Feel I'm close to psycho
Hey guys. 17 f. I'm young enough for being such neurotic as I am by now. My usual angriness with something ends up with broken fists. The problem is I can't take anything in stride- everything could get me lost of self- control. Actually before today it didn't worried me, but I've just found myself crying because of things I can't explaing as there aren't simpy any of them. What should I do? Hope you could give me some help.

From what you have written it would appear you have a problem with anger management and possibly a form of depression. Are these two problems linked? Possibly I really don't no and can't say for sure as I am not a doctor.
What I do know having suffered from depression myself, is that depression causes you to see things, or not accept things as they are presented to you. They are in a sense sort of out of focus to you. This could be why you fly of the handle so easily.
To find out is you are suffering from some form of depression starts with a trip to your family doctor. You asked to be screened for depression. The doctor will ask you a number of questions. Based on your answers the doctor will be able to make a diagnose. At that point your doctor will most likely want to do a complete physical to rule out any organic causes he or she can treat.
Then your doctor will either prescribe medicine and or send you to a psychologist for talk therapy. Your doctor may want you to see a psychiatrist, no you are not crazy. Psychiatrists are better able to prescribe for this than a family doctor as they are better trained to handle clinical depression. Clinical depression is caused by the lack or missing chemicals in the brain that control mood swings. This is generally caused by stress.
Proper medication and talk therapy are needed to help you. The talk therapy will help you identify and deal with the stress. The proper medication will deal with the missing chemicals.
Given your age it would not be out of the question that clinical or teenage depression is what you may be suffering. Not to long ago what doctors are now calling teenage depression we parents called a phase children went through. We now better know.
We know that teenagers have a lot of stress put on them, especially female teenagers. The stressors come at them at school, at home and socially. At your age their is the added stress of waiting to hear on college acceptance.
So take heart your not alone and there is a light at the end of the tunnel. See your doctor and asked to be screened for depression. You may even be able to be screened at school in the health office.

Hi! To me it seems like, since you really can't control your emotions that you might have a phycological disorder. And that's not necessarily a bad thing so don't freak out! My advice would be to go to therapy and they can diagnose you and treat you with medicine and everything will be better!
