Another day sent back home!

I am lost
I can't control my feelings and deep inner thoughts
I can't say or I'll get my butt kicked off this website
It's easy to think that no one will take this seriosly
Like no one is listen not even the big man aboth
I'm sent home for this reason
All I want is for someone to listen not to take me back to my problems
Far away apart from my friends and emenys
Feeling the need to say but got to keep my mouth shut
Three years and then how much longer
I feel the need too but something is stopping me
Got the idea and thinking but my head hurts
Don't want to get my parents in trouble for my faults
I see my life falling even more
But if I do where will I go to next...

When will the medication kick in?

Hi there,
You ask, "when will the medication kick in"?
Most, take 2 to almost 4 weeks, as many told you last week in the drug questions. It is a good idea though to keep in touch with the prescribing physician, letting him or her know how you are doing with the med., case there is a need for change of dosage or actual med.
Medication in adjunct with therapy can help and does help thousands, just takes a little time.
Therapy helps in so many ways for so many, one area is attitude adjustment, therapists can help guide you through different coping techniques, healthy distractions, I found just talking to a therapist just about anything that was running through my mind helped.
Talking with family is fine, but there is usually some parental bias, even can go unnoticed, where with a good T, there will be no bias, something like a neutral territory, and most are up front they will tell it like it is, no sugar coating, it can be frustrating sometimes, but also can be of help to move you in the right direction.
All this stuff can help and even work if you want it, the big part is co-operating with your mental health care professional.
I really do wish you luck with this all

Yup, I'm taking therpy and it's going some where slower then a snail. Oops someone has now stepped on the snail. But any way I'm angry that no one at school listened to me how I was feeling they sent me back home! the thing is I'm always feeling like that, so how can I work at school knowing something is wrong. Plus someone triggered me off saying that I'm horrid. What did I do? Then had a panic attack as a result of not knowing what to do and where to go. I like to help someone else instead of myself because it is well worth it to me!

Sometimes it's best to concentrate on ourselves, and our own healing first. How long have you been on meds, and how long in therapy now? TC Miss A... I know you're struggling.

But thats the thing I dunno who I am? Only others around see the real me and I don't! I'm on fluextine. (prozac) It's been one week on the stuff. Thepry has been two times I've been once a week 1 hour so slow and little time but I guess that is how it works. Been conselling at school for 7 times now really helped. But I like to focus on others more then me because it does help me in a weird way?

ah gee ((((Miss)))) patience... patience.. the medication has already begun to work, it depends upon your body's need as to how long it will take it to reach therapeutic levels. It has begun to work in your system, so take heart.

Talk therapy is not a quick fix. Focusing on others is a type of resistance in therapy. We all resist at times. It's ok to focus on yourself, not selfish. It can be terrifying though, to begin to see how we really are. I think you are strong enough to do it!

I am miss lonely
I have no body
Thats me Miss_L

Miss A, may i suggest that you use your computer skills to researching prozac and it's benefits and time lines? it won't be felt overnight. it has started working, you just can't tell yet. it's easy to have pity parties, but it's more productive to do something postive with your time. xoxo pat
