Forgetful
Posted Tuesday August 15 2006, 11:43 pm
13/f.
I am very forgetful. I have a very short memory and can't even remember what I ate a couple of nights ago or what I wore. I often tell people about my experiences like something interesting happening or about a party that I went to, but I tell people again, and not even realize that I told them the first time. Help?

I don't know what's going on
Posted Tuesday August 15 2006, 11:41 pm
[[ 13/f ]]
I think I may have some type of mental disorder, I don't think its depression. Maybe ADD/ADHD. Let me explain. I cry a LOT. I am VERY VERY sensitive. I cry over everything, sometimes it causes arguments with my mom and stepdad, because my mom often tries to defend me when my stepdad gets angry when I cry when he dissapoints me. I am super sensitive, and I'm pretty sure that its not just my hormones. This has been happening since I was about 9. I'm terrified if someone gets mad at me and I constantly apologize. This might contribute to my crying. I just don't know what's going on. I need help.

Stupid Questions
Posted Monday August 14 2006, 7:48 pm
Is it just me? Or questions on this site getting stupider and stupider? I mean, you should come to this site and talk about your problems, and try to get them worked out. More and more I'm seeing people talk about Myspace and things that they could really find else where. Is it just me? Or dose someone else out there agree that this needs to be cut down jus a bit

Hi...caller id.
Posted Monday August 14 2006, 3:48 pm
This is kind of a weird question, but do you know how to hide your caller ID when you call other people?
Like, on their phone when you call, it won't say your last name, your phone number, or the state you're in. I think you press star something so the caller ID won't show up. But can you tell me what you press before you make a call?
It's this privacy issue with my parents.
If you answer this, thank you!

upset
Posted Sunday August 13 2006, 9:16 pm
I don't know if this could go in this category because there's no category for personal problems. MY problem is that I can't take it anymore when people act like I'm their bitch. They don't really act it but I see expressions in their face that tells me and it makes me mad. I think it's wrong and disrespectful and I want them to stop already. Been going on for 2 years and I wish people would get over it. Then my family keeps comparing me with some group of people that I really hate. I am 19 years old.

i always feel either too quiet or annoying
Posted Sunday August 13 2006, 12:04 pm
well, i use to be a very not shy, friendly, talkative girl. i really didn't have lack of confidence or anything like that. then, i had this situation which tore my confidence. it was just a situation that someone REALLY REALLY hurt me and it was about two years ago. but, sometimes, when i remember i just go to a corner and start crying. ever since, i've been kind of scared and timid and i even developed a little bit of anxiety. i didn't have fun at all these places i loved to go. i spent about two years like this. this year, i feel like i'm getting out there more. i've been talking to people, making new friends, joining more clubs, starting clubs, basically just being more active and not being so shy. but, then when i go talk to people, it ...

ADD/ADHD
Posted Sunday August 13 2006, 4:19 am
I think i have ADD and i am going to be tested for it before i go back to school. I have taken adderall a bunch of times before and that helped me. I was wondering though.. is adderall more for people with ADHD? Cause i dont think i have that. If i got diagnosed with ADD, do you think i would be prescribed adderall?

colors..?
Posted Saturday August 12 2006, 11:49 am
ok this might be a little strange, but when i think of something, it's always a color... i have colors for names, the time, days of the week, letters, up/down, brands, seasons, states, and even north/south/east/west. a lot more things too.. i don't obsess over them, but i think about them often. im just wondering what it all means? is this abnormal?

OCD.
Posted Friday August 11 2006, 6:44 pm
I know FOR SURE that I have OCD, but my phsyciatric doctor only diagnosed me with anxiety. I take two medicines for it, but they don't help. I need OCD medication, but he hasn't diagnosed me with OCD. How can I prove to him that I really do have it? I was thinking that I could keep an OCD journal, and write down all the rituals and OCD things I do each day and show him, but I need other ideas.

my life is just falling apart
Posted Friday August 11 2006, 6:21 pm
I feel like I don't want to live anymore. I did NOTHING this summer and I hate myself for wasting my summer. I lost alot of my friends almost all of them. My boyfriend and I just broke up. My 9 year old sister gets treated like a princess by my parents and my parents ground me for everything that happens when my sister always does the bad stuff. My sister gets to go to my neighbors beach house every weekend and sleeps over EVERY weekend while my mom makes me stay with my grandma who hates me while my mom and dad go to expensive restaurants having the best time. I used to be the smartest person in school with straight A's but now my grades are slipping so much I almost had to stay back. I'm so lazy and never get anything done. I've gotten so...

Am I a pedophile?
Posted Thursday August 10 2006, 4:52 pm
I'm male and just turned 16.
I'm not sure if I'm a pedophile, but I've always been attracted to younger girls. (Much younger sometimes). I'm like 16 but I still masturbate while looking at girls from like 7 to 12 years old). But I wouldn't just want sex with them! I'd like us to be friends too. I think they're kinda "cleaner" than the "girls" of my age, and more honest I guess... And they're much cuter, and their skin looks smoother and softer... And they're kinda better in all ways! And I CAN'T stop having dirty thoughts about them! What's happening to me???

Ex Boyfriend On Drugs?
Posted Thursday August 10 2006, 10:46 am
In April of this year, me & my boyfriend of almost 11 months, broke up. That's not my worry. The thing is, now he does things he would've never done before. He gets high, A LOT & he shoplifts. I want him to stop because I don't want him to end up like his dad, and because I'm concerned about his well being. I talked to him about it, but he said not to worry about him. But I do. He told me "If I start looking like Michael Jackson from sniffing Cocaine, then say something, but until then, just don't worry!" But I am gonna worry because I still care about him a lot, and I don't want him to ruin himself, even though he is everytime he gets high. I was thinking about calling & telling his mom while he was at summer school, ...

Can't eat
Posted Wednesday August 9 2006, 10:41 pm
I was making out with this girl the other night at a party and I guess she was pretty tossed since she freaking threw up in my MOUTH. Since then, I haven't been able to eat anything--because vomit is disgusting, and swallowing some of someone else's vomit grossed me out that much. Whenever I go to eat something I feel like throwing up myself so I can't eat. GaaaahhHhh what do I do?
