Well. This is my Senior year in school.
I have a nervous problem and senior year is gonna be all about presentation so we are ready for the "Senior project" which involves a 15 minute presentation. Anyways I want to know how to not care of what people thinks? I always have had this problem in high school for some reason. Like I don't breathe enough when I'm nervous infront of the class. Like I'll read something. For example read a sentence infront of the class I'll start my voice all loud. Then my voice starts to go lower after every word and so on. I don't know how to help myself from not breathing. Anyone can help me? I'd appreciate it.

I've had Attention Deficite Disorder, since I was 10.

I've been on ritilin since then. But in the last 6 months I've taken myself off of it.

Now everyone is saying i'm being really B!tchy and not fun to be around.

I'm always a little sad. And have NO self confidence.

I'm wondering if the saddness and anger and everything could be a result of getting off the meds.

Please I need help... I don't know how long I can go feeling like this...

Right noe I feel like I have lost whatever purpose in life. Go ahead and give stupid answers if it makes you happy. I try to do the right things. I am not perfect but i am tired of always being the one that is not thought about or need i say that i would like to have someone that cares about me, my needs, and can let go of my faults, which are stupid, such as why i,m not home to fic dinner on time. The thing is that unless you have a bloody nose or bruises the verbal abuse doesnt count in the cops in their immaculate uniforms. It has been over 30 years and does anyone really care because I have just about stopped caring myself. I do not know where to turn or what to do. The doctors donot have all the answers just the money. does anyone really care or maybe the answer is not there. Thanks anyway.

Just not feeling as though I can do much of anything academically, want to focus more on my sobriety and spirituality. My sponsor asked if I want to take the semester off- I definitely don't want to do that. Just in a sober rut I suppose- suggestions?

My doctor said I have "low grade psychosis." She didn't give me a full explanation what she meant by that. Does anyone have this or know what it is exactly?

I recently opened up a bar in a small new england town, everything has been wonderful but last week one of our young (30 years old) regular of all regulars was murdered. It has set the saddest tone over the bar, and it's becoming unbearable to be there. Even for me. I want to bring spirits back up, and bring business back to how it was, but I don't know how to conquer this horrible morbid gloom that has set into everyones hearts. Any ideas or advice would be much appreciated.

my cousins wife is a really down to earth kind of girl. Very nice and bubbly. A couple days ago she got possessed, or what ever you call it. She first collasped on the ground and was woken up by my cousin, who then took her to the room, where she started to laugh and say crazy things. different voices came out of her mouth and she started saying a few names taht is not reconized by anyone. The whole time that this happened tears were rolling down her face. This went on for a good 20 minutes or so, she was shouting and yelling, saying taht she is not scared of anyone, and that we were scared of "them" When she woke up again, she had no recollection of what happened. When asked if she remember what happened, she assumed she fell asleep and just woke up. My question is? could this be just a mental thing?

To start off I'm a stay at home dad till I can find a decent job, i now understand that term "a womans work is never done, " or something like that though I'm not a woman, I guess it applies to home makers, which *ehem* I'd have to say I am. No money for day care . Well I have tons of things to do around the house, clean up, organizing, finding papers, cleaning up after my son has torn everything up, etc. Now, I have everything all in place and ready to attack to get done though, I still have other things to get to also. Why is it that when i get started i just feel so overwhlemd and I want to go to sleep? I actualyl feel tired even if I had plenty of sleep. My son is very high maintanance, I have to keep an eye on him all the time and give him something to do or play with him and he's very distracting, but at times I have no time to play with him, its like cleaning and up keeping is never ending. Am I lazy? This is depressing.

I asked a question earlier about this, and removed it because I didn't want to come off as disrespectful (which I apparently did). I'm angry at this person for leaving his wife and kids behind, though. I knew them all very well and helped them out, with the exception of the in-laws.

But why don't people think about who is left behind? Don't they realize the pain?

For those of you who have attempted - why? I've been on medication for depression for over three years now, but don't understand suicide. I just don't.

My mother attempted suicide three years ago too. On Christmas day! So instead of attacking me for not understanding, give me insight as to why I should. Please!

I have a 19 year old male cousin that has a alcohol and drug addiction and he is slowly losing his mind. He talks to himself, laughs with himself, makes weird fascial expressions and he gets very aggresive as well. My Cousin, his sister had told me about his behavior, but I witnessed it first hand last night. He came home and was under the influence of something and he wanted to leave again but my aunt hid all of the car keys. My other cousin and I were already asleep, when he came storming in demanding our car keys. When we refused he grabbed my purse and started to pull on it to get my keys. when my other cousin and I started yelling and trying to pull the purse away he left. My aunt doesnt know what to do to help him. We need resources, help on what to do to help him. I did read that in order for him to go to rehab it has to court ordered because I know he won't go on his own. We need some advice quick before he ends up hurting himself or someone else........Thanks!
