Patient discussion about feeling free.
Q. I feel like crying! Hi. My name is Liam Lukas. I believe that I'm suffering from a major depression brought on by a multitude of factors. Stress, work, family, poor diet, etc. . .and it has affected me very deeply. I have bouts of sudden mood swings, feelings of worthlessness, thoughts of suicide, a lack of interest in favorite hobbies, no social activities, and lack of sleep patterns... I'm 33, male, and I feel I'm a burden to my family and feel like a failure. I feel like crying all the time (although I try and hid it by avoiding others).
The first and most important step to take is getting the appropriate treatment for your illness. You do not have to disclose to your boss that you are seeking treatment. I believe there are laws in place to protect employees from being terminated based on illness. Either way Anthoney is right.. your life is way more important than your job. Your health is the most important thing.. you will be of no help to your boss if you are not around. So please take care of yourself first.
I am not sure where you are but I would suggest going to the local emergency room and ask the treage nurse to speak with a crisis councellor, then enquire about a mood disorder clinic. Mood disorder clinics have group councelling, individual councelling and psychiatry. It will give you a councellor to speak to on your own and a group to share with and the psychiatrist to ensure you get the proper medications... Use that as a first step to regaining your self confidence...
Q. My child, who has dypraxia, passed both TOVA & BRC. Help, I don't want to put him on ritalin but feel pres Since age 4 my child has received OT, ST and Physiotherpy. He is now 81/2 and has difficulties at school. Last year, after years of therapy, we went to a private Neuro Developmental Physiotherapist and she diagnosed him with Dyspraxia. I thought that my son was good at sport, but when she asked him to do the simplest of task like stand on one leg, or walk one foot infront of the other, he had great difficulty. He has diffculty processing information or thoughts and turning them into actions. This is especially evident in copying from the blackboard. His handwriting is extremely poor, even after many years, at much expence, of intense OT. His attention span is very poor, he daydreams and shuts down in class. The slightest noise, knock on the door, ticking clock etc wil break his concentration. He has passed both TOVA and BRC test, yet I am still under pressure from the school to put him on ritalin. I feel his concentration & attention problems are due to his Dyspraxia. Help
I no an American lady who lived in the uk at the time and used ritalin the out come was that she regretted using it on her daughter as she had lost her real child due to the drug.
