Mental Health - March 2007

I realized my shyness is hurting me in the long run. I talked to this social guy and he said he knew and chilled with the people in his suite and he had no trouble getting teacher recommendations because all his teachers knew him. I don't know the people I live with, I don't have any teachers that know me and can give me recommendations, I can't get any jobs or internships because of that, I don't know any girls and I have like only 5 good friends, so I can't get a girlfriend. I basically realized that I have to be more social because not being social is hurting me.

I worry excessively and have been having panic attacks. No one can calm me down, even my boyfriend who I love more than anything. I get scared and worry so much that it is almost like I stopped living. I want to live my life and not waste it. I need some advice. I try not to worry and everything but it just doesn't work. Can anyone help me? I need to know what I can do to relax too. Please help

I have always been an above average person all my life in all spheres of life...... in short a mediocre person. am currently going through a crisis of confidence. i just hate the mediocre tag... the 'good but not good enough to excel' thing that my mind keeps throwing in my face.

have no idea where i am going in life professionally though i have a decent respectable job and respectable income. Nothings happening on the romance front too. life just to be like a runaway train..... going but no one knows where.

i want to work for an international organisation like the World Bank / IFC but don't know whether am good enough. Sometimes just wish life had an escape button like one of those computer games where u can get out of any situation and restart the game.

Sorry to mop around like this but need to let out some of the pent up negative energy.

i have a friend and we've been friend for quite some time. she has a serious problem that might lead to suicide. Her name is alisha and she has a serious depression problem. everytime i ask her about she'll always say that it nothing really. she believe in being sad or angry for no apparent reason, because she has no reason. and to top it off she also says that she don't know who she is. to find out who she is she'll have to hurt herself to get answers. by destroying her bad side the one she dislikes, she become her self again. i've talk to her about this and it seem so weird. i've even told her to get help. she did get help, but she still going through the same process. i don't think she tried to help herself. Alisha even hates being happy, she'll have to constantly put on a smile every one could leave her alone, but she's still hurting in the inside. she does wants some help, but keeps turning it down because another part of her wants to keep hurting herself.

My 40 yr old cousin does strange things and talks weird too. All of us (her relatives) knew that she has phsycology problem... but she never admit it. She thought she is normal and people don`t understand her. What should we do? She doesnt want to meet anybody let alone doctor or phsycitrist. She always lock herself up in her room. Nobody could see her except me. I am the only one who bring for her food and wash her clothes. I want her to be normal again. but how?

Is it possible to call a phsycitrist at home..? How if she didnt want to open the door. ..Can doctor do anything to help in this situation?

Thanks.

Does anyone have this as bab as I do ??

Real bad

Stress real bad. It's going to sound silly but when I wear a skirt or dress I'm not stress at all. Maybe it's just getting out of my male stress life and going somewhere else...
