Atheists: How many of you had suffer from Depression, anxiety attacks, OCD, Bipolar disorder, PTSD etc?

Manic Depression and Bipolar are the same thing...... Manic Depression is just the old name for it. From what you describe it sounds more like depression..... if you have not see a doctor then do not believe all the things people tell you...... if you have seen a doctor then continue to see him and get into therapy...........

I take it you have been diagnosed by a doctor. Are you meds? Ask your doctor if you can have counselling.

You need to talk to people. Try an online support group like http://mhsanctuary.freeforums.org/ It's often easier to talk on line. People at this site will understand and be able to give you support.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
