[QUOTE=Evilan;29135507]You'll get past it. Just open up about the situation to any of your friends and 10 times out of 10 they will be supportive. It's a classic high school break up. The worst thing you can do is let her breaking up with you affect you in a negative way.[/QUOTE] I don't have any friends. And she hasn't broken up with me, the relationship is just .. Barely hanging on. But thanks :)
[QUOTE=McNab;28261684]I should list me meds Zolaft: Tablet that gives you laser vision and the personality of a stone. You're super focused all the time and emotionally incapable. Getting own3d by n00bs in COD? Take a zolaft and you'll be one of the top player I guarantee it. Conserta: ADD pill that gives you an amazing hand-eye coordination. Conserta is used for concentration and because of this, helps you draw better.[/QUOTE] I've been on Concerta as well (I browsed google it seems you can type both ways Conserta and Concerta)
is it normal to be down cause you're not in a relationship and never really been in one, yet you're almost 17?
Look at yourself; you must realize that this is just a reflection of a fear within. A fear of your parents, perhaps? No, I do not even know. Asking for "normal" though is kind of out there, in my opinion. Literally everyone is different, there is no "normal," maybe an average, but not normal. Asking for "normal" especially with something so sporadic as emotion is, in my opinion, not going to yield many results. In answer, I do not feel down for that reason; I feel down because I take that state of being, then make up false scenarios within my head. I am a year shy of seventeen.
[QUOTE=ScoutKing;29160585]is it normal to be down cause you're not in a relationship and never really been in one, yet you're almost 17?[/QUOTE] Can't really define normal when talking about emotions. It certainly isn't a weird feeling, but rather you're becoming conscious of something you feel you want to change about yourself.
I've had diagnosed depression. I also figured out how to get rid of it. Not saying it'll work on anyone but myself but I think so far I've been living great (or at least I think so) without it.
Hey, so what follows is going to be a rant. While commentary would be nice, just getting it off my chest will be nice. My mom is the only one of my parents who is a regular part of my life. She says she loves me, yet all she does is make me feel empty. Turns out she still hasn't scheduled a meeting with my counselor. I'm going to have to start doing it because she's "too busy." An appointment also has not been made with the doctor about the fact that I simply can't get enough air to breathe through my nose. Last semester all of my grades had dropped due to my depression. This semester I've forced myself to work hard enough to bring them all the way back up. I work after school until at least 6 not to mention my anti-drug work. When I get home, I have about 0 motivation. Despite that, I just need to suck it up. I need to suck it up, because my mom is busier than I am, and she has depression too. I should be grateful that she provides me with things and be able to happily clean my room despite that fact that I can't shake the feeling of being totally alone. After all, the reason I'm so unhappy is because I have too much stuff in my life and not because of things like the fact that I haven't hung out with friends, even after expressing interest, more than twice in the past 4-5 months. There's also my super-low self esteem and fear of rejection even when it comes to things like saying "thank you," but I can't fault her for that because she doesn't know. Which is probably for the better. Sorry, because this is a rant, I'm getting it all out at once. I had to have rice, green beans, and a breakfast shake for dinner because I didn't push myself to eat until 9:30. This means it was too late to go out and get food, and I couldn't make anything new to supplement the nutrition because that would mean letting tonight's leftovers sit. (The time I get home from work is after the family has sat down for dinner)
[QUOTE=Pown;29162928](rant aka "just-getting-shit-off-the-chest" above)[/QUOTE] I know the feeling man. Being depressed is shit, and when there isn't really anyone around to help you out, it doesn't exactly get better. If you don't have anyone that you believe you can talk to, the find someone. It can be really simple to find someone whom you'll just "click" with. Not like in a relationship kind of way, but as friends or something alike. It doesn't even have to be someone you KNOW. You can litterally go to omegle.com and do some text chatting until you find someone "worthy" (someone who doesn't shove dicks or remotes up yours/his own ass all the time would be a good idea). There's plenty of good people out there, you just have to let them come into your life. I know the fear of rejection, I have that for pretty much anything. I try to ignore it, but it always comes back up. The best way I've had "working" coping with it, was just to ignore it and tell myself that it doesn't matter if I get rejected about something. And it doesn't. Just like looking for a job, you'll probably be rejected a lot by people, by folks on omegle and such, before meeting someone who'll like to talk to you about the problems. Hell, it doesn't even have to be the same person, but if you choose to invite some stranger into your life, and they want to, you'll be very grateful and may even get a very good friend :) Worst case scenario would be that you could just PM me, and we could talk :)
ugh i am feeling really really lonely right now. To the point to were it is dangerously depressing. I sat out side today and thought about what i would write in a suicide note if I would go through with something like that.
[QUOTE=ScoutKing;29178186]ugh i am feeling really really lonely right now. To the point to were it is dangerously depressing. I sat out side today and thought about what i would write in a suicide note if I would go through with something like that.[/QUOTE] I used to spend a lot of time thinking about my suicide note when I was younger. I still do occasionally. Now, though, I mostly just feel a general constant melancholy rather than thinking about things. I don't think I'd actually leave much of a note anyways.
Does anyone know about flouxetine and the risks when just stop taking it? I'm on 60mg flouxetine a day atm, been for a few months, but I haven't noticed any difference in my mood. Today I skipped taking it and went off to school, I found that I wasn't feeling any different then when I am on the medicine, if anything I felt better. The only thing I've noticed is that I am a bit shivery.
There is something really important that I would like to ask this discussion information wise. At the very moment I am talking three different medications: Lexapro (depression) Concerta (ADD) Lozerapam (Anxiety) Which for the most part appear to be solving my problems, yet at the same time I still get the feeling that I might be missing something fundamental. I mostly get the feeling due to my virtual inability(or difficulty) of truly getting into something and perusing it. For as long as I remember, I have been floating at the surface of my interest areas as opposed to genuinely becoming submerged into them, which partially does make me question whether they are actually my interests. Without the particular intention of making this a wall of text, I was wondering whether any of you knew of any possible conditions or known psychological problems revolving around the mental block or the inability of truly getting into something. I know that this may sound funny, but overall I would appreciate to receive some information, if anyone has it ofcourse.
Don't know if it would be a specific pshycological condition. I have a really hard time getting into anything aswell, the only thing I'm into is playing piano, but even that I am kind off having low interest for.

Thank you, enduarance. I'm sure we will all get better! :buddy:
Could about 120 Ibuprofen pills have the power to kill a person?
[QUOTE=xZippy;29226129]Could about 120 Ibuprofen pills have the power to kill a person?[/QUOTE] No but it will do remarkable damage on your brain, what are you trying to do, man?
[QUOTE=xZippy;29226129]Could about 120 Ibuprofen pills have the power to kill a person?[/QUOTE] It could. My anatomy/physiology teacher used to be a paramedic, and he told us the story about a teenage girl who tried to commit suicide with about that many Ibuprofen. Well, she called 911 because she suddenly started to regret what she'd done, and she didn't want to die. So they took her to the hospital and tried to get the pills out of her system, but most of the pills had already been absorbed into her bloodstream. She was told she was going to die and there was nothing they could do, and she fucking panicked and only calmed down along enough to say goodbye to her distraught parents. My teacher said that memory has stuck with him for years. It's one of the most difficult things he's ever had to see anyone experience. OP, if you don't die from taking 120 Ibuprofen pills, you will probably permanently damage your liver. If you think your quality of life is shitty now, just imagine going through life having a liver that barely functions. I don't know what you're planning, but seriously consider the consequences before you do it.
[QUOTE=xZippy;29226129]Could about 120 Ibuprofen pills have the power to kill a person?[/QUOTE] fuck up your liver for sure.
[QUOTE=ScoutKing;29228142]fuck up your liver for sure.[/QUOTE] Isn't that one of those kind of suicides that'll actually take up to one week to even die from, and the time until death is the most painfull and self-destructive you experience? If so, then it's just like sleeping pills and painkillers. They don't kill you in a painless way :)

I had to leave early the morning you replied for a trip to Cornell, which is where I'm attending college next year. I never really considered something like omegle but I suppose it could work. Also, thanks for the offer to just pm you. I'll probably take you up on that at some point. At the moment, I actually feel alright. My college visit is amazing, and I really feel once I can escape the "shadow" of my hometown, things will be a lot better, even if they're never perfect.

If i was going to kill myself i would do it in a quick, none painful fashion, but not violent at the same time. I would say what it is; but i don't want to give anyone ideas.
I'm feeling depressed occasionally at the lack of having relationships again, but being in regular school is helping. I just have to ferret out the gay guys. [editline]17th April 2011[/editline] Oh and I found out the other day that my father is a sociopath, who only fought for custody of me when I was a little kid to get at my mom.
[QUOTE=FlapadarV2;29238094]Pump her full of antagonist?[/QUOTE]Doesn't work for ibuprofen, as it doesn't bind to receptors in order to work. Once a lethal amount is in your bloodstream, there's nothing that can be done.
I have been taking 80mg of Propranolol Hydrocloride for anxiety for the last 5 days and I have noticed no effects from it all, except right now I feel rather depressed and there is no logical reason why do you think it could be the pills?
It's probably like that in the beginning, alot of anti-depression drugs work like that, they'll make it slightly worse at first and then it's supposed to get better after a month or so.
I find the thought of knowing you are going to die and there is nothing that can be done scary. Like that is my biggest fear.
