Can I go to the ER for depression and anxiety? It's getting worse and worse and I can't suppress it anymore

If you're at risk of hurting yourself right now, then yes they'll stop you from doing so. But if you want something long term, you'd be wasting your time there.

You can, but they could put you in a psych facility. It happened to me. I wanted zoloft or something, that's it. Didn't have a doctor, so went to a random clinic first. Rather than write a script, they told me to go to ER/hospital where they have a psychologist. So, I did because I really wanted something to help. They put me away for a week or so. They only let me go when my insurance stopped paying (there was a cap to mental health stays, and boy were they sure to milk it). It was traumatic, honestly.

If you're really on the edge, by all means go to an ER. If you just want a little help, find a psychiatrist, or possibly start with your primary physician.

It seems like a chemical imbalance in my brain can be the source of my "self-destructive tendencies" and depression since I was 9.

Would a simple blood test be enough? What about my level of testosterone?

I don't want to go to a therapist yet because it will significantly harm my chances in future jobs if they find something.

the chemical action of depression is as yet unknown. negative on any chemical test. depression is always diagnosed by expressed mental symptoms. however you seem to be wondering whether your depression is chemical vs something non chemical. it is not.

i recommend seeing a neuropsych. they take a more physically oriented approach towards depression and will prescribe you a monoamine oxidase inhibitor or serotonin reuptake inhibitor.

regarding therapy I would not worry about future employers. most countries have laws protecting patient privacy. however in many places in USA it may hinder your ability to by a firearm.

See if your college has a furlough policy. They probably call it something else, but essentially it allows you to drop out for a term or a year with the guarantee of being accepted back in. You can use that break to sort out your thinking about what you want.

Can someone please tell me if you can understand the point I'm (yellow) trying to get across to the woman's (orange) comment?
Should I clue her in or do you guys of 4chan get it?

The original post was a woman asking why Jane Doe didn't turn herself in for arson or John Doe (she referred to as "other gentleman") either. Both Jane and John set the outside of a house /patio furniture on fire to get back at their ex landlord that in turn killed a baby in the house.

"Those kids didn't have proper guidance and stability"

So therefor because of the way they may or may not have been brought up (they're adults now) led them to make criminal choices? What would it matter, they're adults. Everyone is taught responsibility and to not burn houses down?

Should I move to a third or second world country since I will never get a job in my country( even minwage ones have 100s of people competing for 1 position in my area)? Our neoliberal government prevents me from getting welfare too. I just want some kind of job and shelter with which I could support myself and live securely. I dont care about GDP or being wealthy.

I have a chemistry degree but have no experience and have been a NEET for 4 years already. I think I should go to a country that has a lot of brain drain like one in eastern europe or SE asia. Not to mention employers will be happy that a westerner respects their country so much that they decided to move there.

Me: Male, long ass hair (pic and link related) and about to earn my bachelors in Criminal Justice with a Psychology minor. I am currently fine with cutting my hair to my shoulders but I am indifferent about the whole military cut that police usually have. I am interested in all areas of the CJ field, specifically probation and parole offices, but I was wondering what careers I could apply for where I could still have longish hair. Thank you

So I have 2 problems on hand, one's current, another's general.

First;
Just a little while ago I was getting feelsy and though I don't cry or anything, I've been, and currently have, getting really bad chest pressures and pain lately followed by muscle spasms or limbs going numb/seizing and difficulty breathing. It's not a recent thing, I've been putting up with it since I was around 10 or so with the limbs locking up and stuff. I feel like I should be more concerned about this than I am, so I'm wanting to start somewhere (here) to see if it's actually something that I should be concerned about.

Second;
So I've got some mental problems and I know I need help for them, but I'm 20, on my own and have literally no idea as to what to do.
I'm currently in college and I've tried to go to the centers on campus for something like this, but I literally get to the door and just seize. Just paralyzed with anxiety and can't do anything else but walk away. I try and force myself and my throat locks up and again, just feel like I get possessed to walk away.
The problems are things from my childhood that I know affect me, but don't know how to do anything about them by myself. When it comes to doing or having any sort of irl interaction with it, I just can't do anything. Just the thought of it, and added to that, facing and interacting with it, causes me to just freak out mentally and physically lock up.
I've talked to people in chat and they just say "huh you just gotta do it" but I feel like I'm in a 3 way battle between my mind, emotions, and body. Like when it comes to eating, my mind tells me that I NEED to eat, my body tries to, and emotions just take the reins and seize up my throat and make it impossible for solids or any thicker liquid.

Any advice for the either of these problems?

Anyone?

1) You should definitely see a doctor and explain this with as much detail as you can. It sounds like a panic/anxiety attack, but of course this is interpreting your text throught the internet.
2) Do you have family/friend you can trust to walk you to the office and sign up? They don't have to stay with you in the actual session, but someone to hold you to going through with it. It is really hard but that first step is well worth it. Life is really difficult when you're alone and sometimes you have to rely on yourself. If there isn't anyone nearby at the moment, muster up any courage and go without thinking. You won't regret it. Once you get in, you can also see if they can help with 1) if you indeed are having panic/anxiety attacks

I don't get it, it's like my dick is fucking broken. I almost never get fully erect when I'm with her despite being very attracted to her, and I cum fast as fuck. I don't have a very high libido, nor do I masturbate or watch porn a lot nowadays but at least when I'm alone I can get it fully erect.

I'm guessing it's some sort of performence anxiety but I have zero clue as to what I can do. She's supportive and all but just saying have fun and don't sweat it isn't actually going to help since I can't help it.

Up till now we just did lot of foreplay and dry humping and I've gone down on her a good amount of times but even when she gives me a handjob I can barely get it as hard as I can when I masturbate.

What do I do? I just want a normal functioning penis and this piece of shit doesn't even work when I need it.

do you feel worried about getting caught during sex?
erectile dysfunction can be your body thinking it's not safe to fuck, for a variety of reasons like her dad killing you if he finds out or a fucking sabretooth tiger lurking nearby. it's obivousky not related to actual reality but our bodies are wired for a very vicious and dangerous environment.

there's another cause for ED that is rooted in low self-esteem. basically your body assumes you're not the "alpha" of your tribe and that this girl isn't "yours", meaning that if you get caught fucking her you risk getting beaten up by the bigger, scarier monkey that usually fucks her.
again, very archaic and might or might not make sense to you.

Dont use the washroom more than once every 4 hours, people will notice that you're a freak
>>
If you're vegan don't even bother going. If you have fantasized about being with either of the hosts romanticly, never make eye contact which will be hard because they are the hosts after all. Dont shake anyones hand during meeting them for the first time if they're eating hand food because 1. They don't have time to wash their hands again before continuing and 2. Your hands will too be greasy from their gross greasy hands. If everyone else is standing and Your e the only one sitting, stand up, this will make you blend in more and disguise the fact you Are either lazy or an antisocial freak. If you know nothing about grilling then don't volunteer to try out the new grill or hold the grill master's tongs while he fetches a beer. Only offer to fetch a beer once through the gathering and do so near the middle end or else you'll be the beer mule the whole time. Don't be too loud but also don't be too white, no one likes either of those people.
And most important, don't have fun because you won't anyway since you felt the need to ask adv on 4chan for a gathering that doesn't even require advice but instead just basic human knowledge.

>in 6 months will be stationed in Germany for 2 years
>super excited about this, have wanted to go to Europe since I joined and Germany in particular is known as one of the best places you can be stationed in the military
>but also want to change jobs to cyber warfare operations(basically hacking)
>this would not only be far more interesting to me than my current job(tl;dr electronics maintenance) but is an easy ticket to a six-figure job in the civilian sector
>but in doing so I would lose my Germany assignment
>and get stationed in Texas, as that's where cyber operations are based
>I hate Texas
>also would have to extend my enlistment which I'm not crazy about doing
>but, $$$

Serious question. Why do "some" women completely ignore text messages, when you are in the dating process or getting to know someone?

It's happened many times, everything is going "great" and all of a sudden when you try to make plans, a girl ignores you.

Why? Just be direct and tell me you aren't interested. I do the same when I am dating some girl I don't want to anymore. Being direct is and honest and respectful.

If some girl directly said, "Hey, sorry Anon, I am not interested in you but best of luck!" I would be extremely thankful and respect her a fuck ton.

Why is it so hard for women (and some men) to do this? FUCK! You aren't even hurting peoples feelings, it's just so pussy. I am not saying some men don't do the same as well, but it seems more often in women, since they don't want to deal with confrontation or hurting someones feelings. BE DIRECT!

It's easier to ignore a guy than it is to say no.

>inb4 not all men do that
No, and not all women do it either.

Nothing you can do. Welcome to the world of dating. Girls are extremely fickle and will stop replying to you for no reason at all. That's why you must keep up the numbers coming in the dating game until you are solidly in a relationship.

My girlfriend is a lot to handle. Shes depressed, has weak lungs, a bad heart, pre-diabetic, nearly anorexic, and has a stomach condition that causes her to vomit blood regularly. She even tried to overdose on prescription pills back in april.
I work tirelessly to try to make her happy, which I am fairly successful so far. But now shes trying to argue with me that she should be able to cut herself because it feels good. I don't even know how to argue with her against it. It boggles my mind why she can't see why I don't want her doing that.
I don't know how to handle this..

Despite all her problems shes a very sweet girl and very loving. I just have a hard time handling her when she gets depressed.

What should I do? How should I convince her to not cut herself?

No serious why is she your problem? We pair up to be happy and to make each other better. Fuck her and she can ruin someone else's life
>>
>>18661821
Those are all non issues the real issue is she cantold handle being in control of her life and taking responsibility and not being a victim all the time. My girlfriend had the same issue and I can tell you it's a personal choice. She had to choose to be different. All you can do is be patient and hope. If you are patient like I am then one day you will probably be happy together, until then you adapt or you could give up and there's no shame in that

Also chances are you have issues too which is why you feel like she's your only choice. Maybe I'm projecting
>>
Pic related?
If so then it's very ironic.

Self harming is a sad addicting thing, she needs professional help with your support on the side. If you don't feel strong enough to be with her then of course youre well being is your first importance when it comes to things like this. Someone suffering from bad mental health can only start getting better by helping themselves first.

My bf doesn't know what to with me either but I think we've come to the conclusion that I just need him to calm me down and distract me from the problems he's unable to fix in the moment because again it's not his nor your responsibility unless you are the problem (?)
