I have been so stressed out lately. I have little patience when usually i have al ot more than most people I know. I just got out of a 5 & half year relationship. My ex who just turned 31 met his 18 yr. old g/f on the internet & let her move in. We were together at the time & I told her & she didnt care she just kept on persueing him. Everyone tells me how i'm so much better off w/out him, but he makes me feel like I will never get a man better looking than him. He makes me feel fat, & ugly. He calls me fat when his g/f is the same size maybe alittle bigger than me ( she dont realize it). He is w/her cuz supposively she's getting a big inheretence when she is 21 from her grandfather that passed away (she is such a storyteller that its hard to see if shes telling truth) I am very hurt they kiss infront me I sometimes think she does it on purpose. He talks so much crap about her to me. He wont allow me to have male friends over in my house. I dont know what to do anymore. I am loosin it

I'm pretty sure I have this and the biggest thing I'm struggling with is trying to have a normal relationship, but my view on everything is so different from most people, how do I show someone I care about so much that I don't mean to hurt them and if I could change how I am I would?

"You're paranoid, you have problems, you need help," day after day, week after week. Do you think this benefits anybody? I think it is actually harmful and annoying.

I felt this way earlier and it didn't feel like anxiety to me. But it went away. I had nowhere to run, nowhere to go, no time to take a minute to be calm. I felt overwhelmed and I knew it wouldn't matter if anyone knew.

I wonder, if I didn't tell myself to calm down and if I did not pray and calm down, could I have had a heart attack from this?

The official ADHD assessment diagnosis would cost $1200. My insurance (provided by my current university, UCSD) would not cover any of it.

What I'd really like to do is be prescribed with medication. I was told by friends that they were perscribed medication (such as Adderall) just by seeing a psychiatrist, who would then send them home with a test. After they turn in the test and asking a few questions, they walked out the door with a prescription. I like this method better because my insurance would actually cover the therapy sessions.

What would you recommend I do? Would psychiatrists really prescribe me medication so informally and easily like that after a few sessions? Most importantly, how did you get diagnosed with ADHD and prescribed medication?

I can't say no...just in case?
My mom likes to have control of things, but she is a great person. I love her so much and worry all the time about something bad happening to her. As result, I can never say no to her even if I want to because I fear if I do, she will die and I will regret it for the rest of my life. Does anyone else do this?

I am looking for suggestions of facilities in California that can provide treatment and therapy for adhd, depression, anxiety, as well as evaluate chemical dependance. Most importantly I am not looking for a drug rehab center, but a place that focuses on counseling, coaching, and also addresses addiction. Im not looking for suggestions or anyones two cents beyond where I might seek such help. Thank you

It seems odd to me that someone who is serious depressed and suicidal would post a question on Y!A for advice. I suppose it is possible, but think it is more likely to be someone seeking attention and lots of responses. Especially some of the ones with sensational revelations and circumstances. I'm certainly not saying they all are, but was wondering if how many of them you think are faked by attention getters?

A friend of mine is researching how parents that were abused as children can sometimes be abusers to their own children. She doesn't have access to a computer and asked for my help. I need websites that I can go to and print off for her. Does anyone on here know of any??

Also part of her research is to ask different people if they believe it is true that the abuse does carry on to the next generation. I would greatly appreciate if someone can help me to help my friend.
