Mental Health - December 2007

I am going to the doc on monday because for the last 4 months I have felt lousy. I will tell you the symptoms and whoever guessed right gets the best answer:

Tired all the time even after 10 hours of sleep
Get really sweaty at times even if I'm sitting still
Feel really nervous and even some panic attacks, which I have never had
Feel really hot at times when everyone is wearing sweaters and jackets around me and I'm wearing a t shirt
I can't gain weight, and instead seem to be slowly losing it no matter how much I eat
I am diabetic too

i just moved to fl from ct and ive been feeling downer than usual. i mean, i always get this way, since fourth grade, but now im just depressed.
when i realised how much i dont like fl, i felt better in knowing i can fix it but now that it's nearly fine, i don't have a reason to be upset and so that bothers me. i don't know what hole to fill.
what to do, what to do!?

by everyone.Some of my friend know about the abuse so they hit her alot.My sister is

I am a psychopath, after reading more in depth about it online theres no denying it anymore. I thought how i was acting was normal to a degree but i take it so far out to the extreme. I used to be happy and i don't know what happened or how i grew into the mindset i have today. I dont feel bad about anything i do and i never forget when somebody does something wrong to me. when they do, i sit down and plot all day when im not doing anything how to set things straight and get them back hardcore. I am 100% concerned about myself and only myself, but i figure maybe since i had admitted to myself i have a problem and accepted that it is a problem that maybe it might be possible for me to change it. Ive tried but with not much luck. Ive realized its me thats the problem and not everyone else, and i was wondering if its possible for a psychopath to change their way of thinking or if i'm just wasting my time. Thank you.

For example, if you were stalked and someone listened to everyone of your conversations and read every one of your e-mails and used all the information in your e-mail against you. Sent someone to physically harm you.

I have a major problem. I will try to make this short but there is a lot to tell. I was knocked off my moms insurance at the end of november because I finally turned 25. I have been under the doctors care since I was 18. I have severe depression, anxiety and may be bi polar... never really figured that out tho. I do not have insurance anymore so therefore there is no way for me to get my prescriptions filled. I have about a week and a half before my medicines will be gone. I take pexeva, lamictal and seroquel. I know going off them cold turket won't be a good idea but I am not sure how I can wean myself off of them by myself. I have no insurance so I have no one to go to:/ I have talked to the county and I can go to the emergency psychiatric before I am able to get on their insurance but they will only write a prescription. Yes I will have a prescription but I have no insurance and there is no way i can pay 400-500 dollars on these meds. I don't have the money. So what can I do?

She is belligerent and sometimes makes no sense.
She carries on as if she is bi-polar, but it goes beyond that.
There are behaivoral problems, and social issues when we go out.
And my dad doesnt want to nor does he like to go out in public with her.
So I am stuck with her, always and she has been this way all her life according to her mom.
We believe it ts genetic mental illness, we're not sure.

Last night I went to a Christmas party. I had lots of fun, was very happy all night. I didn't have many problems at school, it was an ordinary day. When I came home from the party, I even snuck a few chocolates, so I was very happy yesterday.

I woke up this morning, having no dreams (that I could remember), and I felt a lump in my throat. When I went into the shower, my back ached, my stomach felt weird and I had a hard time staying upright. My head sort of hurt, and my legs were wobbly. I suddenly felt miserable. At school, I pretty much had my head on my desk all day. I wasn't very energetic at all today.

No, I had no alcohol at all. Never had.

How long do long-term relationships last? How long does a relationship have to be to be considered long-term? At what age do people usually have their first long-term relationship? How many of those do people usually have per decade and per life?
I have a friend with borderline personality disorder. She has never been in a relationship that lasted longer than a year, and she is 37 years old.

It's a permanent solution to a tempary problem, if someone did it that was that unhappy, could you ever understand it? Would you think it was selfish?

He was single for 5 years prior to us meeting and I knew he looked at it before. One day I told him it made me feel like I was not good enough and that he needed something I could not provide. He told me that wasn't the case but that he would quit. He didn't look at it for the last 6 months (and yes I do know for sure he doesn't know how to clear it off) Tuesday I found traces of it on the computer I asked him about it and he told me that he couldn't lie to me and he told me the truth. Today he has admitted to me that he believes he has a problem but that he wants to get over it because he knows he will lose me if he doesn't . I was looking up thigns online for help but I'm trying to find stuff that I can help him with. He is a firm believer in God goes to bible studies and all so we have been praying about it but it seems to be somethign else I can do to help him.--Please no stupid answers- this is very rough for me and him as well and as of right now we dont wantprofessional service

It has something to do with having really good hearing. Its like where noises that the general population does not notice, drives you insane!! I heard of it once before, but can not for the life of me recall what it is. I think it is diagnosed with hearing sensitivity testing, usually by ear nose and throat docs. Any help is appreciated.

be sent off to their death on a fools errand and I am miffed about it! I am also psychologically switched on and now I know what is happening in our advanced society. We are being streamlined. Treated as a cash crop. Fed a load of sugar and then left to get on with it and abused if we fail. Well I am a failure and the amount of abuse that i have suffered over the years has made me resentful and very, very angry. Sure I had a lot to do with it but after the fact? In the first instance as an unknwing and uwittiing child I was sent off on the wrong road by a scared mother and a sister meber of the same gang. Women. I have nothing but problems from them. The U.K. is run by them. The Brit man adores and panders to almost there every wish. He has to. How else will he get his desert? Well I am down but not out and as long as I have breath in me I will fight this bull that has been served on me? I am not a child molestor or a Peadophile, neither am I a Homo and I will not lie down and take it

Please - - no definitions of 'oedipus complex'.

What should the attitude of a mother be toward a son with a super ego and suffering from oedipus complex ?
Will the mother be flattered or repelled ?
This particular son (single and in his mid forties) is very aggressive toward any male who takes an interest in his widowed mother. He virtually controls her with 'rules and permissions'.
What should she do ?

Please, let me say first that I have read the q's about addiction being an addiction. For MY question, for a paper I am writing, I am looking for people's responses with a REASON, not just an opinion...do you think addiction is a disease? If yes, why? Especially, if not, why not? Please be specific! Not looking for smartass answers to report

I was diagnosed with this a few months back and have been referred for Therapy, but it isn't until Jan as there is such a long waiting list. I don't have rituals I have obsessive thoughts. I am fine for a long time but then something can trigger my thoughts off again. I just wanted to know until my theraphy starts how can I block out the thoughts...besides keeping active which I find helps! Anyone else with this illness, any advice would be much apreciated.

I had difficult and unsupportive relationships with my parents, particularly with my father, as a child, which has lead to me being an anxious and poorly functioning adult. Despite being 32 and with a home and husband of my own, I am still bitter and angry at them and have regular periods of depression where I relate my reactions to current events back to how they treated me as a child.

How can I get past this and move forward with a positive attitude?
