I think that I have some kind of genetic mental illness. I'm wondering who should I seek for help to determine if I do or do not. What should I do?

i don't mind them talking behind my back but i don't want them in my life. thanks.

one more thing. if you have such nasty people at work where they could be a threat to your "existence" what do you do. you want to keep them at a distance but they'll just keep pushing just to be mean.

I already have a child, who was born early & got seriously ill, nearly died a week before his actual due date, & now has disabilities because of it. I am scared that this one will end up the same way, or worse. I can't feel like this for the next four months, or it might become a self-fufilling prophecy. I'm not normally sad, or depressed, or a worry wart. But my crystal ball is broken, & it seems like all I do now is fret over the birth of this child, when I should simply be enjoying my ability to be able to have kids. I have Paxil, but I don't think I should be taking things like that right now; I haven't taken it in months anyway; & I don't want to start again.
I have talked to people about my feelings, but they dismiss them by saying that there's nothing to worry about. But they're not me, & haven't spent three weeks of their lives in a pediatric ICU waiting for their first born to fight his way back from the very edge of death's door.
I don't know how to stop feeling this way.

I'm going to graduate university in 6 months and I'm working now too. I feel like the days of high school, hanging out with friends, doing nothing, and having fun are over! How old are you? I feel like if I'm more tired, apathetic, and lack motivation.

Last year was the year of bad luck. I broke my ankle..lost my job...couldn't get anouther job for 8mo. I was on crutches for 6mo. I got a new job that pays $1,000 less a mo. I am paying off expenses aquired during unemployment. The car I bought before losing my previous job takes up over 1/2 of my income. I make $9hr. I am a single parent. This sucks. Any ideas?

lately, i have been under A LOT of stress. i do have some issues from the past that i feel has cause post traumatic stress disorder. anyway, i feel like it has affected me one way or another and i've been told by my primary care physician years ago that i should talk to someone, since it is the root of my anxiety attacks, etc.

i have never "talked" to a professional before, and have only vented with friends or close family members. i am at the point where i would like to see if talking to a professional can help.

i know the difference between a psychiatrist and a psychologist, but i am just wondering...those of you who have done this before what makes a better experience:

a 29 yr old female talking to a male or female psychologist or psychiatrist?
