It sounds like you have a lot of anger, etc., that has been brewing for a long time. Your best bet would be to seek therapy. I've had severe depression since I was a small child, but didn't get treatment till I was in my 20's. That's when I entered therapy for the first time, which included a stay in a mental hospital. That was the best thing I could have done for myself.

Therapy CAN help you get to the root of these issues. And therapy CAN help you control or even wipe out many of these problems. Please have your doctor refer you to a good therapist --- he will know the best therapist for you. So call your doctor -- I promise, you won't regret it.

Best of luck, and God bless. Hugs, Lee
Good advice been there in therapy for 26 years... so hopefully i have learned the skills to keep it reigned in now... but i am here for support in the mean time as i come off the med and learn to cope with whatever comes my way.
