Is It Normal?
What do you think?
Am I losing it?
Recently, I have started to have crying spells. Although I fight them off, I am extremely sad. I don't know why most of the time, and when I do know why, its for some trivilant matter that has no real bearring on life.

For example, Im bowling with some friends, and chick I like gets a 95, I get a 108, Im content. Second game, I get 123, she gets a 177. I get depressed. >.> See what I mean? Should I tell my doctor (I am currently taking two different medicines, for two different reasons, that both can cause depression and suicidal thoughts.)?

Another example is, Me and my friends this morning where playing a card game, and my friend starts putting me down because I did a stupid choice. I almost start crying, and its obvious in my voice that i was about to, and said "Screw you, Im not gonna play if you keep doing this, So what If I made a mistake, f**k off" And he is like "Dont quit" Then after about 30 seconds of thinking and settling down, I say "Whatever, Ill keep playing, whatever"

Is it normal to be set off so easily?

And should I tell my doctor that the medicine im taking could be affecting me with depression?

ur problem u take everything to seriously, when some one puts u down, just go who cares there just words.
Yes you should talk to your doctor, since it has reached the point where you can see it is affecting your daily life. It is probably not your fault at all.
You have a big problem there with people are smarter than you or do better than you. You have to think that you are smart and you can do better. When you loose you try to find the way to solve it, not to get mad at them. When I do something wrong, I learn from it and I try to do better next time. Don't get too emotional about it. It's just a game.
thats what Im saying, and yes I posted this story, the "happy go lucky me" is not so happy any more. I know im kinda self centered. And I know that I am vain. I wish I wasn't I tried to make it so I wasn't but I am all the less. It comes in phases, sometimes Im not sad, but happy that they are good and im their friend, but other times I get sad. >_<

Sisophous, respond and enlighten me!!!!

>_<

As you can see, Im not as depressed right now as I was about two hours ago >.> This website helps, but still, I could use some advice
You should tell your doctor, if your meds are causing depression, it's an issue and you should probably be put on different meds.
listen to them ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Without knowing what your meds are it's difficult to give sound advice.

Any medication which causes depression is very dangerous because they actually alter brain chemistry. The depression can get to a point that you no longer realise that it's the meds causing it.

If you are on anti-depressants you should discuss lowering your dosage with your doctor. Most of the current anti-depressant meds actually cause suicidal thoughts.
dragoon,

The advice others gave I agree with. Explain to your doctor specifically what you posted in the story. It sounds like the medication you are taking is not right for you.

I've been on the receiving end of outbursts from some young women that was completely unprovoked and later found out they were taking medication or in some instances should have been taking medication, so it isn't that unusual.

If your doctor can't help you, or you don't see positive change after approaching him/her then seek another doctor. Not all doctors are successful in diagnosing the cause of a problem or skilled in it.

It's not normal to be set off so easily, but I don't think it is a behavioral problem per say, or cognitive rather sounds like a chemistry problem with meds or taking the necessary ones.

Acknowledging your reactions is inappropriate is a first step to addressing it and resolving it. Good luck dragoon!!!!!
take three Zolofts and one Levitra and call me in the morning.
Maybe your just sensitive.
Relax, you are clearly just a homosexual who is struggling with his sexuality. Just accept it, dude.
Relax, you are clearly just an idiot struggling with trying to make others think your witty over the enternet because you don't have a shit of a life. Just accept it, dude.

Back on topic....I wouldn't know if your jealous, self centered, etc. or not...But eitherway, thats not whats causing this problem.

First of all, the medication your on (for whatever it is) is probably some type of steroid. Steroids cause the release of male/female hormones into the body, and often times, both. When this happens, you become much more irritable, mean, and have higher levels of testosterone in your body, which makes men AND women very prone to being hostile.

Why do you think young boys are always picking on each other and fighting each other? The answer, testosterone, it causes them to act like animals, because they are.

If you are not satisfied with your quality of life at the moment, go to your doctor and explain your symptoms, find out whats wrong. Then, get a second opinion to verify it. I would suggest either dumping the pill case, or finding something with as few side-affects as possible.

Thats all you need to know/do. Case closed.
Sisophous,
