From what I've researched, bipolar people feel very intense emotions and say things as such. If they say they love you or that you are beautiful... how much truth may be in that? Is it real at all -- or is it just the extremeness of the illness? Curious...

Okay so I dont know how to say this. Well Ive been playing the choking game with my friends for about 3 years. Yes I know i am such an idiot. But now I want to play it by myself and the only way i know how to is with a ligature. And I know how stupid that is. I can easily kill myself like that. But I can't get the idea out of my head. It's bad enough that Ive done this with friends but now that I want to do it on my own. Why am I feeling like this. I am so tempted to do this but what if I die from it. My family would be so upset. Why do I want to do this. I cant understand this at all. It's pretty much my stupidest idea ever. And no I don't have a death wish. I just loving the feeling of the game yes its dangerous....but this idea is even worse. I have been thinking about it for the last couple of days. And when ever I think about it i feel a sense of security...like nothings going to happen this one time. But I know thats the worst poossible idea because i dont know that for sure.

I haven't always been like this, but every since my dad past away, i've been terrified of dying. I'm scared of how i will die. The thought won't get out of my head, Im terrified to leave my family behind, terrfied of how painful it wil lbe, terrified of when it's going tohappen.

Oaky, i know that everyone dies, and i know that i WILL die someday. I know this. But i am still terrified. My friends and i went to the fair a few nights ago, and i couldnt even ride any rides because i was terrified they could break and i would die a horrible death.

What can i do to get over this fear? Please dont laugh. I know i sound crazy. But after my dad died, i have been going through a lot.

I'm a college student working a part-time job, and I am asking because my boss gave me the choice of staying or quitting my job. She asked because I truthfully haven’t been doing a good job, as I've been depressed for some period of time now. My bosses seem to think I'm incompetent, but it's really that I'm so shy, I'm scared to ask them questions. My depression has made me lazy, which in turn has caused me to be late a few times, and I even called in late two hours during my 3-hour shift started. (My bosses let me stay because the job is very lenient - it's a low-skill, manual labor job.)

The reason why I would like to stay, though, is that I'm usually a hard worker - it's just that I've been feeling very depressed and discouraged lately.

I think I may have down syndrome (I'm almost 26). I always struggled with school (help was required in some areas) I went on to do tertiary education and have a driving licence. I find it really difficult to talk to people about it (hence I have never mentioned the subject) how do I mention it to a doctor cos I am at the stage now where I just want to know if I am DS or not. . .

I have mood swings, but not like bipolar (I don't think)...I have really really extreme lows (very depressed and suicidal) and then I have times where I am "okay", but never highs where I am happy. The lows can last weeks at a time, the "okays" only last a few hours, maybe couple days. Is this a mental disorder/what is it? Thanks in advance! PLEASE help!!

So I started working at Mobil on Tuesday and my stalker person came in and I freaked out. I came home and still wasn't asleep by fou in the morning. Then I went back yesterday and worked and he came in again and I freaked out. I was going to wait on him but then the person who was training me seen the look on my face and came and rescued me. I went and told my boss yesterday about this guy and how I didn't feel safe becuz of him and she told me that he was a regular for more then 10 years and that she can't just bann him. I either had to find a way to get used to it or I had to quit. I've been talking to this person who works at a shelter and some other people and all of them told me that my safety should always come first so if I didn't feel safe that I should quit. I didn't want to quit but I did. And now I regret it. I feel as if I should be over it. What is wrong wtih me?? I have to lie to my parents about not having a job anymore cuz they wouldn't approve of quiting for that....

I know someone who may have Alzheimers. She's in her early 60s. She forgets simple tasks that she's been doing for years. She's easily agitated and overreacts to any type of stress. I don't mean an occasional brain f()rt or a bad day. I mean crying at work because she couldn't fill out a simple requisition form even though she's filled out many of them over the years. This has been getting increasingly worse for the last few years. She's going to lose her job because she can't do her job anymore.

This woman is the sole care giver for her nearly 90 year old mother. I don't think she's capable of caring for her mother any more. Without a job I don't know what's going to happen to them. They have no other relatives. Is there a way I could anonymously report her to DHS or something so that someone with authority will look at the situation? I hate to think of two helpless old ladies but I'm not a relative and have no standing in this matter.

've been going through extreme depression lately and with school starting back up today it seems to getting worse. I just keep thinking about suicide and how I don't want to go on anymore. I went to the doctors and they didnt seem to take my depression to seriously. They gave me these pills that didn't do anything. I told my mom I'm depressed and she didn't take me serious either. My parents will be gone for the next few days so I have to go on like this for a couple days like this. What should I do. Just tell my mom I'm megadepressed and demand to go to the doctors?

My mother in law 75 with Alzheimers requires assistance showering as she recently had a total hip replacement (about 9 weeks ago now) and is not supposed to bend certain ways. We have already had one slippage and don't want another one. My father in law can't help because he just had cancer surgery. So I have hired a CNA to come in to assist with showering both MIL and FIL. All she does with MIL is to do her lower legs, then steps out and allow MIL to do own shower. However MIL doesn't remember that she is to receive help, and refuses when they come to help telling them she is fine and can do it on her own. I am tired of repeating myself to her and telling her that she does need some assistance because of the surgery. I just want her to be safe until FIL is better and able to assist in case of an emergency, which will be about three more weeks. They cannot live with us so that is out of the question. Two years of being on call 24/7 is taking it's toll on me. Any suggestions?
