I woke up this morning (saturday) and couldn't remember the night before, or the day, I forgot the entire day (friday). I thought it was friday. After about a hour I wernt to sleep and woke hours later with my memory. Friday night I went to sleep at one am, woke at two am and went back to sleep, woke at three and went back to sleep, awoke at 7:30am without my memory of the previous day and went back to sleep and awoke at 11am. I wake usally at 5am weekdays and 9 on weekends. I go to sleep at 10pm weekdays and 1 am weekends. I didn't drink or use any mind altering drugs. What's wrong with me?

I suffer from depression, have been prescribed anti-depressants from my doctor. I'm just wondering how the people closest to me *(friends family, bf) can understand this illness, and how they can cope. I have come to know that alot of people truly don't understand what it feels like to always feel down or worthless, when things in life are going great. I have been to several counselors in my life and many try to figure out what bad things may be causing this, they don't think about what is really going on (with hormones, genetic genes) I'd like all points of view on this matter...

I'm feeling overwhelming depression right now and I can't cope. I had an appointment with a psychiatrist a month ago and they gave me a prescription for anti-depressants, but after I researched the drug, I decided not to take it. I have another appointment in two weeks, at which point I was going to request a prescription for a different drug. The problem is I don't think I can wait that long. I'm feeling overwhelmed by the depression, so would it be inappopriate to go to a hospital and ask if they can give me something now?

My partner is depressed. Everytime we get into an argument, she expresses her feelings and then most likely this will lead to her feelings of worthlessness and wanting to hurt herself. Now I love her deeply, and I want her to get better. And I feel the only way our relationship can work is if she gets better. Personally, I don't think depressed people should be in relationships, but I didn't realize that she was at first, and here I am..

She already has an appointment with a Psychiatrist in a couple weeks (so far away because Kaiser Permanente is the most insenstive place ever), so that won't answer my question. My question is, what are you supposed to do when your partner won't listen to you during depressive bouts? I try to be there for and tell her it's going to be ok. Is there really much more I can do until her appointment?

For example unemployment, poverty, or having to deal with a disease. If you have a disease that is uncurable I can imagine that you become chronically depressed.

Is if ever just "logical" to be depressed for a long itme?

Every morning when I get up, there is this big burning round ball thingie on the horizon. Sometimes it starts out kinda orange, but then it raises up into the sky, turns all yellow, and then whenever I go outside, it's still there above me, like it's watching me or something. Freakin' me out, man! And it makes things around here really hot too. Kinda rude, ya know, because then I gotta go turn on the air conditioner and that gets expensive.

But then later in the day it starts to sink lower and lower, gets kinda orange again, until finally it disappears beyond the horizon. Then's it gets all dark and creepy outside and crickets start to chirp. What the heck was that big 'ol orange-yellow thingie? And where does it go when it gets dark? It sure is persistent though because it seems to come back EVERY frickin' DAY! Harumph.... I tried throwing a rock at it, but it was too far away. Damn...I guess it will always remain a mystery, huh...

This is my 13th year of teaching. Here it is, late October, and I STILL haven't managed to learn everyone's name. This has never happened before. I'm not having problems with any other part of my memory (that I know of). I'm 39 years old -- could this just be part of the aging process? Or something scary, like early-onset Alzheimer's?

I just to also freak out about dieing when I was younger, but now I am resurred that I'm going to heaven. You get in those moments where you feel like you wouldn't mind dieing, whether its because your life sucks at that point in time or because of any other reason. But when you get to a point in time that you could die, suddenly you dont's want to. For me, I've always hated flying. It scares me to death (not really lol). When we experience terbulance, i always freak out and sit in my chair so still and pray to God I won't die. Why is it that we think we're ready, but sometimes we never are?

So, are you afraid to die?

Any life changing moments?

What's your opinion?

Usually I am a cheerful person. Im quite a person of extremes in all aspects. Meaning, when Im happy -Im really happy, when Im angry -Im really angry etc. Generally as I said Im cheerful, but sometimes I have sudden outburts of aggression or depression and pessimism. I have common moodswings, for e.g I might force myself to goto a public place and suddenly lose all my motivation and ask 'What the *** I came here for' and leave depleted and empty handed. E.g When I decide to go shopping with my mother, she somehow depletes all my energy to a point when I enter the shop doors with her and then say "I dont wanna go here, lets leave" and I leave just like that! Perhaps the problem is not me, but her. Because if I go places with my friends, even the dreaded shops, Im fine and happy but I lack motivation to decide or try on or take action.
Commonly I have these periods that my life is worthless and I have no ambitions. Whats wrong with me?
