Answer 1

These types of thoughts are common when someone has depression, so in a sort of odd way, you actually have quite normal thoughts and feelings for someone who is depressed. You probably fit into the category of low-level depression called dysthymia, where people are not depressed enough to seek help, but the problems are bad enough that they affect many aspects of a person's life. You might consider visiting a family doctor to see about a prescription for an antidepressant. You might be surprised how quickly these sort of thoughts disappear.

I had the same problem and i finally went to the doctor after I seriously considered killing someone in a grocery store because their cart bumped into my cart. I walked straight out of the store without my groceries because i was worried that i might actually do more than think about it. The whole experience was so scary that i couldn't ignore the situation any more. The doc put me on a combo of wellbutrin and prozac, and i quit having dark thoughts, and my mood and energy level both improved substantially.

I was exactly like that until I was 23, and I tried psyche meds. I was a guinea pig for five years and the only thing that helped me was Paxil...but Paxil is one of the riskiest drugs to take. It will completely turn your head around and you'll be happy and lively and think you're cured and never need to take the pill again...and then you stop taking it because it's unnecessary and kill yourself on the second day of going cold turkey. Not out of depression. It will just pop into your head and seem like the thing to do. It was a common occurence until a few years ago when a proper weaning program was developed. It's a long hard road and I don't recommend it. The best thing to do is to find other people like you (there are MANY, trust me. You are far from alone) and work it out in a kind of "We're Psychopaths" support group. If you don't, you may find yourself doing it anyway, only it'll be in prison. Like me. I have my head on straight now, but it would've been easier if I'd talked to somebody about it before. And I don't mean a psychiatrist. They won't believe you and give lousy advice, if they give any at all. They will either humor or medicate you. Oh, and this is for Hepette: you need to look up the word "definitely" and memorize how to spell it before you laugh at anyone else's spelling. Yes, his spelling is atrocious but it's probably because he's desperate and typing at the speed of light.

As a biologist I would encourage you to stop doing all drugs - they really fry your brain and can agument problems I am sure.

Your 19 and the 3rd person veiw, and cant control thoughts, makes me thing of sschizophrenia (there are MANY forms ). have you been checked for biological brain disorders? Do they run in your family? I ask because I think shrins are full of crap and probably attribute your distress toward you being young - it could be your biology/ brain chem doing something weird. I am not a doctor, or a brain expert but it is just what I thought of - especially if your family has any history it might be something you want to think about.

I know you will figure out what is going on eventually - keep your chin up and you and others safe

If you lose your heart you won't really lose your mind. I mean, you'll know where it is, it's just that it won't be working quite right for awhile. I don't think you can lose your mind if you truly have a heart. Caring for loved ones will always keep you sane, although it sometimes feels like it's doing the opposite.

Answer 5

I have heard all the answers to that question. You have so much to live for. You are only hurting the ones you love. The list goes on and one, but when you get to the stage you are at in thought, you need to get help from a doctor. There are so many different medications out there, and you don't need to be on them for a lifetime. Please seek out the help of a doctor, before the thoughts over power you. I have been there so many times, and I know the feeling of being out of control. I now try to put my thoughts down on paper, or in the computer. It helps me, it may not be what you need, but you need to find something that helps you find the answer to why you feel as you do. But first you must get some medication so that you can think clear enough to figure it out.

Answer 6

I used to feel about the same as you. I used alcohol, a depressant, to help me feel better.
The better feeling didn't last very long. I joined Alcoholics Anonymous, even though I didn't think I was fully an alcoholic, and was surprised to learn that just having a desire to quit drinking is the only requirement for membership. Now, 23 years later, I enjoy going to meetings, I have many AA friends and enjoy the laughter and fun that I help other members have.

Answer 8

there are counselors/therpists or even regualr family doctors that can address these problems You are not alone Mnay people have similar or worse and can overcome them but rarely can youjust "talk yourself out of it" one day and its all gone You sound very wound up right now as a third person I can tell you. You sound as if your speech is pressured. i would also descibe your words as indicating agitation and panicky and you are having intrusive thoughts of violence. Are you taking any stimulant drugs? If so you need to come down off of that and get elp If not you could use an evaluation to see how to help yourself Print this out and your question and tak eit to your doctor or counselor.

Answer 9

You should seek professional help if you're experiencing depression and think you are losing your mind. Asking for help like this from strangers over the internet will not be of any benefit to you. Good luck.

I have attempted suicide albeit my failure don't do it.
You know what you need? Man you need a sweet girlfriend to take care of you. I am 19 but i feel old and I also need a girl to keep on Earth. Trust me find a nice girl and you will feel a new man. I took up smoking but avoid it unless you can't get a girl. Have a beer, who knows you might really know what its like to have the blues, like me. Listen to the blues music helps recuperate your mind. I can't say I havent thought about it but I don't want to die because I want to know what the next chapter in my life is. Like a book, if flip it shut you will never know the ending and it might just be the ending that is the best part. ;)
