obsessive of weight
Posted Friday March 14 2008, 4:24 pm
I have a problem. I am not anorexic or bulimic, I have never gone a day without eating, and I usually eat 1000-3000 calories a day. I am 5'7" and 131 pounds. My problem is that I think I am very chubby even if everyone says I am not. I obsess over calories and weigh myself a few times a day. I get so depressed if I feel I eat too much and hate the feeling of my stomach being full. I eat very very healthy and exercise regularly. My mother and my sister both have eating disorders. I would never starve myself, but I am so sick of thinking about calories all day and pinching my fat spots and making sure I can still feel my hips. I guess my question is how can I stop obsessing and be normal and eat without hating myself? thanks

What happened to my life?
Posted Friday March 14 2008, 3:41 pm
15/m
I really do need to have any help from anybody willing to answer, anything will do.
A few years ago, i left my old school to go onto Secondary school. Now, at my old school, i had lots of friends and i was really, really happy and nothing was wrong. But when i changed schools, my social life just...collapsed. I've just been finding myself on my own and I guess it was from that point onwards that i began to talk to myself, creating realties in my head and situations and i would act them out (literally), speaking to people who weren't there and i would respond when they replied or asked or even spoke. I'd only recently began to notice this and it's scared me, i mean really. I don't know how to stop and ...

Therapists in Maryland
Posted Thursday March 13 2008, 9:21 pm
Does anyone know of any place where you can see a therapist/psyciatrist (sorry if that's not the correct spelling) in the Annapolis, Maryland area without your parents knowing ? My parents are completely against that stuff and I really need someone to talk to because my friends and parents aren't helping much, so that's why I ask. Any help would be appreciated ! Thank you !

What's wrong with me??
Posted Wednesday March 12 2008, 8:46 pm
i dont know whats wrong with me. i am 14/f freshman. i am very dramatic and emotional but lately i just act like i dont care about things. my friends are starting to notice. well at my school (i switched a quarter into the school yr) there are only like 35 kids in my grade (i went from 750 in my grade at public school to 35 in my grade at a private Christian school) and i feel like they arent my real friends. i have only a couple real friends at my school. people are always judging and talking about people. since im easily upset i just started to shut off those emotions and say i dont care. im not truly happy at my school and dont act like myself. i have amazing friends that i love outside of school but i dont see them that often. like once...

this has happened before...
Posted Monday March 10 2008, 7:45 pm
but i had a dream about a month ago that i was pregnant so i started to believe it. and also i wanted to get pregnant..and in psychology i learned that this woman did that and she started to retain water and she got bigger and gained weight and whatnot. and then nine months later her water broke. but nothing came out. because she wasnt pregnant. and that happened to me. and now its happened again. i got rid of it last time because i got drunk off my ass and then threw up like 14 times. and i dont know how to get rid of it now. im calling it my "psychological fetus". but i dont drink anymore. so what do i do??

Is this "cutting"?
Posted Sunday March 9 2008, 11:07 pm
I know someone who said that they don't really "cut" but they use anything they find that's kind of sharp and scratch their skin until it's just kind of raw... but they don't make themselves bleed, they get to the point right before they would bleed. They said they feel depressed but don't tell people that because they want to make everyone happy... and they just like having the marks on them and keeping it a secret.

gonna explode
Posted Tuesday March 4 2008, 1:39 am
Ok. So im a very passive person, i dont like to start drama, i usually walk away from it. All of my friends on the other hand, like to dump it all on me. I guess im just a really good advice giver, but lately, especially with my best friend who i thought i could count on for anything, im being treated like a therapist. Now there are things i need to talk about too, and ive not been hiding that fact. But it seems like the only time that my friend will even talk to me is when she needs advice about something stupid. I try to explain, im not a therapist i am a person! and im about ready to explode if i get asked one more stupid question or to phsyco analyze someting while i have serious things to talk about. This never used to happen, we were ...

What is Wrong With Me?
Posted Monday March 3 2008, 9:36 pm
Ok, I don't know what's going on. I really don't know how to deal with disappointment. I don't feel like explaining the whole thing but I'm disappointed about this thing I was going to go to but it didn't work out. It shouldn't even be that big of a deal but starting tonight, I'm REALLY preoccupied about it. I'm not even nervous about anything just really disappointed. I was like pacing the floors, my heart was sort of beating, I couldn't think straight, I didn't know what to think, I couldn't relax. Now I probably wasn't having an actual "panic" attack but I was like in a panicky mood...over being disappointed about something?! This has happened once before. What's wrong with me? Is this normal? If so, what should I do and what s...

Lesbian, Bi, or straight?
Posted Monday March 3 2008, 6:18 pm
13/F
I have no clue whether i'm bi, lesbian, or straight. It's weird, because I can remember liking guys. I mean REALLY liking guys, as in, my heart would beat like crazy if my crush walked by. I've gone out with a lot of guys too, but I have that problem about getting bored after a while. It seems as though my heart doesn't beat like crazy and my stomach doesn't get that tingly feeling anymore, and I miss it. I still will show off for certain guys and whatnot, but I don't feel that heartbeat thing anymore. For anybody. I don't know what this means. I'm not too fond of the idea of me being a lesbian (absolutely NOTHING against a lesbian. It'd just be weird and all of my friends are super homophobic) I've just never imagined m...

Somethings wrong
Posted Wednesday February 27 2008, 9:27 pm
13/f 8th grade
I feel really upset lately but I don't know if I would call it depressed. Because just at school I'm more happy and will laugh but at home I get mad and cry and everything. It just isn't me though. I am usually happy but just not at home anymore. I have cut myself and I have cried every single day but only at home. Except a couple times at school but thats it. Maybe its because I keep my feelings bottled up? But I never feel comfortable telling anyone my feelings. When I do it just makes me feel worse so I never tell anyone anything. I don't know what to do. I only write in my diary. But please help me, thanks. Oh by the way I don't cut myself anymore I have stopped that because I think about it and it makes me feel worse so thanks so much thanks.

The most shocking thing I've heard...
Posted Wednesday February 27 2008, 8:50 pm
Lately I've been feeling pretty down. My mom is a nurse and thinks I have anxiety problems and depression. I've seen a psychologist, but that didn't really work, and she recommended I see someone else because I wasn't opening up to her enough.
I was talking to my boyfriend about it the other night, and he said seeing me this upset has made him upset too. He said the last time he had ever felt as upset as he does when he sees me like that was 3 years ago. And then he told me that he cut himself once. I cannot comprehend that. I know people who cut, and adore one of them (I hope I become good friends with her soon, and I hope I can make some sort of difference in her life to make her happier), but I knew she cut before I met her....
