The more I swear I'm happy the more that I'm feeling alone?
Posted Saturday March 15 2014, 10:52 pm
I'm a very introverted individual, and I often keep to myself. It's not that i'm shy; I just enjoy being alone (or so I thought). It actually works out better that way because I keep myself from getting hurt by fake friends or cheating boyfriends. I'm a transfer college student and ever since I transfered things have just really taken a change for the worse (mentally speaking). I decided to take a small vacation for spring break with some college friends from my previous college. The thing is I had a wonderful time. They treated me better than any of my hometown friends, and boys actually showed interest in me instead of talking about me. ANYWAY, long story short, I hated to come home today because it reminded of just how lonely I am here, ...

Learning Disabillitys
Posted Wednesday March 12 2014, 3:03 pm
I just turned 15 and am a sophomore and a girl.
I started homeschooling in 5th grade.
My mother and my older brother where both were tested and have dyslexia.
When I started school my mom noticed the signs and recognized them as dyslexia, and helped me deal with it.
So I've always known I'm dyslexic even though I was never tested.
In about 7th or 8th grade, my grades started slipping especially in math, science and history.
I have problems understanding and remembering what I learn, understanding instructions, pronouncing words(even though I know the proper pronunciation), I'll forget what people are talking about while they're still saying it, among other things.

how to fix my mind
Posted Saturday March 8 2014, 3:58 am
I've been deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan a couple of times. And sence about 2007 or so I've had a lot of issues with people and life in general. I can't sleep, I go days up to a week at a time without sleep. I've been seen by docs a lot for issues. I've been on more medications then I can remember. Nothing seems to really help. I've set in councilors for hours. I feel like it's just really to annoying to go back to the docs. I can't stand being around people, and anytime someone says something to me all I want to do is stab them. This makes work difficult. If I close my eyes and try to sleep I wake up in about an hour and feel like I'm back on patrol or on fire, or that I'm about to die any second again. So then I can't go back to sleep. ...

Can't sleep because I'm scared of my dreams
Posted Thursday March 6 2014, 6:34 pm
Lately, I've been having really scary dreams. Once I dreamed that I was watching babies drown, and in another dream, I was drowning in bubbly water. In another another one I had there was this crazy snake-lady trying to kill me. (Anyway, you get the idea) Now I'm scared to sleep, because I'm scared of what I'll dream. They feel really real too, like I'm actually in danger. Please help me! I'm really scared!

I can't stand sunny weather..
Posted Thursday March 6 2014, 6:10 am
18/f Now this may seem weird to most people but I don't like sunny weather at all. The thing is that whenever the sun is out I get really depressed and sad. At the beginning of spring I sometimes start crying for no reason, because I feel so uncomfortable. Then after a while I get used to the sun but I still don't like it.
I suppose I'm not the only one who dislikes sunny weather but why do I get so extremely depressed?
I just can't stand feeling so sad :( The sun is shining again today and I'm sitting here nearly crying .. what is wrong with me? And please don't make fun of me ._.

Failing out
Posted Saturday March 1 2014, 8:01 am
There's a weird school system where I live and we're writing our finals now. I used to be a good student- straight As and everything. But I've been dealing with depression for the past 4 years. I've somehow maintained fairly good grades so far anyhow.. but now my depression seems to have gotten worse and I can't bring myself to care for anything. I am sitting at the exam table and I don't care about writing the exam! I try to force myself to focus and give it my best shot but I can't bring myself to try to finish it. I just don't feel like eating, or talking or doing anything anymore and it's making it so difficult to study. And I am tired and exhausted all the time, and even if I try very hard, something just doesn't let me give my best. I...

Is he a narcissist?
Posted Saturday March 1 2014, 7:02 am
I've been dating my partner for 5 months now, we have been for many other years before. Before me and partner got together, I went on a few dates with his friend, they're not close to spend time together, but close enough to speak and say hi. Anyway, the dates were just casual dates, nothing went further and I ended up getting in a relationship with my current partner. I had a message the other day from the guy I went on a date with (his friend) asking how I was, etc. I was being polite by replying, I have no intention of going back there again, he was being really jealous telling me to leave my current partner for him. Obviously, I told my partner but now he's really mad at me, he's said he needs space and it's been 3 days, I feel lost now...

anxiety? or…?
Posted Thursday February 27 2014, 1:55 am
i've suffered anxiety like this for a while, but it's been gone for a year and i think it may be coming back.. or i actually have a health problem. usually, (with my anxiety), when i feel an ache or pain i google it and psyche myself out. i am a hypochondriac, (or at least i used to be), and idk if i'm forming it again. I've been feeling great pressure in my chest (i'm 18 years old so i have no idea if a heart condition should be a concern), and i keep belching. the belching relieves the pressure for a minute and then it all comes back. i can feel the air or "pressure" release for a few seconds when i belch. yesterday, i made myself vomit because i was nauseous. does that have to do with this? i read a lot about this belch...

It happened again...
Posted Sunday February 23 2014, 7:31 am
I have cut for a long time. I had a two week clean and then after my boyfriend broke up with me over wanting to relapse ( we dated two months not long but still)he is saying tht he contributes to my depression. He also cuts and had been clean for three weeks, or so he says. If I can't keep someone as messed up as him why bother? This was out if the blue, everything was going fabulous and then one day I was asking for help because he stopped and I thought he cared, and he started saying how he's sick of this. And now he hates me.he won't talk to me. Out of desperation and depression yesterday I broke my clean in an extreme way, and nearly bled out I nearly passed out and it left these awful gaps in my skin that break open. They were horribly...

Seeing a different Psychiatrist?
Posted Thursday February 20 2014, 9:27 pm
I have been seeing a Psychiatrist for about 3.5 years now for Anxiety and panic attacks.
I have mentioned ADHD to him and he put me on medication which worked out alright.
However, he thinks I may now have Bi polar which I disagree with. I think I have ADHD.
Can I go see a new psychiatrists even though I am under treatment with him for anxiety meds and Bi Polar?
I have not taken the Bi Polar meds because fear of side effects especially weight gain. I also do not believe that I am bi polar.
What can I do?

Hear a voice just before i fall asleep.
Posted Wednesday February 19 2014, 12:14 am
"Mental Health" probably isnt the right category. My subject pretty much sums it up. Sometimes, right when Im on the edge between sleep and consciousness, right smack between two different places, I swear I can hear someone say my name just faintly, but because of the weird state Im in, it really catches my attention. I dont know where it comes from. Its like it comes from the sleep and sounds in the sleep and in the wake, like it echos or something, its hard to explain, but you probably know what Im getting at. Im just really curious about it. I want to know what it is, why, and why I hear it and only when Im in that state. Also, because it's so faint and brief, I can't distinguish characteristics such as sex or whether I know th...
