This year my gym class is different and we have to take showers after class. It gives me creeps to be around a bunch of naked guys.
Is there any thing I could do to get out of practice or help me with my issue?
P.S For you retards out there, I am not gay, got that?

I was diagnosed with depression and for a long time i didnt feel like do anything or talking . But lately i just get a sudden burst of energy but only in talking not like a physical enegery. Where i'm just asking a lot of questions about everything, and just talking about random things. Now i know some might say it might be bipolar but i heard bipolar is when you get very happy along with the Physical enery which is not the case for me (because im not happy i'm still depressed even when the burst of energy comes and second once again its not a physical energy) Is this ok or is this another problem?

I've had the same psychiatrist for 4years who diagnosed me with hypomania. I took lithobid and an antidepressent faithfully for 3 years. The medicine did not help me and I never really fit into the "hypomanic" signs and symptoms. I finally got off the meds for the last year and saw a psychologist instead. I realize now that I have anxiety that I learned to control through my psychologist. However, I still see the psychiatrist and he keeps telling me that I will never get better. He really wants me to keep taking the meds. Also, he told me that I should never take antidepressents without lithobid because I could have a mania (which I've never had). Then, last month he told me I SHOULD take an antidepressent to help me sleep. Apparently there's an anitdepressent out there that helps people sleep? This is really making no sense to me. Can anyone explain? Should I even keep seeing him since I was misdiagnosed and do not take medications anymore?

My psych is closed until after New Years, how long do I let this sadness go on before I call for help. Part of this is I just went bsck to work and am very tired. Also my job that I lovedd just seemed to be a dead end. I am 53, single and the joboffers no prospect of retirement benefits. This is part of what is making me sad. I knowno other job skills to change careers. Help

Hello

I'm 28 years old. I just recently started getting panic attacks, nausea, fits of depression, suicidal thoughts, and violent rages. I was never like this as a child, and now I need help. I can't get work because of I feel like I can't concentrate, and I don't sleep very well either.

If anyone on here can give me a clue to what I have, please let me know. All I know is that I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy, and I can't live like this any longer.

Thank you for your time

I was raped in a cab (Mexico City) four years ago... and I thought I was fine. But yesterday I had a tremendous nervous breakdown and I suddenly find myself feeling the same fear and anger and hatred I felt that very day... I may have made a mistake not ever telling anyone, out of both shame and the desire not to generate any sympathy of conflict within my family unit, and also because I thought I was fine and I had overcome it. Turns out I was wrong... What should I do? I feel a mess....

Hi,

I go to a psychiatrist and want to know if he is beaking the law. I am bipolar and have OCD. I went to him the other day and when I walked in his office and sat down and said hi, he leaned over in my face (and he had a bad cold) and said, "What's up BIOTCH!" REALLY loud like 2 inches from my face. I never talk to him but politely and this upset me. I also told him that my father had fallen and broken two ribs and he said, "What did you do, hit him?". My Father has Parkinsons Disease and it is hard taking care of him and having a mental illness I had a really bad time with withdrawal from Paxil and am afraid to take medications now let alone something he prescribes me. Being a mental health professional and treating me this way is he breaking the law? What if I was suicidal and he said all of this,and what if he talks to other patients this way and they are suicidal, isn't he putting people at risk operating the way he does? Please tell me what you would do?

Thank you,Justme

If you seem to be controlled by your emotions and can't control one's impulses....and you feel like you're not yourself but another person.

it keeps following me, creeping up on me when I least expect it. It keeps spying on me and I don't like being alone with him. I feel very very violated when I get my jar of KY Jelly out and want to have some time for myself. I feel he is watching and it messes me up. Please, I think he's going to hurt me. My eyes is going crazy trying to watch his every move. help me!!!

I just posted about health anxieties and worry.I do go to therapist and I do take meds.The therapist says its up to me to change the way I think .I try and I have good days and bad days but never wal like this before.I want my life back .The non worrier that had everything in controll.I have just about lost all hope that this can be achieved again.I don't even know why I worry .Everything seems to be the way it should be health wise.I am geting older and feel things I have never felt before,It freaks me out and shouldn't its just inncoent sensations and I never have heart attacks or strokes from them .I have almost given up all hope of every being the way I used to be .I have known people that lived like this for many years..What a miserable life.One time something just clicked in me and I wasn't afraid for many years .Now it tuned itsef right back on and its hard to turn it off again since im not real sure how I did it before.I just want to be normal again.

I have been on many anti depressants like Avanza, Lexapro, Effexor, Zoloft and Zypreza, now l take none. My moods are like four seasons in one day. I cry for no reason and l get angry at friends and family at a drop of a hat. I'm maniplative at times and get frustrated when l dont get my way. I act like a spoilt child but l'm 31 years old.
When l go to see my doctor l don't know how l'll act untill l get there, either defensive or emotional, whatever works for me, doesn't matter l get no reaction regardless. I cut myself again , l have more than enough pill thanks to my Doctor for and overdose, but that is to be seen as yet.
I don't know what to do? I'm not happy or sad just lost and confussed.
People say they want to help , but what they are really saying is go away and bother someone else with your issues.
No one really CARES. Its a cold and lonely place we live in .

I have been diagnosed with depression, but sometimes think i could be more bi-polar and my closest friends agree with me. My psychiatrist doesn't think this is the case though. But I don't know whether my psychiatrist knows me well enough to make such a decision?

I had a dream a few months ago, (In-body) that I was walking along a road with hills on either side, and to my right was a little farm sitting atop a hill! I went inside the small house next to it, (which was occupied by the owner of the farm) and a kind-looking old man was playing cards with his buff trucker brothers. He got out of his seat and showed me his crops. They were flowers that grew to the size of cornstalks! They were of every color, and if you stuck your hand inside, you would find an edible seed that looked like a small eggplant but was the color of the flower it came from. The man had a small stable in the back where he kept sheep. He never sheared them, but their coats were neat and trim. He used the sheep for harvesting the seeds. They would go in a straight line, side by side, and go through the field, rolling the seeds as they went. After a while, the seeds were in a neat pile. Then I woke up. What does this all mean? I have a green thumb and like to grow corn. ->
