Mental Health - September 2006

I have both of these symptoms, and I constantly feel really, really down. I mean, I smile and have fun all of the time, but I always have this weird, guilty feeling.
I always feel bad when I'm having fun, because I feel as though I don't deserve to have a good time.
I'm known for being loud, funny and carefree, but I feel as though I have this bottomless hole in my stomach that just collects guilt and negative thoughts. I'm not content with myself, and to be perfectly honest, I dislike people who remind me of myself.
I rarely eat, and I never really feel hungry. I thought that may be the reason why I'm tired all of the time, but I'm not sure. I'm enegetic at school, but when I get home I sort of crash, and act all moody.
Does this sound like depression? I don't want to unecessarily diagnose myself with something, but I don't think the way that I feel is normal.
What are the other signs of depression?
Thanks for your help.

some stores are now carrying technology that enables customers to swipe their fingertips over a special reader which in turn acts like a debit card to make the purchase. similar technologies like these are blooming across the world. are these the marks of the beast decribed in revelations?

I have so much anger inside of me I don't know what to do with it. the thoughts I have scare me. Is there anyone who can relate to this

Yes, this is crazy. I am extremely overly attracted to my family doctor. We are both married. He is 15 years older than me. I think what started it is that he took an interest in my lack of sexual fullfillment in my relationship and made some suggestions which unfortunately made me think of him when I tried them out and now he's all I fantasize about...almost obsessively. He has no idea how I feel and I'm not planning on telling him but it's driving me crazy! I caught him totally checking my backside out when I had my back turned and could see him in the mirror. I don't think I am crazy when I say I feel some degree of pheromone activity going on between us. How can I move past this. He's really the best doctor I've ever had.

Have heard it blamed on there being too many skinny models in magazines, but this sounds like rubbish to me. Poisonous upbringing? Me too, but it gave me the drive to become self-reliant, rather than self-destroying. Bad relationship? Why not find a better one?

And how do you help such women??

And what are the symptoms?

2006-09-15 07:53:30 · 16 answers · asked by Tina 2

I went to my doctor for insomnia; she prescribed Rozerem (which has done nothing for me), but she said she believes that I have anxiety syndrome and that I should take Sinequan. I wouldn't disagree with her prognosis because I have a bad family situation right now that is keeping me stressed, but I don't want to start taking something that will cause me to have worse insomnia. Have you used it? If so, did you have insomnia before taking it? Did it help?

I was sick last weekend, so since last monday I haven't gone out, like with my friends to a club or a date or anything. Just work and home. I thought it would be real relaxing and I'd enjoy it, but I just kinda feel down and antisocial. Does anybody else ever feel like that? Or am I crazy
