I'm currently detoxing from an opiate addiction with the drug Suboxone. I was wondering if the Suboxone will block the effects of another medication called Xanax. I'm taking Clonipin now but was just wondering what the effects would have on the xanax. Would I still feel the effects of the xanax?

Guys I need your advice. I chat with a guy online. I have not exactly been honest with my identity and now its too hard to say anything to put it right. If I tell him who I am we will be finished and we both get a lot out of chatting to each other. Apart from my identity I am honest. What do you think I should do. Own up or stop chatting. Thanks

when you just want to be normal and fit in in society, have friends, be liked, admired, but you feel your percieved as different, unusual, odd and strange because of the disorder you have? (in my case BPD)

i worry i'm percieved as a person to be avoided, not to get involved with, who is viewed as weird or mad by the well adjusted majority in society.
i feel outcasted and ostracized by the normal adjusted majority of society....when all i want to do is fit in and 'belong' and be normal, have friends and be liked and accepted.

My psychiatrist prescribed me with Prosac (20mg) 3 days ago. Today I notice something different about myself. I just DONT THINK.

Im someone who thinks none stop. About the strangers I come across, about the ratty old bicycle by the streets etc...Sometimes my thoughts affects me so much. For once I felt my mind was blank today. I simply cant think or ponder much abt things.

I was just telling someone abt an experience of mine. NEVER in my whole entire life can I ever tel that story without shedding a tear. Yes, I didnt shed a single tear and in fact I told it like a matter-of-fact tone.

Is this the effect of Prosac? I dont understand, it has only been 3 days? I do not know if I like this feeling, sure I dun feel saddened anymore but I almost feel stupid and strange.

Unfortunately, the detox center was very pricey and we aren't made of money and I have NO insurance. I went in to detox from alcohol among some other harder drugs. When they released me, I was still withdrawing severely so I used and it did help. I just feel bad because it seems like the detox center was a waste of money. Should I go to rehab even if it's expensive and my Mom would have to dip into her retirement or should I try NA or AA? Any kind advice appreciated. I didn't choose to become an addict.

Dr Willy Notcutt, James Paget Hospital Great Yarmouth There seems to be some sort of Puritanism about the high from cannabis. And you have to ask yourself why. Here is somebody whose life is miserable. It is a miserable life. They are commonly depressed. If the cannabis were just to make them a little bit happier, a little bit mellow, so that they can relax more, so that life becomes a bit pleasanter, who are you or I to deny them that? After all, we widely use anti-depressants. We use drugs like Prozac at the drop of a hat, and yet these are mood-altering, mood-enhancing drugs. Why should cannabis be any different?


Do you think he is correct?
I do, I don't see why we are so puritan about this plant?

Im addicted to using the Internet. The only problem is, is that I work in an office and we're not supposed to use it.
I have been here for about 11 months and I've been told off for it about 6 times. I could lose my job and face major embaressment because I cant stop. We are allowed on the internet just not all day on certain sites, they havent blocked anything and it is so horrible knowing I will get told off as im so shy. I have the internet at home but it isnt as interesting as it is when im at work (I dont know why) Its like when im on the internet I dont care but when I turn it off I feel sacred and guilty. Im 17 and this is really really hard to deal with. I know it sounds crazy but I really cant stop and I want some advice. Please help!

I have been cutting myself for two months and i really like it!!When i feel depressed angry or sad i self cut.it happens almost every day!My best friend found out and she got so mad that she threatened to stop speaking to me because she doesn't want to be friends with someone who self cuts.The problem is that i'm not sure if i want to stop the truth is that i can't imagine my life without self cutting.I know it's very bad but the cuts aren't deep and there isn't blood at all so i don't see how it is dangerous!!I'm confused.I don't want to stop but on the other hand i'm afraid because my mom might see it and i won't have anything to tell her.Also i don't want to tell her that i have been doing that!What should i do?

Okay, well for starters, i am 17 years old, currently been given a year out from school due to many complications. I am seeing a psychologist, once a week but i still don't know what the problem is or how to sort it. I have separate bouts of uncontrollable anger, aggression and violence and severe depression and feeling almost suicidal. For reasons that i don't want to get into there is this guy who i would not hesitate in hospitalizing (for at least 6 months) the very next time i see him. I also have a girlfriend whom i have been with for just over eight months and we have always seemed really happy together, but right now i don't know whats going on, i just don't act the way i usually do when I'm around her, she's noticed it too and it's really worrying her and she's been worrying that I'm going to break up with her, which is the last thing i would ever want to do. I have told her that i love her and sure as hell meant it. But I'm not sure i do now. I just don't feel the same person.

Whenever I start feeling really depressed, or like I'm really ugly, I scratch really lightly on my left arm and left leg. I do it really lightly so I can feel the numbing sensaton for as long as possible. As soon as the skin turns bright red, I stop. It stops feeling good if I do it too long. I've been doing this for as long as I can remember, but they told us at school that if you harm yourself in any way, you're crazy. I can't be crazy, because my friend said that if you don't cut then your still ok.

(I only do it on my left arm and leg. I don't like to touch my other side for some reason. And I started only writing and typing with my left hand a little while ago)

Is it wrong or something?

Please refer to the other question I posted. Although I know I should start dating again, I find it extremely hard to do so. During the day with my friends and family I have fun and laugh and smile, but when Im alone all I can do is just think about the past. I dont think that a therapist can help me, and Im afraid to tell my friends or family for fear of the thought of them rejecting me too. Is this normal? Lately I have been thinking of suicide and it is becoming a more viable option everyday. The only thing that stops me is the fact that I am a christian, although this excuse is getting weaker by the day. What should I do, get a therapist or tell my friends or......what? I cant seem to think clearly anymore.

I know thta this is just another one of the strange phases in my life. a month ago before school started i had an ocd stage where a week i was super anxious i even had 1 panic attack. Well now, because of this phase life is just seeming to get weird and boring. Im losing interest in things. I think all of this is because sometimes when i think about 1 thing i get so scared its not even funny. I could scream reaaaly loud if i could. I think about life in general. and religion. How did everything happen. But mostly...eternity scares the crap out of me. How can life not end. Everything ends sometimes(well most). and then i think maybe it stops...but then how the CRAP could it stop. Thinking about what happens after i die and about life in general scares the CRAP out of me. Help me live a life without the fear. I just need to stop thinking about it. Any suggestions(and answer some of my questions)?

My situation:
For the last 3-4 years I have been really addicted to computers and computer games. I spent (on free days) 10 hrs per day and on school days 6 or so next to the computer playing games. I dont know what happened over the summer, maybe its the crappy situation in the game (its an MMORPG which got taken over by a crappy company) or maybe i grew up out of it but I lost all touch for the game, and games in general. This game was really addictive, i mean i would think about it basically all day and I would wake up really excited to play the game. Now, I wake up and I am really excited or nervous (i dont know how to explain) but there is no longer a reason and I feel like i developed an anxiety disorder or something. Right now I keep thinking as if I am going to go crazy and i dont feel right not playing games. But I also dont want to play them and end up in my 20's remembering my teen years as 1 video game.
