I often feel like I can I cannot understand what's going on. I do't have any mental disorder or any brain problem. I feel like that only when I think about it and I think about it everytime! I know it is because of my fear of not understanding. Please help me get rid of this fear.

I know, everyone has nightmares. ive always had more then normal all my life but it never really bothered me except the few that were VERY scary. I know it's not a trauma thing or atleast i dont think so & most of my old re-occuring dreams that i had since i was like 4 stopped in the last few yrs. Thing is i used to have a break, sometimes i just wouldnt dream & a few times id just have a nice or diff dream. but for the last few yrs ive had nightmares EVERY NIGHT! Sometimes it's ok & i can go back to sleep others i have to stay up for hours before im okay to go back & even then i just have another nightmare or finish the one i started. I've always had partial Depression i guess but now more then ever they dont make sense. I got with my Husband in 12-05 & im really happy & now im 5 months prego & i couldnt be happier. But yeah there's those nightmares i can figure out why im having them cuz im worried bout something but even tonites made no sense but im still scared. Can anyone help me?

For example, my spending is out of control when I have money. I get easily agitated and irritable at the slightest things. Is there anyway to tell what behaviors are justifiable or just my illness? Since my diagnosis about 2 months ago, I have read some about the disorder and have found a lot of my behaviors are similar to those of other people with bipolar. I am so confused. I am on an anti-convulsant and anti-depressant, but I still have some major mood swings, mostly irritability.

but I'm not sure what the signs were. He has a lot of the common signs of abuse, IE drug use, closed off emotionally, early sexual activity, hermiting ect. But recently i found out that when he was a child his father had sexual charges brought up against him. I'm going to ask him about it but want to know how much i should prepare myself for the answer i dont want to hear. What are signs of sexual abuse?
He has problems with intimacy, claims he had never felt it before me, doesnt like being touched much, feels that almost all affection no matter how innocent is sexual, and said that he's from a very non-affectionate family but when ive been around them they seem about normal.

Anything?
I love him very much and hate to think that this happened to him, but i won't hide from what may be a skeleton in his closet. He is currently 21.

I know we're always trained to tell people that suicide isn't the answer to depression, and to try to do everything we can to prevent depressed people from killing themselves. But in some cases, do you think suicide can actually be the right choice? Do you think that, while most suicidal people just need help, some might actually be right to think they should kill themselves to end their sadness? (This is assuming the person is physically healthy, suicide when one has a debilitating or deadly illness is a different issue.)

I'm very, very afraid of the dark. If I'm in my room during a storm and all of the lights go out, my breathing gets faster, my heart races, I fidget and stumble across my room until I finally reach the lightswitch . Oh, and I'm a 20 year old female.

I've always been extremely paranoid about the dark. I thought my phobia of spiders was bad, but this has escalated into an (embarassingly) horrible problem. I always picture myself walking into some kind of monster or murderer, stepping on something and falling on my face, etc. I've been like this for as long as I can remember.

I have been in a relationship for 3 and a half years, and been living with my girlfriend that just passed on suddenly. I don't have many friends, probably enough for one hand to count. I have been married before for nearly 16 years, and wouldn't have the same amount of depression. I have signed up for berievment counselling and still waiting to. Is there anything else anyone can suggest to me, or even someone just to talk to on my down times. Please help me!!! Suggestions?

My husband thinks Im depressed, or headed in that direction. I used to be really lively and always laughing. Then I moved, now Im not around my family or friends. Im in an area where its really hard to make friends cause EVERYONE is related or went to school together. I know I need to get out more, Im aware of this. But Im also just there, I cry at the drop of a hat, I dont find anything funny anymore, all I want to do is watch TV, even when I know I have things to do. I never used to be this way...you couldnt get me to sit still before. And I never slept late, now all i want to do is sleep. And I get grouchy and nervous really quick Im always on edge. I've been here for 8 months now so I should be over being homesick so I just dont know what is going on, Im not me anymore. I dont want to resort to medication, any ideas? Has anyone experienced this before?

I am usually fine, but today all I want to do is scream. And I feel like being blunt to people even when it's not nice. This is not my normal personality.

i used to cut when i was 10. it felt like anger was seeping out of my soul. but i stopped becuase..well i dont remember why, it was to long ago. but im 14 now and i thought i had things under control. but apparently i dont. earlier, about in october, i cut myself a couple times. but now, i cut myself again. i did it three nights in a row. (starting on tuesday). 3 slits across my wrist. i didnt know what came over me. i got really upset, and i though of my razor i keep. i was crying, but then i stopped. it was like walking through water to get to my room. i wasnt thinking. i got the razor and just gave myself a gash. and the same thing happened the next nights.(including tonight). i will admit that i dont have the happiest life in the world, but cutting is bad. it doesnt feel satisfying after all the crying is done. but i just dont know how to stop without therapy or somthing and i dont want to tell any of my friends. im afaid they wont want to be friends anymore.
thankyou
