If I have dreams, doesn't that mean I'm in a deep sleep so I would be getting "quality" sleep?

I don't normally agree in asking for diagnosis over the internet like this but i need a place to start some research of my own.

My mum flips in and out of moods in seconds, she becomes so enraged that she shouts and drags up anything and everything to hurt people, from the ridiculous eg. 'i caused my grandfather's death', despite the fact that he had a long term illness. to the even more ridiculous ' you need serious mental help, all your friends are crazy too!' -what the? she is extremely bitter and self absorbed. She seems to find it terribly difficult to sympathise or empathise with anyone else's problems, yet when she has a minor problem she expects everyone to drop everything and come to her aide. She also thinks because she is slightly stressed it is an excuse to be a complete nasty ***** to everyone around her. She is obsessed with control and obsessed with money. She thinks everyone is out to rip her off somehow. She can become extremely angry, aggresive and vindictive in

Hi,
I don't know what to do. I am a type one diabetic and have been since I was 13 months old. When having a low blood sugar I would feel week a shaky in the past. Now I get a low and I also have a horrific panic attack. I would compare it to a conciouss seizer. I throw myself around acting like Im drunk or on drugs and really scare anyone who see's it. Not to mention scaring myself. This has just started happening and I don't know why. I feel self conciouss about everything I cant seem to control my actions. Tonight I had a horrible "episode" at work. I started to pull my clothes and I kept throwing myself around and into the floor. I also had a hard time breathing. I don't know if anyone has ever heard of this type of reaction. If so do I need some mental medication? What is going on? Please help. I appreciate it.

I was depressed for years before finally getting the courage to tell my doctor, and even then it was only because my mother made me since my crying spells became daily.

I've been on 100 mg 7 months and the only difference I have noticed is that my crying spells have stopped. I still sometimes feel that life is pointless and even though I don't think about committing suicide, I sometimes feel I wouldn't care if I died.

Also, I'm experiencing occasional nausea, tremors, and insomnia.

What do I do? Does the medication need more time? Sorry to sound whiney but I still feel depressed.

Ok, I was dx ADD, and was put on Concerta, he said that if I didn't like this med we could try Adderall. Well, I don't care for the Concerta. It has a couple of side effects that I don't care for. When I see the doc tomorrow, what should I tell him?? Because I think that Adderall would work better for me. What do you think?

I have been told that I talk in my sleep, and it is very embarassing. I'm afraid of not having control over what I am saying. Is there any way at all to reduce the risk?

Most of the information nowadays are not going in paper anymore. Most of it already put in our computer for easy reference and processing. I have choose to use PC instead of using paper and pen. But I am facing a problem when I use PC. I feel very tired when I face PC for a long period. In my daily life, I face PC from early in the morning until midnight. This is not physical tired but it is mentally tired. Tired until can not think, remember and recall properly.

When I face the monitor screen, my eye won't be tired but my brain is exhausted. It affect my learning process and speed. I feel that I can not effectively think, remember and recall. But I have to work with the PC all the time. PC make my life more easily.

Do you have any suggestion, solution and method to solve the problem I mention above?

How to use PC effectively without make my brain feel very tired?

First of all, do you believe that a person naturally has a postive attitude, or is it dependent on how that person was raised and environment throughout life?

What are ways that someone can change their personality to a more postive one, and while doing it naturally and not feeling like it is forced?

Thanks

I wanted to be successful my whole life, I feel like I failed. I havnt had a girl friend in years and dont know if i will any time soon which also makes me depressed.

I just want to make a decent amount of money and leave it for my mom and go away. What do you think?

My father died last sunday. I have no idea how to deal with everything I'm feeling. He was so young. 51 is just too young to die. He was supposed to see me do so much. He was supposed to see me graduate high school, and walk me down the aisle one day, and now I don't have that chance.

I don't want to deal with my family, they make things worse by getting just as emotional.

It's all so much to take in, and I have no idea how to cope with it all.
