about a year ago i went through alot from living with an alchohalic father and a mom who was always working, i held in so many emotions until i felt emotionaly numb. about 4 months after the divorce i had horrible panic attacks and anxiety with deppression and was put on zoloft. it stopped the panic attacks and the feeling of unreality. but now i am still not feeling any type of emotion accept laughter with friends and stuff like that. but i dont even see people as individuals with feelings or value. dont get me wrong i know that they have value but i just dont feel it. when ever i say something realy mean i dont feel any remorse for others not because im a jerk but because its like i see these people as objects and not people. even with my family and friends i know that theres love and caring there but i dont feel it. i am also only 15 years old and i dont have a male role model in my life my mom is getting me into a psychiatrist do you think this will help me deal with my issues and

One day at a time. One moment at a time. Let your doctor help you. Cal the doctor if you need to. My daughter is only now realising that counseling is really what she needs, her story is not so different from your own, only she is 19 now.

I do think that it will help. I went threw something like this last summer but it wasn't exactly the same. I basically lost my family because of a friend. My parents didn't like my new friend but i didn't want to believe their reasons for not liking them. Also my friend and I sort of went threw a lot. It seemed that i was the only person that could be there for her. I was always in my room and didn't eat very much. My parents kept telling me all of this was happening because of my friend. That was true but it wasn't just that. I felt that they didn't want me to be happy. I pushed them away and started to disobey them. My mom signed me up for a psychiatrist and made me go. I didn't want to go because i didn't want to talk to a stranger. I didn't think the psychiatrist knew how to help me. She did eventually help a little. I was able to talk and tell someone what i felt. I didn't work all the way though cuz i stopped going. Some psychiatrist are really good and know how to help. Just give it a try. If the one your mom sends you doesn't work there are more out there that hopefully can.

Might i suggest you see a therapist or a psychologist instead of the psychiatrist these two profession focus more on the emotion than does the psychiatrist who focuses is on physical disorders of the brain A good therapist can help you to work through your issues and put them behind you check out the support groups like alonon that are out there for children of alcoholics

All non-invasive psych drugs are designed to help you through a short period of pain/depression, until you feel you can cope on your own. In short - you need to get off the zoloft and now is obviously the time. You're ready to start dealing with your emotions again and your brain needs to get back to regulating it's own seratonin levels.
Be strong and know that it won't be easy coming off at first. Until your brain starts regulating again you might feel a bit depressed. But you WILL start feeling again, and that's the most important thing.

hell no! I saw a physcritrist and I went through more then you did and it realy didn't help he just kept repeating what I said and it was so damb irritating that I stopped seeing him I got involved with a church and had my religion boasted and I am now feeling much better about my self and I care more about people because, I have Christ Jesus in my life and with him life is as easy as you want it to be without him you are always going to feel depressed and you never will improve jeepers I was so bad that I was up on the 4th floor and they released me because, I realized that was not going to help it just ruins me when I want to go live in another country that follows you dude do not see a phychiatrist or your life is ****** but, if you want contact with your family and a better relationship with people I think you should because, I have no contact with my family and every single day I lose my friends and I just cant stand it no more I lived on the street no one realy cares about me I think I need to go and see a phyciatrist but, get a different one because, I need one that will help me.

hi unknown, (everyone is someone ,whether or not they know it)
the first thing you must accept is that you are not at fault, it sounds like your parent no matter how hard they work bills pile up and fights ensue,this issue they must seek help also.I would ask your doctor to wean you off your your meds , you are young and like most teenage problems will pass ,see others as you would like to be seen and valued.with out a role model you have the chance to mold your own destiny( all it takes is to know the difference between right and wrong the choice is yours) yes i think you could use some couch time hell we all could, good luck

Talk to your doctor and therapist.

Also, find Al-aTeen or Al-Anon meetings in your area. They are a wonderful support for family and friends of alcoholics. You can also go to regular AA meetings, as long as they are designated "open" meetings. You need support. There are these type of meetings EVERYWHERE. Call the AA hotline and talk to someone and tell them you need support. They will be glad to help.
