I am having a difficult time when my husband goes to work. I'm a stay at home mom of three children ages 8, 5 and 13 months. I'm having panic attacks, feeling worthless and hopeless, I think people are judging me. When I'm with my husband almost all of this goes away and when he's at work I'm on the verge of crying and I feel like I'm losing it, like I'm having a breakdown. I don't have health insurance so I haven't sought professional help. I don't want my husband or anyone else to think I'm a freak. I don't want to live like this anymore, it's hurting my family. Helpful addvice will be appreciated!

I have a woman in my office and she literally chuckles when she upsets people. People will storm out of the office in complete agony cause by her mental abuse and she chuckles. To me that is a person who gets pleasure from causing pain and embarrassment. What is the clinical name for that type of mentality? Psychopath? Sociopath? Which one?

My husband is 100% Italian and I have a mother-in-law who recently told me ... and I QUOTE ... "If I lived with you, it still wouldn't be enough time for me. I need more time with you".

We live 40 minutes away and see his family every weekend. We have a large group of friends and we have to cancel/bow-out of other events because we are always with his family.

We have a 1 year old and I am nervous about having more children because I don't want the issues of "time together" to escalate. I want a large family but this is holding me back.

My husband travels every week for 2 or 3 days and I don't think that limiting the amount of time we spend with his family (say to 2 weekends or 3 short visits a month) is too much to ask.

My in-laws are very sweet but are also "chameleons" when it comes to getting their way. I don't want to hurt anyone but I can't allow the time constraints to continue in fear that the issues will only get worse.

I need some solid advice please!

its higher up than my anus, but it always keeps showing its ugly face. I put all kinds of gels, ointments on it, to help it heal, but it will last for weeks before it finally heals. Everytime i sit down on the toilet it splits right back open. What could be causing this?

I need suggestions for unwinding & "de"stressing. I'm 26, and I work full time and go to school full time (15 units). There are also problems at home with a dying relative. I find that I am more tha physically tired. My brain is tired, too. I don't have the option of cutting back on anything, so I need suggestions on how to avoid mental breakdowns...Any thoughts?

I met an amazing girl who I married a week ago. Ever since the proposal and the marriage, I have destroyed my mind with negative obsessive thoughts about her looks. It has left my mind like such a wrecked shell that I no longer think any girls are pretty. If I do not stop myself thinking like this then my marriage will be gone. Please could someone tell me how to stop these thoughts coming into my head and destroying me.

recently i found out that my close friend was laughing and supporting those who believed that i am stupid.. he has started behaving as if he is great. he is ignoring him for no reason. he just wants to be with those 'new' group of people who are similar to his innate character- laughing at others., thinking he is great, those who consider they r cool and others are not.

i think the trouble started when i started calling those who waste time and not study are fools. we r in medical school and i beleive my friend dies not have the attitude to be a doctor. but the problem is, i am unable to cope with his new behavior as we were friends for almost 6 years and then this happened...

your suggestions are valuable for me to cope with this new situation where i am always thinking about that and unable to do anything else at all!

i hope you can help.... :-)

Do any of them have any annoying habits that make you want to wrap your hands around their little annoying throats and just squeeze with all your might!

What do you think about when you have this mental illness?
What makes you draw those crazy but interesting pictures?
How does it make you feel?
Do you hallucinate or hear voices?
Can you describe those voices or visuals?

I am studying this mental illness and any answers about this would be appreciated.

My brain is sick, it makes me think that i might lead to death. Like looking at guys on bikes might makes 'em crash if we make eye contact. And i might pause if something bad might be happening, i guess it like a force is stopping me. anything will help.
