Mental Health - February 2007

I get nervous around most people that im not familiar with. I hate it but its become normal for me to act this way. I need to stop but i never am able to. I avoid people whenever possiable. I would rather be the person that can be friendly with everyone but i allways feel like people are judging me or i dont measure up.

I am very sensitive. I sit and cry for everything. I can't take if someone criticize me. I get very upset and sad if someone gets angry on me and if someone teases me. I am not able to take any thing lightly. Secondly, I am really confused in taking decisions, I just don't know which choice to make. And thirdly I am really nervous in everything.What am I supposed to do? How can I get out of this? How can I change my character?
PLEASE suggest. I need your help very badly.

I have just quarrelled with one of my very very good friend, she's so hurt because of me but she never told me. I was so sad but she doesn't want to tell me why she's so mad at me. I have shouted and forced her to tell but she still keeps silent. I was so sad so that I feel that I really cannot stand with the condition so I unrealizedly took a stick near me and hit myself (my head) with it. I am ok so far but i just wonder if i should check myself to a doctor?

I've been depressed for several yrs and finally got on meds- and I understand its a trial and error thing with different brands of anti-depressants.
Well at first the one I was put on didn't work but he increased my dosage then I started feeling really good...but now a few months later I'm having some really bad days where I'm depressed again and don't feel as good or great as I did at first.

How do I know if its the medicine, or if its just other factors in my life? I don't want to get off this medicine not knowing if it was actually working or if I was just having high expectations.

I haven't been "normal" since I was a child so I dont know what I'm suppose to feel like.
Its hard to give my doc feedback when I don't even if I feel right or not.

So if you're depressed or have been medicated can you please tell me how you knew your medicine was right for you? And how good did you feel?

All my life, I have been on a emotional roller coaster, yet always hiding it. My friends don't even know how much I hurt inside. I love the phrase "last guys finish last" because that is how I feel. All my life I have always put others before myself. But I have never gotten anything from it. My father died when I was 6, and ever since then my mother has fought to keep our house and to put food on the table. All throughout high school, I had to work, to be able to help out around the house, and to pay for college. I am currently in college right now. I am always stressed out, and always feel like I just can not take it anymore. The only friends I have, don't care. I don't want to turn to my mother, because I don't want to upset her. I feel like I have no one to turn to for help. My question: Why does this always happen to good people? I am not suicidal, I have thought about it before, but could never carry it out! I just wish that I could go "home". Why does it have to be this way?

the other night i was at my boyfriends place and fell asleep early because i was so tired. but there was something wrong with him and he couldn't sleep. he kept thrashing around the room and thinking he needed to do things, like walk down the street to this park. it was really weird and he also wrote down a bunch of strange things. then he'd wake me up and say i looked like something else, like some kind of an animal.

he has a cold, so maybe it was just a fever? but i didn't think just a fever would make you do impulsive things or feel like you had to. i know his mom is bi-polar, so maybe it runs in the family? and it was an episode outbreak? i don't know if that is what happens.

he also smoked pot that night, but a while beforehand. and it has never done that to him before. he does take adderall without a perscription and sometimes sleeping pills. would a combination of those drugs make someone crazy? or is something actually wrong?

while the rest of the collection she carries around with her, does it mean anything?

My 7-year-old neice collects stamps, and I found an ordinary stamp hidden amongst her things. And, I know for a fact that she purposely hid it. She shows off the rest of her collection of stamps. I don't understand why she does this. She's a lovable child, and gets plenty of attention, I think. Is she on the brink of OCD?

For about 7 years now, I have had a lot of trouble getting sleep. I go through phases where I either don't sleep at all, I take 2-3 hours to fall asleep, and sometimes I fall asleep pretty quick. However, no matter how much sleep I get, I am ALWAYS exhausted, all day, every day. This is the biggest problem. I sometimes fall asleep at work when I am on hold, and I have nearly fallen asleep so many times driving home.

I've had many doctors say "it's chronic fatigue." I don't need a label, I need something to help. They always tell me to eat healthy, work out, etc. but I do these things and I have done this nearly all of my life. I had a sleep study done, but they were mostly testing for sleep apnea, which I knew I did not have. The only useful information that came out of the study is that I grind my teeth at night.

I have an appointment with a sleep specialist in a few weeks, but does anyone have any ideas or suggestions? I've tried herbal things, but they never work.

He was studying 10th standard last year(2006). He had an attack of Typhoid in October 2006. He was not able to attend school for around 5 days. After attending school he found that he was way behind his friends in his studies. (He was in the top 5 ranks upto 9th standard). He had a fear of exams and he was afraid to attend Practical exams. Some how we persuaded him to fight it out, but he was not willing to accept the moral support. He was adamant and aggressive in his behaviour where we came to a conclusion that he must have the support of medicines. The medicines were started in Dec'2005 and it was continued till Jan'2007. So far no problem, but still he is not have interest in studies. Now on Feb 1st of 2007 he had a mild attack of Chicken pox. The doctor had recommended us to stop the medicines until he is cured from Chicken pox. So far he is fine without medicines, though he has little tantrums and the teenage behaviour's and aggression. Can we continue without medicines. Suggest

I just receintly went back to work after having a baby. As a result, I'm extremely exhausted. I'm so overly exhausted that I am so worked up about falling asleep that I actually keep myself awake. My baby wakes up several times during the night and then I have to get up at 5:30am to go to work. Everynight I make a point of going to bed early (8-9pm) with the hope of getting caught up on my sleep. I end up lying here until at least midnight unable to fall asleep. The longer I lay here the more upset I get, I end up crying and wanting to pull my hear out. It's like a visous circle. I can't function like this. I'm sooo overly tired and a terrible mom when I'm like this. I'm just desperate to fall asleep and I feel like I can't. Has anyone ever experienced this. How can I break the cycle? I never had any problems falling asleep before I started working again. It's totally psychological I'm sure. I'm seriously going to go insane if don't get a good night sleep. Any suggestions?

I have a very horrible, annoying habit of squinting and wrinkling my nose. I read up on facial tics and I understood them to be involuntary. I try not to do it, but I always end up doing it, and I look silly. Would this be considered involuntary? I just want to know how to stop it. It's embarrasing. Home remedies or herbal remedies have never worked for me. I am on medicine right now for bipolar and OCD, maybe this is the cause. Or, does anyone know of a solution?
