I was recently diagnosed with severe depression, and its gotten worst to the point that i dont get out of bed when i dont have work. On my work days, its VERY hard for me to get up even, let alone get to work on time. I got a write up the first time, and explained the illness that i'm going through and told them i'd put more effort in getting to work on time. (an hour and a half late!). So I've gotten better, with coming in late only 30 min or so...and still got another write up. This time I won't get a chance, they said the next tardy, I will be terminated. My question is, doesnt "Major Depression" count as an illness? If I were physically ill they'd understand, but this doesnt cut it? Can someone help as to what my legal rights are in this situation? I have a doctor's note, on antidepressants, and taking therapy sessions. So, Im doing all I can to get better, but this is only making me more depressed

I recently received an email from FACEBOOK stating that my account is temporarily suspended due to suspicious "activity". I didnt think much of it because I rarely log into facebook. Last night I was checking my email, when I realized all my FOLDERS (13 of them) that I keep for documents for school and such, are all empty. I haven't checked these folders in a long time, but how can they all be empty?? Could it be a glitch, or did someone really hack in? I changed my passwords to everything, but I need info as to what to do to retrieve my documents back? should I e-mail YAHOO?? And should I start a new email address all together??

I get so insecure, jealous, sad, and it happens with every serious relationship Im in...What is it? Is it possibly a defense mechanism because I'm afraid of getting hurt??

When I'm single and dating, I'm great, no jealousy, insecurities, I do as I please and laugh at the jealous guy! But now when things are serious....Im so different.

OK, its pretty complicated, but I need your opinions as I am falling deeper and deeper into a depression.

I got out of a 7 year emotionally abusive and draining relationship, and family that is of no support. Luckily I got out of there with no strings attached, although it was very challenging to finally leave, and get over him. I fell into a bad depresion. Was single for about a year, started dating and finding myself again. I dated a lot and was looking for something more than the usual, and I'm very picky, so I wasn't going to settle for any guy. I finally met this wonderful man, coulda been the man I've been dreaming of. We dated for a month and everything's going great, when one morning I get a phone call and its his wife!!! I quickly ended things with him, and told her that I was sorry, but never knew he was married. He continued to pursue me, and let me know that he and his wife was going through a separation. So...low and behold, I'm back with this guy. He held back info that woulda made me stray the moment Id find out, but I had fallin' hard for him, and it's not ok in my book to be with a married man, but I made an exception for him. Lowering my standards. It's been almost a year he finally filed for divorce. I love him, and I know he loves me too, but I can't help to feel insecure at times, what if he does that to me? ...am I ever going to get over the fact that i was with a married man? We fight all the time, and its because I get these bad jealousy/insecurities that I blame on him for putting me through this. But he thinks its from my past relationships.

Help me, I want to feel peace of mind again. Will I get it if I stay with him? I feel like I'm always out to sabbotage my relationships, because with my ex, I was always afraid that he's do me wrong too. What am I afraid of??

I'm always so self conscious about EVERYTHING , but when i drink (not heavily) i feel so good and not all up tight...and i can finally converse without thinking what the rest of the people are thinking about me. Is that my true self coming out?...Is the alcohol helping with my anxiety? and, should i get professional help for my anxiety. It really gets in the way of my making friends...and keeping them. pls help...I'm really starting to think there is something wrong with me, but then again I know I'm a great person, beautiful on the inside and out.

no one should ever tolerate either one...but which is worse and has a lasting affect...such as scarring the soul...

what does it do to you..and how can you hep heal someones who's verbally abused to get back what they may have lost

My dog was my baby, I love him. He got hit by a car...I could not believe it, it was like a nightmare and i thought if i just pinched myself it would all end. I literally had to run to his side and really believe that he was hit...it's like for that moment i was in shock. The driver took off..and my brothers chased on foot after her. They finally got her to stop the car..and my brother started running back to his dying dog...he was going through shock, and experiencing spasm. My brother never got to see his beloved dog take his last breaths...as he was running back, he fainted..and my parents ran to get him. I didnt know what to do...my dog got up, and i thought there was a chance he's survive, but he just fell back down....bleeding and all...going through shock..and he was gone. This horrible scene happened right in front of my house..it was a nightmare, and everyday i think about that night, i cant seem to get over it, or at least start to heal. I feel this void inside of me

what do you think of breast implants? If a girl wanted to look her best and get it a little bigger...do you think she should or not? Shouldn't we utilize that option...or is natural the only way to go?

I'm thinking about getting a boob job...but just not sure if i should just be happy with my healthy self...or take the risk hoping to be happy with bigger boobs. It won't be a major change, still going for the natural look ...(i did not post this in the wrong category either)

what are the effects..long term/short term...How can i get him to stop?...he smokes it ALOT...like once every 2 to 4 hours per day. This is NOT for medicinal reasons..he just wants to get high...(idiot)

this will be my first time...will it hurt like hell?...how long does it usually lasts for

i've got a short fuse...and HATE it. I realize this problem and want to change...but keep failing.

how compatible are the Rooster and Dog?

are Lefties born a lefty,are they special..? and in what way? is there a certain characteristic they all share?

We were together for 5 and a half years...broke up on bad terms and he made mistakes of having sexual relations with another woman. I understand we were not together when he did this, but he says he'd always thought of ME during sex with her. He thought of me everyday. We have ALOT of problems but..we're dedicated and in love again. I just feel betrayed because during our break up, I waited for him and knew we still loved each other...and just the fact that he had sex. We were each others first...and high school sweethearts. How do i get over this? We for broken up for 9 months.

I think I am a very genuine person that likes to have fun, and be silly, and lend a shoulder to cry on if ever needed. But for some reason people are drawn away from me...either by my looks...my personality...i don't get it. I think I'm quite humble as well...people see a pretty girl and already think she's conceited...and on top of that, I have a serious manner...but can be very fun and outgoing. I have achieved my goal to become an RN...but still cant achieve the goal of having true friends to turn to in good times or bad.
