Mental Health - August 2006

-When a story is begun by her, the first part is said so quickly that I can’t follow the line of reasoning. And then when the story continues, since the first part is missing, the story cannot be fully understood.
-When a story is told, key words are missing to the point of not being able to understand fully what is being said.
-When I make a point, the continuation of that point is not spoken, but a new point is spoken. This new point has nothing to do with the first point, but is spoken with equal enthusiasm.
-When describing two or more people, confusion results in which person is being talked about.
I don’t know if she recognizes that she has this problem, and I don’t want to hurt her feelings discussing this, but I should discuss it. How should I go about discussing it without hurting her feelings and asking her if she realizes she has a speech problem? She is 44 years old. Thank you.

I feel frustrated (very). I feel like I want to confront that female officer and kick her ***. I was supposedly "double parked". I was in the car and when they stopped me, I was leaving the area.

It's when that panic/anxiety sets in. Well I used to take it years ago and I recently went through the same type of thing though I've been clean for years. It seems that anxiety attacks are really common but why do they happen and what do they mean because I still feel slightly "under the spell"from mine 3 nights ago. Like there really is something looming out there that I have to face. Please dont think I'm mad. It feels like I could get sucked into this other reality at any time.Does anyone else feel like this?

For a few years now, I cannot seem to find anything that interests me. I want something to do, but don't have any goals or hobbies. When I try something new I always end up feeling uncomfortable and get bored with it. Also I am quite shy so I take forever to make new friends. I want to get to know others, but if I do find people that I like I quickly become disinterested in them and distance myself. I feel overwhelmed by choices and so I can never make up my mind. No matter what I am doing I always feel I am missing out on doing somthing better. Nothing ever seems good enough. I thought I might be depressed, but I have tried 2 different medications with no effct in my mood whatsoever. I don't know what's wrong with me and I feel everyone I used to be close to is falling further and further away from me. I know something is wrong with me, but I feel helpless. Can someone please suggest something?

I've always been kind of a loner, but lately it's been getting out of control. I went to school today and I was completely terrified when I found myself surounded by hundereds of people. A kid in my class told me to stop clickling my pen, I didn't even know I was doing it, I was so nervous. I hated today, I'm almost 17 years old and I felt like a child. All I could think of was to run and put as much space between me and them as I possibly could. Whats happening to me? I'm falling apart.

I have a serious problem controlling my temper with my wife and kids. Would I be better off seeing a shrink or getting a prescription from a doctor?

I am not a total no-hoper interms of being assertive. I can be pretty confident when it suits me, but I often let other people make descisions, and don't stand up for myself as much as I should. I'm just not sure if a course like that would benefit me or not.

What's the difference between the two? Which do you think is better? Can they both prescribe meds? Do they both do therapy?

Based on previous experiences I know my boyfriend will get upset at something and act cold and distant towards me without talking to me about what upsets him. The cause of his discontent usually only comes out if I initiate a discussion. Even then,I have to show lots of encouragement and openness for him to feel comfortable enough to talk.

I know his father and his father is very passive aggressive towards others in the family,especially his mother. When some of his friends, who are a bit manipulative, get caught lying to him or taking advantage of him, he tries to talk it out with his friends. But, his friends deny any wrongdoing and will end conversations when he tries to discuss things. His friends are cutting off honest communication. They'll even punish him by not inviting him out if he pursues the discussion too much.

Can anything be done so my boyfriend can become less passive aggressive and have more healthy relationships?

I am becoming obsessed with my bf which is not bad and he doesn't see it as obsessed, he thinks it's sweet. But every second of my life I am thinking abut him, which is awesome but it's taking over. I am 16 and please don't tell me about the age cause I know for sure it's love. Since I think about him so much, when he doesn't do as many sweet stuff as 10 months ago when our relationship started, it makes me like "Does he still love me that much?". He still is sweet and I even bad-mouthed to him about this girl who was a "friend" in my guitar class this year. He only sits with me this year in guitar class but little small gestures make me wonder if he still loves me like he says he does. I broke up like almost everyday with him last year but I am really sorry and he knows that and says he still loves me and says I take for granted how he doesn't have any girl friends and that he only loves me. His mom called me to tell me he has to study this year so he can't stay every day afterschool

For the past few months, the only thing I have had on my mind is suicide. I cant stop thinking about just taking a knife to myself, or throwing myself in front of a truck/train/etc, or overdosing myself, or anything.

Seriously, I dont really want to kill myself sometimes. But sometimes I feel so horrible, I want to go along with these urges. I dont even know what to think anymore.

Before, when I felt this way, I could talk to some of my friends and they would help me feel better. Most of these friends either arent available, or wont talk to me.

I really dont want to kill myself. Im afraid that I will though. I should mention that I am schizophrenic/depressed/paranoid, and have been this way for two years. I have a history of suicide attempts.

I've been on too many meds to count. My therapists keep giving up on me. Im just a burden to everyone around me. I cant help but think that everyone would rather I was gone.

What should I do? idk what to think anymore.
