What can I do to feel better!? I've never felt this bad!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I went through the same thing!. I smoked everyday over spring break and popped x twice!. After that i felt uncomfterable through out the day!. Like i needed to go somewhere and do somthing but there was nothing to do and no where to go!. I was depressed i had anxiety and felt guilty about my use etc!. What worked for me is i stayed away from all drugs untill i just recently started feeling better!. I also take add meds, my doctor told me the meds were causing me to focus on my depression and not on anything else (dont tell a doctor about your use, he will send you into rehab)!. So i got my meds switched and stayed away from all drugs and i felt better in a week!. I still smoke but only everyonce and awhile but thats it!.

Ive read your other questions and everything thats happening to you, happend to me word for word!. Just know that this is not permenet!. You will be back to your normal self soon if you stay on track and dont give up!. Also dont feel bad about your use!. Its in the past and theres nothing we can say or do to change it no matter how hard we try!. The only thing we can do is learn from our past, and use what we have learned in the future!.
If you still feel this way for a month or so, your should really talk to a doctor about it and get some anti depressents!.

It was hard for me to get through this because my friends didnt know how to relate (even the friends i popped x with) or they didnt know i even used!. So if you need to talk to someone im here to help you out i know how hard it is to get through this alone!. Email me if you want to (thunderkid75@yahoo!.com) ( i know its a gay email, lol, i made it a few years ago in middle school!.) If you dont want to email me, good luck and know that you will be you again soon!.

Good on you for facing up to this!. Feeling like you are a bad person is a feature of depression!. Every time you have a thought that you are bad, or that your going to fail your exams - tell yourself that you are good, and list the reasons why!. Visualise yourself easily passing your exams!.

Take one day at a time!. You will be fine - tell yourself that at every opportunity!. Take some time every day to study for your exams -and reward yourself afterwards - you deserve it!.

Be kind to yourself right now, and talk to someone who you can trust - get them to help you make a plan to help yourself feel better!. Exercise, eating good nutritious food and having fun will all help you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I can give you a short answer, that won't scare you too much!. I live with chronic major depression and have been taking medication for it for years!. In all likelihood, you are suffering from depression and require some antidepressant therapy!. It is best that you see your doctor and start on meds before exams!. It can take a couple weeks before you get the full benefit of the treatment but you will probably feel somewhat better in about a week!. You might only need temporary help with this, maybe 6 months so it is not a disaster!. Mental health is not shaming!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i dont really feel your depressed just unstable and uncertain, you find it hard to truth or take virtue in the fact people are reaching out to you but in a way which undermines your intelli gence!. or its the fact you regret a decision you made and are too scraed to confront the people and the conequnces so you shut yourself away and isolate your self from feeling what you did!.

you have to find within your self the person who makes you, you!. you may feel that youve lost your identity but one thing i know is your trying you havent given up hope if you lost that you wouldn't have enough self motivation to ask/be interest you can do! you need to find the lost you but if you dont want to find that exact same person you were!. i would try to imagine your self a better person and have an aspiration to be like him/her you should feel high because we love you and were here for youWww@Answer-Health@Com

I have suffered with depression on and off for years!. It started when I was around 15yrs old, I'm now 27! I was put on tablets, which didn't really work for me!. I then done CBT therapy which i found really helpfully, it changes your thought process and why of thinking!. you should talk to your doctor about all the possible avenues that are available to you!. You should not ignore this though it really needs to be dealt with before it gets any worse for you!. Good Luck with your exams hun!. :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

talk to your mates or family, its properly just stress from the exams depressing you, you may also want to talk to a counselor or a doctor if you think its that bad, but otherwise dont worry about it until after the exams if you still have it then, then you should worry!. but as i said for now talk to your mates or family and you should be fine!. if you dont want to talk to them or you want some advice you can contact me via my profile!. good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

Please tell this to a professional who can help you!. We can't help you, you need medication for the depression, it won't go away by itself, and it will make a cripple of you if you let it!.
good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You should talk to your primary care doctor and be referred to someone that can help with therapy and sometimes a medication!. Good Luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There is a quiz about depression, through sections 1, and 2, at ezy build, below: print the result, and take along to your primary mental health care provider!. With depression, there is a choice of possible treatment types which needs to be made, and you can decide to use either allopathy, (modern Western medicine) with its reliance on antidepressants and therapy, or alternative treatments, which I advise trying first!. This is because antidepressants are known to increase the rates of suicide, homicide, and aberrent behavio(u)r, particularly with young people, and often have unwanted side effects, such as sexual dysfunction, and/or weight gain!.

Tests have shown that apart from clinical (major) depression, their results were not significantly superior to those taking a placebo (inert, or "sugar pill")!. Antidepressants retain a degree of long term effectiveness for only around 30% of people!. There is a saying in the mental health field: "If the only tool you have in your kit is a hammer, you tend to treat everything as a nail"!. So it goes with doctors, and their prescription pads: handy, quick, and convenient, when trying to manage their large list of patients, and often allocating only several minutes to each!.

Most of them are only trained to provide antidepressants and referrals for therapy, with those whose depression is resistant to those treatments being advised to have ElectroConvulsive Therapy, (ECT) with its risk of permanent, partial memory loss!. Therapy, while often effective at first, becomes "same old, same old" after a while, for many people!.

I suggest: (1!.) Take 4 Omega 3 fish oil supplements, daily, (certified free of mercury) with an antioxidant, such as an orange, or grapefruit, or their freshly squeezed juice!. If vitamin E is used, it should be certified as being 100% from natural sources, or it may be synthetic: avoid it!. (2!.) Work up slowly to 30 - 60 minutes of exercise, daily!. (3!.) Occupational therapy (keeping busy allows little time for unproductive introspection, and keeps mental activity out of less desirable areas of the brain)!. (4!.) Use daily, one of the relaxation methods in sections 2, 2!.c, 2!.i, or 11, and/or yoga, Tai Chi, and/or the EFT, in sections 2!.q, 2!.o, and section 53, at http://www!.ezy-build!.net!.nz/~shaneris whichever works best for you!. (5!.) Initially, at least, some form of counselling, preferably either Cognitive Behavio(u)ral Therapy, or Rational Emotive Behavio(u)ral Therapy!. (6!.) As options, if desired, either a known, effective herbal remedy, such as St!. John's wort, or a supplement, such as SAMe, taken with a vitamin B complex which is certified as being 100% of natural origin, or Inositol (from vitamin and health food stores, some supermarkets, or mail order: view section 55)!.

Start a mood chart/thought record, and record all negative thoughts!. Whenever you notice a negative thought, record the mood (disappointment, sadness, frustration, hopelessness, anger, etc!.) and rate it, from 1; the lowest, to 100; the strongest you have ever felt!. Have 3 columns, and in one, write down the thought!. For example: Mood: Lonely: 90/100!. Thought: "I feel like I will be alone for the rest of my life"!. Then, although this can be painful, it is very important; record every piece of evidence in support of this: "I am alone right now!. I have been for some time!. There is nothing to prove this won't continue"!. In the last column, write down all the evidence refuting this: "I used to be fairly sociable, and enjoyed being with friends!. Change is inevitable in life, and nobody can state the way things will be in the future, for sure"!. "Most people recover from depression, in time, and I rarely felt lonely, until becoming depressed"!. Then read again what you have written!. Give it a moment, to let it sink in, and rate that mood again, possibly putting it in brackets, and/or in a different color, but try to stick to a standard practice, for greater ease of review, later!. Example: Mood: Lonely: [70/100]!.

If the amount of daylight you have been exposed to recently has reduced, perhaps due to the change of seasons, see Seasonal Affective Disorder (S!.A!.D!.) in section 2, at http://www!.ezy-build!.net!.nz/~shaneris and, instead of taking around 4 Omega 3 fish oil supplements, daily; replace 2 of them with cod liver oil supplements for the winter months only! (or, as probably a better alternative to the 2 cod liver oil supplements: 1 teaspoonful of cod liver oil, with a little butter, to ensure its use; I take mine on sourdough rye bread, or toast, covered with fishpaste, and pepper, to mask the strong taste)!. Optimal levels are 50 - 55 ng/ml (115 - 125 nmol / L)!. It should be above 32 ng/ml!.

Don't use medications and supplements together, without medical advice, except for Omega 3, which is safe, anytime!. Take enough supplements to attain, or exceed the levels (no possibility of overdose) of those every day, with an orange, or the juice of a freshly squeezed orange, grapefruit, or other antioxidant!.
(make sure the epa is higher then the dha) important for adults!.!.!. kids need the opposite levels: more dha than epa, but all are beneficial, if you can't achieve the recommended proportions!.

Consider having your doctor test your vitamin D levels, (60% of depressed people have low vitamin D levels!) using the 25 Hydroxyvitamin D test!. Those people who receive adequate exposure to sunlight, daily, won't need the vitamin D from cod liver oil, but many people, particularly those in latitudes far from the equator, find this difficult to achieve!.

If the above is insufficient for you, after several months, (unlikely) try one of the alternatives, such as the neurofeedback, magnetic, or low current electrical stimulation, or EMDR therapy, (see section 33, at ezy build) keeping ECT back, as a last resort!. Read: "Lift your mood now!." by John D Preston, Psy!.D!. 2001, New Harbinger Publications, Inc!., 5674 Shattuck Avenue, Oakland!. CA 94609 http://www!.amazon!.com/ may be worth trying for this!. I have read many books on depression, but if there is a better, more easily read, and quickly implementable one, I have yet to encounter it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
