Avatar m tn To avoid depression try to make your self as busy as you can like working, studying or exercise.
Avatar m tn definitely! you need to see your psychiatrist for treatment. i deal with the confusion almost daily and even medicine doesn't help much, but my psychiatrist isn't the best. i'm going to find a new one soon. some maybe depression too, i have anxiety with depression and mania cycles as well. anxiety can make you do some wierd things and it sounds like you have it.
Avatar f tn I have been told that my physical symptoms are likely to be due to depression and the lymphocytosis a result of having asthma. I have been taking antidepressants (60mg Duloxetine/ daily - for 12 months), although I stopped taking them 2 months ago as they had no effect on my symptoms. I don't know whether these symptoms are physical or psychological. Can depression cause the physical symptoms i've mentioned above? If so what can I do about it?
603726 tn?1223919660 I self-harmed for four or more years and thought I'd never be able to stop. I also had alot of other disorders I was dealing with like OCD ADD Major Depression, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and Eating disorders. The combination of these led me to start cutting. Its a viscious cycle though because cutting or any self harm gives you an immediate release of endorphins but then like caffeine drops you pretty fast and then to make matters worse you feel ashamed.
Avatar m tn Your test at 15 weeks is 100% conclusive.You don't have Hiv.You're safe.See your doctor if you're worried about those symptoms because they have nothing to do with Hiv.
Avatar m tn Anxiety and depression often go hand in hand. Some of us have both. I hope you go to see a doctor and describe your symptoms. It should be a relief to talk about how you are feeling. It is your choice whether you want to take medication. You will know whether you can manage your symptoms without. I have done both.
3677226 tn?1347850595 t feel happy. I worry sometimes that I might have depression too, but anxiety is my biggest worry. Whenever I get down on myself, I feel even worse because I have so much to be grateful for in my life. I have a great life, but with this constant dread, I find myself forgetting how blessed I am. I know a general description is much too little for diagnosing something like this, but I was hoping to just get some advice on whether or not I should see a professional.

Avatar f tn Amazingly not only did it take care of my focus, concentration and being able to read, it also improved my anxiety, depression and bipolar symptoms. He explained that was common. So I continued to take it but needed more of it to work after a while. The dosage was raised a few times then he switched me to Adderall. Tried the XR at 30 Mgs made me exhausted and I was stuck the whole day suffering and pacing, anxious etc. Ended up on 60 Mgs immediate release.
Avatar m tn I can only sympathize with you because I am going through the same thing. I have hurt a lot a people, I am a liar, a cheat, and I have more skeletons in my closet that I will ever know. I am trying my best to change it all because I know this is a major part of my depression and anxiety. I've been told that one must forgive himself/herself to get any rest over it. I am trying my best.
Avatar f tn There is no doubt that negative self talk can drive us into depression. My encouragement is to listen to your self-talk, become aware of it, and if it’s negative, change it! An important part of loving yourself is taking personal responsibility for yourself. This involves elements such as taking responsibility for your own thinking process, for your own therapy program, for what you watch, read, eat, how much sleep you have, and more.
Avatar m tn All of your symptoms are all good signs of depression/anxiety disorders. I have been struggling with this most of my life, off and on since I was 14 (now 23). Don't let if fool you, it may come and go for a while and doctors may say that you have "bi-polar disorder". I don't believe in prescription antidepressants or anti-anxiety medication, as I have tried a multitude of them in my teen years and none of them helped.
1054985 tn?1257173275 ), I am very tired, have bits of depression. Are these symptoms or just the disease itself? I guess the question is this an episode or just minor things that MS cause. Is a person with MS tired all the time or just during episodes?
5805034 tn?1403865293 Involve yourself in some voluntary work – thinking about helping others can take the focus off self introversion and self obsessiveness and can help with self esteem. When you learn to respect and value yourself you can come to enjoy your own company and eventually others will too. Taking care with your diet and your physical health can also improve your self esteem.
774913 tn?1235716902 I am actually not sure if my doctor meant Manic Depression or Massive Depression. He is a medicine analyst, so he specializes in treating a patient with the right medicines. I haven't switched from Lexapro because I haven't had another appointment yet. I don't think where I live they take this sort of thing seriously. Everyone's thought here is "Psychiatrists just give you anti-depressants so they get their money.

1326513 tn?1276518001 This may not be the right place to post this, and if its not, i'm terribly sorry. I've recently went through a terribly heartbreak and the end of a relationship. I've come to realize that when i'm in a relationship i have self confidence, and when i'm not in one - i feel like i'm worthless. I'm struggling with depression and anxiety and the whole relationship still kind of being up in the air still- long story.
Avatar n tn I constantly feel like im going to burst into tears and feel like I want something bad to happen to me, so I end up in hospital. I think Iv suffered with depression before and ave resorted to self harm, I now have an obvious scar on my arm. I feel asthough I have no confidence and I feel a burden to my boyfriend as i feel so sad all the time, although he says he will always be here for me and he understands that i may be sad, he just want me to be happy again.
