Answer 1

I'm a little older than "Quincy's Mom" and I have recovered from suicidal depression. You are on medications (paroxetine), which explains your problem with delayed ejacualtion as it is also used to treat premature ejaculation. It is also a controversial drug due to its bad withdrawal side effects and some cause of suicidal ideation. It is an SSRI.

SSRI's are a help in treating depression but are no "silver bullet" as they do not solve the cause of the depression or anxiety but improve the situation to where psychotherapy can cure it. You are right in knowing you have to forget about negative things. Getting over depression is not easy and takes a "full court press" on your part to stop dwelling on negative perceptions and thinking. It takes will power and not relaxation and waiting for the pills to do something.

Negative thinking causes depression and it in turn causes more negative thinking in a cyclic descent into a full blown "black hole." You have to will yourself to think positive when you catch your self thinking about negative things or beginning to feel low. If your therapist (I assume you have one) does not help try the following web site.

www.recovery-inc.org

Which is the link to recovery groups using the will training techniques of Dr. Abraham A. Low the author of "Mental health through will training"; Willet pub. Co., Glencoe Illinois, 60022,1997. This is a non-profit organization which has groups world wide in major cities for recovering from mental illnesses. It has been in operation since 1937..

Good luck in your "recovery," good mental health, peace and Love!

Answer 2

I have been suffering from post partum depression for the past one year when I gave birth to a baby boy. I couldn't stop thinking about how my husband loves him more than me and how things might be better if he wasn't born at all. Thus, I stayed away from him because I knew that I might do something I will regret for the rest of my life.

Almost instantly I went to a therapist and convince them that I need help. Among other things, I've tried herbal supplements and other book to treat depression but nothing works like the Depression Free Method. So now I'm proud to say I'm one of the happiest mother in the world. My husband loves us both very much and I thank the Lord for the blessing he gave us.

Depression Free Method?

You must let this out or it is going to damage you. I'm guessing your about 15 now? Communicate to a therapist, higher even a psychiatrist. They're sure by using law to now not inform any person about what you said, its all exclusive. And excellent of all they will not choose you. You are going to on no account simply *fail to remember* about this, please see a psychiatrist. Each GP (healthcare professional) will refer you to at least one if you inform them whatever is upsetting you so badly you might be thinking of ending your life. And they can't inform your father and mother either what you mentioned with them. I'm a regulation scholar (UK) and please notice: age of crook responsibility is eight for scotland, 10 for England and wales, and in most american states its both 10, eleven or 12. So despite the fact that anyone finds out, you can't be punished for this EVER if you had been under the age of crook accountability. Excellent good fortune.

I went thru the same thing at 40 took about a year to get totally well but have never had a repeat problem, thank God.It's scary when it happens but does not mean it will ever happen again. I think I'm better in many aspects because of it. My patience , outlook on things and faith in God are stronger today and I'm now 67. God bless you and this too shall pass.

Answer 5

you may desire to permit this out or it is going to wreck you. i'm guessing your approximately 15 now? communicate to a therapist, greater valuable even a psychiatrist. they are sure by utilising regulation to not tell absolutely everyone approximately what you stated, its all exclusive. And ultimate of all they gained't choose you. you will in no way in basic terms *forget approximately* approximately this, please see a psychiatrist. each GP (wellbeing practitioner) will refer you to one in case you tell them some thing is frightening you so badly you're questioning of ending your life. and that they could't tell your mothers and fathers the two what you suggested with them. i'm a regulation student (uk) and please observe: age of criminal accountability is 8 for scotland, 10 for England and wales, and in maximum american states its the two 10, 11 or 12. So whether somebody famous out, you would be unable to be punished for this EVER in case you have been below the age of criminal accountability. stable success.
