I've been working at an animal clinic for four years now. For the first 2 1/2 years I was always very helpful, and a little more outgoing I suppose. THen I quit smoking and I was not too happy about going to work for quite some time. Well, I'm still not really. It's mainly because I know my co-workers have said some mean things about me though. My one friend there said that he heard them say that I had a complete personality change and that I use to be "nice and friendly" and now I am "psycho." One of them also said that sometimes I look mean..or you can tell I'm mad. Which is something that I am ALWAYS paranoid about. It's like my paranoia is real afterall. What am I suppose to do to get back on track? Is me worrying about looking pissed off actually causing me to give that impression? They all act uncomfortable around me and it's like even if I do try to be more helpful now..they will still act weird. What should I do?

We have a president quick to war. We are not a peaceful society. Everyone can be screened under a microscope-yet aliens get free medical. The rich r moving their assetts overseas-there go the jobs.
The deficit was balanced until this new recruit, now it is hay wire.
Are we going to be the next 3rd world country with the rich bailing out? What easier way to move out. than to move your assetts out first???? Why do people have to struggle to pay medical bills when those here illegally get it for free? My childs survey report---of which listed benefits of "farm workers" and "poultry plant workers" suggested free lunches, free medical, free food, free translation, etc. What about the citizens who work at the poultry plant? Medical is taken from their pay, if they work more than their 8 hour shift--they will be offered a piece of candy-executives hoping they will not pass out???? We need a government that looks out for the tax payers and legal citizens of this country. Neutral!!

I keep on having these crazy images in my head of horrible things like beating myself to death or slitting my throat and I'm really just hanging on by a thread. I sit here immobile for fear of doing something devastating the moment I get up. I'm already trying to see a therapist but that will take a few weeks because of money problems. I really have no idea why I'm posting this except that I'm really desperate and manic and there's no way I'm going downstairs and talking to my dad about this. There's no one to call...all of my friends are away in other cities or just very busy. I really don't want to kill myself, I know it's not the answer...but these thoughts just invade my mind and try to possess me. This was sudden, it's been slowly creeping into my head for years, but I've never felt this panicked. I feel like I might actually do something if I don't calm myself down.
Help! Just tell me I'm stupid or something. I'll get mad and then spend my energy bitching about you.

Why do drugs have to be unhealthy, if we can achieve extremely good physical feelings, like orgies, how come we can't have extremely good mental feelings that are also healthy?

I did when I was younger, but my girlfriends son just did it with his freind and they cut thier hands so deeply that they both had to have surgery to repair their damaged tendons and ligaments, and both had severe nerve damage, and will probably loose some feeling permanently. Is that overkill, or what?

I mean they don't know anything about the brain works. They think antidepressants work but they can't prove that. ALL placebo studies that were done correctly have shown no effect of depression remission from antidepressants. They really don't know if a depressed person has too much of this chemical or too little of this. Talk therapy is like talking to a wall that you pay for. I'm sorry if I sound arrogant..but I can prove all these things. I have had depressive episodes for 15 years and while I will have times of normal mood..in general it is only getting worse. Why don't they tell us the truth about depression treatment.?.is it because the drug companies are the one's they have to answer to. fuzzy numbers and stats.. I wouldn't be suprised..i think the buisness of depression care has become a crooked buisness...anyone agree?

if a teenager tells lots of lies, very manipulative and convincing (not on drugs) has great highs and circling lows, creates horrific problems between people, doesnt keep friends for long, but tells people awful stories have happened for sympathy, some which are completely fictional - is this a mental health problem or not

I know everyone is different, I just want to know what YOUR time frame is, so I can get an idea of an average length. And is it progressive or do you just snap into it one day? And when in the depressed stage, and you do become distant, is there anything that someone can do, to make you become a little more closer, or talkative? And no, I am not Bipolar.

I have started 1 or 2 hours, now it's pretty much all the time after 3:00 Pm which is after school. I start to get a lot of strange thoughts. My mom will not let me have any more friends, for we all partied and she banned them all from coming over, so I just sit here by myself in my room. I do my homework, workout, listen to music, and watch t.v.
