Answer 1

What you're going through may just be a hormonal shift. Hormones are terrible on the nervous system. As the chemicals kick in to transform you into an adult, they also wreak havoc on your mental state. Your mouth being full of spittle is the cue for me that this isn't entirely mental... most mental problems are accompanied by a dry mouth if anything.

Talk to your parents. Seriously. They can get a simple test done which will determine if your problems are likely to be related to hormones. If it is, they can give you a simple pill for it. Ok, usually they give you birth control pills which are actually just hormone pills and can help regulate your hormones durring this difficult time. Sometimes this problem can last well into adulthood, though usually it only crops up around your menstruation. So Don't Wait.

Trust in your parents, let them know you're having problems, and let them know that you'd like to get tested to see if it's just hormonal so that you can feel better. That is the important thing.

EDIT:::: THAT'S why the salivation rang a bell. Hypoglycemia. Abnormally low blood sugar.. it's the opposite of having diabetes, pretty much. An ex of mine had hypoglycemia, and he'd have times where he'd have way too much spit... I KNEW I'd find it. You could have hypoglycemia.

Talk to your parents and get a doctor to check you out. Chances are, what you have isn't a mental defect at all. It could be any of a number of physical, and fixable, problems.

Answer 2

A good place to start would be to get a blood work up with your family Doctor to check your thyroid glands to make sure nothing physical is going on......... The other could be Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. You may want to rule out Physical illness first by a good work up with your Doctor. If you are neg. Your diet could be playing a major roll if you have a eating disorder, in which could open the door for CFS, and other related issues. Think about talking to your parents they may be more understanding than you think, and they really need to know how you are feeling, you don't have to feel this way and feel alone and like you are the only one, there are people who care and love you and will help. I had a eating disorder for 15 years and have been well for the past 3 years. It was only when I told some one that I got the help I needed...You are not alone and someone does care I do,,, Please Please talk to your parents don't let this do you what it done to me for 15 years. There is help

Answer 3

You already stated that you are depressed all the time. Most people who are depressed have the symptoms that you already stated that you have.

You also said that you used to have an eating disorder. You can still have the side effects of an eating disorder even if you are "cured". You should see your family physician. He/she might need to run some tests to see what is going on with you mentally and physically. And as far as the depression, you can see your school counselor as you might be too young to go on anti-depressants. Then again, your doctor might prescribe them for you if your depression is bad enough.

Answer 4

It's ok, what you are experiencing is common amongst teenagers. Your body is going through significant physiological changes. You are also undergoing significant social changes. All this can cause depression. Just know that you are not alone. Share how you are feeling by with your parents, or someone you can trust. Talk to a school counselor. Remember, the first step is always the hardest, but you will be very glad you took it.

Answer 5

Darl no-one on herecan give you a diagnosis! So you must work up the courage to get one of your folks to take you to the doctor before your fears of whatever is wrong escalates.
Be reasurred that the doctor will know & if he doesn't he'll probably refer you to a specialist.
Once it is out in the open you will probably be suprised to find that your parents will be understanding & & helpful for you.
I wish you all the best & I'll say a little prayer for you -smile-

Answer 6

the spittle thing could be related to stress or your previous disorder specially if yuove been friends with MIA (you probably know what i mean ) .
i probably would not describe your case as an acute depressive episode though i think some counseling would benefit you .

IS YOUR WEIGHT IN THE HEALTHY RANGE ?
I THINK THE FATIGUE AND LOW BLOOD PRESSURE MAYBE RELATED TO MALNUTRITION.

take it easy , your'e still too young for all that crap.

Answer 7

Seems like depression. Psychiatrists assume that everyone feel depressive in their life at least at once. This is not an abnormal situation, but if it goes worse it might be. Then don't panic, and before it goes worse see a psychiatrist. That will help you. I hope you get better soon.

Answer 8

Getup early in the morning, and go for walk. Do yoga, or do any type of exercise, which you will like.
Spare time for your friend, Try to laugh with your friend.
also spend time with your family, talk to them. They definitely help you to come out from this problem.
Too much Spittle is oral problem, so go to dentist.

Answer 9

See your doctor soon, as tests may be required. Take up Tai Chi classes, exercise daily, and eat healthily (get your doctor to review your diet while you are there; put it all on paper, so you don't forget anything).
