I think I may have Aspergers?
Sounds like you have a combination of ocd and autism (asperger's). You need someone to help guide you through this. Don't choose a counselor that sees you as something to fix. Find someone who has actually worked with autism hands on. No book can teach what every person needs because autism is complex and so different for each individual. You find something you really want to try and go for it. READ MORE

Are bipolar people manipulative?
Being bipolar doesn't make them more or less capable of being manipulative. Just being human causes that. Having said that, some people will use their diagnosis as an excuse for bad behavior. Don't accept that. Being bipolar doesn't give them an excuse to be abusive or manipulative. Hold him accountable for his actions. He could be seeing you excuse his behavior or acting guilty and using it. If this is new behavior it could be linked to his medicine. Please tell the Dr about your concerns READ MORE
How do I know if my wife is a nymphomaniac?
As women age, several factors come into play. They don't have to devote themselves to young children, and hormones fluctuate that can lead to an increase in libido. Women often feel like they experience a rebirth in their late 30s to early 40s. It's not unusual, but men feel a little startled by this new behavior. You essentially have a new life partner. My advice is get to know this new partner. Tell her how you're feeling and try to enjoy yourself. It usually doesn't last long. So, just go have some fun. READ MORE
My father started hallucinating. What can we do to help?
It could be several things. I will start with the easiest to handle: He could be having a reaction to his new medicine. It could be the onset of dementia. And, lastly, and the hardest to hear: He could be reaching the end of his life. I have been with many people before their death when they speak of seeing relatives. If you're religious, this can be comforting. If you prefer science, this is the mind preparing death and there are chemical changes that explain why, but the mind is a complex organ and no one knows for sure. But take him to his family physician so he can run some tests. READ MORE
What are the best ways to overcome negative thoughts?
Keep yourself occupied. Read something that will take your mind off your worries. Exercise, good sleep, and good food help as well. We live in high-stress society. Know that you're not alone and it's not the end of the world. READ MORE
