What should I do?


Question:
Over this past year, I haven't felt as good as I used to. I've been getting homicidal and suicidal thoughts. I've feel anger most of the time,then all of a sudden, I feel alright, then just as quickly I feel angry again. I have a hard time sleeping. I'm not intrested in the things I used to be intrested in. I think I may be depressed, but If I tell my parents, I'm pretty sure they are just going to laugh and go "what do you have to be depressed of?" I don't know, I just feel really angry now most of the time, though I don't really show it to others. I find it hard to concentrate all the time now, I scream nonsensical crap in my room? I mean , I'm not a stupid kid or trying to be emo, I'm actually an honors student, but , I just have so much anger. I look at humanity and get pissed. It's been over a year now, will this go away soon? Or should I some how seek help?

Answers:
You didn't say how old you are but, it sounds like you are a teenager. My youngest daughter went through a similar time in her life a few years ago so I think I understand what you are feeling.

I don't think you have anything seriously wrong and the way you are feeling now will probably change in the next year or so, but, you don't have to sit and suffer with it until then. It might be a good idea to see your regular doctor and tell him/her what you have been going through. In my daughter's situation we found that taking some medicine for a couple of years helped her a lot and by the time she was 17 she didn't need to take it anymore. She is now 24, a college graduate, married with a 7 month old baby boy.

I think if you tell your parents that you need to talk to them about a serious problem they will listen to you. Just be honest about how you have been feeling and ask them for their help. If they won't then find someone who will listen and help you.

Good luck.
You should definetly seek some psychiatric help, it's possible you are bipolar, or have depression. You may need to be on medications to help stabilize your moods and help you feel better. Good luck!
There's so much insanity going on these days and it can become overstimulating. Talk to your school counselor and/or a close family member who you trust won't tell your parents for now. It sucks that you can't confide in your parents-they may be adding to your depression. At least you're sensitive to what's going on around you and in touch with your body changes. Most people go on, day to day, doing the same ole' ****, watching the same ole' TV, and working the same ole' job all while being totally unhappy and doing nothing about it. You only live once-live happily 'cause life is good.
you are depressed for sure, possibly bipolar as well. get help now before it gets worse.

symptoms of bipolar disorder:
Sadness
Excessive crying
Loss of pleasure
Abnormal sleep
Low energy
Restlessness
Difficulty concentrating
Irritability
Loss of appetite or overeating
Feelings of worthlessness and hopelessness
Ongoing physical problems that are not caused by physical illness or injury (eg, headaches, digestive problems, pain)
Thoughts of death or suicide
Inappropriate sense of euphoria (elation)
Racing thoughts; talking too much
Extreme irritability
Reckless behavior
Abnormal sleep
Excessive energy
Out of control spending
Difficulty concentrating
Abnormally increased activity, including sexual activity
Poor judgment
Aggressive behavior
Things may not be what they seem. Everyday life is hard and you will come across people that will make you feel bad but those kind of people don't know what love is and have never felt love. Alot of people have a hard time sleeping it could be a medical problem instead of a mental problem. Believe in yourself more than that suicide is never an answer neither is homocide. There is no reason for you to hurt others for the way you are feeling inside. Maybe you need a girlfriend to get your mind off of these kind of thoughts you are having. Remember everyone has bad feelings because of the way things are in the world but start trying to make a difference and believe more in yourself. If you continue having these kind of thoughts you really do need to seek a Mental Health Counselor.
Hi, I think you shoud go and get help inmediately. Talk your parents and tell them everything you're feeling.
