Five years ago you would have been 16 years when the last stage of adolescence beckoned and you would have needed to resolve any childhood issues (like this sexual abuse you talk of among others), once and for all. It appears that you have lived with that and therefore there could be important things to be taken care of soon. This could all lead to depression (anger-related) and for some reason, you have turned the anger inwards and that is propositioning the suicidal tendencies. You must, therefore, meet with a counselor soon and if that person recommends a doctor you must comply with the medication too. It is also advisable to take your parents to meet with the counselor to help identify the childhood issues and also to know about the sex abuse. You have been a victim and need not blame yourself in all this. But it is important to face all the repercussions of sharing your experiences to a professional and in front of your parents. You will find it a great relief and will immediately feel better for it.

Hello Psychosis can occur in a wide range of conditions. First of all the concept of CURE is over rated. If you have ever had common cold, or a fever, and taken medicine for it, you are able to over come the episode and get better. But your are NOT CURED. Cure means to never have the same Problem again. You may even have the common cold again. Like wise psychosis can be treated. Cure is a wrong word. Certain causes of psychosis can be treated very easily (medical causes) while others take a little while. Ideally medication and therapy should be combined together for best result. Good luck.

Dear user, Anxiety disorders are a category of mental disorders characterized by feelings of anxiety and fear, where anxiety is a worry about future events and fear is a reaction to current events. These feelings may cause physical symptoms, such as a racing heart and shakiness. There are a number of anxiety disorders: including generalized anxiety disorder, a specific phobia, social anxiety disorder, separation anxiety disorder, agoraphobia, and panic disorder among others. While each has its own characteristics and symptoms, they all include symptoms of anxiety. Anxiety medicines alone cannot cure anxiety disorders mainly because medicines do not alter behavior. Behavior change and Continuous practice of the changed behavior cure anxiety. I suggest anxiety education, progressive counseling and progressive psychotherapy. I assure you complete cure.

Hello lybrate-user Here I am suggesting you some natural tips go for it and side by side consult any Psychiatrist and Psychologist 1. Anxiety, in my experience, wasn’t a disease. It was a feeling that I had never been equipped to manage. That’s exactly what I tell people these days when asked about my anxiety. I never “cured” it, I’ve learned how to “manage” it. There wasn’t anything actually wrong with me, at least not in the “I have cancer and I’m slowly fading with each day that passes” kind of sense. I was just experiencing elevated levels of anxiety for the first time and I had no idea how to manage. For most of my life, I had been living in a reactive state. If something felt off, I went to the doctor and blasted it away with the best that modern medicine had to offer. It was time to get proactive. Looking at my lifestyle, I could see why I felt like an anxious, nervous wreck. The daily activities of my life had been filling up my anxiety bucket, and I had been doing nothing to drain it. That’s how I view managing my anxiety these days - like a bucket. If I go for a few days eating like shit and neglecting to exercise, I literally feel my bucket overflowing with anxiety. When I spend a few days practicing healthy behaviors, I return to a balanced state. My bucket becomes half full, so-to-speak. Right where it belongs. 2. Stop fighting the feeling. When you get angry or sad, what do you do? Do you try to fight the feeling with all your might, or do you recognize them for what they are - feelings - and allow them to slowly fade? The problem with anxiety is that it’s a feeling no one enjoys experiencing. The nervousness. The on-edge-ness. The worry. The fear. The impending doom. I don’t blame you for not wanting to feel like that. But that doesn’t mean you should fight it. It took me a painfully long time to learn this. Anxiety, isolated from other issues, isn’t anything to worry about. It’s actually a good thing we have it. It spikes our adrenaline when we need it most - running from bears, hunting for food, and other things of the sorts. In today’s world, we don’t have much of a need for those feelings. Outside of fighting and war, the majority of people could do without them. So when we experience them, we struggle. We fight back. We resist. It’s the resistance of anxiety that makes it stronger. It allows your anxiety to grow. It adds to your bucket. But if you let go, you allow yourself to be free. Feel the feeling of anxiety. Recognize it’s just a feeling. And move on. “Oh, I’m feeling anxious. I don’t like it, but it’s not going to hurt me.” This is what I practiced doing for several months, even after making all the lifestyle changes I talked about earlier. Eventually, I got to a point where a month had gone by and I hadn’t felt overly anxious. No more panic attacks. No more night terrors. No more feeling like crap. I remember saying to myself, “Hm, that’s weird. I can’t believe I haven’t felt like that in a while.” Then I continued on with my life. I rose from the pit of doom and conquered my fears. Today, I happily and healthily “manage” my anxiety, but I sure as hell haven’t “cured” it. Conquering anxiety is simpler than it seems. Yes, I really just said that, how do I know? Becuase it is a waiting game that works in direct correlation with results. The more action you take, the better results you get. What do you feel on anxiety?
