someone told me that if i commit suicide, that it is a sin and i won't go to heaven. that can't be true, my suicide desires are caused by mental illness. illness is not a sin, if it was, then anybody that dies of an illness would be a sinner and not go to heaven, so therefore, when i die, i can go to heaven

Years ago, I never used to hear things before I go to sleep. I started hearing some things about a few years ago, and now, they're really frequent. It ranges from sounds like doors or stomping to people talking, laughing, or yelling. Sometimes, when they're voices, they talk about me, but not actually to me. Is this normal? None of this used to happen at all.

Ok I am almost 14 I have been always feeling really sad since I was in the beginning of 6th grade my dad was in a car accident when It wuz in the middle of the summer that just passed, which made my sadness worse, I am homeschooled only get out when I go to the dentist or doctor which my mom tries to get the oppointments on the same day. I just stopped self harming because my mother found out and she wasn't really sad just like really angry. She grabbed me by my shirt and told me if she ever saw it again that was the last straw. When I feel sad I don't cry because I was told don't cry its just for people who can'thandel thier emotions. Sometimes when no one is looking I cry but usually I try and hold my tears back. I tried to kill myself once b4 but my friend stopped me he lives like an hour away from my house now cuz he moved. I always usually stay in bed all day, thats like 96% of the time. I don't know who I should go to not my sister I don't trust her my parents uh no. And the....

My Mother died on Aug. 1 this year. I can't seem to get over it. I take Xanax for this plus Lexapro. I seem to do good one day and the next I'm a mess. Sometimes I feel like I'm fighting my self from going over the brink. Don't know how else to explain that. Now, I find myself not calling my sisters like I always did. They keep calling to check on me I think. I just don't want to be around anyone ever. And that's hard when you have a husband and kids. I just don't feel like myself and I'm afraid I'll never be the same again. Such a big part of my life is gone forever. Should I tell my doctor when I go back on Monday that unless I have the Xanax, I STILL can't cope? Does it normally take this long? I keep thinking that he isn't going to let me take these meds very long. Don't know. Never took these before. Am I not doing something right? And I feel like it's all exploding again with the holidays coming and no Mother. Advice?

I am getting ready to start taking Paxil today, has it worked for you? I was taking Lexapro, but had to switch to something else due to the expense of the Lexapro...feedback on Paxil would be great!!!

Someone I know has been raped. She is 15. She is now suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, (PTSD), a condition that leaves her with insominia, terrifying flashbacks, insecurity and depression. She has recently begun to cut herself. In an ideal situation, she would have informed her parents. This is impossible, for very real reasons, which I can't discuss, but its really not an option. Now the only people she can turn to are her school friends, and we don't really know what to do. She needs treatment for the PTSD, so what is the best way of going about this? Confidentiality is paramount. Can she go to her gp in confidence? Can she get free treatment for PSTD (treatment would involve cognitive behavioural therapy and possible antidepressants, although she is keen to avoid drugs) on the NHS, and can it be done without informing her parents? Please help, her life is in pieces.

7 weeks ago I lost my friend to a car accident. I missed her funeral because I found out 3 weeks later 3 days after her funeral. On Tuesday another one of my friend's mom died of cancer. Her mom and I were pretty close too. These 2friends never knew each other and their only connection is me. I now feel like the Grim Reaper or the barer of bad luck because I lost 2 people in my life in 2 months.
While I was joking around with a co worker to try and cheer up the whole death comes in 3's joke came up and now I'm spooked. Like someone else in my life is going to die soon. how do I cope with this? I'm starting to feel like I inflict death on people or something.

He has driven the roads for more than 60 years -- is thoroughly independent -- has asked no one for help -- he's a proud do it yourself kind of man -- a Veteran -- a man who melts when he holds his grandbabies. But his driving has declined, we're not safe to ride with him, and were not safe if his car is coming toward us. He's getting lost in the town where he's live and driven his whole adult life. We are sad. We know there will be bouts of anger in him, and hurt in his eyes. He will be feeling a lack of respect from his family he has raised and given his all for.
How do we lovingly and respectfully make this happen?
How do we ease his pain while enforcing his safety?

I am not passionate about making music. I like some music, but I don't feel musically inclined or creative. I am just interested in the rewards that come with being a rockstar. I am aware that there are some drawbacks, but I want the rewards really badly.
In order for me to be a rockstar, I would have to be a poseur. I would have to assume the rockstar image in order to be accepted and fit in. I really just want the attention from girls and the money and the lifestyle of a rockstar. I am not a great musician and I don't feel like there are melodies in my head waiting to pop out. Stereotypically, I play the guitar. I am willing to sacrifice my true self for the rewards of being a rockstar.
I feel like I have lost who I truly am in my obsession with becoming a rockstar. I have invested so much time and energy in this that I feel like I can't turn back, even though I'm not passionate about it.
What do you think will be the end result of this? I am serious. Is this a good idea? Advice?

Do you think that if you were dating someone 5 years and you broke up with them and you claimed that you really loved the person you were with very much.....do you think that it's really truly possible to;

Meet someone on a cell phone through the internet on a text messaging service....text them for two month.....meet them only 3 weeks ago from today in person and say that you have moved on, over it, and happy with this new girl. Plus say that you love them already and are going to marry her soon and move her in with you? This meaning that you could get over your ex you supposedly loved even though you say you don't now in just knowing someone personally for 3 weeks????

I'm thinking I might depressed, because sometimes I just get so sad...and I just sit around, and sometimes when my nana comes over she's says I look like I'm going to cry. Sometimes I feel like that, for example when I come home from school I just feel like crying. I don't know why though..I mean I have friends and we laugh and talk at school...so maybe I'm not depressed? But I think I started feeling this way when I found out my mom was having another baby(now I have 2 brothers) I got really sad and cried, and I didn't talk to my mom for 4 days, I was so mad at her! Maybe I feel this way because maybe I feel that my parents don't love me as much any more, and I told them that but they said they love us all them same, but it just dosen't feel that way. And also my 6 year brother and I fight A LOT, sometimes I can't wait untill I move out. Oh by the way I'm 14, please help I would apperciate it so much.

i'm sooo bored that i have developed depression. i can't sleep at night, so i sleep in during the morning, i get tired easily and i feel very sad and lonely. my friends have gone their seperate ways to university, so i have no one to hang with. currently i'm looking for a job and have an interview this monday so fingers crossed i get it so i can earn some cash and join up a dancing class, gym or martial art to occupy my time. i was thinking of doing voluntary work or help at a rest home or hospital because i know if i put in my energy to help other people, i will appreciate my own life and see how lucky i am compared to their situation. the problem is, i don't know where to sign up to get these jobs, that will give me my much needed endorphins. i am occupying time to my future, i write poems and stories and come up with entrepreneual ideas if not searching for a job. is there anything to do to stop my depressed/bored/lonely state of mind? i refuse to waste my health and $ drinking

This happens to me quiet often after about ten every night.
I will be sitting in my bed talking on the phone to my boyfriend and I will just black out.
I don't come too sometimes for minutes or hours.
Sometimes he can wake me up though after it happens by yelling or pushing buttons.
This is really starting to unnerve me because this happens even when I am not tired.
Help or explanations anyone?

I had an arguement with my husband and he told me that i need help and I have bi-polar. Now, thats not the first time someone has told me that. A couple of my ex boyfriends has said the same thing. I always thought they were just saying that to piss me off and just basically labeling all women like that, But since my husband is now calling me that I want to know if I might have some signs.
