Does it feel like you are in your own little bubble world? I know for me it is like that. Whenever I see happy people it hurts so much. The deep contrast that I feel from it just scrapes away at me. Sometimes I get so down I have this constant inner dialogue with myself. I can be walking in the mall just relaxing and then the voice comes in saying "Why am I here? What am I living for?". I can have that voice and try to smile but it takes so much out of me. I just want the crap to stop. I want to be free. I dont want to constantly keep thinking of the best way to kill myself so it doesnt hurt. Im trying to get away from all pain because right i feel it acutely. I have a therapist and a psychiatrist and will start going to support groups. When that voice gets strong i lay down in bed and hope i dont get up and do something. What do I do about this? It hurts.

I am afraid of people asking me questions about my life and
stuff. You know? It is embarassing to admit that I had a
mental/nervous breakdown and no longer am a productive citizen.
Silly I know, but it truly is hard to present myself in society and or
social situations because of this. What can I do to help myself? This is surely a pot hole in my road to recovery. Thank you...

I am only 13 years old. This is like my 4th question on this subject. I am not completly sure why I am depressed but I know I am. I know some reasons I am, but I don't know why I am so sad about all of it. I have always strived for perfection. I know perfection is not possible, but I have always been pleased with my work. Everyone thinks of me as perfect and that bothers me though. I am not and I screw up too. That's partly why I am in the situation I am in (but not the whole reason why). My reading teacher realized I was depressed and told me she thought I was about 2 months ago. I told her that wasn't true even though it was. She didn't believe me. (I am a horrible lier.) She sent me to the counsoler's office. I wouldn't talk so she finally let me go. I am a shy person which sucks. I have tried to come out of my shell. I have a little. I would like for my teacher to ask me again so I can tell her the truth. I am scared to just go up to her and tell her.

I heard of the "condition" when it came up with a victim on CSI Vegas. I've got to figure out what causes it. When I looked it up on the internet, it gave me a bunch of weird and I think they were unrelated sites. Can someone diminish the mystery?

Over the last 10 years I have taken at one time or another Zoloft, Celexa, Zyprexa, Paxil, Seroquel, Klonipin, Xanax, Valium, Ativan, Remeron, Trazadone, Wellbutrin, Serzone or Cymbalta. In short like I said all worked to little or no avail. The Zoloft is the only SSRI that gave me the least amount of side effects and after taking it for years it just stopped working. I also suffer from severe back pain so I take Vicodin & Soma for that . Hence b/c of side effects/interactions the ONLY thing I can use to treat my anxiety is xanax (other than weed lol). My mother went to a nutrition specialist & he recommended some women's mega vitamins called Natural Woman & recommended drinking at least one glass of O.J. per day. I know more exercise wouldn't hurt as well. My final ? would be should I listen to these so called Dr's prescribing crap that doesn't work or give the "natural" methods a chance. Every conventional DR is going to recommend some anti depressant I have already taken. Input NE1?

See she cleans the bottom of her expensive sneakers everytime she wears them to keep them clean. She takes extra long in the shower. One time she showered twice. My pack of disposable gloves seems to have been disapearing latey. And she asks a lot of questions about gems and flesh-eating bacteria. Sometimes she scrubs her arm so hard that it bleeds.

she was deppresed because she couldn`t have children. after the treatment she was a totally different person. She became bad tempered, nasty, reclusive, couldn`t trust anybody and much more. Why would such a barbaric (i won`t say treatment) be accepted, i have seen the damage this causes first hand.

I was diagnosed with depression a few years ago. One of the symptoms is a very strong Boredom. I do not enjoy things that I used to enjoy before. Everytime I get involved in an activity that I like, I am "attacked" by this boredom. I am not able to concentrate or read an article because I am bored. Not able to watch movies either. Do you have any advice to overcome this boredom?

Im 18 & sr in hs, i was thinking about trying for baseball, but i don't know if it's worth it. I've had very bad luck with sports (couldn't play soccer this year cause of an injury) & went out for baseball as a soph just to be the last one cut (literally the last since the jv coach couldnt decide & kept me an extra tryout just end up cutting me). Then he said the reason was cause the Vars coach didnt think i would make it, but now that same JV coach is on varsity, & he seemed to at least think i had some talent since he kept me & was the last cut.

However, I didnt play last year or tryout, & theres a lot of politics w/ sports as you're expected to play in private summer leagues (basically the seniors are already picked). However, now i feel guilty i didnt do these since i liked bball & let others politics take over.

Is it worth being cut again just to see what might happen, or keep some dignity from these sports/politics(& not leave hs as the 1 who was cut again)?

okay..so obviously i have depression. i'm taking anti-depressants and i USED TO cut myself. I DONT DO IT ANYMORE. there are scars on my wrists and arms and i am covering them with makeup now to hide my past. I am labeled "emo" or "goth" at school and i dont really care but now that i dont cut anymore i'm tryin to get rid of the emo label. *emo is considered a kid that is obsessed with darkness, writes about death and pain, and wears their hair a certain way and in some cases they cut themselves* the only reason people label me emo is because i cut myself, used to. anyway. how can i convince people that i'm not emo anymore? * and i'm in therapy now and i'm doing very well* oh and i'd appreciate it if you guyz dont lecture me about not cutting myself anymore cuz i dont do it anymore. i've been clean for about 2months now. i'm done. thanks.

Two of them are having bad difficulties and i just cant deal with it. I should also add i constantly feel fat and want to just start a fresh away from everyone and just break away. I have a great family/school life/friends. I dont know why im feeling like this. Im such an ungrateful cow!!! So many people are going thru worse and all i can think about is me. What is going on?
