OCD?
Posted Monday June 25 2007, 10:08 pm
I'm not sure what's wrong with me, and wheather it's paranoia, or OCD, or something else. This is really hard to explain but i'll try my best.
In my head while i'm doing something, i'll make like, a 'bet' with myself. Like I have to do something or else i'll die. It's about really stupid thing, too, but it's just become a habit ie: You have to fast forward through the opening credits of this tv show, otherwise you'll die. I found a way to kind of 'derail' it, by instead of saying,"Otherwise you'll die," saying something like, "otherwise beyonce will gain a pound," But now saying that has because an obsession. I used to do something kind of like that, but with music videos on MTV. And whatever music video ...

Is there any good way to deal with feelings of embarassment? When something embarassing happens to me, everytime I think about it even weeks after it happens it just kills me. I feel terrible about myself.

so upset and depressed
Posted Friday June 22 2007, 6:15 pm
14/f
I'm more upset than I usually am right now because a guy friend of mine just told me that this other girl said i was fat and was making fun of me. I used to not think I was fat, even though I am. I'm curvy and i thought that was sexy, but apparently it's not okay. I'm sitting here crying right now and i've been doing that all day. It's not my fault that I don't have a metabolism. I eat 1200(or fewer) calories a day, only healthy food, and I work out every day, but lo and behold I'm still a fatass! And everyone else i know is an anorexic bitch who eats whatever she wants.
If you don't believe that I'm fat- take a look at this pic: (yes i know the clothes are form-fitting- that's so you can see my fi...

Schizophrenia.
Posted Wednesday June 20 2007, 8:49 pm
Okay, I've been living with my seeing things and a slight fear of the dark and almost any noise you could possibly imagine for the last few years. Lately though, it's getting worse and my paranoia has reached amazing levels, I also tend to be more aggressive about it. I've talked to my friends James, Casey, and Travis about it. Travis & Casey know alot about mental disorders and suggested that I am schizophrenic. Lately it's all getting worse. I'm frightened all the time, of almost everything, and not just at night either. Someone give me some advice? Anything would help. Thank you so much.

Last bite?
Posted Monday June 18 2007, 11:48 pm
OK, this is very weird & sorry, I had no idea what to put it under. Anyway, for some reason, when I eat a meal, I never ever eat the last bite. I mean I'm sure I could if I really tried, but, it usually just happens that there is that little last piece that I feel I can't eat! Everyones is like, "oh, you can't eat that last little bit?" But, I just don't do it. Any ideas on why this is so normal for me?

Blocking out my feelings?
Posted Monday June 18 2007, 11:15 pm
You could say that I can't "get into the moment." Its very hard for me to feel "fun" and just let go. While everyone else is haing a great time or when when everyone around me is feeling the spirit I just can get my mind into it. I'm either obsevering the moment or just can't focuse. I remeber reading the scriptures with my dad and I could feel it -- it was sort of a happiness and joyful just popping out of me.I also remember when me and my two friends where with one of her "crazy" brothers (lol) and we were doing 160's and 360's in the car --it was total excitment. Is there something wrong with me? Anyway to let go and put theses boarders down?

I can never make a decision!
Posted Monday June 18 2007, 7:58 pm
i have a really hard time making decisions about ANYTHING! i mean, even the stupidest, simplest thing, i can't make up my mind about! like any time i go out to eat, i can never decide what to order. so the waitress and everyone has to sit there waiting for me to decide, until someone will finally just pick something for me. and like today i saw this really cute shirt at the store, it came in pink, black and blue. so i sat there for like 35 minutes trying to decide which one i liked best. finally i got the pink one (just cuz my friends were getting mad)... but now i keep thinking "oh no, maybe i shoulda got the blue one!" and its so stupid because ITS JUST A SHIRT! last week i couldnt decide which color sandals i liked best...

Weird dreams
Posted Sunday June 17 2007, 8:46 am
Lately I've been having weird dreams, not bad weird, good weird.
And they haven't been about the same thing over and over they've been totally different things so it's not something on my mind.
I was just wondering, what might be causing them? Because whatever it is I want to keep doing it. These dreams ROCK!

Sick?
Posted Saturday June 16 2007, 11:15 pm
I don't know what's wrong with me lately, but I just don't feel good at all. I have really bad anxiety, but i'm not sure if that's it.
Two fridays ago i threw up, had panic attacks, and was feeling better by monday. On Monday, my symptoms changed, and I felt light headed and tired all the time. Probably because I had lost my appetite, which caused me to eat even less. That feeling continued all week until yesterday afternoon. I came home, and had eaten a full meal and felt a lot better.
But yesterday afternoon I went to a fair in my town where I ate ice cream and a soft pretzel, and went on rides that spun around a lot. Needless to say, not the best idea. I felt really queasy when I got home, so I went straigh...
