Tylenol is toxic to the liver. Taking that much could damage your liver, perhaps permanently. You should always follow the directions on any medication to avoid harming yourself. Taking too much medicine does not make you feel that much better; it gives you more side effects.

Notorious inaccuracy as a diagnostic tool and very time consuming and intense. The process however opens up dialogue which can lead to theraputic results.

lots of people suffer from social angzity (that's not spelt right im dyslexic sorry :)) that's when you feel nervous and sometimes short of breath in social situations the best way to tackle this is to slowly interduce yourself to social situations one step at a time start with something easy like talking to strangers and force yourself to progress along until u feel comfortable and don't worry like 40% of people hav in at one stage

"Animal Repetitive Behaviors" is caused by stress, boredom, or depression. Signs of "ARB" could be; pacing backwards and forwards, head bobbing, rocking, repeatedly retracing their steps, sitting motionless or biting themselves.

It depends upon how the imbalance manifests itself. It might be most noticeably reflected in erratic behavior or in extremes of mood. It also might be more obvious to others than it is to you yourself. As for a physical feeling, this is unlikely, unless you take into account the physical malaise or generalized pains associated with depression.

You don't take depressants. You take anti-depressants, which counters being depressed.

They were in a manic phase when the affair happened.

when the psychosis does not have an organic basis, but originated from an external source

ex. the child ate the led paint off the wall and later developed psychosis

his psychosis was not organic but functional because the led pain may have cause it

You will not be able to cure this person. They have a serious illness. There is no point in living in that uncertainty. See a counsellor and start making plans to leave. You owe it to yourself to be happy. I am yet another writer experienced in living with a manic depressive person who also self medicates. When we went to the doctor about this issue she did nothing to help. Actually, she made things worse but administering self diagnosis in which she is an MD and not a mental health professional. She gave him an anti depressant which made his manic flare out into rage attacks. Then she added more pain medication since he continued to complain about pain from work. We told her he using these meds to self medicate and at times alcohol to bring him down from a manic. I went to see the author of " What goes up" a newer book about a manic spouse who eventually committted suicide. Her experience was like mine and she herself was a social worker with no one listening to her about her own spouse. These people are charmers, and often what they do privately does not show the same was in public. Often additional mental health issues come with this especially if you notice their own family in denial about these matters. My husband has gotten worse over the years. He denies any problems other then it is me or his children but never him. He has no empathy for others, sleeps in our masterbedroom alone, allowing me to come in occasionally. He helps with nothing and when manic with rage strikes, everything is destroyed. My children have all moved out now and do not even come home for holidays because he is either moaning and laying in a bed or up and raging manic behavior and it destroys all our holidays. I have not had one Christmas in 15 years because of him. Loyalty or not this is a behavior that no human needs to endure. Many people are sick but when they ride the fence and show others their con job of lies about how bad it really is and when a doctor can actually play co dependent and make matters worse, There is nothing more to be done. My children know no peace. My health takes a beatting from his insanity. Your life is worth more then this..........this man has had three wifes now and I am the first to hang on this long since 1987. When is enough enough ? It is not just about credit cards, those are easy to stop. It is all the other insanity and lack of love and a life. Don't tolerate it. There are sane people out there willing to be partners. Elizabeth read that book WHAT GOES UP......... Divorce is your decision because living with a manic depressive person can be difficult at best. I always believe (other than abusive behavior in a married relationship) that we are in marriage for the long haul. There is no guarantees as to which mate is going to become ill or with what. It's so easy to run away when things get a bit tough, but you sound like a strong person and want to make things work between you and your spouse and also you reflect being a made that is loyal. Firstly, see your family doctor (your spouse doesn't have to go with you for the first appointment) and see what your options are. There are medications that can certainly help your mate over-come manic depression, but they need to stabilize on medications first in order to concentrate on the counseling that comes next. CUT UP ALL CREDIT CARDS! Most Credit Card Companies want their money and would rather work with you to help you pay off your debts than not get the money at all. Write the Credit Card companies and explain the situation and then ask for a lower percentage rate on your outstanding debt. They will reduce the percentage rate (by law!) As long as you don't own an expensive home, own several cars and go on vacation, but you are basically just making it from pay check to pay check Credit Card Companies will work with you if you can pay the minimum payment with the new low rate of interest. This way you will keep your credit rating up. Don't let your mate have ANY credit cards and give your mate an allowance in cash if it's possible. When I deposit my husband's pay check into the bank I know how much free money we have and first I pay our bills, then I put a little into an emergency fund and then I divide what is left between my husband and I. That's our allowance! Sometimes it's a good amount and other times we're lucky if we can take in dinner and a movie. If you follow the above steps and get your mate in for proper medication and some counseling there is no reason your marriage can't become successful. If your mate refuses help then it's up to you to decide if it's worth the pain of going through all this and perhaps you need to move on. Make sure you make your feelings clear to your mate. Good luck Marcy * In the US an adult (spouse or otherwise) cannot legally prevent another adult from using credit cards or obtaining other sources of credit unless said adult agrees, has granted a power of attorney or the concerned adult (spouse) has been awarded adult guardianship. They cannot take the credit cards from the adult or destroy them or close the account without the legal authority or permission from the account holder even if the accounts are joint marital ones. To do so arbitrarily can result in serious legal consequences for the person acting against the non compliant spouse. The best option for the spouse to protect herself is to consult with an attorney concerning the "innocent spouse" laws for the state in which she resides.

Any Depression therapy works well , when the stat of mind is know and the patient is quit frank with the doctor, councilor.

Everybody's brain works differently and some medications may not help (like Prozac for me) so you have to find a medication and correct dosage that works for you and your particular situation. If you really want to see how long, I would suggest that you talk to your doctor, because they will know more about it than anybody off the street.

It would be necessary to see a mental health professional to get an accurate diagnosis. There are several subcategories of bipolar disorder, each with differing degrees of severity. Some symptoms of bipolar disorder are also found in other mental illnesses.

It's not that we lie. At the time of when we tell you, we believe it to be true, but as our moods can be unpredictable- our answers are sometimes distorted by temporary feelings.

Or, maybe some do intentionally lie a lot. Being emotionally instable makes a person self conscious and so some people may give answers to avoid conflict, or to seek approval. It's dependent on the individual.

Yes, in some cases, anxiety and depression do go hand in hand, some anxieties are worse than others, but usually people with depression do get anxious or apprehensions in certain situations.
