I hate a person so much. What can I do to help my mental health?
I know this is an absolutely terrible thing to feel, but I hate a certain person so much that it has gone out of control. Whenever his name is mentioned, I just feel rage building up inside of me. If someone says something positive about him, I will literally have to leave the room to prevent myself from having a meltdown. The reasons why go back several years, he has done some pretty bad things to me, and he happens to actually be a friend of my boyfriend's, so this makes it especially difficult and a big strain on our relationship. Note My boyfriend is nothing like this guy, and he claims he hangs out with him because it reminds him " not to act that way" . I don't know if I believe it, but either way, my boyfriend's a nice guy. This idiot in question is a very egocentric, shallow, insecure and racist person, who constantly needs attention or he'll have a tantrum, much like a bawling toddler. It has literally gotten to the point that if I heard I heard news of his death, I would feel ecstatic, perhaps even throw a miniature party in my home. This sounds absolutely psychotic, and it is, so I'm on here seeking help. I can't let go of the past, especially when my boyfriend thinks highly of him. He is a subject my boyfriend and I just do not touch, he does not mention him to me and I do not bring it up, for if we did it would turn into a huge argument. I realize I need anger management to save both my relationship with my boyfriend and my overall health, but I can't afford professional help. How do I cope and become a better person out of this?
I'm a bit worried for my mom's mental health?
She's 41. I'm 14. By mental health, I do not mean I have seem her running around with a frying pan screaming that she has to slay the mouse king. It's her memory.And yes, a slip up once or twice on a occasion is normal, but she really doesn't seem to remember things. Either that or the times I spend with her are so unremarkable that she forgets them completely. A few days ago, she put the wrong date of my birth on a paper she had to sign for the record, I'm an A and sometimes B student. She just had to sign this permission slip for a field trip for the kids who got high scores on these tests that the state had to take . She wasn't even close. Off my two years and three months. Then, on the way home one time she spun off into a completely wrong turn even though we've been living here for four years . She has set stuff on the counter and completely forgotten it was there. Multiple times.And just today I was playing piano and my mom came into my room and wanted to show me this " layering" feature on it. But she had already shown me this a week or two ago. And she says she just learned about it this morning. I completely understand if you forgot that you taught someone something, but how can you completely forget something you learned less than a month ago. It just scares me sometimes...I don't want to bring it up because I don't want her to get mad at me. Any advice?
What sort of vocations are out there in assisting young people today, who struggle with mental health issues?
For years I've battled with major depression and anxiety, and it has near ruined my life. I was hoping to go on to university to study English Literature, but after recently seeing the site for " It Gets Better" , and all the wonderful videos on it, I've felt completely inspired to do something. I feel like I want to get involved with something that specifies in helping young adults and teenagers through their problems, big and small. I've done a little research myself, but I don't want to do mental health nursing, as I feel I would be too limited in this. I want to be involved in something bigger, that aims to get this problem right in the jugular, because too often we feel like there is no hope. In this current society we are moving in a great direction, where there are no prejudices against sexual orientation, colour, class but it's still happening and people are still struggling in dealing with it. What sort of career could I begin in this area, and what qualifications would I need? Thanks in advance, best answer gets ten points x

Is it safe for my mental health to continue smoking weed while/after being depersonalized/derealized?
I have had depersonalization derealization since around late february of 2 years ago. I got it from a bad cannabis experience Please, blame my brain, not the damn drug , although at the time I had been smoking cannabis regularly without any problems whatsoever. During this experience, I had an out of body experience, which caused me to feel the way I have felt for the past two years, although I have learned how to tame it quite well on my own. I have smoked weed more than 30 times since I have come down with this problem, and it never seems to better or worsen it, and to be honest, it is oddly calming, which you wouldn't expect considering that I developed the psychological problem from it. At this point in my life, it seems my days of depersonalization derealization are coming to and end, as I teach myself to control it. I have found many guides on completely curing the issue, and I plan on using them, but it brought on this question Would it be okay for me to smoke weed after I come to a normal state of reality? Or could I possibly go through a relapse? If I understand reality at the time, won't I understand reality for good after properly learning? I have spent hours researching things like this, not of paranoia, but just in concerns of my own health.

How do you become a mental health professional?
i'd like to further my growth at my current company and maximize on all of my years of experience in direct care of clients with mental health issues.I have a bachelors in sociology but i've been in the mental health field for about ten years. I read somewhere that your experience can make up for education because i do not have a masters yet. I've got 6 years experience as a life coach in a boys home, 2 years experience as a case manager for Developmentally Delayed Substance Abuse Mental Health clients, 2 years experience as an in home skills trainer in self esteem grief substance abuse anger management. I'm not looking to gain a Mental Health Professional position but rather looking for a general state board that does this kind of certification.

Can you get bipolar meds from a regular doc or do i have to go to a mental health doc?
I am so depressed! [mental health]?
I've been depressed. It's hard to remember the last time being happy. Things are improving in my life, but I still don't have the motivation to get up in the morning. Even if I have an appointment, I wait till the very last second so I'll barely have time to make it without eating breakfast and waiting to shower later. Even if I tell myself I need to get up early the next morning, I can't. It's like it's physically draining just to get out of bed. Anyone have any tips to make this easier? Please don't say go on medication. I've known a couple people that've done that with awful outcomes. But I do look forward to hearing any tips or advice y'all might have

What are your views/opinions on mental health illnesses?
The Mental Health Parity act says that insurance companies can't discriminate against mental health, so...?
My girlfriend works for Blockbuster, which is owned by Dish Network, which obviously has more than 50 employees which is required in the act . She called them and they said they don't offer mental health insurance of any kind, at all. I doubt they're breaking the law, so could somebody who is familiar with this act explain it to me? I thought they couldn't discriminate physical vs mental. I read the actual law for Illinois, and it seems decently clear to me, so I'm confused.I honestly don't know how it works with which state's law should be followed, but I just said I lived in Illinois just in case. Anybody who knows otherwise could easily look up where Dish Network is located.
