Fiancé has always had an obsession with surgery and large breasts and as a present about seven years ago he said he wanted to buy me breast implants. I’m terrified of all things medical but I went from a 38B to a 38D to please him. He is so obsessed that he wanted me to go even larger and recently under his constant pressure I gave in but the size he pressurized me into I think makes me feel embarrassed to go out. I’m now a 38FF and I feel like a freak when I go swimming or even sit down to sun bathe they look so unnatural and with so many men making comment and staring at me. I love him very much but if I wanted them reduced I’m worried I would lose him but my own life is a misery I can’t find clothes to fit properly for my small frame and the person I’ve become is not really me. I seem to cry all the time but he seems happy and I so want him to marry me. He humiliates me in jokes about my breast size in front of others but in private he talks about me going even bigger and I don’t know what to do.

Im going out with this guy and we get along great. We are also talking about long term commitment & marriage. However theres this one thing about him that does not rest well with me - He tends to laugh more or less depending on how i react.... that is, if i find something very funny he will find it funny too and if i suddenly stop laughing he will too. I have tested this phenomena and it is definatly the case. Its like i almost dont know who he really is – and as if he can make up, fun & laughter so well. It is quite scary but else then this issue (which is mainly in my head only) we get along just fine. Just so that you guys can assess better; he is a very intelligent & successful man and not a looser.
Could it be some psychological disorder? Is he a very very smooth talker? Is he great at hiding his true personality? Or despite his intelligence & doing well in life, he is insecure? Need your views and advice - Thanks!

Has anyone not taken their meds for Bipolar (cyclothymia) disorder?

I have limited choices in the meds I can take, due to other medical conditions. So I took some for a while, got heavily depressed, hallusinated and then stopped taking them.

Are there good ways of copeing without meds..?

How is life living with what you have..?

Is seeing things is the corner of your eye, (or not in your direct vision) a Hallucination.

This happens very often, many times a day. It makes me move to look, as i don't know what is there, and it is moving.

Then there is nothing.
