I know I need counseling and all that and I have began going to see a professional counselor but, I don't feel like it's going to help I know that I need something or someone to help me and I am willing to accept it but I don't think that anyone can help me. I have been constantly thinking of suicide lately just so I can end the pain that I am constantly in, but, in actuality, I really don't think I want to die I just feel as if so many things have gone wrong and I've made so many mistakes that things cannot be fixed. I already know how I would do it but, I really don't want to resort to that but I just don't feel like anything can help me, I am being totally serious. I've tried calling those crisis lines and suicide lines and talking to people but none of that helps. I just want everything to stop.

I know someone who i really care alot cuz we had been friends since a long time ago already. That person admited me that smokes marihuana, but not all the time [like in a month, only 2-3 times]. Also, my friend explained me that it smokes it when feels super stressed about things. When i asked what kind of things to feel stress about, that person answered me things that i wouldn't consider as important or at least to get crazy about. I would like to really help this person before it goes any further...

How can i help on this???
How things can get in case that person don't get any treatment any time soon???

I made a lot of mistakes between the ages of 20 and 24. I did Ecstasy, smoked a lot marijuana, and drank. I also slept with some prostitutes. I am a changed man. When I was 24, I made a decision not to screw up my life like my parents did. I now have a wonderful woman in my life who I love dearly. She has a 5 year old daughter who I love as well. I have not told her about my past with drugs and (even worse) the prostitutes. I have been checked for all STD's. In fact, before I kissed her, I made damn sure that I was free of all STD's. There is no way I can tell her. She would leave me. We have been together for nine months, and we respect and love one another. We have been in only one argument and we talked it out rationally. I know this is the woman that I want to spend the rest of my life with, but I feel like damaged goods. She has a great past. She has always been a good person. So, please give me some advice, ANYONE. Thank you so much.

My friend who lives in another city emailed me yesterday to say that she is getting treated for her depression. I know that she has been going through a rough time - with health problems, relationship issues, stress, etc - but didn't realize that it has gotten so bad. I want to help her, but I don't really know how. Most online resources talk about inviting your friend to do something or helping her with day-to-day chores. But because we live in totally different cities, it's impossible for me to do those things. Does anyone have suggestions on what I can do to help her?

Thanks!

I have a good friend that has been feeling extremes lately. Everything is extreme with her. Every emotion, every thought. She is always extremely happy, sad, or angry and tends to fluctuate through the three of these. She also told me sometimes she cuts herself when she gets sad or angry. A lot of the reasons she feels the way she does is due to a major death in her family. She has abandonment issues and is always afraid I am going to leave her as a friend. I did some research on Borderline Personality Disorder and noticed a lot of these things are symptoms of it. Does anyone have personal experience with someone with Borderline, and is this typical of someone that could have it? Should I advise her to go see someone?

I was involved with a married woman who was having issues with her husband verbally abusing her. She is a co-worker and have been working together for over 4 yrs. She's been married for over 15 years and has been with her husband since college. I too am married and in a abusive marriage with my wife. Eventually we found comfort from each other and ended up having an affair. The feelings we had for each other was mutual and were contimplating of leaving each other's spouses. Until one day she was diagnosed with a mild case of the Bipolar Disorder and everything fell apart. She is now on medication (Lithium) and is in counseling. We still work together and ever since she was diagnosed, she has not been the same. We maintain a professional relationship however I wish it would be more. My question is, was I a victim of her disorder (Hypersexual) and should I move on or should I keep hoping that one day she might come around and have feelings for me again?We currently maintain a friendship

Lately I have been having bad sleep and I couldn't sleep at some times, this never happened to me before but since my grades are low I think its the only thing that makes me think, I read a short article about school grades and sleep and I think I remember the article saying it has a link between the two, is it true?

Last night I was meditating as a way of unwinding before I went to bed. I did what I normally did (focus on breathing, relax limbs etc.) and I was visualizing the place I usually go to relax when all of a sudden my whole body started... pulsing. It was strongest in my right hand and arm but it reached all the way through my body. It was accompanied by a kind of tingling feeling. I've never had this happen before, I'm not sure what was going on. Anyone have any thoughts on the matter?

Why is my nurse practitioner doing this to me? And what do you think of an NP prescribing psych meds? Why do they have me on a mood stabilizer (Lamictal - used for bipolar which I don't have) and a schizophrenia (also do not have this) drug (Invega). Since they put me on those, my condition has worsened - I have terrible stomach problems and can't sleep! I don't understand???
