This has been going on since I was just a little girl. It's not a constant thing, and it happens spontaneously...but I feel as if there are bugs crawling on me. I assure you I am a very clean person, practice good hygiene, wash my clothes and bedding once a week, and live in a clean environment. But I have been suffering from social anxiety and panic attacks since the beginning of my teenage years. Could this be some kind of stress hallucination? Maybe nerve damage? If anyone has any serious answers it'd be greatly appreciated.

I am going to my first appointment with a therapist today. I am not really sure what to expect. Will she just be asking questions or will I have to give her my life story? I am just a litlle nervous and would like some insight on what to expect. Thank you.

Is it possible that someone who is bright can be diagnosed with Auditory Processing Disorder? I'm starting to suspect that my 8 year has this. I always thought something was not right but I just waited. The thing is, is that he is not behind school academically. He is actually at the top or even over the top of hIs class. He is a great speller and his report card shines on any academic subject. The reason why I question is that he does have a hard time following directions. He becomes very flusterd. I have to repeat everything twice for him. He is also sensitive to noise (it is better now but was worse when he was much younger) and he is not very coordinated with sports. Now that he is eight, he is starting to see that he is a little different because he did ask me as to why he gets confuse easily. I can see how this can take a toll on his selF-esteem. The only thing that is helping him is that he is a good student and is good playing the piano. Lacks a bit of social skills.

I asked a seperate question about mental health and the consensus was that I was depressed. I don't know if I am or not, but something is wrong with me and it's effecting all areas of my life.

I have no counselor and no doctor. The only time I was ever in counseling was in college and they provided a certain amount of time in counseling for free. My dad is a doctor, so he's always taken care of me medically, but he has cancer now and is selling his practice. I don't even know if he can prescribe drugs anymore.

So what can I do to determine whether my problem could be fought with drugs? I assume you need a psychiatrist for this, but I hear they are expensive. My wife and I are have about hundred dollars a month left over after all the bills are paid, so we're pretty much living paycheck to paycheck. Money is an object for us, so I don't know if there's a way to afford a shrink even if I need one.

What should I do? Feel free to check my previous question for more info.

My doc told me to take 150 mg once a day for 10 days and then up it to two pills a day. The third day I had the worst panic attack I've ever had in my life, so I called the psychiatrist, and she said to go back down to 150 mg for now. Can I get better without taking the 300 mg? I felt awful taking it.

I am 23 years old and I dont have a single achievment because I cant seem to be interested in one thing for a long time. From the age of 15 I have changed my field of study more than 10 times!..Currently Im studying for a Diploma and the exam is so close - and I want to switch to a different field!...I keep thinking - maybe I'll be better in that field because of my personality etc..and although I started my current course with the greatest excitement, I cant even open a book now I get so bored. When I started this course I studied all the time and I was really excited about the subject. How do i break this habit?...I feel that Im going into deep depression because of this. Im not a crazy person! - other than this I have a very normal married healthy life!. Is there a term for this kind of illness? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

So. I have an anxiety disorder.

It seems to happen without fail whenever I get hungry. And I get hungry more frequently.
I thought someone was wrong with my blood sugars or something; I've lost 15 lbs in two months, and I'm not a big guy.
Anyone else experience this? Any thoughts?

OK this has been on my mind for quite a while, I think my niece is being mollested and am not sure what to do. My mother and I tried to talk to my sister about it and all she said is yes her behaviour is strange but never actually did anything. You see I have noticed that she is always touching herself, and at first I thought it was harmless exploration of ones own body as children often do, but this is not harmless touching, she knows what she is doing and she does it a lot, when she is on the toilet, in the bath, watching TV, her hands are always down there. I feel as a close relative I have to do something, but what? The worst part of it is I caught her inappropriately touching my daughter which was extremely alarming, I mean I know they are ages 5 and 4, but this girl has a very unhealthy facination with touching, I have explained to my own daughter that it is not right for her cousin to do that to her and she almost understands me, so what do I do for my niece?

i.e., why do we have contagious, temporary, loss of memory when, in the middle of conversation, the person talking to us forgets a word and asks us to remind him/her and we find that for a brief moment we also cannot remember the word or name?

i'm 18, just started my job and I really don't find it interesting. I get upset easy, and don't remember the last time I felt happiness. I always think negatively. I think life is pointless. I feel like i'm always making other people feel bad/hurt. I always dwell on the past (negative things) I lose desires, goals easily. I think of death, and feelsuicide is sometimes an option (i'd never do it but - I am an (orthodox) christian and I know the consequences - my belief is the only thing keeping me going. I could go on, but I think it's obvious already lol. Basically, I don't like myself and my life and i'm getting used to this, and it's also having an effect on my family too.

I'm not always like this, but most of the time I have a fair few of those problems with me all the time.

Sorry for the massive post! could someone give me some helpful advice, thank you so much in advance!

Dad likes to slam the doors so loud in the house that I have a ruptured eardrum. Even if we plead with him to stop, it just made him have more rage. Plus he slammed the doors even harder next time....

i need to know if i am totally messed up... ppl say that i am anorexic and i can change if i want to all i have to do is eat... well if only it were that simple... the truth is... i have dealt with food issues since i was a little girl... five to be honest so how did i chose to be anorexic? i didnt even know what that was 16 years ago... also i dont look anorexic... but thats cuz i have struggled with bulimia in that time too but now its back to the restrictive ways again. So my question is... are Bulimia and Anorexia choices that we consciencly make (a life style) or is it just a sad disorder that i am stuck with? (I say stuck because i do not have the financial means to help myself and i cannot do this alone!)
