What’s wrong with me?!?

Q: Ok, to start with this is what’s happened to me so far this year: My girlfriend that I had known for 8 years dumped me, I was in a hit and run and didn’t get the guy responsible, I had to buy a new car, I’m graduating in December with a bachelors in English, I don’t know what to do after college, and i need to get a job to pay for all this stuff going on in my life. I’m 22 and am really lost in life. Aside from all this, i think i’m losing my mind! I hate waking up in the morning and it takes me forever to get to sleep. I have had anxiety for about two weeks and i could tell because my stomach really hurt and when i would go to the restroom i had blood in my stool. I hate being awake and i feel as though life has lost all meaning. For no reason i get really sad and begin to cry. I’ve had a couple of instances where i would just sit and stair inside my car and just be there for half an hour. It’s not like just to relax because nothing would come to mind. I was just sitting there and feeling like crap. I am also so pissed at everyone around me. I don’t know why. My family tries helping me but all I can do is just feel annoyed at everything they say and do. I don’t drink or smoke but i do go to bars to play pool. When I’m there or any place where there are people I get so pissed that I just want to start a fight with everyone, even my friends. i thought about focusing on getting a job and I thought about teaching with my English degree, but when I think about it, it just makes me feel sick. To be around so many people and kids all the time! That’s what i don’t get because I used to sub and I had a great time doing that. why would the thought of teaching make me feel so bad now? I just hate being alive! There’s nothing that I find entertaining anymore! I went to the school counselor or therapist, and he only recommended me to distract myself. From what i told him, he wanted to commit me! He said that I seemed a danger to myself and others. I don’t want to hurt anybody. I’m also afraid of dying. sometimes I just lay in bed thinking about what i would miss out on if i was dead. I don’t want to disappoint anyone in my family. I know other people have it worse off than me, but why do i feel so miserable? I wish i knew what to do. I feel like a burden on my parents and i don’t want to disappoint them. I’m the first to graduate from college among all my family and i don’t want that to go to waist. I want to help out my family! But I know i have to help myself first. The thing that I also hate is that I think I’m just lazy. There are entire weeks when I’m just so tired of life and so sleepy for no reason. Even after sleeping for like ten hours i still feel tired. I feel so scared about accepting life! I don’t want to lose the people that I have come to know in college or from high school. But it’s so hard for me to stay in contact with them. I just don’t find the energy or drive to stay in contact with them. I wish I could just leave all this behind or just sleep for a really long time. Can’t i start over? Basically, I hate being around people even family and friends, I’m really scared about life, I have no goal or purpose in life because i don’t see the point of living, and I usually feel tired and sad. there are some days when I am so full of energy and I talk way too much about nothing important. Just that i have to talk! Then I get some kind of down and for a few weeks I feel so annoyed by everything and everyone. What’s wrong with me?! Can somebody please tell me what I should do? I know there are a lot of people that also feel this way. But why?! Somebody please just help me out!

A: There is really not one direct anwser that I can give you for the way you are feeling. But I can definitely relate with you on this subject, and you’d be surprised how many people wake up thinking and feeling the same exact way. You feel as though sleeping is the greatest thing this life has to offer. Just escaping reality for a couple hours and then dreading waking up in the morning. If we are looking at the subject clinically, you suffer from depression, maybe bi-polar disorder,and anxiety.Many factors play a role including genetics, environment, life events, medical conditions, and the way people react to things that happen in their lives.Doctors can give you medication to help fix the chemical imbalance in your brain, so you if you feel its necessary, go ask a doctor about getting anti-depressants. Although I’ve been always afraid of taking pills because I felt like they change you as a person. But I can’t say anything because I never tried them. Although depression is affecting your mind so much that you might need it.Although medication won’t fix everything. You need to find motivation in your life again.You are at a hard time in your life. You just graduated from college and you’re thinking to yourself..”now what?”Listen, try taking small steps.First, read some good books that might help you change your perspective on things. Read “Tuesdays with Morrie” if you haven’t read it before. It will really get you thinking, and will make you think about why life is worth living. Second, ask yourself what is missing from your life. Maybe you need to get away for a while. I don’t know if this is realistic thinking in your current financial situation, but try traveling for a while, maybe go on a road trip. You were talking about being afraid of losing your friends, what better way to do it then to bond with them on a trip away from everything negative?Try picking up something new. Maybe find new girlfriendI can only guess what you are missing in life.I can tell you that poor diet leads to restlessness. Seriously, eat your fruits and vegetables and drink 8 glasses of water a day. I think you’ll be amazed how much it helps your body.Also, exercise. It has been scientifically proven to decrease depression.you cannot keep living this waylife is so short, you cannot dread being alive.

Could there be something wrong with my prostate? 22 yrs old?

Q: Symptoms:- Seem to have to urinate a little more than usual, and when I go, the stream doesn’t seem to be as powerful as it should be. Also, if I hear another male urinate in a public restroom, he will urinate 2x to 3x for a longer time than I do! Whether or not I drink before going to bed, I always have to urinate when I wake up and my stomach often hurts because of it when I wake up. I usually don’t lay on my stomach because that makes it feel more annoying. After I pee, it feels slightly like my bladder wasn’t fully emptied and a some drops will dribble out after I pee if any pressure is put on that area, like if I pee, then go and sit down in a car seat. Seems to have been getting worse since since ~14 (was non-existant then I think and slowly developed the problem)- I can get an erection but it seems like it’s somewhat harder to get one now, and it seems like it was a tad firmer, bigger and even a little longer, about 3-4 years ago.- When I ejaculate there isn’t a lot of force anymore, it just kinda slowly comes out. I remember there used to be force, just like I remember there used to be more force when urinating. Also seems to have gotten worse over the years, since ~14.At 22 isn’t it weird to already notice these declines? I know it’s gross, but I looked online about self prostate exam and I did one, and I can reach my prostate – which already seems to be a warning sign. The guide said if it feels like “the flesh by your thumb when you make a tight fist,” then it’s fine, but if it feels like “a knuckle” then you have a problem. Well it doesn’t feel as HARD as a knuckle BONE but, unless it is my imagination, it feels somewhat bigger than a walnut, feels somewhat harder than that flesh near the thumb when making a fist, and has a slight oval shape, as if protruding out into the rectum territory more than it should. (In cut-away images of the prostate, it doesn’t protrude into the rectum’s area very much at all, but an image of an enlarged one DOES.) All could be my imagination since I can’t actually see it and can only feel it, but… I’ve always felt that something isn’t right.I am sitting down all the time at my job and at home and what’s worse, I have a bad habit of putting my legs up on the chair when I’m sitting if the chair can’t scoot in very far due to arm rests hitting the desk. So basically my left knee facing up, bent, with my foot on the edge of the chair, and my right leg either down on the floor like normal, or also up on the chair, bent in a V, but instead of facing up like the left one, it’s laying flat, kinda like a weird version of sitting “Indian style” or whatever, or both legs bent up like a V and both on the chair. I know, I’m weird, horrible habit. I don’t have too much meat or “cushion” on me (I’m skinny – no butt) so my theory was there was like no padding and squished the prostate and it got irritated over the years? I’m 6′ and weigh about 135.Could any of that have anything to do with it, as in, putting abnormal pressure on the prostate area and causing it to swell up? Or does it sound like prostate cancer, or what?Thank you for any suggestions/info/or advice.Thanks Spicey and Care For. :)A2, yes, no sense in lying, I do about once a day.

A: The best advice that can be given is to seek early medical attention.First, it helps to confirm whether your fear is unfounded or not.Second, any disease is easy to treat and cure if it is detected at an early stage.Doctors can only confirm after doing some real tests.Hope your fear is unfounded.All the best and Good luck!
