Hello:

I am new to this forum and a little scared. I have been in recovery from alcohol addiction for several years. This past week, I made a choice to use Vicodin and Percocet. I have taken three tablets a night for the past five days. I can see where it is leading already and am stopping today.

Should I expect severe withdrawal? I know it's been a short time, but it has been at ...

Hiya, I have suffered from bulimia for over two years now, and am worse than ever. I have been researching it on the Interent, and recently came across a bunch of studies done that put forward this theory that bulimia can be likened to a sexual experience in the way it provides instant gratification. etc. I'd be really interested to learn more about this theory; can anyone provide help with this?

Hi, I'm Nikcole &I have earlier topics from last year on this forum having to do with my sexual abuse. Well, lately I have several problems with this... I have major Anxiety, Depression, and PTSD.

Okay so here it is. Have any of you ever been treated for depression with that thing that shocks you or whatever? I think that sounds really scary. I couldn't believe they'd do that to people. How could it help. If anyone here was treated with that, did it hurt really bad and did it help you mentally?

Another thing. I'm constantly hearing bad ...

My boyfriend is emotionally / verbally abusive. He says things like I'm worthless, or doesn't want to hear what I have to say, or whatever.

When I deal with my boyfriend, I am just sapped of energy. Everything becomes an argument, everything I say is an "attack", he gets moody, irrational, starts blaming me. I used to think it was a problem with ME, that I was causing it. Now I see it is a ...

I've been on and off of several different types of depression and anxiety meds for over 6 years. As angry as it makes me to have to have a "crutch", I've never been a stranger to mental disorders... I can't remember a time when I did not have some kind of phobia or severe frustration where others did just fine. I am more angry right now, in fact, than depressed... but I know it will ...

Initially it was great I would ...
