I was dating a guy for one year. I ended the relationship recently.

He had a problem with being honest, with himself (especially) and towards me. He would talk about the person he wanted to be but never made an attempt to change. He found refuge in other people's problems. He would dwell on things, for example... He would obsess for days about his sisters' private affairs. He would spend hours talking about other peoples problems but never his own. He hasn't worked for a year and lives with his best mates parents (he's 31 years old and has lived with them for two years). He prefered to spend time with his friends' child (6 years old) than be with me. He was detached whilst making love - he wanted to get it over and done with. He never understand when he hurt me, therefore he couldn't respond compassionately. He was basically empty. I want to support him as a friend. How do you tell someone (that you care for) that you think they may have mental health problems?

I suspect I could be Bipolar, but it seems like a lot of people say they have the disorder quite casually. Like they don't really mean it or they're just looking for something to call themselves. It also seems like I could just be moody. I'm a 15 year old girl. Even so, I'm always either ecstatic or depressed. There's never an inbetween. Never a state of simple being. Though I'm rarely angry, which I believe is a symptom of being Bipolar. Also, I believe my father has it. I'm pretty sure it can be hereditary.

I know that I have low self confidence. I have a tendancy to get down on myself to the point where my thought are almost all negative ones towards myself. This happens 3 or 4 times a month for the past 6 months, really badly to the point where I'm moping around and on some occasions even reduced to tears (not full on crying though). I never had a girlfriend or any real friends before christmas, and this girl gave me her # on christmas and we've been talking. I thought this would make the episodes go away, but Everytime one little thing happens between us, (twice) i've slipped into one of my moods. I'm sick of it. What's wrong with me?
I'm 20

I just can't wait for spring and summer! I'm so bored cuz I'm stuck indoors all the time now and I can't wait for the warmer weather so I can go outside and play sports and lay in the sun. I know I'll just have to wait it out, but what can I do in the meantime to keep from being so bored and miserable?

for a majority of my life (since l was about 5 or 6) I have been severely depressed,(here is the part I'm stuck on) but I can't figure out why. I don't like to be around people, I hate school (and I have a lot of friends who are not weird so I don't know why I hate it) I cry a lot everyday, sometimes I even wish I was dead. but I really don't know why I feel this way.

Can someone give me a definition- preferably a clear one that I can actually understand- of what it is?
And what some signs of having it are?

Thank you.

a lot of times when i blink, i sort of only blink from one eye and so it looks a little like a wink. Also, it usually happens under pressure.
if there are any exercises that i can do to stop this, please give me a lot of details.

I also have no confidence for a 19 male. I have acne spots and have downs and ups also along with paranoia. I find socalising with family hard and friends nearly impossible. I'm possibly to worried about what people are thinking about me and things ect...
I'm lonely atm and all these problems make life feel awful. I can't work its that bad and driving is also hard.
I have heard about the possibility of having a chemical imbalance in your brain which can cause alot .. how do i go about this. The doctor just seems not to help or be interested..I sleep loads.. have paranoia.. I find it hard to make new friends - keep friends. When I talk .. I talk nonsense and wen im on the net I can act like a retard.. its very strange and need some help what this is and could be.. Ive had blood test - fine.

What legally defines a person as mentally retarded? I have heard that it now means that they are missing three or more basic life skills. Is this true? And if so, where can I find a list of such life skills?
Thank you & God bless.

I think I need to see someone to deal with a lot of things going on in my life, and I may need to go on antidepressiants. I don't know who I should see for this. I have no clue what the difference is between these people.

I'm almost 27 & have pretty much been depressed since my mid teens - badly at times. Although I have a good network of mates, I've never had a g/f & I feel this might be the reason for my depression, especially as I see my friends in great relationships. I had bad experiences with girls in my teens which scarred me & looking back, suspect this was the start of my depression. I always got the impression they wanted nothing to do with me so didn't bother with them as I had no confidence in doing so. I want to try & turn things around but I get the feeling I have missed out on so much & am so behind the pack & therefore, no girl in their right mind is going to want anything to do with me. I realise my shyness hasn't helped but can anyone offer any advice because I really am really worried that I've missed the boat but yet I just do not know what to do? Obviously this is totally embarrassing so would appreciate a bit of tact with regards to responses please.

What are your thoughts?

2007-01-25 09:28:11 · 26 answers · asked by pink_kitten_bubbles 1

its hard to know when things are "bad". What might seem ok to me might not be a good thing. I tend to accept certain things and get used to them. I have almost made the decision to stop my meds so i can get manic so I can get some things done as silly as that sounds. Because this depression crap is really screwin me over. Im stuck. Flat out. I physically need someone to come up to me and force me to say what is on my mind. I want help. I do I really do. Its just I worry about everything else I need to take care of and taking a break would screw that up. Please anyone who understands this what would you do?

Or what do you find lifts your spirits? Exercise? Being with friends and family? Prayer?
