I feel better today so far. You know when you've been to the movies, so you've been sitting in the darkness and been engrossed in the movie, and when you get out of the cinema you feel sort of...

Hi, I've never been in this thread before, but I guess I've never experienced such strong dissociation before. I was reading a manga that I used to read when I was younger and it was like it...

Thanks. It happened again today. I'm crying right now. I don't know why. I was reading a manga, needed to go to the bathroom, and when I looked in the mirror I had this horrible feeling of...

I can't stop crying.

Hi everyone. Wow, it's been a really long time, but I didn't know where else to turn about this. I'm not sure anyone will remember me, but here goes. I have a history of severe, recurring depression,...

I didn't have an operation during my eating disorder. However, no doctor takes the decision to do surgery lightly, and they would not do it if they thought it wasn't safe. It is definitely a good...

Some people respond almost immediately to antidepressants, but others may not notice any difference for up to a month after they start taking them, or six weeks for fluoxetine (Prozac). However, you...

Just FYI, my GP said the same thing to me about Dianette, but as soon as I came off it my acne started coming back (which is what I take it for), so I went to see my dermatologist and he said there...

For what it's worth, it sounds to me like you're doing great. It's always upsetting to realise that you'll never be that small again, even if you don't want to be. And even though when I tell friends...

But love is much more than passion. What about her love for her family and friends? She's prepared to give that up. And their love for one another seems rather shallow at times. I never really got a...

I think sometimes it helps to take a step back and ask yourself what you would say to your best friend if s/he was in the same position that you are in now. Would you tell them they're being silly...

I can't even imagine how much it must hurt to lose your mum. I'm so sorry for your loss. Have you thought about counselling? A lot of the time people don't talk about how they feel because the people...

I read for fun too. I don't analyse everything I read. But even when I do it doesn't ruin a book for me. I'm able to do both. I've just read a lot of criticism about the Twilight books so I've become...

Yes, of course you can. I'm not picking on Twilight, it's just that this happens to be a thread about that book, so it would be rather OT to talk about other ones. Of course there is a disparity...

No, the reason I'm saying that that some people are one sided and not open to discussion is that they've flat out said "if you don't like it, then go away". See the above post.
