It is probably fine. Tell a parent and go to the dentist to make sure.

Hey, sorry for bothering you. I was just wondering, who should I talk to? My dad died when I was 13, I don't want to turn to any of my friends, because they just seem like they wouldn't care, or they'd give me stupid advice. I have my older sister, of whom I live with. But she's never home, and she was never close to my mom nor dad. Thanks for your advice though. :) (link)

First of all, you do not have to be sorry for "bothering me". I am thrilled to speak to you at any time you need someone. I am sorry to hear about your dad and your friendship situation. If there any counselor you can speak to at school who can set you up with a therapist or give you someone to at least speak to? My screen name is Jeanettessn@aol.com. You can IM me anytime. I can speak to you when you need some help. For the meantime, try to contact an adult at school who you may be able to converse with about this situation. Good luck sweety.

My mom was an alcoholic, everyday she would drink. DUring christmas even more, just because she hated using all of her money and was afraid we'd be moneyless after christmas. On 12/23 I came home from school, all happy because it was the last day and now I have a 2 week vacation, and I came home to my mom being drunker then hell! I was sick of it and I went upstairs because I didn't want to talk to her. About 2 hours later my dad got home and yelled me from upstairs ( I was sleeping ) .. he said that we had to go to the hospital because my mother had passed out.. she had overdosed on anti-depression pills and was drinking ALOT of alcohol at the same time. when we got to the hospital we waited about 30 minutes and they came out and told me my mom was dead. I can't stop thinking that this is all my fault, like if I would've stayed downstairs maybe I would've stopped her from OD. I've been to a psychiatrist about this, but nothing seems to be working. What should I do?? Thanks for any help in advance! (sorry its so long) (link)

Honey,
I want you to take a deep breath and say "None of this is my fault." I want you to believe this. Your mother sounded like an extremely depressed woman and no matter where you were, she would have the same fate. You definitely should speak to someone to sort out your feelings and try to work on them. I am very sorry this occured, but you can work through this. Maybe they can put you temporarily on some anti-depressants for the time being (e.g zoloft...prozac...effexor) Please talk to me or write me back any time you need any help.

I'm loosing it! 28yrs, recently married 3 months ago. Let's just say it hasn't been a bed of roses.
1st there's my stepson. 8yrs. Has grown up mostly alone with just his Dad. Spoilt brat! So I'm working day by day to be the stepmother, but in his eyes it's just EVIL STEPMOTHER. He is very rude, spiteful, headstrong, and most of the time does what he pleases if I don't put my foot down.
Now ontop of that I'm dealing with my husband (29yrs) who recently discovered he suffers from Panic/stress/anxiety attacks and hypertension. He moans evryday about how ill he feels, and I have to remain quiet & supportive. When I try to speak to him about anything, from his son, to his "condition" he tells me I am making it worse! He uses his stressful job and the stress of life as an excuse. I love him dearly & I am trying very hard to cope with his son, and him. I have suggested we take his son to a Therapist & that he see another Dr, for a 2nd opinion on his health, or even a Therapist to help him cope with every day stresses. He freaked out! Today, I lost it, and told him to get over himself, and that he should realise that he's not the only one dealing with stress. It's not the first time I've lost my cool either. We've been fighting alot recently because of everything going on. I really don't know what else to do. He and my stepson are driving me to the edge. I'm trying so hard to be strong, cause my husband's not well. But having to deal with this moaning evry day and my stepson are now taking it's toll. To top it off, my husband wants us to start trying for a baby, I desperatly want to too, but then I;m thinking "An ill husband, a terror of a stepson and a newborn baby? NO WAY!"
As much as I love him, and I want to be a good stepmother to his son, I feel as if I just want to run away because I can't handle all of this anymore. (link)

Anxiety disorders are serious buisness. They cannot just be "gotten over." It is not cut and dry like that. You should not be belittling his condition. He already has enough on his plate and he sounds like he is on edge too.
Is it possible that you weren't ready for marriage? Weren't to oready to love someone for their faults? Maybe he is not ready to go to a therapist. He needs to go when he is ready, not when his wife pushes him to. These things can not just become invisible and pressure DOES MAKE IT WORSE.
As for the 8 year old, you are complaining? You should have realized it wouldn't all be some fairy tale. It is hard for children to have to face a new person in their parent's lives. Did you realize that if you have another kid it is not all going to be easy. LIFE ISN'T EASY- WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE.
Honestly, you would think that someone who was in love would be able to support their husband in a dire time of need. That family just might not be the right one to be a part of for you.
I'd look into therapy myself. What you have is what we like to call "a self pitying disorder".

I advise that you sit down with your mother tonight. You should put off your schedule for one night and try to sort through this with her. Maybe you can collectively make a schedule or a night one or twice a week when you dedicate all your time to each other.
As for the fighting part, try to tell your mother what is bothering you in a mature fashion. If you speak to her as an adult, she is more likely to treat you with respect as well.
Good luck to you and your mother, Jeanette
