I feel like..dying. Self-esteem question.
Posted Monday May 15 2006, 4:03 am
Hey guys,
ok I've hit a real low-point in life.
I've already tried killing myself, and that's not it..it's over the stupidest thing ever; looks. I hate myself so much. I'd do anything to be pretty, I've seriously begged my mom for plastic surgery 20 times a day for this whole year. I need to change. It's not that I care what others think cause they seem to think I'm pretty, it's myself, my inner-critic. I won't be happy until I change completely, but my mom made it clear plastic surgery is not an option, so what do I do? I don't remember the last time I was happy, seriously, every time I finally wake up happy, I look in the mirror..and all I see is: bulging stomach, big nose, hairy + manly face, disgusting face, short legs, un...

I get angry and scream and hurt myself, and it's hard to con
Posted Saturday May 13 2006, 4:51 pm
I get angry a lot now...for many reasons...I scream at my dad. Like today, just now, I woke up late, which puts me off schedule, which made me mad, so I started screaming, then I cut myself on my wooden drawer, and I slammed my foot down so hard, that I now have a bruise on my heel. I am afraid I'll go off like this on my friends, and they'll all leave me. What I need is someone to love me unconditionally, and someone to help me stop getting angry; At least that's what I think. Please help! I feel embarrassed about this, and am afraid I embarrass my dad and maybe will embarrass my friends...

depersonalization
Posted Wednesday May 10 2006, 11:41 pm
my friend was just diagnosed with depersonalization. does anyone have it or know someone close to them who does? What can you tell me about it? What is it like to have it? Was it easy for you to learn to cope, or very difficult? What triggered your most severe symptoms? How can I help my friend when she returns from the clinic? While she's in the clinic? Is there anything I should or shouldn't say or do? Any information is greatly appreciated.
Thank you :)

Self-confidence
Posted Tuesday May 9 2006, 12:16 am
I know we all have insecurities, but I'm pretty sure no one is as paranoid as I am. I'm not fat, but I'm not really skinny either. All the girls in my school seriously look like they are anorexic and the guys are all over them. I thought guys like curvy girls. Anyway, my best friend is a freakin' twig, and she has all these guys all over her. Seriously. It doesn't stop. Two of them even came to her house when she was sick because they're like obsessed with her because she's so beautiful. And I know I'm not ugly, but something inside of me keeps telling me that I am, and I need to get skinnier and more slutty and wear more make-up or stop wearing my hear a certain way. I used to be a really confident girl, but it's all changed now. I know li...

manic depression
Posted Saturday May 6 2006, 1:41 pm
I have been getting really sad/depressed lately, and for no reason or for small reasons. I overreact to everything or just have breakdowns. I have been getting more and more of them recently, and I don't know what I should do. Sometimes I'll be really happy and then sometimes I feel like I have no friends and want to die. Is there something wrong with me? Do I have manic depression?

A silent cry for help.
Posted Thursday May 4 2006, 8:52 pm
I don't know whats wrong with me. I might be depressed but I don't know. Well my dad died when I was 7 and my mom went blind (a lot of stuff happened but I don't want to say online...friends go here and stuff) so anyway. Lately everyting sets me off. I start to cry. Not just cry but hide under my blanket and half scream into my pillow. I used to cut myself a while back, but I stopped because all my friends didn't look at me the same way. My life is pretty messed up, but I've always been able to deal with it before. This one person said that I should talk to someone outside of my family, someone I trust. The thing is, I don't trust anyone so its hard to do that. So I have really kept all this in for like ever.... I have been having like pani...

Disorder?
Posted Thursday May 4 2006, 7:10 pm
I was wondering if theres something wrong with me right now.
- For the last two weeks, I've been very agitated, little things push me over the edge and everythings been bothering me. Usually I'm a happy person, and easy going but latley small things like having to repeat myself, running outa something like shampoo, people tapping there pencils, people singing to songs randomly, certain words+songs, and even people who talk to me, I get very angry with them, and just like they bother me, its like, why won't they just stop.
I'm not depressed or anything, its just thats small things are agrivating me alot more then usual in the past few weeks and my friends and family have noticed it too, is something wrong!?

Moody?
Posted Tuesday May 2 2006, 6:03 pm
Alright well usually I don't let the things other people say to me get to me, but I hear this from pretty much every person I meet. Apparently, I'm really out of control with my "moody-ness". I know I have times (especially once a month haha) and I have bad days but is there any way I can control my mood swings? It's nothing serious but I know I am kinda moody all the time.
Thanks!

Not always a morning person
Posted Tuesday May 2 2006, 2:36 am
I'm usually either very lethargic or very pissed off in the morning and I figure I can fix that by adding something a little more enjoyable into my routine. I'll wake up earlier if it seems worth it. Does anyone have anything special they do in the morning that helps them not be a zombie/grump? (Note: going to Starbuck's every morning and other such expensive things are a bit out of the question).

Depression
Posted Monday May 1 2006, 4:12 am
15/female
A couple months ago my doctor diagnosed me with depression and I started to see a councelor. I quit going after a couple times because she made me feel worse and I had a breakdown 2 times in one week because of her. I was fine for awhile, but now I'm feeling horrible again. I don't know why I'm feeling depressed and everynight I want to kill myself.
I can't take anti-depressants because they'll react with my medicine that I'm taking right now. Anyone know of ideas to get my mind out of this fix that it gets into?
