Answer 1

yes and more - i just hope you are not expereincing begining signs of physcosis . Is there anyway you can get counseling?

Life can really deal you a hard turn - you must learn to love yourself and put your past in another compartment and learn to depend on yourself and know you are strong and don't have to follow in your fathers foot steps

Answer 2

I'm no medical expert, but certainly a lot of those symptoms can be related to depression. Talk to a doctor about it, sounds like you've been through a rough time and would benefit from a professional listening ear. Just recently Medicare rules changed so that you can receive counselling under Medicare, so it is a lot more affordable than it used to be. And there is no shame in acknowledging you're a human and sometimes we can't cope with bottling all our problems up inside; get some help.

Answer 3

I have read some litterature about panic attacks. But they allways seem to have a more scientific approach and that is nothing I need in my struggle to survive those horrible panic attacks. This is a "hand on" and very practical book. I felt it was written to me. I am sure that you are going to feel the same.

Joe Barry writes exactly how I think. The examples are perfectly described. And the method is genius. I recommend this book and thanks Joe Barry for writing it. It changes your life

Answer 4

You've got every reason to suffer from depression, anxiety and panic attacks.

Those are all symptoms of something going on in your brain, something you can't control.

Go and see a doctor and tell him/her what you've told us.

Answer 5

With what you mentioned I might guess yes to all. I'm a former youth in care and have had extensive counselling. What might have helped me @ your age a group with people my own age. Where you can relate with others going through similar challenges. What helped me in life; had to cut out about 20 people from my life. People that were emotionally draining. Sounds like you need to start with dad.

Answer 6

It sounds like you have panic disorder in conjuction with post traumatic stress disorder. There are medications that can help to control your symptoms, and cognitive techniques to help you cope as well. I suggest you see a therapist to work out some of your anger and regain control of your life. You are not alone.
