Question by bladecherry: Help with therapists, over thinking, emotions???
Well basically for the past few years i have been over thinking so much that i consider myself paranoid, My friends tell me im paranoid, which is true as well as that i am always depressed and really irritable when around my parents.My parents don’t think much of me, i USED to think of suicide NOT anymore and cry a lot when im paranoid. I have a low self esteem i am always dizzy and becoming a total freak. I have never thought good of myself i don’t care and sometimes purposely made myself ill as a cry for help. I have been to the therapist many times but all she tells me is that im a massive therapist and i need to think positively, what she says to me sounds like crap. help?
sorry what i meant was the therapist tells me im a massive pessimist not a massive therapist.

Question by Gooz: Can anyone help me with how I am feeling these days?
About six months ago I was just devastated as my one and only best friend left to overseas. At the time, I was actually fine.. or maybe I was pretending to be fine. But I knew that deep down in my mind somewhere, something was missing. I knew that this world wasn’t going to be the same anymore. Sure, I tried making new friends and I actually went out partying more than ever. I met new friends to hang out with and every weekend we went out. But whatever I do now, it wasn’t enough for me to get rid of that “empty” feeling. So I started drinking and smoking pot every night before I sleep because if I didn’t, I would end up being awake for the whole night. I thought this was going to make the situation better but it didn’t. Apparently, I think I am addicted to alcohol and pot.
