Mental Health - January 2007

I don't mean to sound odd or anything, but is there a place online to take a mental health evaluation?? I know it wouldn't provide any type of medical diagnosis, but I'm just curious some. Thanks ahead of time to anyone who provides a site. : )

If you are undergoing a mental health therapy (for things like depression, shyness, social anxiety and other fairly common issues), would you tell the truth if you were to apply for a Secret Clearance for government contractor job? If you don't tell, will they find out anyway?

Can I expect to be interviewed by a government investigator or a government hired mental health professional during the investigation that will lead to the the decision about my application?

I told the truth, and I do hope that I did the right thing even though I need a job, and when it comes to matter of employment many times you don't have choice unless you are a smooth talking and good people person.

I have this one friend Paula and another friend named Kaelynn. Kaelynn has a bunch of illnesses goin on, even cancer. We have a bunch of mutual friends, and Paula seems to get off on making fun of Kaelynn and her illnesses, and lately I've noticed she makes fun of ALL of her friends behind their backs. And back when I had problems with depression, she would get furious because I was missing school and I wasn't around her all the time and she'd say all kinds of nasty things to me like "you're a lost cause" for example. What the heck is wrong with her? She claims to have been abused by her mother when she was little (sexually) but she tells this to everyone (just for attention and sympathy I assume) and I'm doubting this is true. She seems to enjoy seeing others in pain, and she has a really high opinion of herself.. is there a disorder/diagnoses for what is wrong with her? How would you deal with this behavior?

I was diagnosed about 3 or 4 years ago. It's still driving me crazy and I can't cope with the fact that I'll never be a regular person. Any advice?

What does it mean when you have those dreams where you jump or twitch everytime you close your eyes.

I"m soo depressed No one listens to me, and everyone only puts me down, no matter what i do. I can't take it anymore. I need to talk to someone. Does anyone know of any good suicide help lines that are free, and will NOT show up on phone bills from a cell phone? I can't have my parents or anyone else knowing i called them, then i'd just be questioned about it, and put down more if they knew. I need help. If anyone knows of any good free services or email services i'd appreciate it. Thanks very much.

Before a test, I tend to get nervous, nervous about getting a good grade or if I will even complete the test! Sometimes, this angst causes me to not be able to think straight. In the past, jitterbugs have made me blank on the answer.

What can I do to control this? PLEASE HELP!

Hi, has anyone of you been really self conscious, but like really too much and got better? or do you know anyone like that?My boyfriend has really low confidence, and therefore he makes me feel bad very often, because he feels so bad. he went thru bad childhood and is really self conscious, always thinks people are laughing at him and talking about him, it is just awful. can people like that change?

Ever since I can remember, I've been an insecureish person. When I hear people in a group of 2 or more people start laughing, I get afraid that they are laughing at me. Is this strange? Also, is there a name for this?

I used to feel depressed a lot when I was younger. Things have been pretty good for me here lately. But starting several days ago, I've been feeling really down, like a fog in my brain that won't lift. I may not be the luckiest man alive, but I do have a job that I like (for the most part), my own house (I'm paying on), a family that cares about me (even though I'm the black sheep hehe), etc... Okay so I live alone, but I usually love that. What could be wrong with me? I don't like feeling this way.

She puts up blgos about fake viruses, has more then one page, has harrased some of my friends with messages, And seems to be acting like thips person has a multiple personality. I am worried I don't want anything abd ot ahppen but I think someone needs to know about this. She was also claiming that she was being abused by her son and also some guy who she refers to as "einstein" yahoo people what do you suggest I have a feeling there is more to this then meets the eye???

When I was younger, I used to be so outgoing and friendly. Now as I get older, ( I am 27 right now) I don't even feel like calling anyone besides my mother, husband, and one friend. Everyone else feels almost like a chore. Several times did I almost have to force myself calling someone back. I like it best when I am not bothered. I like to be alone with my pets. It's interesting, but my pets never go on my nerves; with people everything feels like work. I am starting to think that I am very strange. Should I see a psychiatrist?
