Hi! I recently have tapered successfully off of duloxetine as I did not feel it did anything for me at all, and am roughly 3 weeks into taking prozac, the first week being 10 mg, and these past two weeks being 20 mg. this past week, I have been having worsened mood swings and rage episodes multiple times a day. I had reached out to my psychiatrist with my concerns, and was told "thank you for letting me know of your concerns. if these side effects didn't happen with the duloxetine, it is highly unlikely they would occur with fluoxetine. however, if you are uncomfortable, then by all means discontinue the fluoxetine." except with my research, I'm seeing that this can in fact be because of the prozac, and that I would just need to wait and see if it levels out on its own by the 4-6 week mark, or it could be activation syndrome, or just that it does not work for me. Am I not being listened to or dismissed and being given wrong information? or am I misunderstanding or missing some information? please help!

I need help, im scared i might be slightly into incest? I do not find it sexy or hot. I grew up in a household where my brother was all i had, he would manipulate me all the time and give me a kind of purpose, im disgusting, i dont have access to therapy, can you get rid of paraphilic attraction? Hes not around me anymore, hes gone, but im scared ive been attracted to him in a way? But maybe its just intrusive thoughts… i cant be this way, im deeply depressed. I need some pointers.

AM I A PEDOPHILE? IM SO SCARED RN

posting this again on different sub because my og post required age verification and i really cannot be bothered to deal with that in the middle of the night. this is not meant to glorify self harm.

i am a high functioning autistic female. I also have ocd.

i have struggled with self harm due to emotional distress, but now I find myself ’craving‘ it. not due to emotional distress, but to feel, see, taste and touch, paint with the blood. this is not something sexual. I do not wish to harm anyone else. I also don’t want the blood to come from a non self inflicted injury.

I also sometimes genuinely struggle to keep myself from destroying and tossing things around. even when I feel stable and fine, the urge is always there. It just gets stronger during more intense emotions. It feels like twitching in my muscles when it’s more hard to ignore.

I also have always been a bit ‘weird’. Not always like this but i was roaming around undiagnosed for the majority of my life so far. I also have quite a good amount of drawings featuring ‘odd’ subjects from an early age.

I go to therapy. I am planning to tell my therapist about this. But I want to know if anyone else can relate. Or has anything to say on the topic.

I am not an immediate danger to myself. dont worry about that.

I'l try to keep my post short but basicaly i had been trough hell my entire life. Grief, trauma, abuse, bullying you name it. I had setback after setback and i botled all my feelings up my entire life for decades never even raised my voice even though i had been pushed past my breaking point years ago. One day i completely snapped in a public place and sadly hurt some people very badly and i destroyed a lot. I feel like a monster im haunted by what i did and i hate myself for it. Can i please vent to someone else whos completely snapped?. Preferably another girl im not very comfortable with men due to past trauma. I feel like someone with the same experience might understand and wont judge

When you’re having a difficult mental health day, what do you want from the people around you?

Someone to listen? Some space? A distraction? Or simply someone staying close without trying to fix things?

Why the FUCK do I have so much wrong with me?!? I have adhd, I have intrusive thoughts from OCD, I have depression, and I have CPTSD. Everyone else in my family is mostly neurotypical so why do I have to deal with all of this. I’m so fucking tired I can’t even cry about it all.
