Why do teens rebel?

Teens rebel because they want to be independent it's a natural instinct they are halfway between making their own decisions and not being able to. They are their own person. Even though you will try and stop them they will choose which way they want to go anyways. It is their choice of which way they want to pick. You want to stop them from making those mistakes but in the end they will learn one way or another. Still keep boundaries and guidelines but in the end they are the ones you make the decision.

What do you do when you miss someone so much that you want to kill yourself?

Find a way to fill up your time and not think about the person you miss so much. Don't kill yourself though, that doesn't help your situation. Remember that you are a human being and deserve to live. Hang in there

bipolar doesn't mean that...research it yourself on wikipedia as well as other depression to get a better idea, or maybe you just aren't getting enough sleep, um you sound kind of young but anyway being bipolar doesn't really run on a 12to12 to next 12 hrs clock you know-as in it doesn't run on a day and night behavior clock or a night then day moodswing-if I read your question right?

It's called jealousy and it is a normal feeling, many people experience it. But think about the good things that "you" have" that they might not have. Maybe they are jealous of you, something to think about isn't it.

What happens if you isolate a Borderline Personality Disorder victim from people?

Answer:

From my experience, when people with Borderline Personality Disorder are isolated or in their eyes "abandoned" from people, they freak out. It may have something to due with their early childhood, but most BPD's cannot stand to be separated from people for more than a few minutes even. It is extremely stressful for them. It causes them to panic and they usually find some way to get someones attention or company. They may get impulsive and start to self-harm or become suicidal to avoid this abandonment.

I wouldn't suggest doing this ever, unless strictly told to do so from the guidance of a psychologist.

What is a mood stabilizer with bipolar?

any drug that limits size of swings and postpones them.

What effects does the media have on teenagers that can lead them to depression?

Unfortunately, modern media leads children to believe that they should be able to have instant gratification for every impulse, and they are frustrated and disappointed when real life does not work like tv and the movies. Also, they are bombarded with messages telling them that they have to be beautiful to succeed, have to be rich, have to have the latest fad ..... it's tough to compete with all that when you're a kid!

Are manic depression and borderline personality disorder and sociopathic disorder and autism and Asperger's Syndrome all the same illness in different parts of the spectrum?

No They are completely unrelated, however some can be comorbid; existing together. For example, schizaffective disorder is a combination of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Comment on Comorbidity of Conditions with Autism and Asperger's SyndromeSeveral studies show that about 40% of people with autism or Asperger's Syndrome have one or more mental disorders, and others indicate 65%. Two studies indicate that almost 30% of people with autism or Asperger's Syndrome have a form of bipolar disorder. Some websites refer to a high correlation between autism and borderline personality disorder, but do not give a percent, whereas other websites claim that people with autism are misdiagnosed with borderline personality disorder because of similarity of symptoms, despite a difference in motives, feelings, and thoughts. For more information on conditions that are comorbid with autism spectrum disorders, use the link for The National Autistic Society (UK): Mental health and Asperger syndrome.

Nearly everyone has had times when they felt unhappy and wanted to be somewhere else. This does not mean you have a mental illness.

What part of Titanic sad?

Honestly this is a question about what you think but really the hole thing was sad. In the movie Titanic i thought the saddest part was how Rose says i will never let go. Another part that is sad but may just be me is how when Rose is on the life boat she thinks back and see the flare. That part made me ball like a baby. The Last thing is the fact of all the music. It is so emotional :( Titanic was a terrible disaster so really the hole thing is sad thought because so many people died.
