Mental Health - February 2007

Everything my shrink tells me is crap. None of it makes any sense. I asked her what manic depression is. She said, "You mean maniac depression?" I swear she's the dumbest lady on the planet. She thinks a nervous breakdown involves a car. She thinks bi-polar is a bear that likes both genders. Once she diagnosed a strep throat patient of having a depressed tongue. I'd bet her a hundred pounds she doesn't know what a compulsive gambler is. The lady has no clue. All she can do is accuse me of some stupid mental disorder that I don't even have

So do I sound mad to you ?????

Okay,I'm 21 years old.My sister's 30 & my brother's 28.Over the past 10 years my parents have been dealing with every thing you can think of with my brother & sister because they act irresponsibly.My brother's been in prison for about 2 years now.He's set to get out in a year,so my mom's worrying about trying to help him.She's been worrying really bad about my sister because of how she lives & treats her 3 kids.Yesterday my sister tried to overdose on pills & she's now been committed to a mental hospital by a physician.My sister's 3 children (ages 7,3, & 2 months) were just left at the house by themselves through this whole ordeal.A sheriff took my sister to the mental hospital which is about 2 hours away & just neglected to find anywhere for my nieces & nephew to go.Anyway,my mom has 2 of the children for an unknown amount of time.She seems really stressed,like she's about to have a breakdown.I work over 45 hours a week so I can't keep the kids all the time.How else could I help her?

I dont know why I hate my self very much. Whatever I do I never feel proud of it or satisfy with the results. I hate how I look, although people say that I'm cute, funny, bla..bla.bla..! The thing is I dont think I'm not as good as they say.

Everytime I lok at the mirror I hate what I see. If I did something I never think "It's good!". What's wrong with me?

My hubby close to this Russian model, which apprently she's one of his studens. He said that there's nothing beetween them, but I keep telling my self that he's cheating on me. I'm ugly that's why he's cheating on me with the Russian girl.

My marriage is in the bottom of the rock and part of it because of me. My negativity (spelling???). It's difficult for me to let go the past as well makes it even worse.

Oh, I'm so confused, sad, desperate. I just want to be happy and normal. Please help me...

My roommate has cut herself in the past and It seems like she has stopped receintly. Today I came back from class and I noticed that she is cutting again. She is crying while talking to her boyfriend right now and she has so many ups and downs all the time. She really seems like she is two different people. I am pretty good friends with her, and I have confronted her about the cutting, but I don't really know how to act in this situation. She never tells me her problems and she tries to act like everything is ok. I don't know if I should talk to her or leave her alone because she doesn't really act like she wants advice or anyone to help her. I am really worried for her, but I have never dealt with this before so I don't know what would be the best for me to do. What do you think I should do in this situation. I really want to help her, but I don't want to do something wrong.
Thanks.

If you have been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, and also have great difficulty sleeping ... do you think the meds cause more damage to your body, or do you think by not taking the meds to reduce anxiety and help your body sleep, that the stress would cause more harm to the body in the long run?

Does it make more sense to get a good night's sleep and feel healthy, rather than irritable and unable to concentrate?

Aside from the dangers of addiction to meds of course, what do you think is more healthy? With or without meds?

I just started on this med last night. I woke up around midnight and my vision seemed blurry and when I turned my head it looked like one of the lights blinking in our house was a strobe light. It really scared me a lot. This morning I got up and have felt very shaky. It was tough getting down the stairs because my legs were so shaky. It's scaring me. :( Please help.

We are both 60, both like a drink, I work 33 hrs a week but he hasn't, for two years. I come home each day and he has done nothing except watch T.V or read newspapers. We got a rescue dog a year ago and he won't even take her out for a walk. Because he has no motivation, I seem to have lost mine as well.

I was really sick and tired of my present life now. I have just broken off my best friendship that I had and now I just feel bad about it but I was the one who started the argument and now I just get frustrated when I see that friend of mine. Just what should I do?? Besides I realised that I get very tired of my studies these days and I seem to be getting worried of alot of things around me.. I am just very frustrated now and I kept having the thoughts of attempting suicide. I also know that you guys out there will be saying that its stupid or selfish and ask me to tell this to someone but I really have no one to talk to now... Can anyone please tell me what I should do now??? I am really tired of my life now...

I was told that the British Psychiatric establishment classified the Homosexuality as 'mental disorder' but it has been removed from the list of mental sickness because of the pressure from the lobby.

If homosexuality is not a type of mental disoder, is there any proof?
and if it is, what are the methods available to cure it?
