The problem I'm having doesn't have much to do with cleanliness/organizing things (well, I do have this thing about keeping my hands clean and washed),it has more to do with the thoughts I am having.When I was a bit younger, I'd have these unwanted thoughts that just wouldn't go away. Now it's like, I'll imagine doing/saying/writing something inappropriate, embarassing, dangerous, bad,etc.and later on really BELIEVE that I did it, and constantly worry about what people are going to think about me if I did in fact do it. I know for a fact that I didn't do anything like that at all, but I can't help THINKING that I did. For example, if I'm driving in my car, and I see someone walking or biking on the side of the road and I pass them, I can't help but think that I hit them or something even if I know for a fact that I didn't, so I check to see if they are still there(alive).Even when I am writing someone an email message or writing up an essay, I have to make 2 copies to make sure.

I'm looking to hear about other people's strategies for either supporting a borderline person or caring for yourself and dealing with the manipulation and blame that are a part of the disorder. I really need to hear from someone caring for a bpd that understands some of the difficulties and key concerns for both the bpd and the carer. I would love to hear about personal experiences. Any help would be appreciated.

if a person struggled all life,got higher education, owned lot of property, helped strangers with money...then he lost his job.
his back got injured, lost in stock.
now he calls normal things , a big problem...he can't do anything...he went thru several painful tests, just because he thought, he had cancer.
even if he gets dental problem, he says no antibiotic can cure it.
before last week he did not sleep for almost 10 days.although doctor had given him Lexapro and ambien...he kept walking day and night, he'll sleep a little but would wake upsoon....he said he did not feel even tired...he now tells, he wanted to harm himself...one day he thought is his last day, and told his brother to come, ...I am his sister ,I too went there and comforted him, and without prescription gave him lorazepam, and he slept within 25 minutes ...later doctor suggested Lorazzepam and lexapro.
when will this medicine cure him?..what is the name of this depression? he is a bit better now

My doctor has recently put me on 3 different types of medication.Adderall20mg (for problems with my concentration in school). Lexapro10mg(for my anxiety,whcih i take with adderall) and lunesta 5mg (before i go to bed at night.)

First,i was wondering if it will better help release your medication if you eat something with it,because ill be really feeling good and then it just dies down.Ive only been on it for 2 weeks and i really dont think its wearing off.But ive heard that if you eat something it will help it release better in your system???
ALSO,are all these medications safe to take together(lexapro and adderall).what i mean is being on 3 different medications which are pretty serious drugs hurt me in any way? (lunesta i only take right before i go to bed.I go to a phyciatrist and therapist who are keeping a close eye on me.

I'm so tired of being a hypochondriac but can't seem to quit. Any ideas on how I can get over being a hypochondriac?

I'm only in my mid 20's and I am dying. I was born with a rare illness, and I was lucky to find and make friends online with the same illness. But now I have watched them die one by one. Now it is my turn. and now that death is knocking at my door, I'm not sure how to cope.

I believe in God, but not the Bible or religion. That's a whole other story, but please do not give me answers that have to do with God, or faith, or praying.

While I know full hysterectomies exist, is there surgery to actually remove the vaginal canal/vulva itself? If so, can it be elective?

I just got through watching Flight 93 on television. I couldn't handle it then and I am having a hard time doing so now. How has your lives changed since then and how did you handle the attack?

Christmas and vocations are coming up, everyone should be happy and exited, right? Well not me. Things have been absolutely horrible lately and I'm feeling like crap. The last blow came when I realized that I failed two of my classes in college, which might delay my graduation. If I failed because I did not study, I could accept it as my fault. However, many things happened in my life that were out of my control ( that are too personal to discuss here), and I did try to do good to the best of my ability and still failed! This makes it even worse because I can't get a straight answer from academic advisors if I will be able to graduate or not! Now I get a whole month off college, and how am I supposed to enjoy it when all I'm thinking about are the problems I'm having?

I want to try shrooms at the Pink Floyd laser show next month, but i'm a little worried, I've heard that you could have a bad trip if the area is full of people, so I don't know. Also, how long does the trip last? And what exactly happens, I hear that colors seem more vivid but what else happens? I am not looking to make this a habit, I really only want to try it once (no, i'm NOT a druggie so don't be rude please) and I figured a light show would be pretty awesome. Any suggestions?

...obese people?!

Well it's not so much a fear as a general nausea when I look at them. Once I saw one eating 6 Big Macs and I threw up a bit into my Chicken McNuggets
