I am 18 years old, and i have a big problem with cutting. I go to a therapist and I am on meds but they don't help with the cutting. I really so want to stop, but I am out of ideas. I have tried things like exercising, writing, and reading when I feel the urge to cut but it doesnt help. I have been in the "mental" hospital 6 times in the last ten months, but the hospitals dont work, and i really want to stop, but i am out of ideas...

When a child we were told she had mild attention problem - but now that she is a teenager - we are seeing serious problems with this. Is it normal for symptoms to worsen during teenage years? We have an appointment in a couple of weeks for an evaluation for her.

hello. i have been suffering from anxiety/panic attacks since about 2 years ago. they would come,i would have a few attacks over a few days,then they would leave me for a couple of months then return. in the past 4 or 5 weeks,they have been regular and are seriously affecting me/my head. i have one at the weekend that last about 2 hours. i thought it was my last attack and that i would die. its so scary and i dont know how much of it i can take. i feel my head will lose the plot and/or i will have a heart attack...i have tried the brown bag method,but no difference. i always try to get frsh air and throw water over myself. it is affecting me bigtime,because it stops me doing things more and more by the week,including not being able to go on trains/buses aswell as other things. i dopnt suffer from claustiphobia, i have problem being in a lift or a packed shopping mall. desperately seeking help. thanks for your time guys.

I had a dream last night, and in this dream I was laying on the floor. and a woman wearing a pair of red dress shoes walked up and kicked me in the face. It was a short dream, I woke up right after she kicked me. I distinctly remember the color red from this dream

My friend is suffering from depression, a milder version from what I suffered with for the last 3-4 years. I understand what she is going through and agree that she needs help and support, but she is acting very attention seekingly and is crying at any sign of stress, including just being in class, or the mention of universities. I know it can be hard, but it's been going on for a while and is now getting some "pupil support" at school, but hasn't learnt how to cope with her feelings, instead she just wimpers, cries, makes annoying noises and really pisses my other friends and I off. I do want her to get better and I feel for her. But we give her attention, and try to get her involved outside of school, we're heard all her moans and groans, and she just isn't interested in our help. It feels like she just wants to get everyone's attention, and wants to make new friends with others at pupil support. She goes there at break times, lunch times, and during classes. No wonder she's stressed

This is just a "throw it out there" question. Do you think really knowing yourself, is the key to personal fulfillment or do you think even though you may know what you need and want, and yet can't find it, it can frustrate your life.

Just gathering info. Thanks.

People often refer to "abnormal" behavior, but the question is, what is "normal"? There are over 6 billion people in the world, and they're all different from one another. And not only that, but psychologists have confirmed that every person has some mental health issues, so what constitutes as "normal" behavior?

Does anyone know any anti-depressants (and better, if it helps anxiety problems, too) that DOES NOT use the serotonin and dopamine?

My body reacts too sensitive to those serotonin and dopamine using medications.

I have asked my docter about this, but it seems he does not know anything other than the above.

If you suggest me one, I will ask for his opinion on that one.

Please help me, and thank you for your kindness.

Need some help, i've been on such a downer for a while now.

It's 5 days till my 23rd birthday now and i'm sat here feeling like i've screwed everything up, 23 years and it's like i've never achieved anything, missed out on loads and have nothing to look forward to. I've already told anyone who asks to give some money to charity rather than get me a present and am planning to just stay in over the weekend.

I just don't know whats up with me, i'm pretty smart, have a fairly good job, a great brother and sister who always look out for me, am pretty good looking and have great friends who have never held any of this against me. So why do i feel like i'm a useless nobody who's missed out on something, it's starting to turn into a vicious circle now where the more i'm on a downer, the more it affects everything else and the more it does that the more of a downer i'm on etc etc etc.

Anyone got any advice?
