I have a strange fasination with deadly stuff like radiation, poisons, strange diseases, and lethal elements. I won't go near them at all, and I sure as heck wouldn't let anyone else touch them, but I love to learn about them and their structures and their life cycles, it's like an obsession. Am I freaky? I feel like I need tharapy or something...

I had depression a year ago and i know the symptoms. I was on prozac but have been off it for awhile. I'm wondering if it is coming back. I've had a problem at work with getting along with a co-worker. It's to the point where I'm in trouble work wise because I've told alot of people about this. Now i'm tearful alot and this is all i think about. It constantly is on my mind. However at home i'm tearful because i can't get it out of my mind but my family and friends don't know about it. Arround them i hide it. Is ths depression? I'm really worried. I don't want it to come back but i recognize some of the symptoms but i'm only this way because what has happened at work.

My son sleeps a lot in all his subjects resulting to low grades. He is a smart kid but lately, due to his sleepiness, he does not participate and does not study well in class. He sleeps regularly and sleeps at 9PM each night. He is a homebody and prefers to play PS2 and computers during holidays and weekdays. He hates sports, but he tags along every sunday to play 9 holes of golf. He is 14 years old and in High School, has asthma - rarely, and is not under any medication, except for multi-vitamins and vit C (250 mg a day).

Does he need a neurologist or a phsychiatrist, or a psychologist?

I cannot get myself out of bed without at least 10 hours of sleep, usually closer to 12 or 13. My schedule also changes all the time. When I "reset" myself back to getting up in the morning, I just can't stay that way for much more than a week. I am missing out on life because all I do is sleep all day. I feel bad about myself and more depressed. My psychiatrist told me to use trazodone at night, but I already have problems waking up and I think that makes it worse. I just want to be able to wake up after 8 hours of sleep like a normal person. Even if I slept from 4 am to noon every day, I would be happy. When you get up after sleeping 13 hours and it's already dark outside, you just feel awful. Is anyone else going through this? If so, any techniques or meds which worked for you?

I feel like sleeping all the time. Sometimes I'll sleep 15 or 16 hours straight, stay up about 8 hours and go back to sleep. I have to nap constantly too? I feel that I never get enough. What can I do to snap out of it?

I'm desperate. I feel crazed. I know I'd be able to spend at least a little more time on this planet if I had something to read...
But I go to the self-help section in my bookstore, and can find nothing on the subject of suicide (I live in a VERY small town).

If there's anything you've read before that was really good on this subject, and hopefully inspired one to live rather than die...I would very much like to hear what it was. I can special order books if I have to.

I don't care if it was some fiction book you read, or actually nonfiction/self-help.

Please, I've been battling with this recently and the half of me that wants to live is trying very hard here...

The problem is my son is so hyped up by the end of the day that he has a hard time falling asleep. I have tried putting him on a regular schedule but it does not seem to work. Any info you all can provide will be a big help.

I have a very small paying job.. 50 dollars a month or less, because I only work one day a week. Everytime I try find a job no one ever hires me. My girlfriend is now in DCYF custody and they can take her away whenever they feel like it, I am 22 and my girlfriend is 16.. please don't judge me, I love her more than anything in this world and we have been deeply in love for a very long time. My father has said he'll try to help me get visiting days with her, however at my age it does not look very promising, and I do not want to move on, it is not what I want. I thought maybe if I could somehow make money and move out.. I could provide a home for her, but living alone at my age would look impossible, have no money for college.. the only thing keeping me going right now is her.. if I ever consider suicide I just think, well then I could never see her anymore until she passes on too.. What can I do? I don't want a councelor..

i feel so lost right now. There was this girl i liked and i asked here out and she shot me down. I tried 3 other girls i liked and had fun hanging out wih and i got shot down as well. it been really getting to me. Whats the point. it just feels like its always going to turn out the same. On top of that im dealing with my friends leaving me over my depression. I had about 10 friends and now i have only 1 that actually stuck with me. Others dont seem to care and i just feel like some abandoned me. It doesnt feel good. I feel worthless and a burden to everyone. I also fell like everyone i know and everyone at school hates me. I don't even like myself now and i hate how i have become but i feel so helpless. I want to tell people but i feel like they will hate me even more if i tell them the reasons or they might think im stupid for letting depression take me over. I just don't know what to do.I really need help.

SYMPTOMS OF DEPRESSION.
The sypmtoms I have are in brakets.


[ depressed mood or sadness most of the time ] - I try to put on a happy face so people won't make fun of me and call me "emo" or whatever
lack of energy and feeling tired all the time
inability to enjoy things that used to bring pleasure
[ withdrawal from friends and family ] - Ever since my parents divorce, I haven't felt as close to them as I was when I was younger. I never feel like I can compleetly trust anyone I know in real life. Freinds, family, or random kids at school.
[ irritability, anger, or anxiety ]
[ inability to concentrate ] - Usually, in my classes, I'm not thinking about the lesson, I'm thinking about what's already ahppened in my life and what I'm scared is going to happen in my future

(continued)
