My daughter currently sees a clinical psychologist. The CAMHS service have now decided she needs to see a psychiatrist as well. Why does she need to see both, she has a pervasive development disorder so neither is going to cure her.

My friend acting very weird. Paranoid thoughts. I am certain that Ive witnessed several episodes in the last 3 days. Very worried he will hurt himself or someone else. Ive talked to mental health proffesionals and they recommend that they send a Crisis Assessment Team with police to his house because its necessary due to him having weapons.
Whats should I do? I dont want to lose his trust. No stupid answers please.

My cousin Bros is Mentally unstable,he keeps on harming his Mother and specially Father. He had damaged all the household Appliance,TV, Window Glasses etc. he even tried an attempt to kill himself. His Parents cannot keep him in house, as its too risky for his parents as they are old above 60. If anyone can tell me a good Mental hospital, Rehabilitation in Mumbai, Pune where he can get proper treatment as well some constractive Activities involving his full time. I think he will benefited.

Since some people commit suicide to escape their agonising depression, does anyone feel glad that the person has finally found peace? Surely the person who committed suicide doesn't want their mental pain to spread to others.

I'm wondering if anyone's actually felt relieved for them?

yesterday was hell, i had a huge mental breakdown and now i cannot not focus on school or even getting some sleep! I was with my cousins and they were really ticking me off like they would say how perfect their life is and compare it to my dad who drinks and doesn't do sh*t but even though i don't get along wiht my dad, i hate it when people bring him up and then they said my mom was "selfish" for going to missouri to help her parents that are diagnosed with alzheimer's disease but thats dumb because she is there to help her own parents, then they start acting like smartasses and try to beat me in arguements like they know my life or something, so i completely snapped and screamed and started to cry and have a huge breakdown, i had all this stress inside me and i just let it all out. I miss my mom a lot and no one understands me and people are just pissing me off. please help or give me advice, i'm worried because i'm only 14 and already get stressed and i don't want to get worse.

When someone says I'm worthless or cannot do something, or points out my past mistakes, how can I prevent it from getting to me and keep doing my best and not let thoughts of doubt impede my performance?

I'm not sure why I keep making bad choices over and over again. Its like i've been in a rut for several years now and I just cant seem to get out of it. Most of the time I have a positive upbeat outlook, but then there are days like today where I barely can find strength to make it through.

I feel like I'm always having to give up my dreams and my future for others in my family because in a sense I always have to come to their rescue for something or another. I'm not trying to complain about it... it just gets hard sometimes.

And I keep making the same wrong decisions with friendships and the way I handle things.... I feel like i'm losing everything and everyone dear to me because I just cant think clearly right now....

Any advice on how I can change my life positively?

I have Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Bipolar. I currently hold a masters degree in sociology and have a job as case manager at a community mental health center. I am well qualified for this work, however, my mental illness makes it difficult to function. I cannot take constructive criticism, have trouble concentrating, and when I get really stressed I cut myself and become suicidal. I am in counseling and am on meds. but I still have a hard time functioning. I know it is hard to get disability with a lot of education behind you. I really don't want to do this. I have always had problems with employment because of my mental health problems.

I'm 22, good job, healthy, i have an overall good life imo.
First i just wanna say im straight
I kinda have a problem getting very attached to the ladies, i dont do this for attention or anything because i never tell anyone but when i loose a girl i care about (which is usually every girl i date because i kinda get attached fast) i feel like sh*t and i drink alot and just feel worthless.., for instance this girl i dated for about 2 months broke up with me because she still cared for her ex, and ive literitly been drunk for almost the entire week, i think one day i was sober and that was christmas morning. My drinking continued later that night after my family left. But when im with a girl im completely opposit, im fun to be around, i dont drink at all, im happy....whats wrong with me? I dont get it...

a friend complains about his life all the time, but he never takes any efforts to change. he doesnt try to get a job, or meet with more friends. I dont know what his problem is. I care about him, so anyone can give me some idea about why he has such contradictions?

http://www.webmd.com/mental-health/tc/munchausen-syndrome-by-proxy-topic-overview

What was involved? I'm asking because a family member was recently diagnosed with ADHD, but not before his mother convinced a different psychiatrist that he was bipolar. After that, she went back to the second psychiatrist and convinced him that the boy has Tourettes too (which he does not.) Is it possible she has Munchausen syndrome by proxy?

I have never been really cheery but recently i have been worse than normal. Yesterday i asked a girl i really liked out and she said no. Rejection seems to be happening to me so much from women of late and im fearing its affecting me mentally. I thought it was just a build up of negative thoughts.


Then i found out today that a number of people have blocked me off of their msn messenger and just now i feel very alone. I have a great family and some really close friends but i dont know how many more hits my confidence can take.

I dont know what i should do. I have no real ambitions currently. Im on holiday from university and i just feel really low.
Obviously my university course is a goal but that is long-term. right now i have no short term goals.

Is it natural for constant rejection to affect someone in this way or is there something more to it?

I keep having unwanted thoughts, like what would happen if I hurt someone I love and it turned out fatal. I am a good person, with not intent at all of hurting anyone. This sounds totally stupid but I'm scared the devil is going to posess me. Am I going to hell? Can I be saved? What should I do?
