I was really skeptical about this, still am, and it is a really odd observation, however as my Mum sees kids with ADHD on a daily basis, I felt it was worth giving it some thought, and seeing if others noticed this as well?

Also while I am asking, what sorts of things do you notice in people with ADHD that could explain why they can appear or give the sense of being awkward?

# I feel miserable and sad.
# I feel exhausted a lot of the time with no energy .
# I feel as if even the smallest tasks are sometimes impossible.
# I feel very anxious sometimes.
# I don't want to see people or are scared to be left alone. Social activity may feel hard or impossible.
# I find it difficult to think clearly.
# I feel like a failure and/or feel guilty a lot of the time.
# I feel a burden to others.
# I sometimes feel that life isn't worth living.
# I can see no future. There is a loss of hope. I feel all I've ever done is make mistakes and that's all that I ever will do.
# I feel irritable or angry more than usual.
# I feel I have no confidence.
# I spend a lot of time thinking about what has gone wrong, what will go wrong or what is wrong about Irself as a person. I may also feel guilty sometimes about being critical of others (or even thinking critically about them).
# I feel that life is unfair.
# I have difficulty sleeping or wake up very early in the morning and can't sleep again. I seem to dream all night long and sometimes have disturbing dreams.
# I feel that life has/is 'passing I by.'
# I may have physical aches and pains which appear to have no physical cause, such as back pain.
# feel like to enjoy sex to release the depression.

So what it is , is it depression , should I have to take meds , should I go on meds , or is there any other way out.

I went to the mental health center nearby a couple of times for my depression, but all they did was ask me things and write down the answers. I need solutions, and that's not what they gave me. I was just wondering if there are any good, free counselors online that I might talk to. Thanks.

Honestly, I have been having this prblem for many years now. But it has grown to its peak in last almost one year. I have my mind running thinking getting worried about anything. I have just turned 25. During day i do find my mind racing and in kind of daze. This daze comes as i have not slept peacefully and sound.I have noticed as it happnens daily with me. No matter if have slept for 8-9 Hrs. I get up so tired and depressed. My mind keeps racing dreaming whole night thinking about something that might take place the in future or might have taken place in past or may be the last day. This has become really a pain for me as I get up tired and i am kind of sleepy whole day and desires to take nap but when try to do that to energize myself, I feel the same thing again and find my mind racing. I have seen people sleeping for only 5-6 Hrs and they are fresh and motivated like anything on work. But I wake up in daze, showers & go for work and people ask havent i slept last night.

This isn't like me, since usually I'm happy and easygoing, but for the last couple of days I've been very sad and I'm not sure why. It's not PMS and I don't believe I have depression. I just feel like something is seriously wrong - a nagging feeling - and I can't figure it out. My relationship with my boyfriend is fine, but I've been looking for things that are wrong. Does anyone have any ideas for how to figure out what's wrong when there's no obvious answer? I wish I could snap out of it because I know I'm no fun to be around when I'm like this, and I can't really talk to anyone about it because I don't know what to say. Thank you!

Pharmaceutical fraud stunt like the hundreds of others? I dont see how "having a hard time paying attention in a mundane non visually stimulating experience" means you need to be on speed the rest of your life.
Please, someone, explain this chaos.
Thanks.

It is like the love I give out gets converted to hatred and comes back to me threefold in that form. I never react badly to the difficult behavious I am presented with, and I always forgive. My current life experiences are reinforcing my horrible childhood experiences. I have tried hypnotherapy, psychotherapy and CBT, and none have shifted this problem. Is there anyting I am missing?

Last night as my BF and were making love, I told him to slow down a little bit (cause he was really going harsh on me). Then he started shouting at me, saying that I was talking too much and nonsense. He told me that I've been spoiling his concentration and ruining his erection. Then got really got mad and he threw me backwards and tried to do me with anger. I could say nothing, not even raise my voice, I was just paralysed and afraid. And it was hurting too much. Although he saw that I didn't want it, he continued. But I guess the feeling that he is abusing me, didn't let him come. He got more angry, as I got more afraid. He wanted me to have pleasure, so that he could come. But pleasure is not something forced! He started really hurting me, as he saw I was not pleasing. I even tried to seem like I was having a little bit pleasure, I was hoping that maybe he eventually let me go. This thing went on like half an hour. Then I said that I have go to the bathroom, and released myself.

I want to reduce my prozac from 20 to 10 mg. My doctor was suggesting to take the 20 mg capsule every other day but I would prefer to take 10 mg every day.

I can break the capsule and take half... but the powder tastes really disgusting. Is it ok doing it this way? I understand the capsule is for "slow release" but is it also there to protect organs?

My 8 soon to be 9 year old daughter has always had strange behavior problems. She is quiet and shy in school. But is very angry and moody at home. She can change from being happy and chatty to be screaming and raging in a heartbeat. When she was a newborn we could not put her in a vehicle, she screamed and cried bloody murder until she was over a year old. She has never slept through the night and cannot sleep alone. She used to panic if a shirt was too tight going over her head, that has gotten better but the fear is still there if the shirt lingers over her face for too long. These are just a few of the things that have happened and continue happening as she gets older. Her father has been diagnosed with bipolar and has a history of it in his family. I know it is hereditary and I just would like an opinion of wether or not I should bring these problems up with her doctor or if I'm just being paranoid.?

Can depression recur on a seasonal basis? I've heard of winter depression, but what about spring depression? I've had depression 2 years ago due to stress, but it wasnt treated. Last year and this year I've been feeling ultimately depressed at the same time of the year, which is spring. So is my depression recurring at a scheduled interval? Or is it just a coincidence? Thanks =)

For past 5 years, Depakote had been controlling my migraines, but I did not like the side effects (low white blood cell count, constipation, a beard-like hair growing out of my chin), so I had reduced my dosage down to such a low level that it really wasn't controlling my headaches any more, so when I moved to a new state, I asked my new doctor if I could try Topamax instead. I was taking only 150 mg of Depakote/day for the past year (which is probably why I was getting headaches). I've been taking 100 mg/day Topamax for 3 months now and I'm very agitated. Everything is annoying to me. I love that I don't get migraines any more (and I love how productive, and awake I am... and that I've lost 5 lbs that I didn't even need to lose), but I can't stand my agitation. I'm dying for just a tiny dose of Zoloft or something like that. Can I take a SSRI with Topamax?

I keep a very organized life but I'm so scatter brained. When I'm studying, I worry about not having enough free time. When I'm in my free time, I worry about not studying enough. When I'm with my friends, I worry about neglecting everything with myself. I worry about everything at all the wrong times! I can NEVER calm down.

My sister and other people think I am but I don't think so.
I get angry at times, and I start shaking. Sometimes I do things that I don't even remember later on when I get mad. I get these feelings like I'm worthless, and sometimes I can't sleep. Also, sometimes I start crying, and I have no idea why.
What do you think???

is my way right just because I say it is? So if the answer to that is no or yes, does it make psychiatry any more right when they are just the same human beings that I am when they give the world their oppinions based on false and half completed research?

So my father died when I was six. I didn't understand what death was. I knew you could die but always thought it had to be by like a gun or something. I never knew it was because of sickness etc. So sometime around the sixth grade I really came to terms with mortality and realized I would too die. I remember coming home from school and sitting in a corner and only seeing darkness.....a finish....NOTHING......I still get that way even today and I'm almost 30. I think maybe I just need to have a baby and that will make me stop thinking about it. But lately, living away from family half a world away I find myself depressed almost thinking about it all the time. I look at something beautiful like an orchid and think about death...my death....never seeing my family again...being separated from my husband....wandering in a dark sky with no end....infinite darkness forever and ever and ever and thats where I start to cry and some times hyperventilate sort of. I can't shake the thoughts.wat2do

i modelled, showing off alot of my bod.. never nude, but i would say its a bit racy. it didnt turn out as i had thought, i was easily exploited.. anyways these images were used mainly on the web.. these images are no longer allowed to be used so they have been taken down.. but i am nervous that people may find out about this and disown me. i feel like a whore, even tho i never did anything dirty. i seem like a whore, the way i was protrayed. i am always scared that this will come out either with someone finding a pic, or me bumping into someone who knows.. i dont know how to handle the situation.
