more often than not antidepressants are like cocaine or Methamphetamine. to take a pill prescribed by a doctor is no different than drinking a bottle of whiskey or other alcholic beverage. All of it, changes the mental thinking of a persons mind. Sometimes there are medical benefits no matter what you take.

Everytime I have a lot of fun, and it's over, I get depressed. It's really annoying, because my life is always full of fun events. I never have any fun. Anyone else feel the same? Can anyone help me get out of this bad habit? I really need someone to help, please, because I just came back from camping, and it was soooooo fun. But now I'm back at my boring home, and I feel really depressed=[

Please please tell me how I can feel better. Thanks!

I have panic disorder, and I know one of the common fears is that you're going crazy. I'm having light spots in my vision, and I did talk to a psychiatrist about them, and he told me I should get my eyes checked, so I'm going to do that. My question is, how do you get over your fear of going crazy?

Also, if you can help with this one:I'm also very anxious about being left alone, even if I'm the only one awake and there's other people there (freaks me out to be the only one awake also)

thanks!

I don't get much strength from family and friends.
(Also, I'm not religious, so don't tell me to pray to gods or something.)

What should I do?

I even cancel appointments or drive 10 miles out of my way so that I dont have to cross a bridge or drive in the rain. I have talked to my doctor and I don't want to pop pills to get relief. Any natural ideas?

everything - the supermarket, the bank, work, you name it & she'll complain about it even going so far as to submit complaints letters every week about something or t'other. Is it an illness of something cos I'm losing patience.

Somone was "rude" to her at her bank the other month. So she submitted a complaint letter to the bank, head office and chief executive. she didn't like the response so now she's going to the Ombudsman or something. But she does this for each and every person she complains about. Should there be something put in place to stop serial complainers who waste time and resources ....?

I will never know what I've caused after I'm gone. I'm a extremely compulsive person. However, I'm really having a difficult time fighting the guilt. Normally, I wouldn't think about something this long. I would have not put this much though into it. I've convinced myself that I haven't hurt anyone so what's the harm. My doctor has planted in my head that people will be hurt and angered over what I've done. She admitted that she would be angry too. I'm so frustrated and tired. I'm not that heartless, but I'm so tired with continuing surgeries and the pain that comes after. I just want it to stop. I'm not asking for people to forgive me, but I just want to know if the anger ever go away.

What must a discreet bisexual (who is more attracted to men than women) do to face life at his age of 30 because he is apprehensive on having a relationship with a girl because of this male attraction tendency. This is attributed to his child history of having a father who abandoned him at a young age and male family friends who exploited him discreetly as a child. He looks straight but a gay person would likely smell him to be gay because he rarely goes out with women on dates and prefers to be alone and has no interest in sports activities at all which men usually talk about. right now, he is into gay porn and stuff and had more encounters with men than women but the sad thing is, after doing the "thing" with a guy or even self-gratification such as mastur---n, he feels the release and is guilty of doing such and thinks he would never be happy with a homo relationship, i mean its just a libido release. pls help him face the pressure of being married or coping with guilt feelings.thnx

This may sound silly as everyone has fears of something but mine is really getting me down. I am scared stupid by house spiders. I think it's the way they move so quick and their legs that scare me. The thing is, it's getting to the point where I'm scared of being at home alone incase I see one, I'm having disturbing nightmares about them being in every room of my house and I have to get my boyfriend to check the room before I can settle down to sleep. It is a fear that just seems to get worse and it's getting me down. Is there anything I can do to try and cure this or maybe even to try and see spiders in more of a positive way? Please help me! Thank you.

I am a 22 year old college student getting good grades, but I am extremely depressed...I have no connections to my family, and I rarely talk to them. They pretty much gave up on telling me to stop using.I smoke weed everyday, drink 4 times a week, and use hard drugs several times a month...it's been going on for about 4 years now. I am anxious and feel guilty about a lot of things (like about my parents) I am seeing a therapist but I feel like it isn't really helping much...what should I do?

Just wondering but when i, or anyone else for that matter, post something about themselves doing some sort of self harm, and you say

"get help, please dont do it again"

really care, i mean do you really care if we get help or not?
