Every time I meet someone or talk to anyone like stranger, or meet anyone I get so shy, I mumble, I forget what to say, I stumble on my words I get so self-conscious. I even have a hard time chatting online with people. You think I wouldn’t feel self-conscious chatting with someone online but I do. I don’t socialize outside of my family and don’t have friends. Do you think I have a mild form of social anxiety of horrible social skills?

I've been hospitalized, medicated, therapy, I don't know what else to do. I feel like no one can help me anymore. I know I need to help myself but I'm to weak to do it. I know most of my depression is coming from an ex-bf and getting over him is unbearable, he had so much control over me, and he was mentally abusive. I feel like there is nothing left. what else can I do I have a 6 yr old but I can't care for her like this, she doesn't deserve it. I want to die please help.

Sometimes, I feel as if am not myself. I look in mirrors and I am unfamiliar of what I see. Other times, when ever I walk to my classes at college I feel like I am just walking, but I am not there. It is kind of like I am on automatic pilot. I have had this so bad that at times, when I cross the streets, I dont even feel like I am control. It is like I can walk right out in front of a car bc everything around me seems very unreal. I dont know what is wrong with me. There have been times when my friends have conversation with me, and I can hear what they are saying, but it is like I am not even there. If I am a suffer of this illness, could someone please tell me the medication that a pyschologist would prescribe. At the moment I am scared 2 go 2 a shrink bc there are gonna think these sympoms are ludicrious. I dont know how I should explain these things to them. There are also time when I feel catatonic in situations. I just cant move. Someone please help!

First of all I over think... over analyze. Often I'll spend way too much time thinking about something than actually doing things. I don't know why. But I also have a great tendency to run out of energy fast and daze out, then become lazy. I feel SO guilty about this, but ironic how it sounds I still do it! Like my room is HORRIBLE right now. There's TONS of things to clean in the house. I've dropped two of my classes in college because I was missing too much, I eat out my emotions (mostly when no one can see me) I spend way too much time trying to make myself feel better by watching movies, going on quizilla (taking personality quizes) or looking at my myspace page. All this makes me feel like a HORRIBLE person. I feel like I have many addictions that will always stay with me. My parents are pretty much the same... I don't know if its contageous. We all don't have much energy... And despite all this people don't even know because when we're outside of our house we are nice. Why?

For the last few months I feel like I have PMS all the time. That is the only way I can describe it. I have huge mood swings. I am always tired and I always have an attitude. I am going to the doctor tuesday and I am afraid he wont know what to do for me or worse, think it is all in my head. Has anyone else felt like this before? Do you have any tips to help me get the best care from my doctor??

So, I've been diagnosed with depression for some time. I've been on several different anti-depressents, but they either made the depression worse, or in severe cases made me suicidal. Because of this I've been off medication for years, but now I'm looking for ways to aliviate the symptoms that don't involve medication. Does anyone know of ways to do this?

I have seen that is recommended for depression but how much do you take. I am not on any medications at all.

is it possible to be so depressed, so sick of life, that you could go to sleep and not wake up? is it possible that mental pain could end up being the cause of your death?

After ending a 3 year relationship, this other girl and I dated for a week after hanging out a few times. We hit it off so well and I had such high expectations for us. Anyway…I think I scared her off. Eventually – things went south and she decided we should just be friends…which didn’t go over too well either.

Anyway, since then – I’ve been trying SO hard to pick myself up and feel better. During the day, I am usually fine. I have things to keep me busy. I go to school full time, and from the moment I wake up until anywhere between 7 and 9 PM I can keep busy.

But when 9, 10, or 11 PM rolls around – I start feeling depressed. I’m alone in my apartment, no one is around…and these failed relationships consume my thoughts! I hate feeling like this – and I’d love to be able to go to bed happy again.

Will this just get better with time? Do I need to find a woman? What, if anything, can I do?

I'm feeling pretty low right now. I'm a single mother going through a divorce. I feel like nothing is turning out right in my life and i'm struggling financially. As hard as I try, I feel like i'm getting nowhere fast. Sometimes I feel like there's no place left for me in this world and I really hate feeling that way. What can I do to make these feelings go away? Can someone say something that might make me feel somewhat better?
