I smoke daily and have always enjoyed it. But I feel guilty for spending so much money and living life with a buzz. It feels like I always need to be high just to get through the day and I never lived this way before I started smoking years ago. All of my friends smoke weed and it would be hard to be around them when they do it. I am also scared I will be terribly bored or won't know what to do with my time. (learned habit, i know)
How can I go about quitting smoking weed? What are some benefits to quitting? Some encouragement to quit? or some ideas to hang out with friends or stay sober

How did they turn out? What did you do with son or wish you would of done?

Our sons profile: He's 7 and is always saying he wants to kill family members and hates them. He has tryed to hurt baby sister many times (hitting her with object, punching, dragging her), but has not succeeded at really hurting her bad - yet. He had ADD. He fears no one- he has challenged kids twice his size and never cares how much trouble he will get in. Ya, we have spanked him, too. Then it seems he will try to revenge us in some way after we do ( he'll non-chalantly throw something your way that could really hurt.) My husband and I feel somewhat scared of him. He sees pyc, but he just acts like -oh he just wants attention-no duh!! I think it is some kind of mental disorder, but what do you do to get some real help?

I just got a job at 7-11, and I started yesterday. I like my job, but I have to deal with so many customers. It gets tiring and it's hard to keep a smile after thousands of people. So, yesterday I started and was able to smie at every single one, but when I got hoe I learned smeone had died, and learned a close friend got into major trouble that he may not be able to get out of. So I'm pretty upset today (my second day). Anyone have suggestions on how to keep an uplifting positive attitude? I think I may just remember that I'm grateful to have a job, and remember that each person is special, and I am special, too. Also, I may just try and think of positive experiences I have had that make me smile... or what that paycheck is gonne feel like...

My father is in a convalescent home for seniors. After my visit ended, upon leaving his room, I entered the hallway, and a female patient, about 75 years of age walked up to me and punched me repeatedly in the stomach, and pulled my right arm, trying to twist it. She was muttering paranoid gibberish about 'too many of you.' I wrested myself away from her and continued on my way out.

I wanted to report it to staff, but noone was around and I had to leave.

I still intend to report this, but what can they do to ensure this will not happen again? Can they restrain her, sedate her, keep her in her room?

What action should I have taken at the moment? I realize this woman is basically non compes mensis, and her punches were really weak, but all the same, I still do not feel safe. What if she had a knife?

What should I do?

depression runs in my family as far back as i know but my dad doesnt believe in mental conditions unless its something like Dow syndrom, i've seen guidence counselors and all say i am severly depressed, but my dad wont do anything about it, i have thoughts of suicide and such, the only thing that keeps me going are my friends and thats not good. I've seen peoples friends of years betray them and if it happened to me i dont think i could handle it.

1) Does being depressed make you more irritable towards others and your response when others approach you??

2) Depression - I know it can affect your sleep but to feeling sooo tired all the time and sleeping lots to having a very disturbed sleep (ie_ waking up ever 1/2 hour to hour??) to not sleeping at all ??

I have loving parents, loving partner, an interesting personality, intelligence, great sense of humour, a pet cat and a nice body and yet, I still think life is better off not happening. Is that depression? I don't feel depressed and I've definitely felt depressed in the past. This doesn't even hurt. It's just an acceptance that life isn't worth being born into, but since I was, I had better make the best of it while I wait to die. What's so bad about that?

I've had them for years now. At first I couldn't even get on a bus cause I felt "out of control" and each time the bus went round a corner I felt like I was on a roller coaster, you know that weird feeling in your chest when you go down a steep incline on a coaster, only worse. You should see me on a plane during take off now !! It's kinda calmed down a bit over the years but even to this day I get panic attacks. It comes in various forms from felling kind of hollow inside, suddenly having to do something like tap my foot or fingers etc to try and knock my self out of it and bring myself "back". I also sometimes feel like I don't have a body at times.Most of these symptoms are accompanied with a very VERY fast heart rate, that tingle in the stomach and chest, it's really hard to explain in words, but if you've been through one, you'll know exactly what I mean. I was actually at a job interview yesterday and took a panic attack, I was pretty lucky that it was a group information session that I took the attack but the real issue was that I had to give an individual presentation straight after,,,, all eyes on me, not good but I survived, just. Thank god the one on one interview isn't for another week !! Anyway, I'm wondering if anybody has worked out any specific information as to what sets their attacks off. I think everybody will be different, but I'd really like to compare what sets it off in different people. Also, what do you guys do to get over it ? Have you ever had one in a really bad place, i.e. job interview, giving a speech or what ever. Does anybody have any real horror stories that they'd like to share.

I got up for my early shift feeling normal, but then couldn't breathe and was a wreck for 4+ hours (Not like me at all) Since then I've had a series of panic attacks and a growing fear of going out my front door (The back garden is fine with high walls) The Dr told me at first all I needed was a girly movie and a box of tissues. Then later when he was told that I have an attack when I try to go outside he said he'd give me another sick line for work on the condition I visit him!! There is no way I can do this right now, and I feel nobody is willing to help you unless you're trying to kill yourself!! I've also been reading about mental health the past couple of days and the symptoms of Borderline Personaliy Disorder really ring true to me. Does anyone have any idea what I can do? Thank you.

Oxyde de magnésium - Maltodextrine - Antiagglomérant: stéarate de magnésium - Vitamine B6 )
, one tablet daily since 2 weeks . Obviously , his hyperactivity is reduced and seizures stopped . My questions are : Can I continuously give him the daily tablet ? Any side affects ? Any break interval between courses (pack of 60) ? How often ?
