Hi all,

I'm a bit of an introvert who's not good at socializing. When I'm in a group where there're some people who talk fastly, I can't usually catch up and talk with a sense (I talk nonsense more than anyone else; while some other time I just respond with whatever typical that makes sense to avoid causing weirdness to the people I'm talking to and pretend I'm following well BUT actually I'm totally empty of ideas inside), unless I'm very very high and determined in it (but still I would be uncomparable to their level). Yes I get distracted pretty easily too.

I would like some techniques (or any suggestion) on thinking and reacting faster, since I sincerely want to improve that...

- I wanna be someone who can make decisions on my own instead of just following the better people's orders or will.

- I wanna be someone who speak his own mind, voice his opinions, BUT how can I do if I don't even have the "mind" nor the "opinions" now..

Thanks a lot. Your help would be appreciated!

Christians, why do you utilize quoting scripture in attempts to prove you are right?

I am asking this as a serious question and I am NOT trying to be inflammatory. I often notice Christians answering questions regarding Paganism, Wicca, etc. will quote Biblical verses. The target audience would have to accept, like you, that the Bible is the infallable word of God for this to be an effective tool. Obviously they don't. So why do you think quoting a Biblical verse is going to carry any weight whatsoever?

Psychological help?

OK, when I am listening some of my mates while they are talking about where-to-go-this-saturday and where-to-find-some-chicks, I feel proudly distanced. As an intellectual, I don't want to be part of their petty issues, rumour, and go-out-lately-and-drink style of life.
But still, when I am listening to them, I feel kind of anxious, like I 'm afraid that there is nobody like me, like I need support from real-life character.
For instance, if same thing happened when I was with my close friend from childhood, (which is similiar to me), I would felt differently. Proud of who I am, pround of my lifestyles and full of self-esteem.
Why is that that in presence in some of my childhood-close-friends I feel proud and full of myself. When they aren't here, I am somehow lost.
*Note 1: I am 15. Note 2: iS it ok? Note 3: Thanks in advance

Lower Back Pain and Some Lower Abdominal Pain...or just Anxiety??

For the past week and a half/2 weeks - I've had off/on pain in my abdomen. It's almost as though I can "feel" my ovaries -and it's just a dull pain and sometimes it will go to my lower back to mid/upper back and go away or sometimes it will go down my thighs. I've noticed some heaviness on my chest too. I had my period very lightly about 1 1/2 wks ago, for 2-3 days and it went away - I had been kind of mixed up with my bc (I'm on yasmin) so I wasn't exactly sure when I was going to get it. So, after I had that last period I started up... now i haven't taken the pill for 3 days (forgot to) and I woke up this morning and when I went to wipe I had dark red blood... Also, I had a miscarriage in mid/end of June, and had a D&C on June 19th... When I found out I was going to miscarry - the doc told me I had a cyst on my Right ovary, but not to worry about it.. it was 3cm. (looked like a golf ball)... I also have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome.

What could this be?

for christians why do you think the bible is the word of God?

The bible was:
*written years and years after the event took place
*it is sexist, racist and bias
*it mixes truth with myth
*the books were chosen (the books that would be accepted into the bible were chosen by people)

no faith answers please!
