I am wondering if I can get some advice.(Semi Long, sorry I am bad at taking without details) I am currently living at home again, after I was in college. I am home because last semester I had a major depressive episode and stopped doing anything, starting really messing up school. My anxiety...

OK so I have major issues when it comes to sleep, I swear I have hypersomnia, which means I am excessively sleepy and sleep alot. I sleep something like 12 hours sometime a day, my normal time is like 10, and I am always tired, no matter if I get 12 or 6. I am lethargic and never want to do...

So I have no clue where to post this but, here it is: As a forward, This is not meant to depress anyone, or anything, it is a thought experiment on my part. So I have been thinking, what if nature is experimenting with humans, that is mental evolution. I think this because as humans, we...

I have some questions, I am sure have been talked about before, I have been given celexa, as a new medication. I have been on paxil for years, and though at higher doeses it helped, it made me a zombie when it came to emotions etc. At the lower dose I am on now, I am less of a zombie but a wreck...

I thought this was an interesting article, sadly it is only part of it, unless you have the magazine, I will look for the complete article or a similar one, but until then here is this link Depression's Evolutionary Roots: Scientific American

I need some advice. I am currently in college, 2nd year (though if you consider the other colleges I was at, then my 5th), and I am having a life crisis. I just can't handle school anymore, I can't handle the timed classes, then having to have things done etc, I have been going in and out of...

It is amazing how simple things like someone calling you worry about you, or someone helping you get your car out of the snow can make your day. Sadly the feelings don't last long but yea.

So I am feeling a little better today, I went and talked to a counselor on campus, and though nothing has happened yet, I am hopeful in the situation with getting a new place before next semester, I am not super hopefully about my finals coming though, and I am just plain tired. I have an...

So I am thinking about everything again. As I do at times. I have come to realize that I seem to have a limit in which once I get to that place I break. That is I freak out for a while. I have also realized that this limit is something that is going to effect my college life bad. See the first...

So I am currently in college, and I am rooming with what I considered a friend back in high school. Well of late I am becoming super frustrated with him. He makes all this noise, and when you tell him you are sleeping, he is like oh I thought you weren't here. And still half the time goes on to...

I was wondering if there is anyone on here that is from Colorado, mainly the southwest area, but any area is cool.

I seem to find friends that I really dont have much in common with or are jerks, that is if I find any at all. I have come to find the ones I have now aren't great. They like doing many things I don't, they use me for various things, such as free food. And yet because I want some friends, I put...

Ok so there is this girl in my class and I would like to talk to her more etc, but I simply can't, I have tried, but fail often. The advice is, I know her email address, school on that is, not hard to find, and I was wondering if I should write to her there trying to start a conversation, and if...

Would you rather ask a person that you like out on a date, straight up, that is going up to them and asking without really talking to them much before. Or would you rather jump out of a plane, with a parachute obviously.

I was wondering if people would share what happens when they have an attack in a social situation. What happens to me is that I start looping thoughts in my head, what if's mainly. I start looking at the time, and noticing it is going really slow. And to physical issues come up. One I have...

So I made a post in the depression forum but it sort of ties in with SA so I will make a post here too, and link them: http://www.socialphobiaworld.com/tie-in-with-sa-21555/#post214939 So tonight is another night in which my SA is holding me back. Of course it is Halloween and everyone is off...

So, I thought I would post on here about how much I hate holidays. What sparked this is most likely obvious, Halloween. Ok so here was my night, I wake up late in the day, as I do when I don't have to be up. I sit around till 6pm doing nothing at all. At 6 a friend comes over and tries to get...

I was wondering how many other people on here are really into physics or other "hard" sciences. Some being engineering, biology, genetics, neurology, etc. And for fun we will through in psychology too, though it isn't a direct "hard" science.

So I was talking to someone the other day, and we thought of this: What would happen most likely if say we got together in real life in a room, without prier talking? That is how would you most likely react to that situation. I thought it would be interesting to see what people thought they...
