I know he loves me and we spend most of our time toghether, but about the trust? anyone?

My 15 year old daughter just came to live with me and she is not at all happy.

She throws tantrums to express her frustration and unhappiness.

I am very stressed out about this and don't really know how to handle it.

I have bad headaches and can not sleep or concentrate at work.

She pushes and hits me and then starts to cry and will not cooperate at all.

I try to go in the other room and she bangs on the door so much.

How should I handle the stress that she is causing me? I don't want to talk to her father because it will not help. He also lives in another state.

What patterns did you notice during the first few weeks of recovery on lexapro. I feel great one day then I feel like sleeping all of the next day. Does this get better? Am I expecting too much? I have been on 20mg of lexapro for 2 weeks and 1 day.

hello, im looking for some advise on a parent who is 70 yo and showing increased signs including nastyness, hostility,agression, threats, over active construction, such as climbing on a roof to refinish it and with no signs of fatigue instead an unbelieveable amount of energy. Sometimes the moods are more normal but many times its what i mentioned above. Also this person seems to be a story teller and wants to talk to anyone who gives him attention even when its totally unappropriate and usually inflates or makes up storys to get attention or get sympathy. When we suggest a doctor or a hospital he gets very nasty and defensive and its scary. Please offer any advise as this is driving my mom and I crazy and we are fearfull most of the time of his behavior, that it may be dangerous to others, Thank You, J.

I was having an anxiety attack when I was in the mental hospital & they rough-handled me, restrained me, threw me in the seclusion room, & gave me a shot & threatened to call the cops on me. I never knew the cops can be called on a mental health patient while in the hospital, & I also wonder since when was having an anxiety attack been a crime? They also called me attention-seeking & irrational, & I wasn't. & one of the nurses laughed @ me while experiencing the attack, & then when I got upset, they tried to say I was paranoid, & I wasn't. I KNOW that nurse was pointing & laughing @ me. Also, the doctor put me on antipsychotic meds (Seroquel), based on what "the nurses" reported about me, & I think they just didn't understand me. & every time I needed assistance, the nurses tried to avoid me. I felt I wasn't being treated fairly. & 1 dude my age (24) figured he had authority over me just because he worked there & figured I was crazy.

my son is twelve years old. my friend told me that before she started cutting herself she would cut up other things. my son has a lot of stuff going on and that is what he will do. make stab marks into the table cloth, carve into the walls with nails etc...has anyone else heard of that being an early warning sign of self mutilation?

The other week, I had an appointment with my doctor, and she told me that I might be bipolar. I hadn't told her a lot of the facts though.
But for the past few months, Ive felt miserable. Crying over nothing every night, and just laying in bed all day and not having any motivation. But then recently, about two days ago, everything changed. I wake up early, exercise, shower, try to eat healthier, and I have a smile on my face over nothing half the time. Its pretty weird because its a drastic change.

My hair is falling out, and I feel like I am sometimes in a hole and like I'll never come out. I cry all of the time. I am not complaining I am just getting this out. My dogs and my country music relax me. I used to be class clown-- not anymore. My Basketball performance is lowering. I have told my boyfriend... it helped. I would appreciate any kind of help. Thanks to Everybody who answers!!!

I have no idea what to expect and I'm really nervous. I'm going because of my constant obsessive worry- I'm tired of being worried sick all the time over everything- its no way to live. It took me forever to take this step and make this appointment, and now I'm having to fight the urge to call and cancel just because I'm worried about going. (Kind of ironic >< )

Any words of encouragement would be most appreciated. I know I need help with my worry but right now I'm starting to have illogical thoughts about why I should just stay home instead. x__x.

I have been dealing with depression for the last 10 years. It has escalated to cutting myself in the last few weeks. For some strange reason I have this urge to be in the hospital and taken care of. I've thought of taking pills just so I can go. Monday I go to my psychiatrist but I keep getting depressed for no reason. When I'm not hurting myself, I'm trying to find new ways to do so. I can't remember a time that I was truly happy. Obviously this isn't normal, but why do I feel this way?

... when you're about to give a presentation or to take an important exam?

I suffer from that ALL the time. My stomach feels weird and I'm overly excited, even when resting. It's also very easy to get me startled.
I had a baby last year and now my problem is a lot worse.

What is this and what to do?
