Hi, I understand the worry you have about your son being in the hospital. Why did the dr.'s feel he needed to be in the hospital. What type of symptoms did he have? Has he been dx with something by a...
Eric, I'm sorry to hear you had problems with a person in the chat room. Most of us come to the boards and chat rooms looking for help or giving what advise they can. Sometimes you run into that one...

Hi, you need to know you are not alone in this. I too used to be a very pretty lady. I have let myself go to the point that I am ashamed to go out in public. I'm afraid I will embarass my family. My...
Hi. On your website I filled out the reg. but never received the e-mail with the log on information. How long does it normally take or should I try it again? Thanx Phyllis...
Hi Sukay, I don't think that person thinks you are ignorant but is saying they are too afraid to try a few drinks on top of their meds themselves. You have a valid question and I am sure alot of...
Hi, I'm no dr. but it sounds like you are worrying about your friend. If things start getting worse and you start isolating yourself from all your friends and stop doing the things you enjoy then I...
Kathy Hi. I am 43 and bi-polar. While checking on the symptoms I found that alot of times ADD has some of the same symptons. Find a good P dr. that deals with Add and have your son checked for that...
Hi and welcome to the boards. Sorry to hear you are feeling down. Like you, I don't talk to my friends or family about my depression but have found a therapist that I know that no matter what I say...
Hi John it's good to hear you are feeling better and had a good time. My chest hurts too when I am having an anxiety attack. It's always good to know that it's not something more serious. I use meds...
John I am so glad things are looking better today, even if it was only 30 min. into the day, at least it is a good start and that's what counts. You are right in that the dr. you saw was for your...

Hi Ann, I was dx as bp I when I was 36 - my first trip to the hospital. I know how expensive depression and bp can be, however try to find a local clinic on maybe some group therapy sessions. It's...
Hi, Unfortunately some meds do put weight on you. If you are uncomfortable with it talk to your dr. and tell him you want to be on meds that do not have the weight gain side effect. Good luck with...
Hi EZ and welcome to the boards. First off, you have no reason to feel guilty for things you did in the past. The past is the past and there is no changing what we used to do. Before I was dx at age...
Hi Sudan, I would hate to tell you that yes your husband sounds like he could be bi-polar. I myself am Bi-polar and was dx in 1995, even though it has been many years since I was dx I find new things...
Flea, At first I really didn't want to, I had already made my plans to end everything because I could not cope anymore. In the hospital they were able to change my meds, all of them, and watch me to...
Flea, Sorry to hear about him quiting his job. Maybe you should try talking to his Psy Dr. and T., (I realize they can't give you any information) but maybe you could let them know how bad he really...
Flea sorry about everything that is going on. It's a good sign that he is going to a Psy. Dr. and T. and good for you too. Try to hang in there for awhile if you can. It can take some meds 4 - 6...

This was sent to me from a friend and I thought on a day as this it is appropriate. [color=#004080>[color=#004080>[b]"I want to repay you," said the nobleman. "You saved my son's life."...
Pity is right you need to get to a dr. What insurance do you have, if you don't mind me asking? Most of them have a different number for mental health. When I have changed ins. I have always had to...
[blue]Yes adivan can make you more depressed, everyone's body handles different meds differently. It is also addictive, so if you had been on it for awhile and stopped cold turkey the shakes could...
