Mental Health - January 2007

I was taking a 25mg dose of Celexa a little over a year now for anxiety; I spoke to my doctor about coming off of the medication because most of my anxiety arose after a tramatic car accident almost 2 years ago. He told me to take a pill every other day for a week and after 7 days to stop taking them completely, which I did. This is my second day of not taking the medication and my head feels, I'm not sure how to explain it, kind of "loopy". I was curious to know if this is just a temporary feeling that will go away once the medication completely leaves my system? I've been ok as far as the anxiety goes, it's just this "loopy" feeling that is bugging me...any input is appreciated!

I get quite depressed, and very emotional the next day after drinking alcohol. Even after one or two drinks! Why does this happen? Have i got an intolerance to alcohol? I don't want to stop drinking as its very sociable.

I believe that there are way too many medications on the market nowadays. There is something out there for every little thing that ails you. If you pass gas, medication; If your legs move in your sleep, medication, if you can't hang at a party, medication. Are we becoming a society of robots that can no longer feel or experience anything? What do you guys think?

I need to find the best doctor out there. I've been on Ambien for years, Lunesta, Restoril, Sonota, and a half a dozen other sleeping aids. I'm off all of it now cause I have become immune to them all. Right now I'm getting about 2-3 hours sleep a night and just don't know how much more I can stand.

The waiting list for counselling via my GP is very long, and I don't think I can wait that long. Private counselling isn't an option - is there any charities that might be able to help me? The problems all stem from sexual abuse/rape 8 years ago.

I was curious about when you should end family nudity? I am 16 years old and my parents raised us in the nudist lifestyle and we often attend nude gatherings and clubs etc. But I am wondering if I should tell my parents we should stop. My cousin sister Courtney is13 who my parents took after my aunt died lives with us and is in the 7th grade and lately when she has been walking around nude, I have been feeling a little different. I dont know if I like it anymore. She is mature and developed now and I am feeling a little weird around her especially when I am nude also. Things are starting to happen. What should I do?

One moment I can be happy and the next I can be crying my eyes out. I've been diagnosed with depression when I was about 10 but now I'm 18 and I've gotten over it, what was making me feel that way. This time it feels diffrent I don't have the feeling of I'm worthless or helpless. I have been working my buns off for minnium wage and what I don't spend on food, bills, and rent, I spend on daycare for my daughter and nephew, I admet that my parents help me out alot now in that area, I wouldn't be able to afford daycare without them. I was wondering if anyone knows what I'm experiencing because I sure don't.. thanks..

Please help me. I've had horrible mental problems for a long time and I want them to go away forever. I know there are good Christians out there that have them too. Is it just because we don't have enough faith to be healed? That's what people have told me. I've also been told that I just need to do this or that, but then end up getting worse. I give myself more pressure and get frustrated when I do what they say, but then don't get better. After my big breakdown I seem to be better, but I still have to take pills for the rest of my life. I just hate that. I'm so tired of these mental problems. Am I doing something wrong? I really don't think so. I believe I've tried my very best to seek healing through God in every way possible.

Sometimes when I pass below a streetlight it goes out. This has been happening for about 12 years now. It only happens when I pass under certain lights though. There's one I walk under everynight on my way home and last week it happened everytime. There were a lot of other people ahead of me but it didn't happen to them. Sometimes I can do it on purpose just by concentrating hard. I don't try it often 'cos it freaks me out. I tried it last night again AND IT WORKED ! Could it be my aura or something? I used to find it funny but this is something that's really starting to bother me so some serious answers would be appreciated.

Our 12 year old son has recently started pulling out his hair and now he has a bald patch which we only noticed when he got his hair cut recently, he will be going to secondary school in september and I am worried that he will be ridiculed/bullied. We know that this is an anxiety disorder but we don't want him on prozac, does anyone know a good alternative treatment or therapy that will work. He will be seen by a child psychologist shortly - we are waiting for an appointment.
