Psychiatrists can prescribe drugs.  So I guess it's a matter of whether or not you need drugs.  See a psychologist first and see what they say.

Provided you are not being checked into a facility against your will, nor showing up stating clearly & repeatedly that you are going to hurt someone (including yourself) any reputable mental health professional will want to start you in therapy.  A psychiatrist may want to put you on medication, but medication is only really neccessary if you feel that your life is out of control.  Apart from medication, ongoing therapy is the sort of help they should offer.  Good luck.

Your moniker, Paranoid, says it all. Yes to mind your own business. And no to should you do something about it. Get some help for yourself (and I don't mean muscle).

Yeah, I agree with what someone else said in a previous comment....If you're able to question rather or not you're crazy, chances are - You're Not!...Unfortunately, I had grown up around people that were mentally ill. (my Grandmother, & a cousin) who has been in & out of mental wards all their life...They didn't know they were ill, nor did they know what they were doing, saying, etc...

I know lots of Doctors (IM a nurse), they have doctors to care for them...they arent allowed to prescribe meds for themselves, anyway, so would need another doctor.

YES!!!! If it is going to someone who its not prescribed to then you and them both can get into serious trouble...i sent my dad some muscle relaxers and the postal service opened it up and he didn't get them for a month and there was a note on it saying what had happened to the envelope because there was also a letter and a check in there that wasn't illegal so they had to send that but not the meds.

e yea & if you act normal or happy ,you`re a con-they can`t understand it`s an act,& you`ll pay mentally later. also they have no idea of how much medicine you have to take to act normal.noone in my family,friends( my husband does) believe i`m mentall ill,because i worked for27 yrs, then had anervous breakdown,maybe because i wasn`t hospitized-lots of out-patient

I have bipolar affective disorder. I actually hate it if i feel I'm getting special treatment from family and coworkers. But i guess there are some who would try and use it to there advantage.

Of Course. More often than I like to think about.  Most people have.  Maybe you should see someone professional and talk about it.  Have you checked it out with close friends?  You might have depression, anxiety or either situational or long term anxiety.  Is it all the time?  Do your thoughts race through your mind?  Call your community mental health service each county has one.  Anxiety these days has increased since 911. One doctor I work with stated that he was giving out more anxiety drugs, since 911.  Look up anxiety depression and or mental illness.  There are national groups the National Alliance for the mentally ill.  National Institute of Health NIH also has web sites you may want to look at.  Be cautious of psych professionals. you want to make sure they are someone you trust. Ask your physician -OBgyn doctors usually have good referrals.   Don't wait Take the responsibility to care for yourself.  Its a good indication of a mature adult.  God Bless and get moving.

I haven't been diagnosed with anything but I myself suffer from bi-polar disorder and depression.  I think that medication to doctor who you are, is stupid.  I manage to be myself, to live my life, to hold a job and an apartment and I do it all alone.  I'm not into taking medication and altering who I am.  I was dealt this hand in life and I'm just trying to stay in the game.  It sucks but hey, I smoke lots of weed.  That helps.

Yes, duh.  Not everyone wants to live in a chemically-induced stupor their entire life.  Perscription drugs are the WORST way to fix a problem.  Not everyone agrees with me, but we all need options.  I opt to be treated naturally and wholistically, others may choose to take the short-cuts "traditional" doctors perscribe.
