Q: Chronic depression and paranoa
asked by: Macias on August 8th, 2008

I really sometimes feel very weird, I act like illogically and I loose hope in everything, and I doubt about everything. But the normal me is very successful, perfectionist and active.
Sometimes i take valium to decrease the depression in the biginning, it helps a little bit but it affects the other days after.
This case started with me when i was with my ex-bf who was bipolar.
now i'm in love with an artist, which means he's sometimes busy and in his own world and doesn't want anybody to disturb him. I am an artist painter as well and i have these mood swings, but now it's really hard.

Do you have any advice for me? An exercise or something?

you should consider seeing your doctor and taking anti depressents instead of valiums for your depression.

Please help me.
From time to time, I have this paranoia...
I start to doubt about everything, about my bf (if he's tired and doesn't wanna have sex) I become crazy and start to think that he's seeing somebody, while all the evidences are in his side, or even if i was with him all day long... (that means I don't have any reason at all to doubt).
I start to think that my colleague at work is trying to hide something...
As I told you I doubt about everything... I also doubt about myself like saying (oh I'm crazy, I'm abnormal... or no everybody is cheating on me.... or no it is my own fault).

Please help me, I really can see my problem clearly but I'm not able to cure myself from it... as just after finishing writing this message, I will start again to think of my bf and try to remember every single word he said to me in the 3 last days and I will try to connect all the words together to form a net of mistrust or whatever. As for my best friend also and my colleagues...
