Mental Health - October 2006

I'm going to college by day and work at night. The hours are REALLY wired, I work 8pm to 4:30 am and back to school at around 9am. I need a sleeping pill that will help me sleep when I need to. As you can see, I don't have a lot of time to waste waiting to sleep. I need all the time I have free to sleep.

I am also taking Adderall for my ADHD so sleeping can be hard at times. Do you know any sleeping pills that works well for you, the kind that don't leave you feeling tired?

Has anyone had experience in this matter? It clearly says not to abruptly stop taking so I am assuming you have to ween yourself off but what if you don't?

If so do you receive any treatment for it? Does it help you? Do you think that purging is serious if you are doing it 2-3 times a week?

I keep trying to enjoy myself on an night out and fail miserably everytime. I don't know anyone where I live and I have this problem where I get isolated and then I feel depressed and then because of that I become very withdrawn and can't even concentrate to talk to anyone cause I'm very innatentive and the depression makes it worse. I also suffer from a social anxiety disorder and no therapies or drugs have ever worked. I go out a lot trying to fight it and I've managed to overcome it before, its like I get all my confidence back and I can start thinking again and enjoying myself and I don't feel any anxiety even around new people, but I always need someone to reconnect me again because the phycological issues I have and the anxiety are too overwhelming. I can't innitiate myself and interact with anyone until someone approaches me and starts talking to me. Its like I keep loosing this huge part of myself my insecurities always win out.

My friend told me a few weeks ago that her husband has been looking at porn and masterbates. By the time they go to bed he is not interested in sex. She feels that she is not pretty as the women he looks at. Then later she tells me she needs money to buy groceries for her and their kids. Then today she told me her husband is yelling, screaming, slamming doors and sleeping on the couch. The problem is, I cannot believe all this. I do know he has had a problem with porn in the past, and sometimes it creeps back in and he has to stop it, but the other, I think is not true. She has a OCD diagnosis, & he would never withhold grocery money. She has a nail fedish. Should I tell the husband she is telling me all this even though she told me not to? BTW-I told her I had no money to give her, to go to the food pantry.

Can anyone tell me about side effects you experienced while taking Wellbutrin? I am having several problems and I would like to know if all of it has to do with the Wellbutrin and will they stop eventually? I have been taking it for about 3 weeks. Any opinions or information will help greatly. Thanks!!

ok, I don't have enough money to pay for a counselor or anything like that.
my dad is in denial just simply doesn't want to get better. my mother has no guts or money herself...so she's not much help anyway.

should i go to support groups? if so i'll be the only one from my family going.
and then are the support really even worth going?

if you have any advice thanks!

10years ago i was harrased for 6 year by the kids at my catholic school. I was very depressed, but i got help for it. now i am even worse. I have been having these dreams for the past 10years and nothing can get rid of them. They are about this girl who loses her father and goes around killing people, even her sister whom she loves. She does this because it was said that she would. I am seeing a counsler and on prozac but nothing seems to help. Any suggestions.
