Hi. I am currently writing my dissertation on the subject of why people who suffer from mental illness (in particular Bi-Polar Disorder) have an abnormally high capacity for creativity and creative thought. In essence, i'm attempting to discover why this is so. However, I am still at a loss in regards to a title for the dissertation. I'm wanting a title that may include a play on words, something a little.....well creative! Any help would be appreciated. Thankyou

I had suffered panic attacks and depression years ago. The first time It happened I did not say anything at work. I manage to survive with my symptoms In a stressfull environment. After being OK, last year I again suffered from depression and anxiety. This time the symptoms were so strong that I had to tell my boss. I live in Venezuela (South America) and in this country there is not much known about this diseases. At the beginning my Boss was really understanding and caring, then she started to blame the depression for my bad work. At the end I had to quit the job before getting fired. What is curious is that the first time I got depression, I did not tell my boss. She always looked at my work as being excellent and I even got promoted. The second time I got depression I was discriminated. What do you think about it? What do you suggest I should have done? Are there any laws that protects us people?

What do you do when your parents don't believe you have symptoms of depression & they think you are making it all up & then they see you having an attack but they think you are acting & still don't believe you...I can't stand it anymore I really need to see a doctor & see if I need medication to help my attacks I could go to the doctor myself because I am 18 but I don't have the money too so I kinda need their help but they don't believe me....it sucks & just adds more to the **** in my life. Any ideas on what to do???

I have been dealing with anxiety and depression off and on since I was 15. I always forge ahead with my life despite it, but in the meantime, it's very annoying when I go through several-week pockets of it. I think therapy, medication, and friends are important things to combat it. It's especially awful when I have a bout of it driving at night on the freeway. I'd like to hear from other people who have experience with this-- does it feel like your whole body is tense and tired? Like maybe you're breathing wrong? Fast heartbeat, needless obsessive fear? Tell your story and how you're overcoming it.

Recently alot of girls at my school have been cutting for various reasons. Some of them because of their family others because of boyfriends. I've tried to talk to them but that seems to not work. I've been on other sites about tring to talk to them and all that the sites say is to tell them to put a rubberband on their wrists and when they want to cut snap the rubber band on their wrist. But I think that snapping a rubberband is just as bad. Then on the other sites they say just to leave them alone, and I refuse to do that. They just dont understand what that does to them. What can I do, and what does cutting lead to? I figure if I tell them what it leads to then mabey they will atleast consider tring to quit. PLEASE help me.

if you have post-partum depression is it absolutly nessicary to take medicine and see a doctor...or is it possible the person can "beat" it on there own?

Brain damage sucks... because it's effects can be weird, unpredictable and evolve with age... You might have some from a past trauma and not know it...but some symptoms may exist---from anxiety to speech disorders to quirky behavior to sleep disorders, etc.!!
From there, you can get into all the meds available to help...
But ABOVE ALL... our brain is the most complex organ in the body...DON"T be ashamed of NOT having a perfect one...WHO does?

Its very difficult to deal with the mulitude of different addictions, Too bad the true person never shows till after they declared and committed thier life and love to you, only to find that many obstructions in the way too late. I will say all was hidden so well and undected. Not sure what released all this at once, but help is needed and just need to know which addiction or dysfunction to begin with? Sleep clinic? Therapist for Family Dsyfunction and Sexual problems? AA?GA? and where do I go for support through all this?

im fourteen years old and im afraid of the dark. nothing has happened to be, no one abused me or nothing ever happened in the dark that im blocking. but its not just the dark..whenever i goto the bathroom i pull back the shower curtains because i know no one is their but just for reassurance. if im alone in the dark i turn on a light, or purposly leave the tv on for some source of light. but recently i turned on the light..but the fear didnt go away. i still felt as if something was lurking in the dark corners. my friends say things like im afraid too, but im reeeealllly afraid. but the thing is i wasnt afraid when i was younger, but as i get older, the fear doesnt get better, it gets worser. maybe its the fear of being alone? because i can sleep peacefully if im laying in the bed with someone, like my mom or my sister. i just stopped sleeping with my sister two months ago when she went to college & im having a hard time sleeping alone. SOMEONE PLEASE HELP, IM TOO OLD...I FEEL SO WEIRD

Or a family counselor, etc.? I know there are differences between these professionals, and his daughter seemed worried that he said the word "psychiatrist". She said why not a counselor? Does anybody here have any insight? She has been aliented from, and poisoned against him by her mother. There is no other way than therapy for them to get their relationship back on track. We love her and want her to be a part of our family as well as her mother's.
