Mental Health - August 2006

I recently began communicting with an ex lover. We are both married now. We have families and live far apart. Is it ever safe to explore those old feelings or does someone always get hurt.

A guy I'm seriously dating isn't that close to his mother. He only talks to her when she asks him questions about his life and even then he only gives minimal answers. He sees her on a pretty regular basis, but holds a grudge against her b/c she spends beyond her means on personal items and has to borrow money from him. But, it's worth noting that my bf growing up had to witness his father repeatedly blame his mother for the families financial problems. My bf's father isn't very affectionate or supportive of his mother and it seems like the father's view has subconsciously affected my bf's views. My bf is supportive and postiive when it comes to our relationship. Does anyone have any insight into dealing with mommy issues?

I am 26 - I was a child about 7-9 yrs. old I flipped over railing while riding a scooter (no helmet), head banged on railing and I fell. suffered migraine headaches as an adult, finally got an MRI done to find there was tiny cyst (smaller than a dime) on my brain, located on a vein that the neurologist said was cause headaches. here are my symptoms that occur at least one of these everyday:

- migraine headaches
- hearing voices or noises that no one else hears
- talking to myself
-catatonic (staring, rocking) for minutes at a time
- dark spots in vision or flashes of bright light

someone is talking to me hearing "blanks out" for a few seconds, know they were talking but can't remember what was said to during the "blank spots"

at night when I'm sleeping my toes "twitch" back and forth as do my fingers, I can feel it, can't control it

night while I'm trying to sleep, my back goes ridgid on my bed and can't move until the feeling passes, fingers do the same

I have suffered from major depression since age 10. I have been hospitalized twice in my life for it. I have taken meds for a few years. recently I have been off meds I have done well for a bout a year. The summers are hardest on me since I am a college student and have little going on during the summers. I am just tired of the cycles I fear I cant handle another major crash as I am having now if anyone knows of a cure for major depression please tell me.

My doctor prescribed Risperidal for my anxiety. I have read that death is a possible "side effect." Then I read about lawsuits. I don't know if I should take the chance.
Also, I have heard that it makes you tired. How long after I take it will I need to go to sleep.?

I recently read about the parasite Toxoplasma gondii. It has been found to alter the behaviour of humans and of rats. How does it do this?

I get angry at a LOT of things. The smallest thing could trigger me into a effing fit! and i'm tired of it.

For example, I bought a pair of jeans the other day and when i got home, they didn't fit right! They were WAY too tight and pushed on my lower abdomen where it makes it look like my damn stomach buldges out!!!

And i had a FIT

On MyYearbook.com, a website like Myspace, someone voted for Me as 'biggest suckup' and i got infuriated. I am pretty sure who it is and am going to get them back if it's the last thing i do.

i am 13 years old. i am not "mentally unstable", depending on your definition of that phrase...

please help me control my anger. it's ruining my life!

I find myself in this situation with a variety of subjects. I can rarely stick with one subject because I feel immediatly captivated by another. I always go DEEP into the subjects, trying to suck everything there is to know into my head.
I leave a lot of writing on those subjects unfinished because I'm occupied writing for another insterests of mine.
Is this a kind of intellectual obssessive-compulsive disorder?

I want to be the master of my thoughts and feelings. Too often, they are the master of me. I easily fall prey to the negativity in my head. How can I change my thoughts and thus change my reality? I want to be an effective, confident person. I seem to be bent on undermining my own efforts. Your kind, insightful thoughts are welcomed.
