A few years ago while I was sleeping with my girlfriend I woke up to find myself trying to make out with her while I was asleep. It was a long night of drinking and I think that I wanted to make love before bed, but we didn't. This happened a few years ago and has not happened again. Is there something menally wrong with me? I don't understand why this is bothering me so much. I talked to her and she remembered and said I was just acting out a dream. Has anyone ever done this before?

I want to be more up than down and I never have an equal balance. So I say go for manic. I will see my doctor in a couple of days and I want to know if anyone here has any suggestions. I am currently on Lamictal and a nerve medication. He added another one that seemed to lift me up a lot, but the side effects were horrible--Ambilify--I think I spelled it correctly. Anyway, what is another good one similar to it or one that will keep my mood up and give me energy?

I understand that one should go for counseling/therapy through psych services, but I also heard one has to go to a general physician to get referred to one? I already know of a therapist, so should i go to a physician or seek a therapist first?

I seem to have a short fuse these days. I end up making a mess of things. I get lonely and reach out, but then I seem to end up not able to cope with how people talk to me. When people say or do things that upset me, I get a lot of anger and I end up feeling dumb and depressed. I have depression, but this anger seems to come out of the blue. What the heck can I do? I seem to be good at wrecking things.

Aren't they sugar-coating it when they call it a disease or a condition? How is it any different than other addictions (heroin, nicotine, meth, whatever) except that it is so common/popular? I'm writing a research essay on the topic, so any credible source material would be fantastic.

I had a realisation this weekend that I am suffering from depression again, I had it 2 years ago and managed to lift myself from it although at the time I was on tablets and had my fiance with me.
I am now in a place where I only know the people from work, I love my job but am finding things increasingly hard to cope with, I think the depression is a reaction to the last year in which I had a rough ride with my fiance then we broke up in October.
I feel relieved now I know whats wrong with me and it explains alot, but now I need to get back on my feet, look after myself - but I dont know where to start, and some days I just cry and cry.
I need to be stronger- I am quite negative about things- which was never me I had a really positive outlook on life at one point.
Im not unnactracitve and would like to say have a great personality thats quite witty, but I feel helpless at the moment, whats the best steps to take- I realise I have to speak to my Doctor.

I am now taking Lexapro, 20mg/day. Still depressed, and looking for a new cocktail, a Dr in our family has recommended Lexapro together with Cymbalta, although other Drs have said just use one or the other. Also Wellbutrin, considering taking it with either Lexapro or Cymbalta ... any relevent knowledge or experience appreciated...thanks.

First off I would like to say that whatever advice I recieve here I know I should not take too seriously and that I should really consult my doctor. But the advice from real people who might have had the same symptoms at some time or another some how make me feel better. So, with that said, lately (more often than not) I have been feeling very ill. I feel very withdrawn and all I want to do is sleep. I feel nauseous at times, but I rarely vomit. I am worried constantly about things like money and my relationships with my family. My mother has been diagnosed with anxiety and she has panic attacks, when I talk with her it sounds like what I am experiencing. I don't want to worry too much about this but if it is affecting my health I know I should do something about it. I guess its just fear of finding out some bad news...So please any advice, suggestions you could give would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

i have been recieving chronic pain managment through a methadone program. i recently came on hard times and am unable to work for at least another 4 weeks. i really cant afford paying the daily fee. i am thinking that mabey i can make it on only going every other day instead of every day. especially if i went in late one day then early the second day. then vice versa. that would put it at around 30 something hours apart

Should I tell my mom the real reason why I am doing so bad at school?

I am doing bad at school because this stupid boy. I liked him for a year. I know he's too old for me and I know I'm too young for that type of "dating-relationship stuff" (I'm 14, freshman in highschool). Though I like someone new now, I can't get over this boy 100%. I don't even know why I still like him; he's cruel to me, he's 18 and he goes to other freshman girls, and he's disgusting. I cry like everyday for no reason. Is this depression? Should I tell my mother? I am just frightened now.

2007-01-21 02:37:28 · 23 answers · asked by Kate 1

I am 16 (turning 17) and I am really willing to quit smoking. I started 6 months back and since i have smoked more than atleast a 300 cigarettes I think life will be more happier when i quit smoking.

There are a few problems that i have when i tried quitting smoking.

When i think i shouldnt smoke.. something in me tells that I am in need of tht smoke and it drags me towards take a couple of ciggies.
I am still trying very hard and whenever i see a girl smoking or any movie featuring a girl smoking.. i turn my mind towards smoking. I dont know what my problem is.. but i am still trying very hard.

The problem with me is.. i try till the last moment not to smoke but at the end of the day like.. at 9.00PM or something my mind totally turns towards ciggies and i smoke a couple of them.

I am unable to divert my mind from smoking and i am in need of some serious help and advice. How will i be able to divert my mind totally from smoking and even if a have such feeling how avoid?
