| That's a difficult one cos love is similar to obsession. The love song lyrics say things like 'cant get you off my mind' cos that's how it is, almost indistinguishable from obsession. How long have you known each other? We have known eachother for 4 years. Each of our relationships lasted about a m... |

| I was talking to a really nice awesome guy online and we were planning to meet up. But then another guy ruined it. I got a weird friend request. I was in a great mood and I really wanted to meet people. I accepted it but quickly just stopped talking to them because they were making me feel weird. I ... |

| I don't know what I feel but it's not pleasant. I am trying to listen to music to feel better. I feel just so unmotivated lately. I want to get up and do things. I just feel so overwhelmed. I just want to lay in bed. But that makes me feel worse but getting up is it's own thing. I do not know how to... |

| Crystal1414 thank you. I am curious, does it change your ability to play music, or how you feel about listening to music? Has your enjoyment or ease of reading changed? (If anyone else reading this has experienced a change I would also love to hear that) I dont think it changes my ability to play i... |

Do you have a history of making dangerous choices when you're not supervised? Has a doctor or therapist said that you require constant supervision? Sorry for so ... |

| I'm on a new medication soon. It's for anxiety. I'm sort of scared to go on another medication. I'd rather not say what it is. Just saying it stresses me out. Hopefully it will make me feel less anxious though. I might switch from abilify to something else. I feel very treatment resistant. I dislike... |

| I take 7.5 mg of abilify everyday. It's not a hard thing to do. I just dont like having to worry about it and having so many appointments. I like that it works but I want to learn how to do it myself. I guess mental illness isnt temporary though. Everyone in my family is forcing me to take my pill. ... |

Also I am told to not feel shame by the same people who get annoyed. It doesnt really help. I feel like people do not like me. I'm... |
