have never been clinicly diagnosed i was put through a mental evaluation clinic but ran away becuse i was stubborn at 13. I now am looseing all my family and my 5 year relationship due to an unexplained felling i get. I out of no where fell the need to do what i call throwing a fit i just give in and go from rage to tears and felling isolated in 0-60 and i cant controll it all day sometimes not even atall. I fell the need to dull my senses by self medicateing first with beer then anything else i can use pot pills but thats where it stops for now. My greatest fear is going further in to the illegal drugs and ending up a junkie i cant stop though. I fell like evrybody hates me cuz im wierd i cant be comfortable anywhere not even at home with my boy friend. I just suddenly hate evrybodys guts then fell like they hate me i fell crazy what the hell is wrong with me.

When you've indicated leads me to believe that you do need to have a thorough medical, neurological and psychological evaluation. Certainly, what you are describing must be extremely distressing both to you and to everyone you must be around.


You indicated that, at age 13, you were to have some type of mental evaluation but that was not completed. Right now, you indicate you are medicating with available substances and you do not wish to become a junkie. I can certainly understand that, but you do need some help in order to avoid this.


I am not a M.D. and I do not know if there might be some medical problems involved here since some people who have low-level seizure disorders can exhibit some of these symptoms. Please have a thorough exam with, possibly, an MD, neurologist and a licensed psychologist.

Those anger bouts where you feel like you could physically attack the anyone about anything, is bi=polar. I had depression, bad. Twice my mind was strongly tell me to, just do it. When my son told the dr, huh Mom says she gets really really angry at times, I looked at him like he was mad. Then it would hit here & there and I was bouncing off the walls. Dr put me on lamictal, best drug I ever took. It worked great but once or twice I had a break though attack but nothing like before. Then never again. Bi-polar comes in several forms. Can me mild to severe. For the safety of the one's you love, and to keep the one's you love you must get to you're local mental health. If you have no income you don't pay, but get in fast before the goverment shuts those doors. You must make it known that you have severe anger outbursts so they can get you on med's asap. It's time consuming, hit and miss w/drugs but you have no choose. I hate pills but I had to take them a fwe years. Now, after 11 years no depression etc and no drugs for anger. Yeah, I was told I had a lower form of bi-polar. If anger comes without reason, thats what it is

The current situation of mental health care, unfortunately, in the United States has reached a point that is not only unacceptable, but dangerous. Persons who deserve mental health care should not have to consider becoming a public nuisance or being arrested in order to get that care. Something is wrong with the system that makes treatment available only under those circumstances.

Are there no social services agencies in your area that can help? I'm thinking, for instance, of some of the non-profit agencies or agencies run by community organizations, Planned Parenthood, various religious groups and national social service groups. I think, perhaps, that you would need some help from a social worker because they would be most familiar with any treatment programs that might be available to you. Please reach out to any social service agency in your area and find someone who can give you some help. As an additional aid, you can also contact your local Congressperson's or Senator's office and explain your plight.

agree patricia i just dont even know how to start i was a ward of the state from 12 to 18 and they wanted to help but i was scared so i ran back to me ma even though they took me. To be honest im worryed about getting help becuse of that what if im in trouble? im willing to try tough and have recently talked to a company in my area called comunity works theyr placeing me in g.e.d. classes and helping with work. So maybe i can get help here too maybe i can put a name to the enimy who attacks me daily. I realy apriciate your advice and i apriciate sick of sicks input aswell. i never considered that being an issue i always thought maybei was a skitzo or just panic for no reason
