Mental Health - May 2007

I've read the old questions about emetophobia (fear of throwing up), but I didn't find any cures. Does anybody know how to get rid of it? Is anybody else suffering from this?

This week my doctor perscribed me Klonopin. I used seroquel before for anxiety attacks but wanted to switch because I didnt like the side effects. I took a klonopin 5 hours ago for anxiety and i never noticed any effect. So obviously I need dosages adjusted with it or something. But I dont want ot take a larger dose without first talking to the doctor because it is an addictive drug and i want to be careful with it. But I still feel like crap right now and have no way of contacting the doctor so I was wondering if I take a seroquel is there a risk of it reacting badly with the klonopin in my system? cuz i need something that works and i know the seroquel works.

I have been told that Stress and anxiety and raise your white count and
wanted to know if any of you have notice that is your visits to the
Dr's . My White Count has been elavated but only slightly but has been
like that off and on but more so on most of the time. It is suppose to
be around 4000 to 10000 and mind has been on the high side around
10,900 to 11,900 and once 13,500 but only once on that but mainly
around those other 2 ranges 10,900 to 11,900. Also can any of out meds
cause your white count to raise like that.?

Any information would be great.

Hi, Im 22 years old, married, and been having feelings I just cant shake. Started a couple months ago when all I would do is cry out of no where I wouldnt want to go anywhere. I went to the doctor was was told I had major depression. I was put on some pills and they helped. Then something happened in which I can not go into detail, but I stopped talking the pills and was fine. Then the reason I was happy went away and can no longer come back. Since then its been getting worse. I feel as if I am invisible. Like i just want to get in the car and drive and no one would notice. I have a 2 year old little girl and she is my main reason for staying. I know she needs me but I cant get out of this rut that I am in to give her the attention she needs. I feel so alone. I have told my husband this and he of course says you're not alone and not invisible, but I still feel this way. What do I do?

I'm 15 and I think I fit many of the characteristics of AS. I'm not very social, don't really get all that attached to people, and have never had many, if any, close friends. People have said to me "You don't know how to read people!" and I guess they could be right - I don't really interperet facial expressions, miss sarcasm, and do things like talk "too loud" and say things that people consider rude. People also say I'm immature (for example, I have a teddy bear which I CAN NOT sleep without)

I also have ultra-sensitive ears, and I HATE loud noises. When I was younger I used to scream and cry when ever someone was vaccuming. Also, I can't stand the tone of the bell they use in my school... it's like being tortured. I also hate the sensation of drawing with chalk or felt-tip markers, or the sound of people using such things.

I have really strong, obsessive interests which people say are "weird" like brain tumors and Jim Henson.

Do you think I could have AS?

I've been experiancing symptoms of Anxiety/Depression. I went to my MD and she agreed with me. She put me on meds but i had a really bad time on them and she told me to stop, told me I could possibly be bipolar becuase its coming out in late teens (im 18). She referred me to the local mental heath clinic. I was very reluctant to go but was basically forced to by a very close friend, the lady who did the assessment on me ruled out that I was bipolar but was experiancing anxiety with brought on depression. She told me to go back to my MD and get put back on meds, so I did BUT .. it was suppose to have been a joint effect with both my doctor and the clinic keeping an eye on me and the meds. The doctor bothers me but I dont have a problem going to see her but the clinic I'm avoiding their phone calls so i dont have to make an appointment. What should I do ... Can I just stick with my own Doctor ... Should I phone the clinic and say no stop phoning? go for one appointment? ANy Advice

Please share your opinions on the side effects that you experienced and if it helped your depression/anxiety. Also, if you had any weight gain/loss.
Thanks so much ! :)

I am now on my third medication - each one seems to make me really tired! Each one has made me yawn constantly!

Does anyone else experience this? And could anybody tell me about an anti depressant they've tried that proved really energising?

Serious replies only, please - and many thanks for your time and help.

What does it feel like?
I'm getting very worried I may be suffering from at least mild depression.
If you go to the doctor, and don't specifically adress it, will they diagnose you?
Is it like that? I'm confused as to if it is a state of mind, or an actual illness.

Well, a month ago I did something that angered my friends, my closest friends.
I have asked for forgiveness many times, even made cards and stuck to their doors.
They said they have forgiven me, but in reality they haven't.
Recently, my second closest, i said something that I never thought would hurt her, but it did. She said she doesn't want to be my friend anymore

Also, I said something to my closest friend (who is also my boyfriend) the following day and he sorta got upset

the rest of the friends I can't really hang with anymore

Yesterday was the day that close friend of mine said she doesn't want to be my friend anymore
And with my boyfriend, he didn't talk to me all day

In the evening I wanted to talk to him on the phone, but my dad did not allow me as it was 11. I had to hang up on my bf, and he kept calling. My dad answered, scared him, and put the phone outside my door. He yelled at me too, since I promised I wouldnt talk after 10, but it was important.

Has anyone out there seemed to experience blotchy skin or acne along with swelling or edema on Abilify?

It's supposed to be weight neutral but it seems to make me so hungry plus continue to swell up. also I started to have noticeable acne around the same time I started taking it.

Any of those things could be unrelated to abilify, so I'm wondering if anyone else noticed any of those things occuring when they started this drug. If so, did it ever go away? Esp the hunger???

Thank you for any responses you may have!

I was wondering if anyone knows of a good psychiatrist that will prescribe Xanax. My old psychiatrist was real stingy with the prescriptions---but I think the benefits outway the risks. I feel crazy and like I am going to die when I have an anxiety attack--and sometimes mine last for hours on end (not just a few minutes)...

Anyone know of a good doctor in Houston, Texas?

It is a legit and necessary for my existance--and I am almost out of my medication! Thanks.
