Mental Health - February 2007

I seem to be on some sort of cycle, but things get me in s state far too easily from my view, think its down to stuff thats happened to me. Been on antidepressants varous times, but docs just prescribe drugs, never told them anything except circumstances. But I'm older now, thinking the roots of why are deeper, but scared to pursue cos I know the can of worms could consume me. Plus, think also I am just being weak and pathetic. Confident when happy, but a puddle of a wreck when the grey clouds hang over. Feel I should be stronger.

My friend that i have known for years just told me he has a fear of driving. He is 21 now and he never has drove a car. He wants advice from me, and he wants to know what i think. I mean it doesnt matter to me because it is not a big deal to me but i thought it could hurt in the long run. I mean he needs it so he wont have to depend on other people right. I need advice so i know what to tell him. Please help.

Im 18 & have 2 months left in high school but starting to think i never really lived it enough. I was well liked & things looked good all the way thru 8th grade, but then once a fresh everyone kinda was thrown into the mix, & i distanced myself from a lot of people (mainly girls) who went for upperclass guys particularly a girl i liked who didnt like me & i held grudges on her & some of her friends.) I still played soccer, basketball, & baseball & had many friends/happy. Soph yr i lost a lot more self conf cause got sick of basketball after being cut, then the LAST ONE cut from baseball. I became more stubborn, didnt talk in class, & decided to forget sports & many people & focused on things like nature & finding meaning. That made me get cut from soccer jr yr, but not unhappy cause i it was hard to make, & ended up having a good yr, w/ more confidence/social/talkng & things looked up again. However, i practiced all summer & couldnt play soccer this yr cause of inj & (more below)

three years ago i started suffering what people call panic attacks, but after reading this website and others they dont sound like anyone elses, what happens is i get this flushing sensation through my face that is so so frightening that is scream, i do not have a racing heart or trouble breathing, the other thing that happens is that when i am asleep all of a sudden i wake up and i am screaming it is not the screaming that wakes me up it is a jolt in my head it feels like my whole brain has dropped about three inches it also feels like if i was to look in a mirror half of my face would be missing like it has just been taken off and this is the pain that it feels like,

I was going to commit suicide when I was 16. Everyone told me that I was so young and just wait, life would get better. So, I set some goals for myself and tried to make the best out of my life. I went to college, got a degree, got a professional job. But, now my life is full of work, bills, obligations. Nothing has happened in my life that has really been worth living for. Life has just become more difficult to deal with. I wonder why I didn't just kill myself off when I was 16. I met a man 4 years ago who I loved completely. I thought, "This is why I was put on this earth. I'm here to love him." So, I did. I loved him with my whole heart. Six months ago, he broke my heart. And again I'm at that point where I'm questioning what's so important to live for? What's the point of it all?

I am so depressed right now. I have a lot of work I need to be doing, but I can't keep my mind on it. I'm thinking about someone, and he is too busy to notice me. What should I do to at least distract myself from the heartache?
