I have been feeling "under the weather" since February this year, due to several things going on in my life, that are out of my control. I have been to the doctor, who has said that my only option is to take anti-depressants.

I can understand how this may help, but I'm not keen on taking tablets unless absolutely necessary. I have started to feel better over the past month or so, thanks to the support from my boyfriend but I'm still not 100% myself and wondered if anyone had any "natural" ways of curing depression?

I could give a lot more detail to my life. But let's just say yesterday I was fine and then suddenly today I just felt so down. Don't feel like doing anything. I think I want to be alone.

Has anyone else felt like this? What do you suggest doing?

Thanks

I know Xanax will calm me down, but will it interfere with my memory recall and performance during the exam?

I was prescribed Lorazepam because I have a very serious phobia toward public speaking. Tomorrow will be the first day I actually try the medication before a presentation. How much time before the presentation do I have to take the pill? Is suppose to help me with high bp, anxiety, and nervousness? How am I supposed to feel during the presentation?

How do I forget people from my past? These people I'm referring to are my extended family, former friends and acquaintances. I know that they are definitely not thinking about me but I waste so much energy and time thinking about them and being upset that they don't like me or care about me. I find that I am unable to move on with my life because I can't seem to get a good paying job, can't seem to get new friends and can't seem to find a partner. All this is making me very unhappy. I try to reach out to people but nothing is working.

About five years ago, I woke up and found that I was levitating. It did not feel like a dream, and I couldn't get down. About a week later, I woke up but I couldn't move. I looked and saw a man climb through my 8th story window. He looked like Jesus. Then he stood over my bed and held me down and laughed maniacally. Again, it did not seem like a dream. It seemed very real. Am I schizophrenic maybe? Serious answers please.

I cant even look at someone with a paper cut or anything or else I feel very light headed and start to pass out. If I see someone grab someone's wrist or pull someone the same thing happens. I can't hear anyone yell like something hurts or even see a look of pain on their faces. Does anyone know why this might be happening? Or how I can make it better?

im wondering why people do it. i used to actually do it, but i never knew why. i have had a rough past, ill admit that. but it was a year ago and most of the stuff i have gone through is behind me (i still think about it a lot). but i havnt done it for a long long time. i am pretty happy most of the time.
so why do people cut? and could you mabey tell me why i might have done it a while back?
and please dont call anyone or me an "emo" i almost hate that word. such a stereotype!

1. My mother (who I am not so close with) died, and suddenly I am filled with such pain that I scream and cry, and in my dream, I wake up screaming and crying (I think I am awake but I am not). I actually awaken in totall silence.

2. I die. Me and a friend are forced to shoot eachother to escape slow death from someone else. I awake gasping for breath.

3. I fight with a girl my age over a cell phone, then I beat her with a baseball bat and wake up right as I hit her.

My dreams all end in violence, death, and extreme emotional distress.

What could this mean?

I've been an addict for the past four years. I've been clean since March, but i get really bad seasonal depression, and i had one slip up 2 weeks ago when it was put in front of me (i have been trying to staying away from people who use, and i have for the most part), Today i bought 3 points of gak. I quit on my own, cold turkey in March, i've never stolen anything, or lost a job to drugs. I don't look like a junkie, i have been working steadily and living on my own since i was 17 (i'm 23 now), i have always paid my bills, and i have never sold my body to get junk. Right now i have a full time job and i go to college for Graphic Design. I'm taking some coding classes (HTML) and because of my ADD, i have a really hard time focusing on coding my websites. Meth seems to be the only way that i can finish my HTML websites without getting distracted, or forgetting something and getting really confused. If anyone knows of alternative to help me concentrate i would be so grateful.

My dad woke but his clock was broken. ON his watch it was 2:00 pm. SO he thought "Oh I am so awake and had a good sleep." BTW, he slept real late like 3 am. Then he realized it was 8:30 pm and he thought "Oh, I'm so tired. I didn't sleep enough."

So tiredness IS physological? Agree?

I've had something happen this past week that is causing me to stress out big time. It's over with now, but I keep have this nagging fear that something will happen again before I can get it settled. It's financial problems. My muscles are stiff, I have had a lot of headaches and I'm not sleeping right. Can anyone recomend anything natural or medical wise that can help me relax. I hear yoga is good and I try and read but sometimes that doesn't work. Are there any vitamins or medications that can help.
I'm trying to get into my doctor but can't till next week. I already have social anxiety and I'm borderline depression. I already feel like I'm going to be fully into depression if these feelings don't go away.

What are some of the main signs/symptoms of panic attacks? I think I had one the other night: for some reason I felt really scared though I didn't know why, my heart was racing, and I felt really shaky. It lasted about an hour. I had one similar to that about two months ago. My dad had panic attacks when he was younger and now he is manic-depressive. Also, what is the best way to help control this (I don't have medical insurance and sure as hell don't have extra money to spend on therapy)
