Question by Martha: Mental Health/ Adolescent inpatient/ I feel crazy?
So, I asked this question before, and I got emails saying I got answers, but the answers didn’t show up? So, let me try a second time.

Hello…
My name is Martha. I’m 15 years old. I live in in Miami, I have severe social anxiety, and Panic disorder. It has gotten so bad to the point that I’m afraid to leave my house, I easily become anxious over everything, and I’m driving MYSELF insane with my negative thoughts. I’m depressed, not motivated, had to start online school this year because of how much panic attacks I got last year, and my lack of concentration. Everything is just getting worse by the minute.

My medical insurance, SUCKS. I’m crazy and I’m poor as hell? Uh, not good combination. I have medicaid. It’s not accepted by most “phsycosocial rehabilitation centers” here in miami. Which Is where I want to turn myself into, somewhere to stay, somewhere where I can get better. Not only that but most phsycosocial rehabilitation centers only offer help to adults. Isn’t that cool. I have EXHAUSTED myself trying to find Inpatient centers, treatment centers, phsycosocial rehabilitation centers, that help adolescents. I have found a couple. They look like they suck though.

So, here’s my question. When people turn themselves in to a mental hospital, treatment center, wherever, for a mental illness, do they actually feel better afterwards? Do people in the treatment centers help them face their fear? I mean, my mental disorder is SOCIAL ANXIETY. Do they acknowledge that, and help me face it to live independently? Do studies show that Mental health centers really do help the mentally ill?

Thank you for taking your time to read this ridiculously long passage. I’m desperate, I need help, and if you live in miami, and know anywhere where I can go, that would be great too. Please help me.

Your not alone. And your not crazy. You said it. You are in a state of nervous EXHAUSTION that comes with a nervous illness and it is very bewildering. That is why you are looking all over for answers.
Dr. Claire Weeks ..is perhaps at your local library, a helpful little book Self-Help for Your Nerves. She became a scientist while having an anxiety disorder.
Good little book to help you to understand. And this is the beginning of practicing how to cope.

Question by Noa Bach: What is the difference between a mental health counselor, social worker, or psychologist?
I’m not sure what I want to do. But I know I want to provide counseling to all types of people (children, teens, adults, elderly) my main goal is to help heal them so this can end up healing the Planet 🙂
Don’t want to do any type of testing. I want to help children dealing with bullying, childhood trauma, etc. Adults that need healing from abuse, self-esteem, depression, family problems, sexuality issues etc.

Best answer:

Answer by Weird.
Mental health counselor (clinical psychologist) works with people who have schizophrenia and OCD
and much more

Social Worker works with kids, teens, and adults dealing with troubled living situations and such

Psychologists go in to depth with the patient and can work in a variety of environments, they also prescribe patients when needed.

You sound like you want to be a counseling psychologist which is different from a clinical psychologist. You should look into it more.
