I read today http://www.boston.com/yourlife/health/other/articles/2006/05/23/fda_approves_first_generic_lexapro/
that lexapro is going to be available in generic form.

WHEN??

i called my pharmacy today to try to get the generic version of my lexapro script, but the girl acted like i was an idiot and said "There is no generic lexapro"

I really would love to be able to get my script for $5 instead of $30 (and thats with insurance!!)

I've read about how in Japan there are people, mostly young men who shut themselves off from the world known as Hikikomori and I was wondering if anyone knows if this is common in America as well. Such as staying at home all day or almost all day, having few or no friends outside of immediate family, not driving or being afraid to drive, etc. Although I still go to the store occasionaly with my mom, I very seldom ever leave my neighborhood except to go out to eat with my parents on weekends and I only talk to maybe one or two people outside of close faimly on a regular basis.

would it be helpful to use .5 mg's for an important licensing test (2hours long)? Or will it hinder my thinking and make me less effective on the test? I expect to be pretty anxious for the test but it is more important for me to be able to concentrate and think clearly...

I have been suffering from depression and panic attacks for a while. I always thought it was caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain. However recently I read that panic attacks and depression where caused by a spirit that gets attached to one´s aura. Is someone who died but did not get to the other world (is in the in-between). The spirit needs energy to live, that´s why he gets attached and produces all these weird thoughts of "getting crazy" and "killing yourself". My question is......is the attached spirit the one that produces the chemical unbalance in the brain?

Thank you and I'm okay, i guess. 17 stitches and suicide watch, what fun. Here's a little something ya'll should know about me. I've been raped countless times by my dad and my brother, abused, seen friends committ suicide, my step-dad is dying, my mom is a wreck. Everyone runs to me with their problems but when I go to them for help, I get **** on. My family is one big wreck, that is if you can even call it a family. That is only a tenth of my life. yes, I know some people have it worse, and if i could I'd help them in anyway. I have a huge heart, if anyone asks for help, I'll help. But I don't like getting **** on in return. I came to this site to help others and to get help. And I can't believe all the rude remarks, WTF? Do others think its funny to see someone in serious need of help? All I want to do is say thanks to all those that cared, and to say **** ya'll with rude remarks.

My brother is not well he was diagnosd with depression and schisoprania. He's been in and out of hospitals. But they keep letting him out because his medicaid wont cover long stays. We try to get him in a home that they can take care of him and make sure he's taking his meds but they keep saying they cant find a place that medicaid will cover. So they just let him out with more medicine. I felt he looked ten times worst and more parinoid of the world. I felt they should'nt have let him out. Anyway he just recently got up and left he felt everybody was after him and that the cops were going to come for him. He left with no money and just siad he did'nt want to deal with anything anymore and that he will be back in a few years. He thinks where he's going they won't find him. He called a few times and siad he's ok. But I'm very worried and I need advice desperately. It seems nobody want's to help him. And I don't want him just wandering on the street with no medication.

Are there any people out there who also have DID? If so, how do you cope? How much progress have you made? I would also be interested in communicating via email and messenger if there is anyone else out there who also have DID like myself. I feel so alone and isolated.

I was just wondering if it might be possible that I have OCD.I've looked up the symptoms and I fit a lot of them. But thing is I only get the symptoms everyonce and while, like once a day or so. There are times when I can't use my bathroom because I'm so paranoid about all the germs in it but I don't worry about germs in other areas. I also have times where I'll stop what ever I'm doing no matter how important and I'll just clean and I have to make things neat and orderly and if I stop and it's not done I can't do anything but worry about how messy it is. Several family members have said that I'm showing obsessive behavior lately. I've also been having reoccuring fears of dying which are only helped when I do something like counting in my head or repeating poetry in my head. Is this normal or could I have OCD?

People ask me this question all the time. In other words am about 4'11 and turning 15 in november. Am a male. My dad is 6'0(Above average height) My mom is 5'5 (above average height) Why am I like this. My brother is also 5'11. And I am not really growth hormone deficent? I've been averageing about 2 inches per year since I was 8. What will be my adult height you think? I don't think i've ever hit a major growth spurt yet either or think I ever will if this keeps up.
