I suffer from depression but I feel like I cant tell anyone about it. I have friends who say I can tell them but when I do they get pissed off and tell me to drop the pity party. I've been a self mutilator for years (cutting and burning)...and when my friends (the same ones who dont wanna hear my "whining") find out about it they get pissed off and wont talk to me. I feel like I have no one to turn to and hurting myself is my only outlet. The problem is it seems like I have nothing in my life that I should be "upset" about. Im not privelaged, by any means..but I know theres people who have horrible lives, so feeling like this makes me feel like a bad person.Does being depressed and a cutter make me a bad person?..How do I deal when nobody wants to hear it?

Also- I dont expect people to want to hear about my problems..I just wish they wouldnt pretend they want to help, and then get mad when I actually try to talk to them about it.

A friend of mine goes to a VA clinic. They tell him they haven't found a diagnosis for him. He calls it a "brain freeze".

Symptoms: Total lack of concentration with no way to respond to questions or statements. He can not finish something he states. He can move around, smoke, but has a zombie look to his demeaner. If he is at a check out counter with me, I would ask him to take out his wallet and go through the steps of purchasing. He wouldn't be able to take out the wallet.

These attacks or spells come about every 4 -7 days. Anyone know of someone with similar behavior and a diagnosis? Anything to help him.

My son is 15 and has always had some difficulties. He is not diagnosed with anything but has been called borderline for ADHD, and ODD...but nothing ever consistant enough to get him a diagnosis...I guess you could say hes a 'difficult child' that I have just learned to manage. Hes very implusive and seems to have tendancies towards addictions.

But now Im really worried-hes 'in love' and is so obsessive about it-him and the girl MUST be together ALL the time. They call it emo love-it seems so dark..Im worried for them both. They seem like they would die if they were separated.

Now his behaviour has been even weirder. Hes so emotional, even crying when hes reprimanded for not following a rule (this is a kid who did nothing but laugh at you or shrug you off all his life) He wont say whats wrong but his girlfriend told me its because he feels guilty for all the bad things hes ever done (new!)

I just found a note in his room that says 'I love you but I hate myself'

Is your depression mild or severe? How long are your sessions usually with both doctors? How do you deal with the sleep-inducing effect of anti-depressants and anti-anxiety medications? What helped you the most besides your medication?

For the past couple of nights there have been strange noises coming from beneath my bed. Eventually I got up the courage to look, but I saw nothing. What should I do?

I just came from a divorce and bought this computer in the beginning just to search on the internet, as needed, or for school and now with all that yahoo has to offer, I find myself glued here for hours being entertained. Is there anyone suffering my addiction?

I don't feel like getting out to meet people, but find this very entertaining and good therapy. My marriage ended and I am numb of pain because so much has happened to me that I only care about getting ahead in life, my family and most important, my son not making the same mistakes as me and my ex with our personal life.

Wondered if anyone dealing with a family member with Alzheimers could tell me how far along in the disease a person can't remember the name of familiar foods. Also how bad are they when they don't eat properly because they can't seem to figure out what they want to eat because they can't draw a connection between naming the food and choosing to eat it.

We are pretty sure my mom in law has Alzheimers but we are concerned with the changes we see in her. Her children won't confront her with her problems so dealing with her is a guessing game.

I've been dealing with a lot of stress for 3 months straight and no matter what I do I still have it and it doesn't go away; even if I do the things I like. I have trouble sleeping at night because of it and sometimes when it's really bad I get chest/upper arm pains and I know that's not good. The stress is coming from two friends that are dear to me but have changed and overdose on sedatives; when I try to tell them it can kill them they blow me off and call me mean; I don't know where I went wrong and I feel like killing myself because they've been my friends for the longest time and are the only two people I really talk to.

For years now I have been trying to get over things from my past. My childhood, things that happened to me, things I did when I was a teenager, anything really. I feel ok sometimes, but then it sneaks up on me. I have bouts of depression and after a few days I feel good again for a while. My husband doesn't know what to say to me when I try to talk to him. I just want to be normal, and not live in fear. I'm scared of everything basically. I just want to put my mind at ease and enjoy my life now. Help me if you can. Thanks.
