I feel like I hate my wife and kid. Can't stand being around them. Can't stand looking at them. Just last week I was feeling great. Now I'm feeling like shit and getting worse every day. Can't stand anyone. Just want to be alone.

" I'[m familiar with that mood. But you say last week you were feeling great so there's no reason why you can't again. It's very frightening to get these angry feelings toward people we love so let that motivate you to get back to that better place. Talk to your doc about meds and maybe adding something or increasing dosage. I think it's really good to talk with a therapist so we can understand where this is coming from and what we can do besides meds. Courage! "

" been there done that! and it makes me feel like a horrible person! We have to love ourselves to love others. The hate is a reflection of the hate we feel for ourselves! Focus on positive as much as you can and love yourself thru this. It will soften your heart! Pills alone don't take these feelings away. Our thinking patterns are way superior to any drug out there! That's why they haven't mastered the drug combos for all of us. We are too clever for the drugs! We are the masters of our minds. But we have let our minds become our masters. We got to turn it around! work on changing your thinking. We are what we think! wishing you the best! "

" I know that feeling well. I can't stand listening to my loved ones voice. I want to bash their heads into a wall. Lock myself in my room by myself all day. Then they worry and get in my face and it makes me feel like I hate them more!
*hugs* "

" Being alone is over-rated. Becareful what you wish for.

Hate is a strong word too, I'm sure you don't mean it and it smore the fact you are going thru a hard time right now. "

" I go back and forth between liking people and then barely tolerating them. That's tough when your feelings are towards the people closest to you who love you. I hope you get back to your other self soon.
Ps. I like tommymotts answer. "

" I have also been in this place and I know it isn't at all nice
Therapy along with meds made a huge difference in my life
Along with a strong spirituality
Thinking can be changed and for me it has been a very positive experience. I like to be around me more
I hope you will soon feel better
Bless you "
