I everyone. I'm here to learn what I can about depression and anxiety. Thanks.

I have to do some research for an essay in my class (and I'm also personally wondering)...

What kind of health coverage do you guys get for mental health? Does your insurance cover it? Do you pay out of pocket? Compare those who live in the United States (as I do) or those from Europe and elsewhere.

What kind of treatments are easily available to you? What treatments do you need that you have trouble ...

So I hung out with the ex this week and we didn't fight at all :)


Sadly I think the reason may be is because I slept with someone else during the week.

However, it made me feel more secure and balanced. How ###$ up is that???

I don't know what to do. Am very down. :cry: Been trying to get some help with this and now feel rubbish. Got referred by psychiatrist to a psychotherapist.

I am new to this board and I will try and make this brief. I dated this girl briefly while in college years ago. She was in love with me but I did not give her much attention because she seemed too high strung. Well, fast forward 30 years. We connected again via Facebook about 3 years ago. I am married and so is she. Lets just say that my marriage at the time, after ...

Hello-

I've lurked on this message board, as well as another, every once in a while.

I have been married for over 14 years. My husband has lied even when we were dating. Most his lies were to make him look better, to impress people.

Early in our marriage, he lied about taking money out of savings to gamble. I confronted him- he confessed. Since then I have controlled the finances. The lying issue wasn't ...

tried to be a home for a 16 year old orphaned boy (fell apart when he and my now 14 year old daughter fooled around sexually)
plus wife ...

Hi everyone!
So I know that there has been some previous posts about this, but I figured that the ones posting them have already found a recovery partner. My point is, that I would really like a recovery partner too. I want to beat this disease so bad, and I believe that having someone to share your worries, troubles and feelings with would really make the recovery a lot easier. So if there's anyone out ...

One of my very best friends has suffered from treatment resistant depression in conjunction with Bipolar for 10 years+, and has recently started receiving Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Treatment. He is keeping a YouTube diary of his progress, and would certainly love to share his experience with other people about the process, and answer any questions. His youtube username is 1nerm23. Thanks, and the best to everyone. ...
