I'm 15, cut and injure myself (mainly cutting), and often have suicidal thoughts and tendencies. I also have a lot of anger in me, and fight with my dad a lot. And when I say fights, I mean like arguments over the stupidest of things. There is no emotional abuse (a form of child abuse) because the fights are kind of split by who starts them.

For a little while now, I've been wanting to get better, but because I'm not in driver's ed yet and don't have a car, I can't really get any counseling (though I would probably have a hard time talking to someone else about this stuff face to face), or get any medication for it. Also, I'm not sure how I could even get any of that since a bill would probably be sent to my home or be put on my dad's account or bill or whatever at the doctors.

Is there anything I can do to help myself without my dad knowing?

The reason I don't want my dad to find out is because (as anyone who has gone through this could tell you), it's really hard to tell someone (like family) about stuff like this. That, and also because of his reaction. As I have said, we don't really have good communication because he doesn't really understand anything.

I listen to my ipod at work and now our boss has banned ipods/mp3s from being used. i can see his point of view from health & safety i.e might not hear fire alarm. But my ipod helps me cope when i feel down and depressed,helps me carry on when what i really want to do is hide. should i write a letter to my boss explaining why i need to use an ipod. i want to let my boss know how his decision affects me and may be others who feel the same at work...should i tell him?

I can never remember anything positive that happened in my life (like how I met my friend of four months) but I can remember when something not-so-good (when a bunch of kids jumped out from behind a wall to scare me 6 years ago [as you can see, this is nothing tragic that I should be remembering]).
Is something wrong with me?

Lately my friend has been getting really forgetful and emotional and on top of that she is starting to get frustrated easily. Could this be the symtoms of some kind of illness or diease??

So I've got a research paper to do and my thesis is "Prescribing children medication designed to control ADD/ADHD when they only exibit few symptoms is child abuse." The paper will focus on how some children are on ADD/ADHD mediciation only because their parents/teachers felt they were to hard to handle and want them medicated and more easily control. What's your opinion on the subject?

So I've been doing the therapy/meds thing for awhile though it helped,it's still there.People are expecting more of me because I'm not as bad as I was before but I'm not ready for the things they think I should do.I'm in the process of searching for a new therapist/psychiatrist but the problem is I don't have real issues.I've never been abused,raped,molested,experienced something tragic,etc.I should be able to get out there & do what normal people do - work,school,be an adult,but I can't.I don't see how therapists can help me any more than they've done.I'm not depressed enough or suffering enough to be helped.In my search for a new therapist,I unknowingly went to a place that was in-patient treatment only & after answering a few questions,was told it wasn't the place for me.I need outpatient.I feel like I'm just lazy & was told by the doctor at the facility in a way I am.It's in my head to do something drastic,something to make people understand.What can I do when I'm not sick enough?

Is it that parents are too busy to take care of their children so they let medicine do it for them? Give them medicine and stick them in front of a TV?

Even now and again my mind starts racing with worry and I can't stop. While I have medicine for panic attacks I don't want to go on a daily medication like Paxil (been there done that) I'm looking for things like walking or deep breathing- which I find to just not work real well. I spend a lot of time just so worried that it truly affects my relationships.

I take meds to help and see a doctor and counselor. I have a lot of issues on my plate. I've made some progress, but have a long way to go. Iam restricted to one 15 minute session with the shrink
(by Medicare rules) and 45 minutes with the counselor every week if Iwant. We discussed the stressers in my life and are working to reduce them. I guess I could use all the rest of the space here to
tell you what else is going on but I think this is enough to go on.

I don't want to disrespect anyone's beliefs, but I have been treated for depression and anxiety for years and I definitely feel better with medication than I did without it. I have also worked in the mental heatlh field for 20 years--and I've seen a lot of people with who have hallucinations and delusions about being God or seeing Elvis and all kinds of weird stuff. How do you explain that?

I need to talk to my counselor about self harm (cutting)

I just don't know how to go about it.

I brought it up once a few months ago but was very embarassed and changed the sujbect. She hasn't mentioned it since, so i guess its down to me.

I just don't know how to say it.

I never cry in my counseling sessions - why?

The things i am talking about are not nice and yet i remain unemotional. My counselor must think i am very strange. Has anyone else experienced this?
