I have been emotional for the last few weeks, there have been past events that i have been thinkin of such as how supportive my parents have been but I misjudged them at the time.

I have so many times that I wanted to break down and cry, but I can't seem to get any tears out.

What does this mean? I don't understand it, I used to be able to cry whenever I needed to.

I'm 14, I was sexually abused by my ex-step-father 3 years ago for about a year. It's really been eating me up inside for the past year, now that I'm past the denial, but I'm not sure if I should tell someone. I'm afraid it'll break up the family, and I'm really so ashamed of the abuse that I don't think I should. Could someone give me advice on what I should do?

I may not be able to get 8 hours of sleep due to insomnia and don't want caffene or drugs (my body reacts bad to them) and I already take Ginko Biloba (herb). What else can I eat or take [like a vitamin] or technique that will help me focus and be more alert?

I go to college, take a course that requires a lot of learning and work, not to mention insomnia

I've been depressed for a while and I think I need some help getting through it. I want to try therapy plus medication, but most psychiatrists won't treat me unless they can see me once a week, which I can't afford.

I know I will benefit in the long run from seeing a shrink, but I also think I can benefit in the short run from medication.

Can I get medication from a psychiatrist without having to seem them every week?

My soon to be ex has a weird attatchment to his mother. It is to the point that it is unhealthy. It has effected our relationship and had a big reason why I filed for divorce. How common is this kind of relationship between Mother an sons?

She controls his life. His relationships, thoughts and finaces. She pays all the bills and holds his business in the palm of her hand. He has no clue to what reality is anymore. She runs his life. He hates it, but cannot seem to break the ties he has with her.

It is very disturbing.

Everything I say someone contradicts, gets mad, ignores me. It drives me nuts. I feel like im really wasting my breath. Im not bossy, as far as i know. Sometimes I give advice. I mean i just talk, but people put me down or push me around. Im really feel like shutting down, and blocking everyone out from my world.

How old was your child when they were diagnosed? How many psychiatrists did you see before they were diagnosed and how has medication effected your child? My daughter is 8 years old and we have been seeing a psychiatrist for almost 2 years now. He says that she has severe anxiety problems, ADD, mild OCD and depression. We have noticed different things with her since birth, but things got real bad 2 years ago. There is bi polar in the family, but the Dr. doesn't want to say she has bi polar disorder, but will say that she is cycling and that he may have to try mood stabilizers on her because we are at the end of the medication list. I am worried about this, but am worried about her also. She has such good days and such bad days. I have looked on the internet, but hearing what other parents have gone through would be a little help. Thank you for your time.

Hello listeners and helpers! I seem to have a lot of problems that are escalating into one big mess!

-I've been out of work for awhile and now starting to worry again. Parts of me think it feels good not working especially at a job I can't stand, but then another part of me feels guilty and my money is dwindeling down. I've just been worrying that I'll never find a job I truly love and will have to work at doing something I despise until I retire.

-Not feeling confident in myself. When I go out in public, I do not have that 'not care what other people think' mentality and that blows my self-esteem.

-Having no really good friends. I lost touch with many of them when they went off the college.

-Either I'm changing or members of my family are changing/growing apart because they all seem in their own world.

-All I do is go on the puter or watch television all day. To some that might sound relaxing, but is it possible to go crazy from doing only this?

What to do?
