Firstly, well done for being open and brave enough to admit to your life's big problems. This is the first step towards getting help; admitting your need.
Secondly, you have a superb resource, the web, to seek answers to these things when it is too hard to talk to people who find these conditions hard to understand, or to get suitable advice when these things cause distress [often after doctor's visiting hours!!] But you must seek help after from professionals who can put you on a helpful course of improvement. Maybe start with some good web resources to inform and educate yourself on the conditions; sometimes we can feel hopeless and looking through the web info we can see that there is treatment available; there IS hope. You may feel alone in your troubles right now but the more you read the more you put to rest false ideas. Knowledge is power. Some sites have excellent testimonies from past sufferers who felt hopeless but have come through to a better life. These inspire us with hope. Maybe there is a local group of fellow sufferers of some of these conditions who meet with knowledgeable supervisors/group leaders. This can be a fantastic way to address your worst worries in a supportive non-judgmental atmosphere. Who knows what great help you can find? But you must start looking. Even starting this simple step means you are taking positive steps to gain help and you feel more hopeful and empowered. Keep talking to professional people who are trained to diagnose and advise on conditions. Sometimes you can talk to people and they mean well, but their advice may not be so great. People with bad depression are sometimes made to feel worse by their well-meaning friends and relatives when they say things like "Cheer up, things aren't that bad. Go and have a good night out." The depressed person is INCAPABLE of getting out of their depression by 'pulling themselves together' and need better advice. Anyway, here are a few web links to begin to explore [some are Australian but it doesn't matter; the advice may still be a good start]... http://www.ocdcentre.com/?gclid=CJjHqbjn6pECFQsUiQodBVwrow http://www.anxietyaustralia.com.au/anxiety...rders/ocd.shtml http://www.beyondblue.org.au/index.aspx?li...CFQNZiAodgmxpqw Hope that you move into the next phase of your management of your problems. You are already on the road by admitting your need. All the best. --------------------  |

Something which MIGHT help, is good old fashion Omega 3 fish oil. I have been taking Omega 3 fish oil for years now purley for the health benifits
 It improves concentration , memory and learning - and does a very good job at it too.The basic building blocks of our brain are made up from fatty acids,contained in these fish oils! I have noticed a much improved memory, and cogntive thinking since taking them. My test score for my course recently was a whopping 95% which i was quite proud off. Of course fish oil is just a vitamin, and no magic pill. I have been takeing them with a multi vitamin for a number of years and I would always carry on doing so just for good health This could be a natural approach to makeing a positive step for your future Here is a link to a good manufacturers website ; http://www.equazen.com/default.aspx?pid=23 Maybe talk to your doctor about general nutrition and vitamin suppliments. I can tell that diet really can have a positive impact on your health -------------------- mysql> SELECT * FROM master_name WHERE ((firstname = 'Paul') AND (lastname = 'Gilbert'));

Look at it this way - remember how 3-4 years ago your views on life were totally different? Some goals seemed so far away, and look at you now, you play a guitar, go to school, on your way to get that dimploma - that's a great accomplishment, and all your problems in the past seem so far away and irelevant now right?
And if you can only imagine what would you think about all the things that are happening in 2-3 years from now on? They will look small and irrelevant then too! The point of the story is that your problems now are maybe big if you think of them as big. If that is the case, you can make that change, you can make yourself happy again. Of course difficult times in life takes tim, and it may pass another year or two before you finally manage to make all your problems go away, but it will definitely make you a better person then, a person who is learned by all the hard experience it had in younger days. You have 17 years, those are tupicaly the years when everybody have problems and issues, it is simply the way people are made, our brains are developing heavily and we start to think diferently etc. So don't be so scared and sad my friend, it will all be OK, practice the guitar, learn the school, and everything else will come before you even notice it.

See your Doctors about it. For problems like this it takes correct adjustment of environment or medication.
I think you should strongly demand your doctor to find a medical solution. It's as sad as it is true but it's not unlikely that people with ADHD or other similar disorders will find other efficient means for self treatment which leads to drug abuse, a life of crime and prison. The self treatment is amphetamin (an up) that helps summon impressions and thoughts for a while. The big idea is that the dose should be stable, self treaters will increase the dose and that's where it goes wrong. That's only the short sum up but A Dr who knows his business will know this and suggest the correct medecine for you. Search until you find one! -------------------- My bands homepage
