Anthony,
First of all, please don't be afraid of the "mental illness" tag in
seeking help because everyone hits a low point at some time in their
life. It's the healthiest ones who seek help for it.
Secondly, make sure that you go to a therapist you choose, not your
parents. That can make all the difference in the world.
Thirdly, please realise that it's normal to argue with people as long
as you're willing to cool down afterwards and reconcile your
differences. That is the stuff of families and relationships.

Mike,
I know this may sound funny coming from a guy who sometimes appears
to have
everything moving in a positive direction with working, living
independently
and enjoying weight lifting, but I sometimes too feel forced into a
lifestyle which my parents say is bull, and their tired having me
complain
about feeling forced into something. My suggestion for you is to
move on,
it's your life, why not enjoy it, start seeing this gal before time runs
out.
Back to myself, I had another blow out with my parents, brother, his
fiancé,
and her parents happened to be there to witness it, and were shock
since I'm
supposed to be a intelligent individual very respected in
augmentative and
alternative communication (a field I love). After blowing up, I
requested
to be driven home where my comfort zone is, so my father brought me
home and
left me to cool down. This morning we talked by telephone, and
everybody
thinks I should get help with my emotions, and probably some
medicine. My
mom says this is 15 years late because I can be good for months and than
just snap. I'm going to get help because I'm tired of the after
feeling,
today I feel physically tired, and I have things to prepare for. I'm
just
scared of the therapist saying I can't work (something I definitely
enjoy,
and am one of the better technicians at PRC for working out whatever).
Another concern is the mental illness label, I don't want that
effecting the
way I'm seen by the company and our customers, I want to figure out
their
future communication devices, something I'm good at.
Bobby always said this list was caring, and I definitely need
guidance now.
Thanks,
Anthony

Who is preventing you from seeing this woman? I assume you are both

I have been prevented from seeing a woman I've known for years on the

relationship, but it just hasn't happened yet.
Walk away before I finish what you started. Face to face I will put

in
your place. End this game before I finish what you started. Face to =
face
everything will change.
