i'm starting to get nervous for this weekend when my parents come to visit. im scared they are going to question me with stuff and just worry if i'm okay to stay at school. they are supposed to meet with my therapist monday for a family session, but i havent been able to get in touch with my T cuz she's away to tell her that i don't want them coming. so im getting nervous i wont get in touch with her and they are gonna end up coming

ive been getting frustrated so easily. the little things get to me SO much. lately people have been saying things to me that just get me so madd!!!! ugghhh if you dont have anything nice to say then they shouldnt say it at all. but some people just dont get that

and ive been taking prozac and still feel no difference. im stressed with school probably failing, like always. grrrr things are just not going my way.ok ill stop talking now.

Ranting is ok.. better to do it here than to say things you don't mean elsewhere.

How long have you been on prozac? It can take quite a while for you to feel a difference and lots of times friends and family will notice a change in you before you do. Hang in there...

I'm also in school and the demands of school and family and work (when I was working) can really pile up. It sounds really hokey (sp?) but exercise does help. Keep you chin up.

Remeber to breathe...
Thanks for this!

I am sending you lots of hugs

Is there anyway that you could leave a message for T that maybe she could get before your session so at least she is aware of how you feel. I know that it may seem hard but maybe at the beginning of the session you could calmly state that you don't really want them there and explain how them being there makes you feel.

lmg , i'm glad you are talking about what's worrying you. rant all you want, i'll listen, and a lot of us here at pc understand how you are feeling.
the prozac may take a while to really get into your system...try to wait it out. i hope it helps you as it once did me. i felt like a big truck (Depression) was lifted off my chest when the prozac kicked in. for real, i would have this weird feeling like something was being lifted up. it was...it was the prozac going into effect.
if i remember correctly your T will get back in time for you to tell her for your parents not to be at this session. i believe you have legitimate grounds to request this family session to be cancelled. so keep up the good courage to do that! then have that private session with your T to dicuss how you feel about the session being set up the way it was. you are not a minor so YOU have rights she must respect. it's the law and she must abide by your wishes.
as for the ppl that are being troublesome, they don't get what you are going thru. lucky for them that they aren't in your shoes. it's difficult to disregard those ppl but try to realize they don't get it, at all. sorry they have upset you.
i you no matter how you feel! you are an intelligent young woman going thru a rough time. i know it will improve, i know you are doing your best...so try to be gentle and kind to yourself...don't beat yourself up about this...you're trying to get better. what more could one ask? i'm very proud of your you.

Hi lmg103. I guess this is the place to rant, don't worry about that.

I know what ya mean about people saying things that get to ya. Most people just don't get it. Like you said, "if you have nothing good to say, don't say anything"....but no, people just gotta throw in their 2 cents. And most of those people shouldn't be talking.....they're more screwed up then us most of the times!

I hope you feel better.....

yes it might take time. Also remember, when your T is back talk to her about it , she may up dose or do something else too!

I get frustrated really easily now. I figure it's because so much crap has happened to me now I just get pissed that ANOTHER thing has happened. Try your best to be nice to yourself. Don't get mad at the little things - rather than getting frustrated try to go out with friends, or try to do something "more fun" than normal. Take things in stride, you've been hurt, for whatever reason, and unforunately it'll take time (but at least that means you can get better!)
