How should someone go about telling their family that they are a cutter (self abuser) without making them fear further for the individual's life (suicide attempts in the past, currently diagnosed as bipolar, manic depressed, and looking into the diagnosis of having a borderline personality disorder)

I got raped. I cant get over it. Two weeks ago I tried hurting myself once again. How many years does it take to get over something like that. Is been 5 years. I havent really given people a chance. I isolate myself. Is there any free numbers to call a hotline. I am going crazy.

My psych doc gave me new meds and i am wondering if anyone has any experience with them.
1. Seroquel 300mg/day (for bipolar disorder)
2. Emsam patch 6mg/24hr (for depression and GAD)
3. Clonazapam 0.5mg/as needed (for GAD)
4. Librax TID (for IBS)

He is using this in combination with hour long sessions of intense psychotherapy, I have bipolar, manic depression, ptsd, and general anxiety disorder.. I really like this doc.. he seems like he can really help me.. and get me off the meds fast!....

I remember as a child i would never want to hang around kid's or babies. I had three, but they are all grown. Even when they were little i couldn't wait for them to grow up. I don't even want to baby sit their kids . Am i crazy? I took great care of my three when they were kid's.. But I don't want to keep one of their kid's overnight. I can't be around them for long without feeling like i'm in jail.

It seems to be my lifeline..without it I plummet to the depths of hell. How can I get off of meds altogether? I am supposedly bi-polar but i've heard of people correcting this problem through cognitive therapy thereby creating new neural networks.

People on this site have been so kind to me. I try to help others with their depression and anxiety but have been unsuccessful at helping myself. It helps me so much to know that someone out there heres me and might understand what it feels like to be completely alone. I'm looking for encouraging words to handle my severe depression. I would appreciate any words of wisdom to get me through another night alone here. I have thoughts of suicide, but would never make a plan to do it, so no worries there. I just wish I knew how to stop feeling such pain inside. I know that I need professional help but cannot afford a doctor and the state of Tennessee offers me nothing in the way of free support. I have no money and no on that I know can help me. I would love information on a website that offers volunteer therapy from a professional psychologist, but I know that that is unrealistic. Please help with any kind words you can take the time to spare. I would appreciate it so much.

My boyfriend is the most important thing in my life. I am closer with him than I am with my family. That is because my family is SO incredibly furious with my relationship with him (they refuse to budge with their views) that I can't tell them anything anymore. Thus, my mother gets upset with me for lying (as to where i am, who i'm out with, etc.) and thinks that my boyfriend is "just playing games with you" and "if he really did care about you, he wouldn't let you lie."
I've been crying almost every day for the past God knows how many months now. I'm not financially capable to move out of my house or to support myself (or to see a therapist about my problem), but I am old enough to make my own decisions (i.e. I'm not a child).
I love my boyfriend so much that the reason why I cry all the time is that I'm afraid I am going to lose him. I am so blessed to have him that I'm scared that my family will take him away from me. I have no idea what to do anymore. Help!

Should do what? I don't think anything short of clinical depression, personal injury or irrevocable loss could cause him to come looking for me. Not when he's dated the girls who surpass me 5 times in every arena of life.

I have a friend who has no religion and no ambitions for the fututre. This friend is also at the point where they aren't really concerned witht he pain that it would cause others were they to go through with it.
For me my faith and my ambitions and my loved ones are what keep me going when I'm down. What do you tell someone who doesn't have any of these things?

I stuggle with anxiety. I worry about stuff all the time that's really stupid to even think about. It's really bad when I have to meet new people or walk in front of a crowd. I have no reason to be insecure, but I am. How did you get past this? I hear xanax works, but I know benzos are addictive. Is there any way without medication. Self-help books don't work for me. This really holds me back from doing the stuff I want to accomplish. Personal experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.
