Mental Health - September 2007

I'm 30 yrd old now but at about 11-14. I went through physical abuse with kids at school.. I used to roam times square when i was 12 yrs old with a radio and sit on the sidewalk. I had no friends and was an outcast. I took the subway at midnight, etc. When i look back i am lucky i wasnt killed. At the time my father was kicked out for being verbally abusive, my mom worked 3 jobs, guess i felt lost.
I had nobody, my relatives never came to see me. I tried telling my Mom how sad and depressed i was alot back then. She just would say "oh get over it", "Stop whining",, so then i would just close up and never mention anything again.
My life turned around at age 14 when i was enrolled in a new school and was able to make friends, went on to college.
I used to tell myself those "dark days" never exsisted, but I have been thinking of it recently, and how terrible my childhood was.
Should I tell my Mom?

ok, I'm mature, kind, nice and calm but if I get angry I scream, swear a million times, want to kill someone or myself, tease someone so badly, yell out lies, break things, feel like life is so crap! Anger make me very different! Why is this?!

Do you have any idea how much money the salaries and the weapons and the transportation and the medical and the logistics and the trucks and the planes for a 140,000 man army cost?

Only governments can afford those kinds of thing.

How can a retired officer just "start" a business like that?

Result=SUPER short on sleep. now im hooked on caffeine, and im jittery all the time. Today at marching practice i couldnt even march because my mind was everywhere but there! thank god i have an awesome caring teacher. im really dehydrated, which=me having blackouts! i was talking to my band director and he said that its not healthy and i just have to find "me" time.

Help me. I feel really really depressed about my life. I'm going to try my best to type this up but I don't even have energy to do that. I feel so depleted and upside down.
I've turned 20 this year and I've become more aware about my life. I've been self-reflecting a lot the past few years.
During my entire teenage hood I was miserable. I lived like a zombie to repress my depression. I would wake up goto school, come back home, go play games or go online then sleep. My dad was an alcoholic and an *******, we were poor and i had no friends. The "friends" I had were backstabbing cunts. But I sticked with them because I was so lonely all the time, any companionship was better than none. I also did alot of drugs. Every aspect of my life was down the drain; relationship, health, finance.
As a result I wasted my youth away. I achieved nothing and barely graduated high school. After I graduated I lived in isolation for almost 2 years before I went to community college.

Everyday I look at the clock at 11:11. Am or PM, I never miss it. I rarely ever notice myself checking the time until I spot 11:11 and it feels eerie. For the past year I would see 11:11 every now and then, but it's become an everyday occurrence within the past couple months. What does this mean? Is there any significance in this number? I also know of 3 very different people that experience this 11:11 thing too.

Im caring for my grandfather who has alzeihmers(earlier stages) He is also not able to walk or do any occupational duties for himself. I moved in a few months ago cause the Doctors were no longer going to allow him in the care of my grandmother alone.. Thats why i came here to basically help and to prevent possibly a nursing home/assisted living. Now when i came back i sat the family down and explained what i was there for. Reason being is i come from a family where my grandfather owns a business. I explained that im strictly here to care for my grandfather and i am not here for the business. Also we made an agreement on $450 a week 4 24-7 care. Now remind you I have my own place and I left my life to assist the family but what has happened is im constantly being asked to work this business.. Im drained emotionaly and physically enough doing the care giving let alone taking on a business.. Am I wrong for this? Am i asking to much money? Just some feed back.. Am i unreasonable.

Since my last job, I've been unemployed for two years and this question paralysis me when I think about interviews. I shut down immeidately after scheduling a interview and it's like my mind goes blank and I know I carry this state of mind to the interview with me, which projects bad vibes. The only hope I run with is that maybe this time I'll get lucky and they'll pick me, other then this I feel like a brick wall standing in front of the interviewer .

I do these EVERYDAY and i was wondering if you guys think I have OCD?....

before i go to sleep is when I do these the most.

I check to make sure my door is locked. I keep pulling on my door over and over again. Than I walk over to my window, look all around, and walk back to my door and do it again. Than back to my window, and so on. for a long time! I try to tell myself its stupid so I go to lay down but I cant because I think my door is not locked. so i do that whole thing over again.

Something else that I do is turn my hallway light on and off. I turn it on, look down the hallway, and turn the light off again. I try to walk away, but I don't feel right. SO I feel I need to turn it back on. I do this alot throughout the day. especially when im going to leave the house.

I also hate it when people go to the bathroom. lol it sounds funny but I will go out of my way to go in there first so they use a toilet that I dont use. Fear of germs maybe? I wash my hands alot in the day

all the time, i go to yahoo answers and type in a question on a particular habit of mine. wheather its laughing or me being sad or whatever (check out my questions if you dont know what im talking about) and i get answers that say im bipolar or depressed or schitzophrenic. and i look for those answers. i enjoy being told im bipolar or schitzophrenic (not the biggest fan of depression, but....). every day or every other day, i try to think of something i do that may lead people to say that im "mentally ill." why do i do this? i want to stop. its getting on my nerves. but i cant. this was the only solution i could think of. lol. maybe someone will say im nuts : )

so, how do i stop?

I am a private person. I hate it when people ask to many questions about me. A guy I work with whom I share rides to work with wouldn't stop firing questions at me for almost the whole of the 45 minute journey to work today. Sometimes his questions get very personal and I feel like telling him to shut the f##k up!

I'm a loner but I have no desire to form friendships. I'm only talking to people at work because I don't want to appear stuck up. I feel that people tire me out too much and are demanding. On the other hand I feel as if I am missing out on life due to having no friends.

or maybe it's my pill. i feel VERY lonly. like i have no friends. i have friends i just feel like they are all too busy and have no interest in talking to me. i'm not close to anyone. i have a large family, but everybody's busy. AND, i'm married and i have 2 children. My husband is not my friend. he cares only about himself. doesn't talk to me and refuses to have sex with, and...i'm pretty. i don't know, if my life really sucks, or do i just think it does. i feel like i have nothing exciting in my life...my kids! they are very important to me. but my husband is so into himself and his looks, and his everything, i think he's just plotting to leave me and take them from me. see what mean? this is how i think all the time. i could change my thinking...however then i feel like i'm just in denial the truth. FAKE.The only people who love and care about me is my baby who can't talk to me, and my parents who are very old and don't need to deal with my problems. i am truly UNHAPPY.
