I wonder how it would be according to Kaplan & Saddock or DSM IV.

I don't know how to put this. I'll try. I think I discovered something about myself. I have a serious difficulty learning new things and I have very poor short-term memory. I’ve never been the studious type in my younger days. I'm not young. I find myself surrounded by young people half my age who are faster and have bodies that heal quicker than mine. I face a serious language barrier. Companies in my country no longer prefer English-speaking people like myself. I don’t have the money to educate myself. On top of that, I have depression and have a history of it. And I have developed a serious phobia of meeting people outside. Is there a free way I can help myself? F.y.i., I can’t afford medication etc. I’d appreciate respectful answers.

I am so upset with myself for feeling like this. I don't know where it came from, but I hate feeling this way. My sister has a friend (boy) who is starting to pay for her mortgage, bills, and tells her he is going to buy her a huge house with horses, car etc etc....I struggle everyday working and I still am struggling with bills, mortgage, etc.. How can I get rid of feeling so jealous? I can't even be happy for her!

As part of a custody battle the judge order both me and my ex-wife to go to “counseling”. My lawyer says she orders everyone to go. Anyway here is how a typical session went:

Counselor: What is bothering you?
Me: My has pissed away everything I have ever worked for and now she is costing me a fortune with this custody battle.
Counselor: How does that make you feel?
Me: (thinking to myself) Is this woman retarded?

I am 14 years old and in the 9th grade. I'm taking advanced classes, and I make REALLY good grades. The problem is that I'm always stressed out, and I never have fun. I hate myself when I don't live up to my impossible standards.... I don't know how to change myself. Normal human beings don't cry when they make a 91 in their math class... I don't know what to do anymore.

I spend a lot of time on an Internet message board, and I always have good discussions with a woman who I know from there. We've been online friends for a while, and she's always stuck up for me and been nice. I get into a lot of trouble with the moderators on the board, though, because a lot of my posts are about sex and attractive woman...anyways, I had this dream in which I awoke to find my account had been disabled, and it told me who was responsible for the deletion, and it was my friend. I was shocked, horrified, and furious. I confronted her and she owned up, saying she never liked me and I disgust her. I was horrified and furious and told her that another man on the board (who HATES my friend) was 100% right about her. That's when I woke up. What does this mean?

I heard that that feeling like you have a good relationship with your counselor actually is more effective than their actual technique. My new question is, do you guys think people are more comfortable to open up online because they aren't face-to-face?

Well.. I'm only 13.. I'm a very happy person, and nobody has ever seen me sad, or mad.. Except my family.. and ever since school started, (I go to a school with 95% hispanics, I'm white) all of the hispanic kids make fun of me because of my race, and talk about me in spanish. and I'm a very sensative person. and I haven't been as happy anymore, and my mom thinks I should move with my dad and go to my old school for my mental health. but I dont want to live with my dad.. and I don't want to go to my school. it's tearing me apart. and I don't know what to do.

I feel like it has completely no affect on me--basically over night. It didn't just start losing it's effect slowly. One day I took it and it worked. The next day, nothing. What is going on???
