1 AnswerMental Health9 years agoWhat do I do now....!?
Eh. Lets keep it short and sweet.
Basically, tried to kill myself 21 times in my life, been hospitalized twice for suicidal idealation, was sent to a mental ward 4 hours away the first time, was in there for 5 or so weeks.
I got discharged from hospital two weeks ago for the second suicial idealation, was in there for a week.
I'm so so suicidal still though, I tried to Od yesterday with sleeping pills and was asleep for 5 hours straight, awake for 20 minutes and then was aleep for another 13 hours.. so all up I slept for 18 hours straight, pretty much.
I'm going to try again, I'm already planning to stock some medication, what do I do? Do I go back to hospital for suicidal idealation or what? :/
7 AnswersMental Health9 years agoWill this kill her? I'M WORRIED?
My best friend is going to try and OD. I'm only going to inform someone if it's lethal, though.. I can't loose her trust. She's got 2000mgs of seroquel slow release, but I think the lethal dosage is roughly 20000, which is 100 days worth of her medication so I'm not too worried.. she also has 400mgs of Quetiapine.. Would these two medications, Quetipine x 400mgs + Seroquel 2000mgs be lethal..?
Im worried about her, please help. I also think she plans on Drinking alcohol...
6 AnswersMental Health9 years agoDo I go back to hospital? URGENT?
Three weeks ago I was released from a mental ward. I was admitted for trying to kill myself, and collecting 600 tablets. I was there for roughly 5 or so weeks.
I saw my psycologist and tod her of my plans, and she advised my mother to take me to the emergency room.
Now, I don't want people saying "don't kill yourself sucide is selfish yadda yadda," that's not what my question is asking, so don't waste your time.
My question is this; when I was in hospital I was transferred to this mental ward, which was four hours away from my general town. My parents stated in my hometown, but had to travel the four hours a week to have a meeting with my doctors and see me, and juggle work ect whilst doing so. This created a crap load of stress for my family, and for my friends.
I have Been trying to find otherwhys to manage my problems since being discharged, but I'm just gettif oo much more worse, an have tried to kill mysef roughly 4-5 times since I was discharged these weeks ago, bringing the total of how many times I've attempted in my life to roughly 31.
I dot wan to die, but even more idont want to be here. Do I go back to hospital? Or do I wait it out? My parents are willing to take me back.. I've been struggling with this for almost 7 years, and it's just not getting any better.?
6 AnswersMental Health9 years agoNEED AN ANSWER, URGENT.?
Okay. So I've been struggling with depression since I was roughly 8 years old, I am now almost 15.
Almost seven weeks ago I was admitted to hospital because I told my psychologist I was going to go home and attempt to kill myself. After being admitted, I was then transferred 5 days later to a mental ward at a much larger hospital 4 hours away for teenagers. I was there for roughly 5 weeks before being discharged. I was an involentary patient, so I couldn't leave. This put a lot of stress on my family because they had go juggle work and traveling for our hours to have a meeting with my doctor and see me once a week.
But I feel horrific now. I'm more suicidal than ever, since bing discharged I've run away from home with the intention to kill myself, and had the police looking for me. Ran away into wilderness at night (ony to chicken out and come home.) I've tred to od, silt my wrists and hang myself, and this I only since I've been home, which is like two weeks.
Then last night I was researching dogs, for if I make it to my birthday I am gettin one, and came across a documentary on PitBull fighting that went to an hour. Upon watching this at the end it showed how they get rid of dogs that loose fights, they electrocute them, an it got me thinking, "I haven't tried to electroduce myself, before.." I got everything ready by then though, "I'll try one more day.." so I did, and I told my parents how I was feeling and Rey said they'd take me to the hospital. But my bestfriend is really lonely and thinks I keep leaving her, and I'm on my period.. What do I do.?!

4 AnswersMental Health9 years agoWhy does my bird roll onto its back?
I brough a baby (10 week.) old lorikeet about a month ago. We're best buddies!
But he continuously rolls to his side, or onto his back and I'm unsure why? I know lorikeets are born gymnasts, And I'm not concerned about the behaviour, merely want to know what it means?:)
1 AnswerBirds9 years agoIs it something more? Should I have been released?
Alrighty, I just want someone's opinion on what try think this mental disorder is called, and preferably a better description on what it involves.
* playing severe mind games with other people, to the point you're not satisfied until they themselves are mentally unstable or crying. Such as:
* making someone trust you to such a degree you are given the power to be able to hurt them(such as with your relationship, their secrets, ect.) but then once finding out provoking them until you get into an argument and sing everything you can gainer them, too see wha it takes for them to break down or becoming unstable or suicida, an not knowing how to stop.
*extremely controlling
* can't back down from fights
* planning murders for people, and having to carry a weapon on yourself at all times
* always has to make sure everyone knows you're around - and that everyone's fearful of you?
Do you think these could be symptoms of a mental illness? And if what? And a better description of what the mental illness does. Please and thanks.
3 AnswersMental Health9 years agoShould I have been released from the mental ward?
As of tomorrow I wouldve been hospitalized for a month exacally.
Today, though, I was discharged.
I was admitted for risk to myself, and to others. Tryin to overdose and stocking medication and playing "continuous mind games." so being psychotic.
I tred to hang myself yesterday night, and Sunday night whilst I was still in hospital. I told my nurses, so I thought I surely won't be discharged, because I did this place is helping me.
But then today I had a break down and thought I wanted to leave, and because I was involuntary my parents met with the doctors and I somehow got discharged. Only problem is now I regret it so much, an I have no clue what to do. I want to go back so so badly, but I can't. I am still so suicidal, and I don't know where to turn now?

4 AnswersMental Health9 years agoI need help? Im going mental.. URGENT?
Okay..
I'll be honest. I get sick of attention seeker, but I am not one. I am in need of help. Please.
I'll be short and sweet. I'm a depression sufferer, got a psyciatrist, psycologist, mental health team yadda yadda you get the picture.
But nothing has helped. I felt like this for 3 years now.. With medication.
Infront of me is 422 Pills. I counted.
I been asking my mum to take me to the hospital because Im so suicidal but she won't because "All they'll do is say you're fine and let me take you home"
This isn't going to be a suicide attempt, just a.. Help call I suppose. A "HELLO? I NEED HELP? LIKE NOW?"
Im not sure. Im still thinking. PLEASE. PLEASE.. Any help...??
4 AnswersMental Health9 years agoMy friend tried to kill herself?? Is she at risk.?
Okay.
My best friend has been suicidal for quite a time. She regally asks her parents, "I'm scared I'm going to hurt someone or myself, please take me to the hospital." And her parents won't take her. Our towns lacks a Psychiatric hospital, so she's stuck.
Also her parents are out of town at the moment and I can't contact them.
I just got a text saying she took a whole brand new bottle of Dieting pills, three large bottles of vitamans and a 600ml of Fish Oil tablets.. And a crap load of other stuff kept in the cupboard.
Look it might seem funny to some, but the rest of her medication has been restrained due to previous suicide attempts.
Is she in any harm? Could these kill her...? Please no stupid answers, this is a serious question.
4 AnswersMental Health9 years agoMy bestfriend wants to loose her virginity and it's stressing me out?!?
Hey,
I'm 14, and so is my friend.
I am a paranoid Schitzophrenia sufferer, and sever depression sufferer. I have an alcohol and drug problem. Anyway, roughly two weeks ago while under the affect of marajuana and alcohol, I lost my virginity two a 24 year old. It left me feeling dirty and disgusted in myself; infact I felt that disgusted the morning after when I realized what I'd done I vomited.
Anyway, point is, I told my best friend and now she wasn't to loose her virginity to her boyfriend of only 3 weeks..? I can't tell her not to obviously because I'm not a hypocrite, but I just get this horrid feeling.. Like she's going to regret it. I don't know? I've got this horrid knott in my stomach whenever it think about it..?
Should I mention it to her..?

5 AnswersAdolescent9 years agoI Need Help, Please..?
I keep seeing things. People trying to grab me, hooded men, I even saw my dead uncle and thought I was talking to him. Sometimes when I lay down at night, the whole room spins around me, and I feel like my bed is moving as if I was in a boat.
I keep thinking people are out to get me, I'm paranoid, I hate being around people. I feel extremely clostraphobic(sp) when ever I'm around people, even just one person like of rather be anywhere else. Even when I'm in my room by myself I feel crowded, it's horrible.
I hate a temper and a half, I'm always angry even if nothing has happened. I snap at anything, even if it something such as my mother asking me to pick a towel up.
I feel extremely rushed, and will feel as though ive had an extremely busy day even if I've only spent it in bed.
My mind feels over rushed, like I can't hear my own thoughts anymore. I've always been having extremely bad headaches and shaky hands, and feel like I have no emotions other than anger.
Also been experiencing weird delusions.: thought I could fly ext
I can't concentrate in school, and find myself just staring around like an idiot.
Isn't trust ANYONE either.
I cut, also, a lot. More than alot, and write poems and quotes in my blood.
I'm diagnosed Panic Disorder and Depression, but my medicine doesn't seem to be working..? I also see a psycologist and a psyciatrist.
What's wrong with me?
Even though iv just listed all off this, I dont feel like anything is wrong?!?
2 AnswersMental Health9 years agoHelp I'm going insane.?
I am so close to Suicide it isn't funny? And I have no clue what to do..?
Roughly three years ago, I started seeing 'lights'. They used to move around my room at night, when everything was completely dark, it scared the **** out of me to be dead honest.
Since I moved, 4 years back I have had an increase of Anger.
Recently(last year.) I have been extremely suicidal, angry, paranoid, distant, and I have been experiencing hallucinations.
The lights turned into people, trying to kill me. People staring at me from he other side of the room. Then I saw people I knew, covered in blood down the street. Then came the voices.. I started hearing stuff, people laughing - screaming when no one was there. Then they started telling me to do stuff, screaming out my name. And only recently, I was down the street and SWORE I talked to my uncle who died 2 years ago. Positive of it. Then I started feeling people touching my legs, stroking them.
I have been so suicidal and homicidal it's not funny. I have overdosed over 13 times in the past six moths, taking 200+ pills each time, but alas I'm still alive. If I get mad at someone, I will bring a knife to school the next day and depending on how bad I'm pissed will look everywhere for them, trying to slit their throats.
I also feel so distant, like I'm stuck between Fantasy and reality, nothing is real. I'm twitchy, I can think anymore - the words that would be thought in my head either come straight out or I move my lips as tho I was talking, and just no sound comes out. My body aches, i always have headaches.
Me emotions are screwed. I don't feel love towards anything. Anything.
My best friend rang me in tears because her nan died, and I literally fell over
On my bed laughing? And i couldnt stop no matter how hard i tried, and then i had a dumb grin on
My face all day.I laughed at someone dying?
I trust no one. I am so paranoid that I hve completely blocked myself off from everyone, I dumbed my boyfriend an I think sooner or later I bbs leaving my friends. I just hate being around people. I'm extremely clostraphobic, too.. So so bad.
I've cut off my social life, refuse to answer the gone to friends and will just mope around in my bedroom instead..
I have to see a psycologist and a psychiatrist and my doctor twice a month...:/
My psychiatrist diagnosed me with Panic Disorder.. And gave me medicine. The medicine has boosted my mood by 3% but it hasn't helped anything else and I've even on it for 4 months
I cant tell my mother about the suicide idealation, because she lost her brother from suicide only 6 months ago.. I have no clue what to do.. I'm so isolated and have no one..?
And no. I have NEVER done drugs.
