Mental Health - September 2007

depression and anxiety is emotionally triggered, the anxiety comes from not dealing with your repressed feelings. what if when you go to a therapist you cant express yourself but pretend and act out just to get through the session as you find the session very stressfull anyway, and cant trust them or anyone?

I have an anxiety disorder

This is really embarassing but

i used to masterbate and watch porn almost everyday for years

it seemed to help release the stress i had with my anxiety and other stuff at the end of the day

iv been trying to stop on and off for a while

i went cold turkey and stopped all of the sudden

its been a week since i stopped

but anyways its getting tempting again

my anxiety is very bad when it comes to girls

i dont know if this has to do with all the years of watching porn and masterbating

i dont know what to do

im a teenager and its very tempting

Can porn and masterbation cause Phychological effects

like affect my anxiety and make it worse
and add more shyness

but i have had an anxiety disorder way before all this

and i wonder if my bad habit has made it worse

[I Hope everyone answers respectfully and be mature about the matter]

Thanks

TIs claim that there are 1000s of people in the U.S. and around the world who are targeted by technology which monitors, tracks, and disrupts their daily lives 24/7, remotely. I have personally seen and heard both their physical evidence and their recorded evidence in support of their claims. Most people in the general public simply write these TIs off as nut cases. I don't think that they are. I think there is something to what they say is occurring. Even if they are mentally unstable, don't we as a society have some kind of moral obligation to seriously research this matter and find out "exactly" what is going on with all these folks. Very nearly all of them, world wide, suffer the same effects and symptoms. If its just mental illness and delusional, how can that be? Can the mental health community come up with some kind of case history that could support the mental illiness hypotheses. Are, is it just safer to simply ignore these people? Maybe there's a cover-up after all.

I have always wanted to be a pastor, but have always struggled with 'am I good enough' and 'money for my family and future'. So here I set, with debt, a nice house, a decent job that I don't like and have a hard time giving time to. I have two awsesome kids. My wife is seriously depressed after the second child and not doing well in many areas. I am extremely committed to the marriage. It seems that ever year my life gets worse and I attribute it to my not making the decision to go into ministry. My father was a pastor. I have been to counseling, psyciatrists, small groups, etc. Lately, especially at work, it seems that all relationships that I make fail miserabley. If you asked people closed to me, they would say I am great. I don't like hobbies, sports, TV. All I do is think... think.... think... I feel that I am the only person this way. Being a strong Christian makes is 100x harder because 'God is supposed to be enough'.
All I want to do is sleep and be alone.

For the past couple years I have been having weird mood swings. Sometimes I act normal and act like myself but other times it just hits me and I become very sad and feel like doing nothing. I thought that it was gone but it keeps on coming back. I'm preety sure im not bipolar because I'm never really hyper but I'm just not sure what's wrong with me.

My mom has been diagnosed with anxiety and OCD, and while I support her and have supported her for the longest time, she seems to be using it as an excuse for everything now.

I'm a senior in high school, yet she freaks out even if I want to sleep over at a friends house because she worries about all the possibilities of "bad" things that could happen.

I can't deal with it anymore. I consider myself a happy, stable, intelligent girl and when I'm around my mom she ruins everything. She fills me with anxiousness and anxiety...and I want to go out and spend time with my friends so I can have some time away from her. But even when we were at the mall, she followed me and my friends around. I'm 17.
She's worried about me driving and getting my licence, but I have to because I'm going to college/university next year hopefully, so my dad had to help me get it in secret.

Depression: More disabling than many other dis-eases
Over 7M cases of severe depression in England
Over 800,000 usa soldiers have severe PTSD
Waiting period, for help, is getting l-o-n-g-er,
as the line up is getting longer lately.

Over 25% of America is diagnosed with mental illness,
and experts fear another 30% has it, but not diagnosed yet.

When will ppl realize depression = oppression,
and oppression is of the devil(law) in the Bible?

Simple solution is: flush law as dung, depression gone.
Mean while, flax seed oil capsules help, no side effects.

Is losing your memory something that only happens to people in their 60's or over? At what age does this begin? Have any of you started to notice that you can't remember things as well, even at age 40?

I've been depressed a lot the past two days. Things haven't been working out and I've had to do nothing but work lately. I guess there is a reason for it, but what's the best way to cure it. I can't laugh, I can't have fun, and I don't even feel like I want to go on this zoo trip that my boyfriend planned for us anymore (thought that could be because he invited another girl to make her feel better I'm not really sure). It's gotten to the point where I don't even really want to eat even though my brain says eat. What should I do to make myself better when I feel like I don't want to really feel better? Hopefully that made sense.

I have obsessive compulsive disorder, and often get fired for checking things many times. what kind of job do you think is suitable for me? If you have obsessive compulsive disorder what your symptoms? what kind of job you have?

I have many different symptoms. I tends to keep on checking things over and over again. For example, I keep on checking the door lock and light switch over and over again to see if it locked properly, so that I get a right feeling that it closed properly.

.............are going absolutely up the wall. I have no control over any of my emotions anymore and just swing from 1 extreme to the other. What can i do to help stop it?
My doctor just gives me a pat on the back and a smile when i try to explain, and when i eventually get another appointment at the surgery, it is always a day i feel good about everything. Somedays i just really, to put it bluntly, cannot be ar*ed. Everything is quite sh*t. I have had some major upheavals in my life in the recent months though and i know this is probably to blame but i really do not want anti depressants they seem to chuck at everyone. What alternative options are there?

Sometimes without any reasons or any problems i get moody. I was curious is that something wrong with me or is it just normal for a teenager to have that emotions quite frequent in a week or even months. I know that having these emotion give made me no appetite for foods and even skip my meals. I wonder is that something wrong with me or just normal for a human beings. I really need guidance.

If you are positive person, usually happy, upbeat and outgoing, always looking for the good in a situation.... how do you keep yourself that way? I'm struggling to be more positive and stop complaining. I find myself contantly complaining. I know part of it is my personality but part of it can be controlled. I want to have a positive outlook and not open my mouth at every little thing there is to complain about.

Any tips and advice I would appreciate!

I think it must be because this documentary I saw the other night said that personalities are hereditary, and we start to develop personalities when we're in the womb.

But if this gene isn't passed on to you, but you grow up with someone who has OCD that's mild - moderate and undiagnosed, can it make you develop OCD more easily?
