Ive seen this guy come unglued in/on a few posts from the previous board.

Not good.

At least your trying!

My kid sees, hears, and absorbs everything. Definitely a great reason to try. :)

Mith here's the deal. The internet is good for reference material. It's not a doctor and it's not a pyschiatrist or psychologist. Don't rely on stupid on-line tests to judge medical conditions, and I strongly suggest you don't rely on people you don't know on a public forum like this with complete annonymity to air your inner-most feelings. You're bound to get just as much grief as you might get help as well as a healthy dose of apathy from the majority of the readers.
That test you took simply tells you that you should seek professional help, which I agree with. The site can't differentiate things like bi-polar disorder from clinical or manic depression, schitsophrenia, or ADD/disassociative disorder/MPD. A real doctor can, as well as being able to prescribe treatments to correct these dysfunctions.

Go get help instead of getting upset by the remarks of people you don't really even know on some faceless internet site. That's my advice in a nutshell. End of story.

Invite the naysayers over for a taste of it.

Seriously, like Kiki said, see a Doc. You will test positive for 75% of the "net tests" you take.

Just make sure you aren't looking for reasons to be depressed. Don't feel sorry for yourself because you feel you've had a hard life, just remember someone will always have it harder than you, and people have gotten through a lot more than you without hurting themselves (I am saying "you" as generic, not specifically you). Its frustrating to me, the whole suicide thing, my brother got a girl pregnant when he was 17, he has depression, got it from my mom. We are a catholic family, so this was a huge deal and our family (except for the immediate) pretty much turned on us at first. He told me he never even thought of hurting himself. Then a more distant family member, age 18, attempts suicide because his girlfriend "might" be pregnant.

Just trying to give you an example and some perspective...you can be strong...to me there is depression, and there is being depressed. Depression is a disorder/disease/sickness whatever you would call it, being depressed is a time of your life when you feel symptoms of what that site listed. Whichever one you are, there is help for both, so dont give up.
