I heard that when your sleeping and you dream of say yourself falling off a cliff or falling out of a jet then u wake up suddenly, that that is your body sending adrenaline to your heart to get your heart rate higher, because its gone to slow. anybody know anything about this?

if you have depression and dont want to move to go to the bathroom, move to eat, talk to a friend over the phone, watch tv, or even turning a light on or the radio, how do you motivate yourself to actually do something?!

i have so much **** to be done. and yet i cant even get up and go to the bathroom majority of the time, when i have homework, house chores, laundry, showering, cleaning my room, calling my friends back, ect.

but yet i have NO energy and sleep like all day 15+ hours, not even kidding.

what can i do without medication, my guardian is against antidepressants therefore im going on BuSpar (antianxiety) in a couple of weeks. but i need to do something that will help me now.

My mother has bipolar, she tried to kill me as a child (leaving me with a tracheostomy for 11 years), now she latches onto much older men and uses them for their money, then after she leaves them claims all sorts of bad untrue things about them (like she did to my father).
All my life everyone I've asked says that "It's not her fault" or "She can't control it, it's the illness". I believe this is not true.
I have seen my mother control her illness in front of someone she wanted to impress or needed to be sane in front of. I know she can control her illness.
Please answer if you've had similar experiences, I'm sick of everyone telling me that these people can't be asked to atone for their actions.
Please don't make a negative comment unless you have a good theory or point with it. Thank you.

I believe that there is nothing more important then helping people.I'm a good listener, i never tell someones' secrets.I always try to support, listen, help or just be there for everybody. i think that that's the most important thing in my life- to help others.
But lately lots of my good friends or just people i know get into trouble, and that's not where i can help in anyway.
I feel that that's my fault that this happens to people. I cry all the time when something bad happens to people i know. psychologist didn't help.

What do I have to do?
How can i help them?

Just wondered how successful they are in helping you sleep and if the listed side-effects are cause for concern. I am a little hesitant to take them (insomnia and depression).

When people talk to me my mind wanders off even when i try really hard to pay attention, i have to try really hard & in my mind keep telling myself to pay attention cuz i could be listening & after theyre done i wont know wat theyre saying so i just have to play it off like i did. Im also & always have been disorganized & forgetful. My relatives think of me as the one thats just in her own world & dazed off. It annoys me but i cant help it & they think im lazy bc of my messiness & not wanting to do chores when i was younger but its not bc im lazy, cant be lazy..i work & go to school full time, i used to even have two jobs. When im in class i cant pay attention bc when i try to pay attention ill just totally not be listening. I go to a UC & i get good grades, but only bc im more of a visual learner but while reading i have to keep going back bc i could read a page & not be paying attention to what im reading? i also get distracted very easily.could this be what caused my depression?

many people talk about love how its such a beautiful thing.. in my opinion love sucks. it is the most dangerous emotion ever. it makes you depress, you can eat, you can't sleep, it makes you krazy.. love even kills. love is a drug i no longer want to prescribe.. what do yall think of love? or do you agree?

You know when you're in a conversation and you forget a word for something? Usually, it's a word you don't use that often. Well lately, I haven't been able to remember the easiest of words in conversations. It's been happening a lot, and I'm kind of worried.
Do you think this is happening because I've been overly stressed and full of anxiety lately?

Take the recent case of Anna McHugh, who visited her GP after a failed intensive cycle of IVF treatment. She admitted that she was a little depressed and needed some help.

Four hours later she found herself admitted to St Pancras Hospital. Then, having admitted to the attending doctor that she had contemplated suicide, she was sectioned under Section 5.2 of the Mental Health Act and detained in a lock-down ward. When her husband tried to rescue her, she was held in a headlock while a doctor discussed her case with him...


Isn't this just so outrageous!? Why do we let such bastards rule over us?

My mom likes to criticize my life and thinks that most of the things I do is not good enough. I'm in college and I'm almost done with my two year degree. I graduated high school a while back but haven't had any luck with a stable job as of now. How can I change her? Or at least how can I get her to stop criticizing me and just be happy with who I am?
