Suggest Treatments For Depression And Anxiety

My mind is all over the place. Sometimes I feel so down and awful and hopeless, like life is pointless and nothing will ever change, I cut occasionally and have considered suicide, I just feel so low and I struggle to sleep and often become very withdrawn. I thought it might just be depression but then other times I am out of control, I feel on top of the world and confident, I get energetic and impulsive and can't sit still or concentrate, I also become talkative and end up babbling nonsense. I get irritable and angry often and end up doing or saying things that I don't mean and is totally out of character and gets me into trouble and I feel bad for doing this which often leads to being sad again. If I get so upbeat and out of control then I can't be depressed too can I? I'm confused. Please Help me.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Your description is actually leading towards Bi-Polar disorder. But you could assume symptoms after reading about bi-polar disorder. That is the reason why psychiatrists / psychologists across the world are trained to diagnose differentially. Differential diagnosis helps them to diagnose your symptoms correctly even though you guide them.

You need to consult psychiatrist / psychologist, who then conduct necessary pathological / psychometric / mental disorder test so as to determine your exact problem and start suitable treatment.

I can help you in this aspect. Psychotherapy techniques should suit your requirement. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. You are depressed, of course. But I don't think it is clinical depression. The condition you are facing could just be disappointment. acute disappointment do produce symptoms as of depression. But those symptoms will not be short lived.

You need to get up and be active. You should look into the bright future and be positive. You feel you are worthless because you are not planning and executing according to your worth. Please rethink your strategy.
