Paranoia
Posted Sunday February 19 2006, 3:45 pm
Is it normal to be this paranoid? Like, I always close the window and watch my back because I think there's a camera or even a person watching me. But the thing that happens almost 24/7 is that when I write something personal, like a diary entry or something along those lines, I think someone's going to find it, read it, let everyone know about it, and ruin my life if I keep it around. If I put this stuff on the internet, I think someone I know will find it and do the same thing, or use it for blackmail. Is it normal to be paranoid like this? Is this even called paranoia?

social anxiety?
Posted Sunday February 19 2006, 7:05 am
I think I may have social anxiety(sp). Whenever my friends do something without me I start to think they don't like me and and start to get very depressed. I've been depressed a lot lately for different reasons also but I was thinking I may have social anxiety. I'm starting to feel separated from my friends and that I only have one tru friend. I'm also getting depressed more easily. The slightest thing makes me force back tears. Does anyone have an idea as to what this might be? Thank you.

Mini-Panic?
Posted Wednesday February 15 2006, 12:08 pm
So I am a twenty-one year old female and I've suffered from panic attacks since I was a pre-teen but have managed to get them pretty much completely under control with therapy and medication.
My problem is lately I get these really weird little attacks that last only 5 – 7 seconds. I've always been told that real panic attacks last much longer but these feel just like the big ones, I stop breathing, I felt hot and sweaty and everything feels doomed and I'm terrified for no reason, but then it's just over and I only feel a little shaken by it. Has anyone else ever experienced something like this? They are so quick I can't seem to stop them, any ideas?

So this popular guy liked me in middle school and I hated him back then because he was a bully. Fast forward to four years later, I've had a crush on him for three years. We kept staring at each other all the time for the past while. I just started talking to him and smiling at him last week. When the week ended he got into his car and drove away. I got the worst feeling in my stomach and was depressed for three days and I didn't know why. New semester started yesterday and apparently, he finished all his courses and had graduated. I am never going to see him again.
I've thrown up three times and been crying non stop for the past 5 hours. I really really liked him. What am I supposed to do? I feel like I'm going to go off myself and ...

Death=Fear

[True Question.] 15/f
I`m scared of dying or anyone dying close to me. I asked this question:
http://www.advicenators.com/qview.php?q=412887
And I`m doing really good about that situation. I can finally look at his picture without wanting to cry. But lately everytime my mind goes blank, death of my parents or sister or brother come into my mind. The thing that even freaks me out the most is that I know that they are doing to die sooner or later, & I can`t even try to stop it. I know i`d be miserable without them. I couldn`t even cope with the lost of my cousin, imagine trying to cope with my parents or sister/brother dying. No body knows I feel this way, and it`s eating me inside. What I`m trying to ask is h...

ADHD?
Posted Tuesday February 7 2006, 6:34 pm
I have problems focusing.
During class, if I am not talking to the person next to me I fall asleep. I ALWAYS talk, no matter what. All my teachers write in my comments that I talk to much, I just can't help it I get so distracted and bored easily.
Also, I can't focus on one thing at once, if I do I end up frustrated and stop working, or start like flipping out because I don't get it.

Phobias
Posted Sunday February 5 2006, 11:18 am
I have just got over hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia which is the phobia of the number 666, but now i have just been diagnosed with Ouranophobia which is the fear of heaven. Do you think this is linked? I dont like talking to my phychiatrist. They know to much and that scares me too. Please, i need a normal opinion instead of a long dialog full of words i dont understand. (I dont like asking what words mean)
