I've been on Zyprexa for schizophrenia, but couldn't stand the lethargy. I need something else. Maybe Geodon, but I have a weak heart, so I think Abilify might be my best choice. However, I don't have health insurance or the money for it. I'm in the Sacramento area. What are my options?

I have been depressed for a while...And for the last few days, I've seriously thought about taking my own life. I'm not thinking that at this moment, but I might feel differently later on. I never know. Should I go ahead and try to get help, or should I wait?

I have a major tension problem and most of it goes to my neck. I go to a masouse twice a month and can't really afford more than that. I try to calm myself down, but it gets really hard to get my body to listen. It causes headaches, insomnia at times and it may be causing another health problem. I am even tense in my sleep...I wake up with a clenched, sore jaw every morning. What can I do to help myself?

I have not been diagnosed with depression. But I have been asking to go to the doctor for several years now to be checked for depression and my mom refused to take me or pay for any of this. (I basically know that I am, I guess I just need a professional's assurance.) Now I'm 18 and have NO extra money whatsoever to go see a doctor, let alone pay for medication if diagnosed. I don't know anything about insurance. Help!

I feel depressed most of the time.

Nothing has worked out in my life. My child lives with my ex and she is not doing well in school. My ex and I thought that we would get back together, but we could not for various reasons. I feel like i have failed at my marriage. I just started a new job and I absolutely hate it.

I constantly feel like crying and am bottled up. I don't know what to do. I went to a Thanksgiving dinner and could not stay because I was afraid I would break down and cry in front of everyone. I feel sad looking at the state of my life compared to others.

So, I chose to attend a luncheon with a Newly Singles group, stop by at some friends house and then come home on Thanksgiving. My parents with whom I live went to the friend's house. I look and feel like a total wreck. I feel like I have nothing to look forward to in life and nothing positive to talk about in my life.

okay, i guess i'm not that addicted. I'm a teenager who spends around 2 - 4 hours each day watching t.v. afterschool. I guess it's not that bad but i'm a really busy person. I'm on the school basketball team, in nearly all the clubs in the school, has many volunteer jobs and paying jobs. I also have high expectations of myself when it comes to marks so i study a lot. just don't have the time to watch so much t.v. Yet, i can't help it. Is there any ways you know that can help me?

so....if someone was a cutter, does that mean that they will always have the thought of cutting again, in the back of their minds? or will it go away? and for someone who was a cutter for about a year and a half, is cutting KIND OF like a drug, where the person is more vulnerable to start cutting again, then for another person who has never cut, to start cutting?

When I take Xanax I notice that sometimes it will kick in in about 30 min. and at other times up to two hours. Is this normal for anyone else?

... and she keeps threatening to send my to a different school away from the very few friends I've made! She is telling me that I am crazy and that she is taking me to a phyciatrist and I don't want to go because they dont understand! Yesterday (before she found out) I said I was going to kill myself and she was just like whatever! She is saying she is going to take away all my stuff and saying I'm 'just doing it to be cool' and but she is the one who caused me to do it in the first place! What should I do!?
