Got Issues? This Might Give You Some Hope
I know that not too many people will give a rats ass about this, but quite frankly I don't really care. If you know something is wrong with you and want the help, go seek it immediately. Don't wait until the last moment or end it when you KNOW you can help yourself conquer your fears.
Couple of days ago I had posted that I finally had the strength to call a counselor at my school to start seeking some therapy because I have been fighting some inner demons for the past five years ever since this damn condition struck me.
I often thought about suicide, but never actually took the chance to end my life. I would look at a knife, start thinking about the good and the bad and then end up crying in a corner somewhere because I had these thoughts. And this is coming from a person who has a strong negative feeling about those who take their own life away.
I have anger issues, anger that could possibly seriously injure someone if given the chance. I throw and punch things. I've stopped throwing things after my luck of always breaking something unintentionally. The last time I threw something, I broke a window in my house, stepped on the glass and it made me feel relaxed.
I stopped and began punching my legs. Like really punching them to a point where they're black and blue on the top. I love my legs, and it sucks that I do this to myself.
I know I also have an eating disorder where sometimes I look at myself in the mirror and call myself fat. So I stop eating things for a while and drop into the double digits rather than the triple. I can feel my organs pulse more than before, some of my tanktop's straps fall on my arms rather than stay on my shoulders. My friends hate to see me look like a walking skeleton.
Finally, I decided to take some action before it got to a point where nothing can help. I wanted to find someway to stop all of this mess before it grew to a point where nothing can solve anything. People tend to give you different answers in how to handle your issues. Your friends and family might help you out, but in my situation, I feel that they can help to a certain degree. To which I decided to talk to a stranger to see what they have to say because they don't know me and could possibly help me. I was told that I should look into anti-depressants, but I was told that their side effects are actually worse than being on them (not to mention, would it interfere with the medication I'm on already and they do say it's more dangerous to take them when you're under 25 years old)
I thought that maybe this could help support those who are in need of finding help to fight your inner demons. Yeah they might just be voices in your head telling you the wrong things. But if you fight back against them, they could go away. Don't wait until it's too late or at a point where no help could come and save you. This isn't easy for me, especially with so much that's going on in my life right now, I don't need this conquering me and making me drop out of school. I don't need that, I want to overcome this fear and thought that this might inspire any of you, if you're battling something no one knows about, to really seek the help before it's too late.
Yeah. I don't know how to really end this.

I know roughly what your dealing with.
I been dealing with depression for good few years now. and only went to doc in Nov to do something for it. I think what cause it was greed of other people. I can't get job because employers want hire people they know, don't want train me because cause them money, want me spend money for them get background check without being offered a job in first place. Job centre didn't help my problems either, just made them worst. Losing pals all the time (even tho their not good pals to begin with). Top it off, I hate how I feel that can't be me most of time.
LIke you, I like to punch when I'm angry but most of time it wall I hit. This week my freeze wasn't working right so all food in there had to be throwing out but problem is I didn't have lot money spend on food so I lost it. Started kicking freeze and shouting. After that I broke down so ended up getting my mum up to house and she was worried so went to my mum's house for while try claim me down.
I got to point now that if I get worst then I know I'll never be back to normal so I'm waiting on getting counselling (there long waiting list now) and starting tell me about it.

I never took you as an angry person Icebaby, really the opposite, so it kinda makes me sad reading your post.
I've got really bad problems myself, so I feel you, Icy. Primarily, I'm a paranoid schizophrenic, and it sucks. It's a real pain always having irrational thoughts and never being too sure what's real and what isn't. What's worse is that I can't afford medication at the moment, so I'm battling the schizophrenia with sheer willpower, which is far from easy. But even with treatment, the development of the illness cannot be stopped, only slowed down, so I'm doomed to suffer either way.
I think the only thing that has kept me from going completely bonkers so far is, besides my mom, MKO. I can always depend on you guys and this site to pick me up when I'm down or scared, and restore my sanity when I'm drifting away. Imgur helps, too.
I totally agree, it's never good to wait to get help. I'm glad I found about my schizophrenia early on, and not with some horrible hallucination. You're on the right track, Icebaby. Keep truckin'. :)

the part about medication in Riyakou's post makes me happy im Canadian but incredibly sad that people who need help in the US sometimes have to pay out the ass. i was diagnosed with Agoraphobia, being Bi-Polar, having OCD (very light case) plus a bunch of physical problems (migraines, arthritis and some nerve damage from a few injuries) and i pay/paid a whole $5 for all of my medication. ive stopped taking some medications (zoloft, paxil and one other) because they made me incredibly violent. but i pay $1.75 for my Tylenol 3 (migraines and arthritis/nerve damage) and Cymbalta (for arthritis and nerve damage).
and to devilwithin on the friend part: i feel for ya. i have ONE friend (in real life). my friend of 27 years has totally turned into a fuckhead. my grandfather had 4 strokes in the span of 2 days and they found out he had colon cancer and when we (me, my grandmother, my mom and my sister) phoned him and left numerous messages, he never anwered and when i talked to him again, he basically said we were all liars and no one phoned him. then a friend of 14 years just up and stopped calling me or anwering my calls.

Me too. I have horrible social skills. I have trouble trusting friends, especially girls, mainly because my two best friends betrayed me as soon as I left for college. When this condition of mine struck me, they were there when I needed them. I had them help me deal with my issues, and it felt like because I decided to leave for college, I left them and wanted them out of my life. That was never the reason why I decided to leave, I left to go to school to pursuit my career. But it felt that if I wasn't following them, I was leaving them. And when I confronted them about not talking to me for months and such, they called me dramatic and stopped talking to me. Yeah I may have been a little harsh, but when they stopped talking to me, it wasn't the first.
It's hard to obtain a job when no one knows you, but that's pathetic to not hire you and train you because of money. Bull. There are so many people in this country unemployed, they could at least go through the trouble in training people that actually WANT to work. I guess I can see why no one really can get a job these days if people are going to act like that towards those who want to work.

I hate worrying my mother, but it seems like the only people we can trust is our parents.

You should try finding a way to see them rather than waiting. I'm not sure if you have health insurance, but they should have a list of psychologists or whatever to help you. Like mine, with Blue Cross Blue Shield, they list what psychologists can be useful towards anyone who has that kind of insurance. Right now, I'm dealing with a school therapist about my issues, and even though I hate waiting for Thursday to come so I can talk to her again, still... It's better to talk to someone immediately rather than waiting.

Definitely not. But hopefully, you can become the person you want to be by getting treatment that you need you know? And hope you get it soon as possible as well.

I hide it so well, even in person. I've been like this for years, and even though many have known me to be the angriest person, they never really thought that it was to a point where it could be a problem. I'm sorry that it made you feel sad, but it made me feel a little bit good about myself that I'm letting this be known to others so that I could be helped. Even if it makes no sense to people, still, it helps me to help other people know that they're not alone with struggling issues, even if I don't share the same issues with them.

I'm sorry to hear that you can't afford medication. That's horrible, really. But it's good to know that you have some sort of treatment helping you, and I really wish for the best of you to get the best treatment possible.

I certainly don't mind helping people, even if they're miles away or literally right in the city. It's good to let people in to help, that's what I'm doing now, finally and it feels ever so good to let people in my life to help me become a better me.

I didn't realize the kind of issues everyone has. I'm not the greatest with words and have my own issued, I'd rather not get into, but hope everything works out for everyone.
Same here, I know where your coming from. The only advice I can give is to move on and try and make new friends. You end up being a better friend to someone who isn't the same in return to you and you deserve better. It's not worth time and energy to try and stay friends with someone who isn't a true friend in return.

That problem, there is no other way to see a psychologists because there big waiting list to see one and only thing I can get my hands on is confidence classes which is not really the problem (it get me annoyed when people say I need build confidence because they think know how I feel. I know I can do a lot things but I'm not getting fair chance show people). I need stop writing now because I'm getting angry while I was typing this

I offer you all hugs. My current problem? Almost debilitating loneliness.
It's odd because I have great friends who I'd kill for, a small family unit who always has my back, and I prefer my solitude anyway. That said, I hate not having someone to share (romantic) love or at least a bed with. Being in love with someone miles away who could disappear for hours probably makes it worse, because I feel abandoned and become angry.
These feelings are amplified when I have a productive or fun day and come home to an empty bed and no one to share my happiness with which dampens said happiness. It sounds pathetic to me, but this is what I deal with.
I knew it was true, but I never thought I'd experience it so early in life: all the success, money etc. in the world is nothing if you have no one to share it with.
These problems may actually just stem from my lack of any actual relationship and the longing to see how that would be.

You are a strong person and i know you can over come this. You may think that no one cares about you, but instead of thinking of those who do not care for you, think of those who do and you will know that you are not alone and that others support you. You are a great person and are honest in your reviews of things and i know people care for you.Everyone has those thoughts, but not everyone can hold them back and i'm sure you can.

Haven't looked at the mk forums for a long time, and glad I did, so I can help.
I came very close to killing my body in 2004, life just seemed completely unfair, like badguys are rewarded(the really bad ones), the innocent are punished, etc.
I started thinking that this planet is Hell, but literally Hell, and then I basically found the proof of it.
I was about to google, This planet is hell, except I knew to type 'fake terror',
and found this conspiracy site, http://100777.htm
There was a lot there, but I was drawn to the 'Ark of the Covenant' page,
leading to http://jahtruth.net/ and this book, the Way Home or Face the Fire.
Reading it was like being at the principal's office, if he could read your mind.
It was like a continual shock to the ego, but I kept reading, because the Spiritual Love kept getting stronger.
You have to give, to forgive, to be forgiven.

Wow Icebaby I didn't know it was that serious. Hopefully you can find the strength to overcome it all.

I was sexually assualted on sunday morning. I'd gone to a house party the night before, passed out asleep in one of the rooms and woke up the next day to a man sexually assaulting me and touching me without my consent.
I was in complete shock at the time. There are many things I could have done, but I was disorientated. I wanted answers from him, why he done what he done, was he sorry, why did he continue to portray this situation out to others like I was some harlot who passed out and let whoever wanted have their way with me. I stayed on the premesis where I was assaulted. I didn't call the police. I didn't feel like people believed me when I told them and I was too scared to go home in case my parents found out or my assailent followed me home. All I knew was I wanted answers, so I stayed, I confronted him. To this day I still can't explain how I was feeling, I think the shock of what I woke up to just dripped in slowly as the day went on.
It's been 3 days later and I'm on sleeping tablets to help me sleep at night as the first two nights I was getting panic attacks at night. I've been escorted out of college for crying and recommended on to a specialist. I've had to ring the rape crisis line. I have to go see my GP again tomorow and I have to press charges against him.
I don't feel like myself at all anymore. I feel like I'd reach a comfortable end if I just took a handful of sleepers and paracetemols, a bottle of my favourite wine and just let myself lie in the bath with them until I drift off under the water and drown. I feel cheap, disgusting, raw, my nerves are chaotic and my soul is broken.

Damn... I'm not a person who has too many problems, besides college, having few friends, and other stuff that comes with being a quiet, nerdy guy. If I had ever gone through this type of thing then I'm sure I'd have something of greater value to say.
I guess I could tell you about my sister. She had a pretty bad eating disorder that started a few years ago. There were points where her weight was well under 90 pounds and her heart rate was low enough for it to stop beating. We got her treatment several times, but it seemed like it just wasn't working. She gain a little bit of weight during treatment, then she'd lose it right afterwards. I actually thought she wasn't going to get better; either she'd have to deal with this the rest of her life, or it would kill her.
That didn't happen though. She kept at the treatment. She seemed to be getting better only to relapse shortly thereafter a few times. But eventually she got out of treatment and stayed out. She's stayed at a stable weight since then.
I'm not really someone who actually knows what goes through a person's head when they have these types of conditions; I can just see what's obvious. My sister rarely smiled, never laughed at jokes, and basically acted the way she looked; like she was dying. But now she's pretty much back to the way she was before.
I guess the point I'm trying to make here is that you've already made the right call. First you realized you needed help, which is one thing my sister failed to do initially (my parents kind of made her). Secondly, you went out and got help on your own and I can guess that it takes a lot for someone to do that. I guess if I had one piece of advice to give, it would be to keep at it and never give up. It might take a while, but I know you will persevere.
Icebaby, devilwithin, Riyakou, Khali, Kabal20, J-spit, mwgrant, Chrome, soulwaker, Undiscovered, NoobSaibot5, and anyone else on this thread; even though I don't always agree with you on everything, MKO without you guys is not an MKO I want to visit, And I'm sure I won't ever have to. I can't really think of a way to end this, but I don't think I need to because I know I'll see you'll always be around.
I guess I could tell you about my sister. She had a pretty bad eating disorder that started a few years ago. There were points where her weight was well under 90 pounds and her heart rate was low enough for it to stop beating. We got her treatment several times, but it seemed like it just wasn't working. She gain a little bit of weight during treatment, then she'd lose it right afterwards. I actually thought she wasn't going to get better; either she'd have to deal with this the rest of her life, or it would kill her.
That didn't happen though. She kept at the treatment. She seemed to be getting better only to relapse shortly thereafter a few times. But eventually she got out of treatment and stayed out. She's stayed at a stable weight since then.
I'm not really someone who actually knows what goes through a person's head when they have these types of conditions; I can just see what's obvious. My sister rarely smiled, never laughed at jokes, and basically acted the way she looked; like she was dying. But now she's pretty much back to the way she was before.
I guess the point I'm trying to make here is that you've already made the right call. First you realized you needed help, which is one thing my sister failed to do initially (my parents kind of made her). Secondly, you went out and got help on your own and I can guess that it takes a lot for someone to do that. I guess if I had one piece of advice to give, it would be to keep at it and never give up. It might take a while, but I know you will persevere.

Is this directed toward me? If so, thank you. It's a feeling that rarely manifests itself, but it hits hard when it does.
Noob, that's just awful. I was in a similar situation, but I was a child and have since forgiven and moved on. It's affected my life in subtle ways, but for the most part I'm quite alright.
I hope you bring your assailant to justice and gradually come to terms with it as something that just happened. Things like this are why I'm afraid for my friend when she gets super drunk. It haunts my thoughts every weekend.
