I have a friend that has started cutting.She used to listen to rap, like school, love life, etc.In the past few weeks she has changed. She now only wears clothes from hot topic,listens to hard rock, and as I have learned,recently started to cut herself. I can understand that the changes in style and music are normal. But the self-harming is what i'm worried about.I self-harmed and cut my wrist before and so this problem is no stranger to me. But Im scared because this new habit of hers is getting much worse in a short period of time. It has been 3 weeks and she now has 20+ cuts, doing usually 4 at once. She says she likes the pain and it feels good.The source of the problem is her boyfriend. He is depressed suicidal and uses a lot of drugs. He thinks it's hot when she cuts and introduced it to her. She thinks shes in love and gettin married w/ him(shes 14)she cuts when hes sad.Im scared of what she might to if he dumps/cheats on her.Suicide seems likely if so. what do i do?

I am sure this is too much to ask but I am so depressed and for a good reason. I am married in my late 40's with sweet wife and young daughter. I am looking for a descent job in the Baltimore area but I am not professional although quite talented but definitely under-achiever and always been looking for a dream job but never finding the direction(... I warned you it is a hard one..). It could be an old depression that blocked me from reaching my potential and dreams. But what do I do now(?)We already struggle financially and I cannot afford to make too little salary. Any professional ideas or good ideas for an old loser??? Or am I a lost case who will always be poor and miserable? I cannot even afford a professional help cause I am broke. I am not hopeless yet and still enjoy some things in life but my career and financial situation are in shambles. The best advice will be to jump from a high cliff but if you the wonderful helpfull have a better idea I will appreciate it a lot!!!

I broke it off with my GF 5 months ago after I became certain that she created or greatly embellished her problems, as well as putting herself in a situation of being dependant on me regardless of my efforts to raise her above that. The whole world was against her and she 'acted' the trouper. Now that I left, she makes no effort to hide the fact that she is telling lies, only her purpose for doing so is to be able to show family and other people how I have 'been the cruelest person in history'. According to her I am gay, a drug dealer, a thief, a manipulator, I beat her up, etc.

I am a nice guy and she played on my compassion. Now that I see her for the games she plays, she is angry at me, calling my clients, soliciting my friends for help against me, etc. fortunately no one that knows me takes any stock in her words. Still, it's damn annoying. She is using me to get others to feel sorry for her at my expense. Any suggestions?

I don't know what is wrong with me. I don't know if I need to see a doctor. I love my life, but am feeling so down. I cannot sleep, cannot concentrate and am getting nothing done at work. I am un-motivated and want to sleep 24-7. I want to lie in bed all day. I want to drive and just go somewhere and not stop. What is wrong with me? Should I see a doctor?

I have a daughter that, in her senior year of high school, started using meth. She had been prom queen, varsity cheerleader, honor role student. When I confronted her, with an intervention with her principal, counselor and my ex-husband - she denied it. but later in private with myself and my ex she admitted. She went to live with her father 150 miles away and finished her senior year doing home studies. She's come back home to live with me now twice; and each time after a couple of months, I've had to ask her to leave because she was using again, even though she denied it. Her "safe haven" is with her Dad. The last instance was early May, I had all the signs of a heart attach and had to go to the hospital. My doctor told me "she had to leave". Again she's gone and now there is absolutely no communication. She hates me. My ex, who she is living with again, won't tell me how she's doing. I'm having a tough time dealing. Does anyone know of any good books, CD's to help me?

I had non alcoholic wine the other night then had an anxiety attack.I am taking antabuse. What does it feel like when you drink on antabuse? Do you feel anxious? I know about the physical symptoms but I didn't know it could do what happened to me the other night. Has anyone known of similair instances?My drinks counsellor is certain the wine caused it because of the chemicals in it

As I get older, I look back at the events of the last ten years. I get the feeling that these happened only yesterday. But for a child, 10 years may be a lifetime. What could be the explanation of this?

I don't know what her problem is but she's getting worse and worse. She likes to make her sister cry by bighting her fingers, sticking her hand down her throat, twisting her arm, bending her fingers backwards, you name it. She even tries to smother her with pillows. She laughs while she does this stuff. Then we bought some little gold fish for her yesterday and she killed two of them by stabbing them with her toothbrush (I was busy with baby). What is this problem? What is causing it? She's getting worse, and it first started when her little sister was born.
