Should I go to a mental health or rehabilitation center?
I am bulimic and emo. I'v been bulimic for a few months now and no matter what I do I can't stop on my own. Emo is on and off. My family is making it really hard with my parents being divorced and my mom acting like she is just fine with being pregnant not even a year after the divorce. I know i need help but should I see a counsuler or go ahed and get pro. help?
I'm a 13 year old girl in 8th grade incase anyone was curious.
Clarification on emo: cutting with anything i can find.
And mabey I shouldve mention iv tried to end my life a few times...

What are some of the most common risk factors for diabetes?
Is age a factor? How about just one of your parents having it? Do they both have to have it in order for you to get it too?
And what are some of the most common signs you may have diabetes? Like what should you be on the look out for?
I'm just kind of confused over the whole the so I'd like for someone to maybe shine some light on it.
can a teenager check themselves into a residential treatment center for mental health?
i'm fifteen, ill turn sixteen on new years. i would like to check myself into a residential treatment center called "foundations for living" in ohio. the problem is, i do not know how my parents will react to my idea. i know i need help. i have a history of self injury (still struggling to stop), i have borderline personality disorder, anxiety, severe depression, and post traumatic stress disorder. i am currently seeing a therapist, a psychologist, going to EMDR therapy, and DBT therapy, but i feel that these therapies are not helping me. i feel that a residential treatment center will hepl me, but it will be very difficult to convince my parents to check me in. i was wondering if i could fill out all of the paperwork and send it to the treatment center without my parents knowledge and wait for a phonecall saying that they have accepted me.
it would be a big help if anyone with knowledge of this subject would pelase respond.

i am a cutter... my parents dont know.
all i ever thing about is takin my life.

and for those of you who have been to one. how are they? so i know some what of what im going into!
im kinda scared of these places cause a really close family friend was a cutter for about 5 years.
she was in and out of hospitals... and she told me how they were and it just totally freaked me out!
i mean shock therepy!
and im going to my "crazy doctor" as i call her... tomorrow! so ya she doesnt know about my cutting tho!
i have never felt "OK"!
to tell you the truth i can never remember a time when i was ever happy! and thats sad cause i have an amazing family and i am really lucky to have the life that i do have!
but this really got messed up when i was 10 and im now 16. my brother went to prison and taht really messed me up! hard thing to deal with as a 10 year old!
i have some questions about a mental health center inpatient program (psychiatric hospital)?
I am 17 and i have depression and anxiety. I am on medication and i see a conselor. My anxiety has gotten really bad to the point where i have trouble leaving the house. My parents think im pretending and aren't supportive in any way. I think if i were to enter in an inpatiant program, i could focus on myself and geting better. Plus i would learn how to cope with it in my daily life.
So have you ever been to one?
What was it like?
How long did you stay for?
and are there any requirments to be admitted into the hospital?
should i be put in a mental health center or an insanisilum for teenagers?
im a sophomore in high school and i have terrible depression,most of which might be passed on through my family.sometimes i feel like i have to many issues with myself to name and ive attempted suicide a 3 or 4 times,depending on what counts as an attempt.im a middle class white kid with still married parents.
i think im this way for a number of things,so heres a list.
. i hate my physical appearance
. i think im crazy
. im very shy and always have been
. i feel like im selfish and a narcissist because i hate myself so much
. people tell me they care,but i feel like my parents dont
. i came out as bisexual a couple years ago and my mom freaked and she makes fun of me for it.she thinks its just a phase and im trying to get attention,like im just a little kid
. i cut myself and ive inducted vomit ting to loose weight or eating to much
anyway i have alot of problems to put it simply.
so i want to know if there are any places that can help me because i feel no where near sane
i tell myself to stop this but i cant make it stop,i cant stop being sad
any places where i can get dirrect mental help around the bay area
please and thank you
Can college health services give out prescriptions?
I would like to get a prescription for anti-depressants without my parents knowing. I am 19, so the doctor is not obligated to tell them, but I am under their medical insurance, which reports all the prescriptions of all the family members each month. However, I know my college health center operates independently of the health insurance company, so the prescription would never show up. I'm just not certain whether or not they can write prescriptions. Can they?
Does it cost money to be administered to a mental treatment center in a hospital?
It's for my friend, yada yada yada.
It's a mental health center, part of a hospital,
and If he gets checked in he doesn't want to burden his parents with the cost.
Thanks.
NEBRASKA Dental (Health Center)?
I need some MAJOR dental work done and I've thought about getting on Medicaid to help me pay for it as it will be way too expensive and I can't afford most of the work I need done right now. I've looked into going to a dentistry school/clinic as I've heard it is much cheaper than private dentists (btw does anyone have a rough estimate of how much it would cost to go to a dentistry school/clinic, i need a few root canals/crowns done..)
But the one last thing people tell me about is Health Centers. What are they? I've heard sometimes they will provide free dental care to even people that need major services, i.e. root canals, crowns, etc. Or they are even cheaper than a private dentist and/or dentistry clinic/school.
I've heard of 2 Health Centers in Nebraska. CHARLES DREW HEALTH CENTER and ONE WORLD COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTER...
Is there anyone out there who knows about these Health Centers?
I would greatly appreciate any feedback on this!
Thank you.
I heard you get care from them regardless if you have health insurance, and they charge you based on your income and what you make, being as I have no income, I have no job, I temporarily live with parents for the moment, how will this work out? I can probably do a "down payment" kind of thing for them like ,000.
