Just wondering... ok, I'm not gonna lie. People hate me and I don't know why I'm really nice to people. I get tired of people treating me like crap and that they can just use me pretending to be my friend and then walk all over me and I get tired of my family treating me like crap too. I'm fat and I'm friendless.

he will not stop calling my job, when he is here we can not get him to go! he was in a mental facility a week ago and is taking meds; but I'm sure not in the right way. How do I go about getting him hospitalized for longer than a week?
What are our rights?

I'm in both one on one therepy and group therepy. I'm also taking Celexa (20mg/day).

When I started Celexa 4 months ago, I was having daily panic attacks and couldn't find the motivation to do ANYTHING productive.

I don't have daily panic attacks, but I'm still occasionally suicidal. I feel so hopeless and empty...therepy isn't working except to help my panic...but even my panic is coming back.

I sleep so much now and I even eat out of boredom...sometimes I just don't eat because I don't have the energy.

I'm losing interest in the things I used to enjoy and I'm beginning to fear the future.

I'm 21, don't drink, don't do illegal drugs, don't have sex (and no, I don't need to get laid), and have no interest in those things.

Why can't I just be normal? Why must I live my life day to day not knowing when I'm going to think death is an option?

I have been diagnosed with mild depression and an anxiety disorder. I have been perscribed medicine, but it made me very ill so I refuse to take it. However I am plagued with thoughts that my girlfriend cheats on me and I check behind her on everything to find signs. She has done everything in her power to show me that she is not cheating and does not want to be with anyone else. However I become extremely jealous sometimes and do outrageous things to try and find her lying. If she does not answer her phone, I continue to call it. Sometimes I shake unrepeatedly and cannot stop crying, just because she is not answering her phone. This is destroying our relationship and I do not know how to make these unfounded thoughts disappear. She loves me more than anything and does EVERYTHING to show she is not cheating. If someone looks at her I am overcome with jealousy and rage. Please help me. Is this part of my anxiety disorder? What can I do to make these thoughts go away?

I tend to get angry really easily and lose my temper quite often, and I have a bad attitude sometimes. Can anyone tell me how to change this or fix it? Thanks.

I'm trying to remember about something I saw years ago about mental disorders for the story I' m writing but am not sure if it actually is like this.

Not strong symptoms, but here they are:
This patient can most of the time live a normal life but there are sometimes when he sort of fades out from reality, starts to hallucinate of being another person totally different from who he is; mostly when he is alone.
Sometimes these ideas interfere with his life but he tries to block them.

Is there a name for this???

This past week, I've become aware of two individuals:

One is a mom of three (you know the type, PTA mom, super sweet, volunteers for everything, helps out at church) who's been caught carrying on a long-term clandestine affair under everyone's nose; the last person you'd expect to be caught up in anything so tawdry.

The other is a widower in his 70s who was married to the same woman for 40+ years and built up a successful business with her help. He has a substantial estate and has a very loving relationship with his adult children who have always included him in everything. Now he suddenly decided to remarry without a prenuptial agreement or any kind of legal document to let his children know where they stand. He won't listen to anybody because he says he "trusts" his fiancee.

Can depression cause this type of behavior? Is it a manifestation of some other type of mental illness? This all reminds me of that lady astronaut who became unhinged recently.

I used to be on Celexa and that worked great but my new insurance company will only pay for the generic brand and the side effects on that one were awful. With Celexa there were side effects too but they faded away and some completely went away. What have you tried that the side effects weren't bothersome and faded away after sometime?

Help! I am trying to do research on what the best non-pharmaceutical supplements/vitamins are for assistance with brain function/memory/cognitive function. I've found so many links that are just advertisements, and would love some help finding some legitimate resources.

I would feel awkward cause I am awkward and self -conscious in some situations and I would be embarrassed if it were to show through my facade of greatness I try to portray to the outside world
