After years of repressing all this anger and tension in my mind, it seems that lately..it's coming out. I've been distancing myself from everyone completely and giving people the cold shoulders if they had to do anything in raising my anger level. I'm yelling at my family and blaming them for everything they have done.

I've been good at not making sure no one gets physically hurt knowing there would be consequences later on. But I know I'm going to violently beat someone up if I can't control my anger. But I'm just ready to hurt someone, even myself, at times and I'm getting closer and closer.

I really have no one I could talk to or trust in the real world and I really don't know what I am going to do anymore then just explode.

Just wondering on how other people control their anger. Because I know other than that it's going to be the same answers.

I'm aware that everyone is different and that the outcome can go from mild to severe.

If you have exhausted all your options and the depression has taken a turn towards the worst, would you do it. ECT, in many cases, is a longer treatment than most people think. Because the depression can come back (most do), patients need to do maintenance ECT every few weeks or monthly. When agreeing to this, the committment can range between 3 to 6 months of treatments.

I was in this situation just a few weeks ago and my doctor decided not to do ECT due to my health and concerns over my body being able to make it through the process. For me, agreeing to ECT was very difficult.

Ok I'm a sophmore in high school and I personally see myself as smart, kind, and funny but I feel like I rub people the wrong way :/ Like when meeting people I'm either really crazy and wild so they either see me as fun and cool or really dumb which REALLY bothers me. On the other hand I can clam up around people and they see me as too quiet, boring, and once again dumb which also bothers me. It's so weird and frustrating!!! I've wondered if I have duel personalities, what do you think and how can I help it?!


Or is it all in my head? :/

What I really wanted to know:
Do you feel that being online has made it easier to be open and honest?
If so, do you feel you could talk this openly with family, friends or your partner?

Do you think life sucks? I don't know. I am a Muslim but though I don't perform full solat (5 times a day) - it means I am not organizedly religious. I have too many times thought about suicide. I am sure I have many mental problems, that sometimes I thought I am cured, but apparently I wasn't. bipolar disorder, (obsessive compulsive, avoidant and narcissistic) personality disorder. I want to make it short. I have fear, depression and I don't know others. I am not good writing in English. I am really upset. I live in Malaysia. There is no professional psychiatry here. So I really don't know what to do. What should I do? I know suicide is unforgivable, and I am afraid of the torture in grave too. Ok, Ok, I am not good in English. So I hope my writing will relieve me a little. At least before I commit suicide I have opportunity to express myself. I would delete my accaunt for shame. Assalamualaikum.

Lately i've had anxiety constantly. Sometimes i can give myself a panic attack. I think about my breathing and convince myself it's irregular and then my chest starts to feel heavy, and my heart starts beating fast, like i'm about to die or pass out. It scares me and its happening daily now. I'm constantly thinking about it, so it makes it worse, but i can't stop! I thought something was seriously wrong so i went to the ER and they did a bunch of tests and said i was fine. They gave me an inhaler and ibuprofen, and didnt take me seriously because im a teenager. I dont want drugs I just want this to stop. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks.

I'm a 21yr old college student. Lately I've been looking back and I realized how much I wasted my youth and missed out on life. As a teenager I was miserable, living with my parent. Had no social life, no real friends only bad ones and never had a gf. I wasted my time playing games and drugs as a form of escapism from my miserable reality and parents. I didn't realize what life was supposed to be. Always having money problems and I suffered poor health. I had sleep apnea, but we were too poor to see a doctor. I achieved nothing in school, got bad grades and had no ambition in anything.
It feels like I've just woken up from a 10yr coma into this mess called my life. Had I known I could move away from home and live with other family relatives I would have done so, but I was kept ignorant of that fact.
Oh God I feel like crap right now, I have no social life, I'm on probation. Its been a month since my 3rd semester has started and I've missed so many classes.

For about 3 months now I, without any break, have been consumed by a fear that everyone potentially is out to get me. Like that people either want to kill me or at the very least do bodily harm to me. I swear to you that I have been thinking of this fear for 3 months now every minute and hour of the day. I could b reading a book & still these thoughts pop into my mind while reading or even talking to a friend of mine on the phone. I draw up scenarios in my mind that would seem impossible 2 others but possible 2 me in which people harm me or r plotting to harm me. I am 19 and I am already beginning to go insane. Like actually insane 2 the point where I am actually avoiding as much contact with the outside world as possbile besides the friends and family that I trust. I fear that old enemies from the past are plotting to kill me in the future. It is taking over my entire life. I won't even go places much anymore unless I'm familiar with them. Is this normal? Should I get help? Advice???

[I know this is kinda long, but I really appreciated anyone who takes time to read it and offer advice]
So, I used to be overweight as a child, then as I learned about nutrition and exercise I lost weight. I was almost at my ultimate goal weight when stress hit me and my weight climbed up almost 20 lbs! Over this time (the last several months), I developed a binge problem. I am disgusted with it, and I keep making the decision to quit and lose weight again, and I may be successful for a few weeks but then it starts again. I eat very healthy and exercise almost every day, but I repeatedly am self sabotaged by binging. I keep telling myself "just toughen up" and thinking I can do it, but the longer this cycle continues the more I begin to think I'm fooling myself.

I think I need professional help -- I hate to make this into something bigger than it is, but I'm very serious, this is taking over my life. It's gone on for too long and it needs to end. The problem is ...(cont.)

Ever heard of HR2640? No? Well, of course not. However, that won't stop it from being passed and signed by Bush within the next couple of months.

http://www.gunowners.org/a061807.htm

http://www.gunowners.org/a061407.htm

The bill, officially documented as HR2640, will limit anyone and everyone that has been said to have a mental disorder in gun ownership. Of course, when I say "limit," what I really mean is "cripple." This country and our freedoms were formed and based on a bloody hill of violence, death, and rebellion. You would have nothing but rice and a good whip gash if it weren't for a couple pieces of lead between the eyes of those who held power before.

For those too lazy or blind to research this bill for themselves, when passed it will disable anyone who has been diagnosed with any mental illness from being able to own, sell, or purchase a fire arm. (by the way, Bush has publicly stated that he's FOR this law) OH, and yes, this includes ADHD and ADD. Believe it? Research.

For the past 18 months or so I have had low energy levels. I began to not enjoy doing activities that I did earlier in my life so I saw my doctor who put me on Lexapro as an anti-depressant. Both my sister and my mother have been on anti's before. My sister is still currently taking them and has been for five years or so. I have been on Lexapro to try and "level" out my mental status and to try and erase my super "highs" and "lows". It has been helping some lately, but I have no energy. I am a highschool soccer player that plays on the varsity level so physical activites can't be the problem here. I also eat right, don't drink sodas (normally not coffee), and drink lots and lots of water. Even after eight hours of sleep I feel horrible as if I can't do anything much less want to get out of bed. Does anyone have any suggestions to what I can do to get more energy? Is this more mentally related or physically? I want to do activities, but my body, either brain or physical says no.

My daughter-in-law has been on Lexapro for 5 months or more and she has become a real witch biting everybody's head off.
On Monday out of the clear blue sky she asked my son for a divorce.
