i talk to myself a lot, but not really in ways that are completely weird and out of the ordinary. But i think back to previous conversations i've had and say bits of them out loud sometimes (well, it's more like MOUTHING them, i don't actually speak them). And sometimes i make things up in my head and do the same thing (mouth the conversations). I do day dream often, i just don't think the behavior i described is NORMAL. Am i crazy? or am i just weird?

I have been suffering from mental illnesses(neurotic depression, bipolar, ocd, social phobia) for most of my life. I have been to more psychiatrists than I have fingers and toes and I only get worse. I have tried many different medications, given them a lot of time, but nothing helps. I am only getting worse and have told my doctor(s) that I am fed up and ready to take myself out just to stop feeling the pain. What else is there for me to do????

I've been noticing more and more that I try too much to go back to my past. I'm 18 years old, but I constantly do things like go back to the town I grew up in, watch movies and shows I used to watch when I was little, look up old toys I had on Ebay, do childish activities with friends (trick-or-treating, slinkies, etc.), and watch home videos. I even checked out books I used to read from the library-ones I would read in 3rd grade. I'm scared that this is unhealthy. Shouldn't I be concerned with today and tomorrow instead of yesterday? I'm a very nostalgic person for some reason and I miss my childhood. Is this going to lead to something worse? Why am I like this?

I read that Anna Nicole Smith's son died from taking Zoloft, Lexapro, and methdone. But could the Lexapro and Zoloft do it? Both taken in their prescribed ammounts of course.

I am working with mentally and physically disabled people. I have a german degree in this field which is called a "Medico-Pedagogic Caregiver". I would like to achieve my bachelors degree in mental health but somehow I can not find anything that referes to that. I was thinking about Social Work but does anyone know about a more specific degree that specifies mental health and mental retardation?? I appreciate every answer. Thank you

I was first prescribed effexor 12 years ago for post natal depression. My father in law died the week before our son was born - his first granchild. I was on it for 18 months and then again 6 years later during a period of real stress at work. That was a year. Then again 3.5 years later for 3 years when my mother in law was diagnosed with cancer and I lost 3 family members and 3 friends in 12 months. I nursed my MIL and finally lost her 2 years ago within 10 hours of losing my dog. I was on effexor - gradually reducing until 1 month ago - when it all went wrong. GP stopped the Effexor and put me on prozac, 20 mg. For the last month I have had really ups and really bads downs, anger in quite explosive bursts - I always had the awful sweats and for the last year unbearably itchy upper arms. Now I am beginning to wonder if I will ever get better - and if I do will it always be with pills - and is that a bad thing?
Your opinions and experiences might help me feel normal again.

Other than people talking to you, there is this voice in your head that talks as well, not sure how many voices because each voice has a different character.

I'm terribly shy, and at work i always have to go in busy offices. I get terribly embarassed because there's this guy i like(he asked me out today)and i feel awkward all the time because of my shyness. People only have to say hello and i go beet red and sweat like crazy. I've definately got anxiety problems. How do i calm myself?deep breathing doesnt help me by the way. alcohol calms me down but i dont feel like drinking it first thing in the morning.

I mess with them right back. In fact, it is driving people here at work crazy that I've shut the door so I can concentrate on a project, and I can hear them supposing why I'm doing this today when my door is normally open and I preferr a little social interaction while I work. I've told them why, but it is hilarious some of the things they're saying which they think I can't hear! LOL! Do they realize how mental they sound? Too bad I can't tape record them and then play it back over a loudspeaker at WalMart while I know they're all shopping there that day or something! Dang, that would be funny!

O.k. so I'm bi-polar, but I just want to be dead. I 've felt this way for 20 years (since I was 9). Today I bought a whole bottle of sleeping pills. I want to use them, but I kinda don't. Can someone give me a reason to live.

Oh I' m on lithobid & Cymbalta & abilify, but I haven't taken them in 4 days. The bottles I have now were picked up from the pharm. on 7/26/06 and I still have about a week left, so you see how irreguarly I take um.

i love being in love and everything that comes with it but i'm starting to believe that being single and consequently not engaging in romantic affairs gives me more peace. 'cause if i fall in love, i fall for real & once it's over it hurts too much and it makes me totally shattered; emotionally & mentally. i love romance & passion but if it's not with the right person i don't do it. so i guess, what i'm really asking is for your opinion on coming to terms with being single and how to control your desire. i don't wanna feel it 'cause it makes me long for something i can't have.

thanks
