I have panic attacks and it involves anything I don't have control over and I don't know what to do.I've had it as long as I can remember and I'm 51,every thing I'm about to tell you sounds crazy and I know it,but I don't have any control over it. I couldn't have but 1 child and I was so happy carrying her and I would get to thinking about there's a baby inside of me and I can't get it out now! and it was a long 9 months,I was so afraid to tell my doctor I thought he would think I was crazy.Here some more things,nose being stopped up,smothering from all of this fat I have gained and I already have sleep apnea from all of this fat on my neck,hiking trails I smother,going to the dentist deadens my mouth and I can't get the feeling back then, I could not wear a cast because I couldn't get it off,no false nails,I'm scared of going into bathrooms and closing the door,I'm afraid I'll get locked in, you know the door knob want work and it's happened more than once, the rides at the fair because they lock the bar on me,rings stuck on my finger I've got my husband to cut them off ,claustraphobia, I'm 5'7 and I have lost from 247 to 196 and I make my mind not think of the lap band being in me and I know I can't get it out. I do take Zanax 0.5 2x a day and I keep it with me, when I do think about it,as you can see it has controlled my life and I can't stop it. When it happen I want to just start running and screem somebody please help me,it's like somebody's nailing me in a box and I can't get out and I am so tired of this fear,it just scares me to death,when it happens I would rather be dead then to feel this fear. It's ok if you can't have this show,because I wouldn't have the money to get there anyway. I just wish you could email me on how to get out of this box. I'm already on disability for other physical things and this don't help any.Thank you so much.

It affects everyone from pre-teen to adults, and it can be fatal. Also have lasting consequences if developed, especially in the young. Bones more likely to break later in life, with bulimia teeth can rot (major dental issues), organ failure, unbalanced electrolytes which can cause a lot of ...

It affects everyone from pre-teen to adults, and it can be fatal. Also have lasting consequences if developed, especially in the young. Bones more likely to break later in life, with bulimia teeth can rot (major dental issues), organ failure, unbalanced electrolytes which can cause a lot of problems, including death (hypokalemia). How do you get one passed an eating disorder or through one with the person who has it? Or what would help? (There could be millions of ways, person-dependant, Maybe Dr. Phil could help with this one). These are just some of the ideas I have, coming from 20 years with an eating disrder, finally truly recovered. It can happen (recovery).

I wake up every morning and my whole body is hurting.I take 3 different kinds of drugs and they help but not for long and I also have panic attacks that I don't have any control over.I try to stay away from things that make me panic,I know the things I panic about are stupid but I don't have any control over it. I couldn't have but 1 chid because of it and I can't do are wear some things because of it. Nothing can be on me that I can't get off, closed in places, when the dentist has to deaden my mouth and I can't get the feeling back then I panic & if my nose gets stopped up I panic. I have Zanax with me all of the time. I would like to know if there is any help out there and let other people know that their not alone!!! Thank you

Could you please do a segment on schizophrenia in children and adults and take away the stigma of mental illness. Most people on modern medications can live a reasonable and productive life. Hollywood movies have made this a feared illness with people running around like maniacs. Please have someone on your show that will show that you can go on to be productive and live healthy. Thank you.

I would like to se childhood disorders discussed. Mainly mental health and Bi polar disorder. My son was diganosised last year at 5years old with Bi polar disorder and would love to hear more about it.

Even though its 2009, being diagnosed with a mental illness(usually more than one) is a huge stigma in society. People either dont understand that mental illness is real and serious, or they think that a person who has a mental illness is 'faking' it for sympathy. Society needs to become better educated on what mental illness is, what the possible causes are, symptoms,etc. They are constantly raising money for cancer research, or diabetes research, however, there is a huge lack of funding for Psychological/Psychiatric research, even though mental illness can be just as deadly and serious as physical illness.
