Hello everyone,
I'm an occasional post-er on the dental forums, and I have a huge questions regarding mental illness....
First of all, I moved to Florida roughly 2 years ago, after living 18 years of my life in Maryland, a small country town where I was popular and had many friends. I did not take the move well, and still am not coping with it, as I have lost contact with many people back home and find myself lonlier than ever. As of late I have been having breakdowns, I'm not sure if finals that are approaching have been triggering this, or that I just am going "off the deep end". I find myself crying at the slightest things, though this never existed until I left Maryland, it was only in Florida that my troubles grew. Is this bipolar? From what I read on the internet, alot of my symptoms sound like this; then again, everything I read I think I have - sort of a hypchondriac. Then again, am I just in need of some adjustment therapy and counseling? I really would like to solve the depression in my life, its causing alot of anxiety and pain to not only me, but also my family members...HELP!
