What are the symptoms that are present in one and not present in the other?

Please help me because I think I might be depressed. I cut myself even though I know that it is wrong but it still seems to help temporarily but after I've done it I feel guilty and only want to do it again. I've thought about suicide. I can't tell my closest friends or parents because they won't understand and my parents will treat me differently possibly even be frowned upon. I feel the only people I can talk to are two male teachers at my school. But I don't want to put the weight of my problems on them. Even if I do they will tell my parents. There are more details to this story and I know its not as bad as some peoples problems but I can't help feeling this way. I've put my parents through enough already and i don't wish to do that again. I've already tried talking to a school guidance couselor and talking to her didn't really help. I feel more comfortable talking to males i know than females that i do or dont. What should I do? Should I talk to them? Answers are appreciated. Tnx!

I have been taking effexor for a year without any serious problems, but now I've decided to switch to Cymbalta because effexor doesn't stay in the body long enough. I know every medication has its horror stories, and I was just wondering... do they cause PERMANENT damage or just temporary?

theres this guy in my class that just laughs just out of randomness. itll be silent in the class and then he'll be laughing to himself like crazy and i can sometimes see drool come out of his mouth. most of the times i have no idea what hes laughing at sometimes i do. he'll also start talking to himself and then sometimes afterward would start laughing but this guy makes pretty good grades though. one day i said something stupid right off the bat but wasnt worthy of laughter and all of a sudden he just bursts into laughing i got mad and called him a freak b/c i knew he was laughing at me. later that day he scared the crap outa me when he told me that he would get a gun and shoot me straight in the head, burn my truck, and kill my dog. should i be worried about this guy? does he have some sort of mental problem cuz im a little freaked out right now.

i want to go to a psychiatrist. (i spelled that wrong) but my parents don't think i should go, cause they said it's a waste of money, and say it's something that i can get it fixed by myself. but i think i'm bi-polar, cause i've always been having these ups & downs.. for example one day i'm so depressed and so hopeless, & then the next i'm really giddy, and happy etc.
i really want to if i really am bi-polar, but my parents treat it as a joke. i don't know what i should do anymore..please give me some good & helpful adivice..

thanks for your help.

I have severe depression, anxiety, and bi-polar disorder and I suspect this is the reason women back away from me. I'm not a person with a bad temper or any violent tendencies.

What is that? America is the greatest country in history in my opinion. What makes it great is the freedom we have to express our ideas, our support or dissent towards and about the decisions and actions the government makes. The government for the people, by the people, of the people. So when someone says if you don't like it then leave, what are they really saying?
