Hello,

My son is 12 years old and has been diagnosed with OCD. He's always been a perfectionist and anxious about doing everything "right", but it started spiraling out of control last summer. He got really into religion. I figured it was just a phase and when he came to terms with his beliefs he would relax. The next thing I knew, he was constantly saying prayers under his breath and doing little rituals that ...

I was diagnosed with anxiety over 2 years ago, for around the past 3 or 4 years I have been creating an alternate reality that only exists in my bedroom. I lost my dad almost 5 years ago to illness which is what my anxiety is related to and stems from. This alternate reality is filled with people I look up to, mainly youtubers I admire and wish I was friends with. They have changed ...

I’ve been being stalked and it’s getting old. I had a guy shoulder bump me, hover over me and quietly say “punk, you ain’t going anywhere while at work. Damn right I’m not and thanks for your money. I had another incident while taking a lunch where three guys took all the seats around me. I said nothing and when I was finished I stood up and they all stood up in unison, I had ...

I met with a new therapist at the end of last week and I apparently have pretty serious ADD. That on top of already having issues with dissociation/depersonalization, depression, OSDD, and anxiety makes things make a lot more sense...
But I also will most likely need to change/get new medication. And learn how to manage/cope with what feels like a growing mess.
How on earth do I manage all of this together?

I'll try to keep this short with the initial issue. Please ask questions to guide me to a fuller context. We are being terrorized by a Borderline w/dementia in my extended family. All mostly older here. She's the oldest. There are daily suicide and false allegation threats. My 80 year old ailing Uncle is being threatened, screamed at and ridiculed daily by her and it is wearing heavily on him as he he tries to ...

Certain co-workers are currently making the environment at my workplace a very, very difficult place to be. From Thursday until now, weighty dissociation episode aside, I've been on a constant wave of being either incredibly angry or incredibly anxious. I've talked with my supervisor about some of the people who have been causing the issue and he plans on sitting them down to talk with them. I've apologized and owned messing up things or missing ...

My relationship with League of Legends borders on unhealthy. And it's all my fault.

I don't know why, but I have intense mental issues. On top of Asperger's Syndrome or some other sort of high-functioning autism that makes socializing nearly impossible, I cannot play games without getting emotionally unhinged. I do not like dying. I do not like losing. I do not like anything that is not exactly what I want to happen and how ...

I have a severe fear of Asbestos (the pink and yellow insulation, years ago I got some on me and I read up about it and now I think it's always on me I even imagine itching from it, I can't touch anything in my house and I can't even touch my walls , I don't know what to do, I can't afford anyone to talk to...please help

Hello people,

Not in a very good place at the moment.

I’ll try and summarise my position:

I’m 37. My dad is a clever man; my mum I think is mentally retarded.
Mum psychologically abused me for years. Suffered physical beating often at her hands.
Dad taken out of my life. Never really saw him much.
Bullied sometimes at school.
Never had a girlfriend until I was 20.
I almost always seem to misunderstand instructions. ...
