I am 24 and I went through a rough period in my life where I was diagnosed with Major Depression, Borderline Personality Disorder and Post traumatic stress disorder. I have attempted suicide numerous times and I’ve been hospitalized involuntarily because of it. A judge even ordered me to be hospitalized for 30 days. Even though the last time I was hospitalized was 2 months ago, can I purchase a gun ? Thanks
A few months ago I was in a car accident. It was not a serious one, evidentially, however it scarred me nonetheless.
Since then I have been having nightmares, and an immense fear of being in a car. As well as a back pain that seems to enjoy radiating pains down to my feet (which I have been to physio for)
Furthermore, I have been dealing with bi-polar disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, what seems to be "agoraphobia", and anxiety attacks.
Because of this I have secluded myself from many friends, and have began to fail horribly in my schooling. Despite the immense amount of effort I put forth trying to study.
I have seen a counsellor recently, but her lack of a true office made me quite uncomfortable. We would meet during lunch and have "meetings" in her…dirty….car while we ate lunch.
She has recently abandon me anyways. I have been waiting to receive a call back and never have.
It’s gotten to the point now where I no longer have the will to live with myself.
I have a fear of taking medication again due to past experiences.
Sorry for the length of this, but does anyone have any tips on bringing myself back to what is deemed "normal"?
Or at the very least expand my memory to the point of being able to be successful in classes once again?
Thank you so much.
I must also add, it is very difficult to get any form of therapy around where I live.
Thanks everyone
It’s agoraphobia, not claustrophobia. I’m claustrophilic if anything 
I am unable to be outside on my own, which makes exercising such as going for walks very difficult.
I am 23 and have attempted suicide numerous times by overdosing on my meds in the past few months. I was diagnosed with Major depressive Disorder, Post traumatic stress disorder and Borderline personality disorder. My overdoses have landed me in Intensive Care Unit, in Cardiology and in two coma’s. Doctors have said that any more meds, and my body can’t take it anymore. So all my meds were stopped. They said I couldn’t be trusted with my own meds.
I went to see a different doctor and got more meds. Now I only have 69 pills left and I see a therapist weekly who Thursday, threatened to call 911 if I didn’t give her all my pills. I didn’t give her any and I have an appointment with her on Monday. She says that she’s concerned about my mental state and she feels I should be in the hospital. Can she call 911 because she thinks I can take my pills ? She said that my past history has proven that I overdose on meds when I get sress or overwhelmed or tired
And what happens if I just leave if she calls them. If I get in my car and just get out of here. I mean, since I have a history with the police and they’ve been here everytime that I overdosed, would they look for me or would they let me do what I need to do ? And I don’t want them to look for me at all, would that be possible ?
Should I go see her Monday.. I’m afraid she’ll call 911 when I go see her.
If she calls, can I just leave and have them not look for me.. Would it just be one police car looking for me so that my chances of not being found would be high
And the police have een here everytime that I have attempted suicide, so would they think it would just be another attempt and not worry
I don’t want to go back to the hospital
I am 23 and I have overdosed numerous times. I have been in Intensive Care, and in two coma’s. I’ve been admitted to the psych ward numerous times and diagnosed with Major depressive disorder, Post traumatic stress disorder, Anxiety and Borderline Personality Disorder. Whenever I have attempted suicide, both the police and ambulance has been here and they’re still in contact to make sure I’m doing okay and any little thing and they freak out. I just want to pack up and leave. I’m 23 so I am of legal age, but they even said that if I leave, they’ll find me and bring me to the hospital. They say I’m not well enough. Can they seriously do something just because they think I am a danger to myself and because I have a history of attempting suicide. Just because I’ve attempted suicide a dozen times since the start of the year , doesn’t mean I’ll do it again. I’ve just had it. So If I just leave, can they seroiusly look for me and than bring me to the hospital ? This isn’t fair
My friend is a former Marine going through a divorce and suffers from PTSD (Post traumatic stress disorder) after serving in Iraq. He’s worried he won’t be able to obtain custody of his two kids because of this, is this true?

I feel really suicidal today.
I was raped a month ago and since than, things have been hell. I attempted suicide 4 times, the last time was two weeks ago, and I was in a coma for three days and in the psych ward for three days.
I had overdosed on medication. Last night I went to get my prescriptions refilled so I have a lot of meds with me now and I want to die.
I am trying to get help from my psychiatrist and the sexual assault center.. and my psychiatrist now is having me re-assesed by a different doctor for Borderline Personality Disorder. It’s just diagnosis after diagnosis , it doesn’t end. All my diagnosis’s are.. Major depression, anxiety, Post traumatic stress disorder, post partum depression, OCD, it doesn’t stop
I can’t deal with all of this. I feel as if people are just putting a label on me and that’s it.
I’ve called the sexual abuse clinic twice where they’ve called the cops and ambulance on me twice because I took a bit to much medication.. so I can’t call them back.. And I don’t want to go to the emergency room. I feel stuck
And yesterday, the woman at the sexual assault center said she called Department of Youth Protection on me because I have a 4 year old daughter and because I attempted suicide. I mean she should be helping me with the abuse. My mom and dad are helping me with my daughter so much, and just ..this new thing with youth protection, I can’t deal with it
I have the pills right beside me and I want to end it. I just don’t know what to do
im 31 and have suffered an abusive bullying past , a very traumatic life , missed out on everything people take for granted : being employed, studying, getting qualifications – forming relationships , all never happened with me.
i get angry at myself when i think back to how i was extremely sensitive and passive growing up, and in early adulthood, and i let people bully me, abuse me, make me feel bad about myself – who i am – let them ruin my self esteem – let them play mind games towards me to destroy my confidence etc.
and i never asserted myself towards them, never stood up to them, i let the victimizers do it because i was scared at the time.
no wonder im i grew up hating myself, could never form relationships because i had little self esteem and felt too bad about myself – developed rage and anger problems towards people – antisocial problems , conduct problems , borderline personality disorder – post traumatic stress disorder .
ive improved greatly with all of that and i have been seeking help for years, are determined to achieve a life and goals for myself inspite of everything i went through.
but , how can i live with that ? that i let people abuse, mentally abuse , victimize me ? let them do that to me ? let them define who iam and catagorize me ? let them damage me so much so my confidence disappears ?
i feel so enraged to think about it, my confidence and assertive skills have improved , but i still struggle with rage and very low self esteem.
one guy said on the samaritans helpline in an annoying british condescending voice ” sounds like youve took a battering in life ”
i was so angry i verbally threatened him went off in rage at him, then he laughed , and hung up.
am i weak the fact ive let people damage me this much throughout my life ?
does it mean im inadequete ? the fact people made me feel worthless throughout life ?
My grandmother on my father’s side dropped dead at 40 while anging clothes from a massive heart attack with no previous signs.
My grandfather (also father’s side) had bypass surgery after a heart attack when he was fifty and numerous surgeries since then (he’s now 70).
My father had his first heart attack when he was 32, then has had bypass surgery 4 times since then, twelve years ago (inlcuding quadruple bypass).
On my mom’s side nobody ever has heart disease (except my aunt who has slow heart rate and a weak heart).
I am 22 years old, have already had two children (preeclampsia with both). I am very overweight, weiging 270 lbs. for the last 2 years. My BP is good (avg. 130/73), and so is my cholesterol (total is below 200 level, but my good is a little low and my bad is a little high). I have very fast resting pulse, and occasionally my heart will skip beats (like a record skipping). Also, random sharp stabbing chest pain.
Even though I’m young, could I have heart disease, or could it be from my severe panic disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder? I know I need to lose weight (WORKING ON IT), but what are the chances my heart is "bad" or that I am in danger because of it? Thanks for any help!!!
Is this anxiety/panic/PTSD related?
Could it be heart disease?
Does my age mean anything regarding risk factors for heart disease?
