My ex husband does not like the idea of my being involved with my daughter's life beyond phone calls and of course my regular visitation. He is a good father overall, and he is remarried with three additional children. I want so badly to be involved as much as possible.... with school, her girl scouts, things of that nature....but circumstances from the past have put me in a position where I am trying to regain rights (i'm not so much talking legal rights) yes, legal...but more just the right to be able to show up at as her mother and be a part of her life outside of his home. I believe his wife plays a big part in this... I dont' understand her position or perspective as I have never been married to someone with an ex-wife.,maybe it's tough, but I do nothing but try my hardest to be friendly.I do not act as a threat or any other inappropriate way, ever ... we are very different though, she and I.... like night and day. question is ... how can I approach this fairly and with class?

I've been on the SSRI Celexa to treat depression for about a month now. I've noticed that my sex drive has diminished to practically nothing. I've heard lowering my dose of Celexa might help but i'm already at the lowest daily dosage. Is there anything else I can take that will help without risking my depression coming back? Thanks :p

Is it appropriate to talk to a doctor who i have seen for years about my self harm? Or is it only counselors who will discuss this with you? Thanks.

I just took my first Abilify 5mg tablet last night around 9:30 before bed. I have had an awful headache since. And everytime I try to get moving I get nauseated, lightheaded and have to lay back down. I've been in bed all day - just trying to get up now and I feel the headache coming back on. Supposed to start Lamictal next week then add an antidepressant in 1 month. Thing is if it's going to be this hard..... I don't know if I can stand it. Silly but I want to take my kids to see Shrek tomorrow and if I can't even get out of bed...ugggh. I took Zyprexa before at bedtime and it did knock me out the first day after but no headache and no nausea and then the next day I was fine. How quickly will these go away?

I know my medication has something to do with it, but I overeat to the point where I can barely breathe. I know I'm depressed a lot. But if I eat a little bit or a moderate amount of food, I still feel like it's not enough, & I become afraid & worry, hoping that I won't pass out. & I get dizzy & weak a lot. It's like my psych medication is telling my brain to make me eat like a dog. How can I stop this?

Whats wrong with me? I should me grateful as im quite well-off, however what ever i do, going out with mates or being with family, i constantly feel upset. I was thinking, its hormones right? but its been going on for, hmm, 5 yrs?! that just can't be right. I cry alot, sometimes for stupid reasons, but even though i have lots of close people to me, i still feel alone. Its got a lot worse recently, maybe thats cause of exams. Even still im finding life harder and harder. I
I even think bout killing myself, tbh i don't think i would, but it always enters my mind. I don't like thinking bout it, however i can't remember the last time i was truley happy. I so badly want to be, but i can't pretend. I need help and fast.

.... do you also have to go to a therapist? Is it required?

Are you supposed to go to a medical doctor or go talk to a psychiatrist first- and if my doctor prescribed me something, would that mean I would have to also go through some kind of therapy?

I have just spent the last week in hospital. 8 days actually. On massive doses of Morphine. To control pain from a massive infection that has developed a cyst.
I used to be on more larger doses of Morphine in every shape and form 2 years ago+ but went 'cold turkey' and I know it was the 'wrong' thing to do, but got off of my pain killers.
I was NEVER SUFFERING FROM AN ADDICTION TO 'WANTING TO GET 'HIGH' my body just got so used to them that when I found a chemical free option I took it and gave these stinking chemicals up.
Now after a week my 'body' is so used to them again my 'body' not mind was possibly going to crave them when they stopped.
Today I was discharged home and the Doctor's and Nurses' were very aware of the addiction 'physically' fact they gave me a small dose, about a weeks worth if I'm really stingy, to combat this.
But already, as I am being stingy, the withdrawls are starting.
I will be seeing someone next week about having some support this time coming off.

I just started taking abilify, I already take lamictal and klonopin. Yesterday was my first day taking it, I slept pretty much all day, and was very sick to my stomach.. I don't know if I'm just not feeling well or is it this medicine already, I was against taking this medicine from the beginning but my Doc, asked me to at least try it, but I have been doing great with the meds, I have already been taking. Can this medicine cause you to become sick that fast? I was so mean yesterday and I am still so sick to my stomach.

It doesn't matter what I ask this employee to do, another way of doing the task is suggested. I'm not exaggerating when I say, "without fail" this is the case. I am not rude in my response and often ask this employee what is the reasoning behind their suggestion and how is it better? I listen and then make a final decision. Sometimes I have taken the suggestion and sometimes I haven't. On occasion the employee who is taller than I, will intently enter "my space"...not alot, but somewhat, to question a final decision. There is an "air" of anger and "how could you be so stupid"? I continue to hold my ground without giving the impression, I'm ruffled. This employee is a relative of a friend and they are thrilled this employee would have the opportunity for this experience; however, it is "wearing" to have the constant challenge. Does anyone know of a "disability" or personality disorder that is associated with this kind of pronounced behavior?

That used to be the way it was done by the medical proffesion, before there were so many anti-depressants. There certainly were cures and one wonders with the seeming epidemic of depression and bi-polar disorders now (even teen suicides) whether those disorders have not increased.

I have borderline Personality Disorder, Depression, Impulse Control Disorder, and Possible Bipolar as well. I have ruined a lot of things with my friends, but at the time I didnt know I had these illness except for depression. What I want to know is how I can get them to forgive me and give me another chance while knowing that I might do things uncontrollably?
