Mental Health - November 2006

Iv'e been asking before about whether or not Im depressed, and I've just decided that I am. But right now I have absolutely no feeling. I feel extremely empty. I dont wanna do anything. I don't care about anything. I don't know what I want. I don't even want to be happy. I dont want to sleep or anything. I'm just sitting here. Doing nothing. I want to feel something. Preferably sadness. I don't know why I want to feel sad. But I can't since my relatives are staying at my house for Thanksgiving weekend.

"blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...

thats how i feel right now

My sister is really depressed and takes all kinds of medications but they are not helping. She says she is going to counselor but then never goes. My parents baby her and allow her to continue to stay stuck and not grow. It bothers me cause i love my sister. She spends every meal and every single waking day at parents house. She has no self esteem. She doesn't hang out with friends or even talk to guys. I know this makes her sad and she wants to change..but my parents never encourage it. She spent a week on bedrest because of a very minor infected toe. IT drives me crazy because i am tough and i think she needs a dose of reality because my parents only tell her exactly what she needs to hear. She has surrounded herself with "yes men". I don't know what to do anymore sometimes i have to stay away from going over there because i feel like my parents and my sister can not handle the truth. Sometimes i wonder if all these medications are just making here worse. Please help!!!

why the crows mock at swans? why the psychotics call psychiatrist a psycho? why religious fascists indulge in slinging mud against rationalists and character assasination? what sort of pleasure one gets in weaving conspiracy theories and out of sheer jealousies make base less allegations against the people who differ with their ideology? are these symptoms clear manifestation of paranoia? or due to inferiority complex? shall we have to apply freud's psychodynamic theory that explains paranoid symptoms or follow the guidelines suggested by alfred adler? please claarify. as i have to deal with some persons who manifested these symptoms. professional advice please.

We all need input. What do other care support workers do? Where do you get your help from when you need it?

I have a close family member who hoards and is very unclean. This person has lived without heat and water for 2 years. No one is allowed into the house because what condition it is in. I'm thinking this is a mental illness. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of situation?

when they change personalities, can you see it in their eyes when you look at them? Just wondering if this was possible...

I am not talking about the eye color changing but the look in their eyes when a different 'personality' comes up.

Many parents who were abused as children, find themselves dealing with emotional problems or dysfunctional behaviors when they become parents. To avoid having their children feel they are the cause, or as if they're being rejected, certain parents will share memories of their abusive past to help the child understand them better, or to explain why they no longer have contact with past family members.

In contrast, other parents never share their abusive past, to avoid placing emotional burdens on the child. So the child may view the parents behavior as a form of rejection, or it may leave them confused. Some children may even blame themselves for how a parent behaves when they have no other explanation.

Which of the 2 choices do you feel is best? Would another alternative be better than either? If a parent reveals their past, what would be an appropriate age for the child? Is it a form of abuse to share painful memories of abuse with children?

my shrink already has me taking limictal and lonazepam relating to my bi-polar* diagnosis. recently, he gave me a lot of samples of abilility for what i can not recall (drugs). i have resisted taking it. not following orders and he is a tad annoyed. thinks i am a little paranoid, too. anybody have pros or cons about this stuff? i already take a lot of drugs, primarily for diabetes and followup four-way bypass. my time is short enough for someone 64 years old. my shrink, just like the last one, and the psychologist he works with, remind me a bit of nurse ratchett and staff. doctor knows best?

I want to keep my sanity and my family's sanity. I don't want to cause turmoil with this what seems to be a life long situation. She is 7 months pregnant and the drama seems to never end. I need peace of mind that I can get through this without causing my family the pain of this illness.

For me this life is just an existence. Oh sure, I know what to do to move away from grief and pain, but in addition to that, I want to know what to move TOWARDS -to have a drive, to have a reason to get out of bed.

So, please let me know TWO GREAT reasons to live.

(no religious answers please, for in my opinion religion has caused so much grief and many wars on this world)

have very very many problems now and very many things needed to do now. I know I won't manage to do all needed in time or will do this bad because it's just to much of this! That's why I've become so depressed that I even can't do anything at all and only just sit on-line or watch a movie or do anything else but not what I have to. I almost stopped going out of my house. And I fill time passing so quickly! And I also feel like nobody loves me and nobody really cares about me. I've also broken up with a boyfriend with who we were together for several years and now he doesn't speak to me so that's also hard to feel. Can anyone help me with an advice how to get rid of this depression? Thank you very much! Maria
