Hello
A while back I posted a question in this section under the title 'Do I have to see a doctor?' (and here (https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/mental-emotional-health/do-have-see-doctor-808583.html) is the link)

I still haven't visited doctor but I have consulted one anonymously regarding the subjects in the question
He took his time asking a ton of questions and came to the conclusion that asperger's is a very high possibility and so is major depression

However this question is not about that.
My question here today is about a few things that I don't know if I should put in perspective or just ignore, and if possible resolve the issues

My horrible dreams are back, and I always wake up horrified and yelling/crying

My dreams almost always include either death, or torture, or both
And occasionally horrifying sexual stuff added to death and torture, sometimes about black magic, and many many other things and sometimes everything combined (literally everything)

I do hear voices at times but it's never bothered me enough to actually tell someone, but it started in my dreams
The voices in my dreams range from simple words from someone I love/d (with the words meaning a lot to me) telling me that it's okay in the same tone to voices iv'e never heard before saying horrifyingly weird sentences like "LICK THE DOOR", "HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I KILLED YOU??", "RUN, THEY'RE HERE"... etc
Those are just stuff I hear, what I see is different however from the whispers and yells, by that I mean the voices are in the background while I'm seeing/feeling/living a painful series of events

Sometimes when I wake up I see things that are not there or are just plain abnormal, I am wide awake at those times and I can also be talking to someone on the phone or texting them and the next day I remember nothing
However the way I talk is familiar to me (we'll get back to this point in a minute) even though it's not how I normally talk or act

Now one thing that is strange to me is that the dreams almost always occur in the same place, and the hallucinations are almost always the same, and my dreams are always about being hurt, or someone else that was hurt, or is being hurt

I want to talk about location details for a second and what I see from a symbolic point of view and what I feel in those locations and describe them

Location one:
I'm in a place I haven't seen in reality but I dreamed about a lot and has some details close to a real place like colors and texture
What I see: death, torture, horrifyingly sexual behavior
What I feel: fear, pain, the need to protect

Description:
A place full of oddly placed trees, at my right I see only the leaves of a tree in an endless massive perfectly circular hole, the tree must be amazingly huge because the last leaves nearly reach shoulder height
About 150 meters ahead is a massage house that a few females from my family decide to go to, I enter the male section while they enter the female section and what I see is horrifying
The room is very large, on my right I see old men that are alive but have their internal organs lying next to them and they are on oxygen, the floor is flooded with blood
I walk to the end of the room to find in a small golden room blinding neon blue lights with two men with wide eyes staring at me with a smile from ear to ear sitting on red cushions
The man on my right has human skin on the wall behind him just nailed there
The man on the left had a painting behind him, and between the two men was blood and a slaughtered human lying on the floor

Location two:
A place iv'e never seen before
What I see: torture, death, pain, loneliness, mercy
What I feel: immense physical pain, loneliness, incredible fear

Description:
An old house with a fireplace that's been closed, and a painting above it are in front of me
Everything is gray
On my right is a window that's also closed, and I can see eyes through the wooden boards
On my left is nothing but a wall and a door a few meters away from me
With a black dog staring at me

Location three:
What I see: incredible fear, mystery, hatred, jealousy, fake companionship
What I feel: fear, pain, confusion, loneliness

Description:
I'm in this room with four exits
They all lead you to the same room, by that I mean like teleporting you to the same room that only has one window right in front of you as soon as you enter the room and another exit on the right that also leads to an identical room but isn't the room you're in

Location four:
What I see: hatred, fear, violent behavior
What I feel: fear, the need to run

Description:
This place is an industrial ghost town, describing it is nearly impossible
It's gray with a slight tint of dark green
It has a lot of high places that I find myself jumping from one to another

Location five: (for location five and six, I'll describe the whole dream and how I feel when I wake up, and what happens the day I wake up and not just the location)
This is a place iv'e been dreaming about ever since I could remember
What I see: I'm not sure
What I feel: I'm not sure

Description:
A cave with many tunnels, the colors are amazing, it's pretty much the colors you can see on bubbles but in a darker texture

The dream: I walk endlessly in this cave looking for something and hearing the voice of a female, I don't know what I'm looking for, nor who that voice belonged to at first

I wake up feeling weird, everyone looks at me strangely, air feels lighter, I feel lightheaded, and for some reason everyone starts acting strangely as if they know something that I don't, something that makes their every move towards me sympathetic, as if I have lost someone I loved

Location six:
My room
What I see: sympathy
What I feel: sympathy

Description: (as if you were on my bed)
On your right you will fond only a wall with a window
In front of you is a closet
On your left is a desk in the wall
Behind you is another wall with another window

The dream: I'm lying in my bed and on my left is a white chair with me sitting on it
But my skin is pale to the point that it looks blue
He's sitting head down and elbows on his knees and looks incredibly sad and is whispering to himself "why..., why..., why..,"
Suddenly looks up at me and yells "WHY!!"
The next moment he's on my chest and whispers to me a name that I sometimes can hear, others I can't

I wake up horrified and jumpy
And on the day I wake up, I get informed that the person has died later on in the day

Now a dream related to this one happened a few years ago only once
Same first scene but this time he seemed more than sad
He looked so sad he was actually smiling, I know because I do that a lot
And instead of him being on my chest I find myself walking in a street I know very well in real life
But the streetlights and the bus stop were ripped out except one
And I can see the pale me walking towards me and when I got close enough he hugged me and I woke up
On that day I was walking home from school and I saw him sitting on a wall distantly
I slowed down to get a good look and a car accident happened a few meters away from me and one of the cars literally flew so close to me that I could feel the air that moved with it
I wonder what would've happened if I didn't slow down

.
My hallucinations
The three I see most are two friends that passed away, and one -different- little girl
By different I mean strange and abnormal

What bothers me about this is I'm not the only one who's seen the little girl
One of the times I saw her my mother had a glimpse of her and was incredibly shocked
The only other time someone else saw her is a very close friend of mine that said that she sees her a lot
And we almost always see her on the same nights
I saw something terrible happen to the strange girl
After that we never saw her again

.
Feel free to ask for further details that you need to know
I'm sorry I tend to get unorganized and scattered when I try to describe something
And of course it's hard to remember every single detail

And I'm sorry it's a very long question but I wouldn't ask for the help if I didn't need it

Thank you for your time

Why was Asperger's mentioned as a possible diagnosis?

It was mentioned as a possibility on the question I posted a while ago (linked above)

Hello
A while back I posted a question in this section under the title 'Do I have to see a doctor?' (and here (https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/mental-emotional-health/do-have-see-doctor-808583.html) is the link)

I still haven't visited doctor but I have consulted one anonymously regarding the subjects in the question

So, WHY exactly haven't you seen a doctor... yet somehow think you are qualified to self diagnose. And some anonymous internet "doctor" isn't much better. You get what you pay for.

Apparently you really don't want to get better....it actually appears you enjoy suffering so that it gives your life meaning. Most of us would go to a doctor to improve our mental and physical health when needed.

You should really think before you show your teeth accusing anyone of not doing something for their personal reasons
At this period I don't have the time nor money to consult a doctor
Right now I can only afford to call one with my identity being hidden, not his

I came here asking for help in one way or another, not for criticism

And you have no idea what I'm going through, nor the slightest clue of how intense it is, yet you leave a comment like that

If you're not here to help then I suggest leaving this question to someone who will

Diagnosing yourself is like representing yourself in court. There is a wise old saying for that. The man who represents himself in the court of law has a fool for a client. Applies the same to getting advice from an Anonymous "Doctor" who could be anything but an actual licensed doctor. And if you have some fear that "requires" this be done anonymously. You have more issues than you think.

Before you start showing your teeth.. for what has been perfectly valid advice and a very valid observation... you need to ask yourself, if you have money to own a computer, money to pay for internet service, you also probably have money for a cell phone... then you actually do have money to spend on your own health. Which most people, like me, consider to be the most important thing of all. If you don't have your own health... then you have nothing and all the toys you can buy isn't going to change it.

And by the way...you are also incredibly rude...


"Question: Things that have caught my eye (https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/mental-emotional-health/things-have-caught-eye-811904.html#post3728155) {"why": "this comment was incredibly hurtful to me", "source": http://thehill.com/blogs/congress-blog/healthcare/223650-americans-cant-afford-us-medication-need-a-safe-alternative}"

I can dish out a negative feedback just as easily as you.....I just don't do it when advice is valid, but just not what you was wanting to hear.

And its obvious..you only want to hear what you want....not what you need to hear.

Sorry of that "upsets" you...that that's reality....and it's blunt honesty. Its wasn't said out of meanness like your response was.

What YOU need you can't fix yourself....you need to see a real doctor, and you need real medications....you CAN'T get that online. And you won't get better until and unless you do. It is treatable...but if you are an adult...nobody can force you to get it until you become a danger to yourself and others.

1. the doctor is well known here
And I like my privacy a bit more than you do, regardless of what you think I'm keeping myself anonymous from you and anyone I don't trust

2. you're actually comparing the price of a $20 bill to medication?
Medication expenses here are incredibly high, physical and mental alike

You're best with cars, computers and electronics
This section is for mental and emotional health

And yes my comment is rude
What were you expecting exactly?
I'm working as hard as I can to pay for my university which by the way is cheaper than medication

And of course I want to hear what I want to hear
I want to hear any way to at least temporarily resolve the issue until I can actually afford the incredible expenses of medication

The doctor I called was not online
I only managed to get him to talk to me after having it arranged by e-mail
And guess what? It costed a lot too

You may be able to afford medication where you are, and I'm really happy for you
But don't just go around saying stuff like that to people who are less fortunate than you

Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do to help you. Part of diagnosing and treating is observing body language. That can't be done via the internet or phone. Unless or until you get help in person you will continue to suffer from these issues.

So... you keep giving excuses... Know everything already, don't want to hear what you need to hear... and really want to do everything you can to AVOID the inevitable.

Good luck.

Incidentally... you don't get to dictate where I can answer and where I can't answer, nor that of anyone else.

I know people... I am VERY good at reading people... far better than you are. And like J_9 has said as well. You aren't going to get better until you stop making excuses and go see a real Doctor and a real therapist. They work... but only if you go to a real one...and keep going.

I got my College degree... and I also paid for it myself. I know what things cost.

You get what you pay for... and you got free... considering a Doctors medical degree can easily cost over $250,000 that they have to pay for, plus interest. They work very, very hard to pay those loans off (as well as other medical professionals.). Consider the quality of something free online.

Thank you for your concern
I will consult one as soon as I can afford it
I'm picking up a second job next month which will help a bit

smoothy
I'm not trying to avoid it
It WILL happen sooner or later
I just CAN'T right NOW

What I can do now is look for a way to resolve the issue temporarily
Which is what I'm looking for

and as you've mentioned
they work only if i keep going
i can't pay $200 per hour
very few actually can

I see what you are saying... but what I am saying is this is something that is actually beyond being a DIY project.

I'm a DIY kind of guy... but this is something even medical professionals in that field... will seek out another doctor or therapist because they can offer something even the best doctor in the field can't do when it concerns themselves... being an objective observer. A critical element in this.

You are in university, correct? If so, your school most likely has
a psychology department. They can help you on a free (for students) or sliding-scale basis.

You won't find the help you need here. You need more than we are equipped to give.

I do think that there are times here when there is too much 'go see a doctor' when people know very well that most of the world can't afford one and may not even have access to one. As long as we are clear that we are just mulling over possibilities, it can be helpful to give some ideas.

I do think, SoulWatch, that you are too caught up in the details of your dreams and possible hallucinations (just waking up doesn't count - it's very common to keep dreaming as you wake). I do sympathize with the scariness of the dreams, and how they can run your life. I once took a medication that not only caused far too many vivid dreams, but the dreams didn't really leave my mind during the day, and if I so much as blinked, I could 'see' them behind my eyelids.

I do have a question about a remark you made above about someone dying the day you dreamed that they died --- am I saying that right? Did that happen?
