I have my parents, but other than the television, and the internet, I am in need. What path can I find to happy living wherein human relationships are immaterial? Barring that, what steps can I take to reach out to people and to form close relationships? How important of a step is this to take to have a fulfilling life? Sure, it hurts now and then, and it gets lonely, but I fail to see how to break out of my socially-challenged rut and to get myself some good people to support me. It feels like I have been living in a state of perpetual confusion all these many years. How important is a healthy sex life to the condition of the modern man? What stigma is attached to a life of solitude? It seems it may be well and good to circumvent this terrible narrow way of living, but what can I do about it? What will elevate me above the routine life of a hermit and to put me in contact with those who might respect or love me? What divine meaning and interpretation can I assign to my life?

I quit breathing over 200 times in a 8 hour night ( they had all kind of sensers hooked on me). i don't remember waking up, but it was easy to see on the readout this morning.( and video/ audio tape) Anyway, i have to go back and sleep there tonight with a C.P.A.P. machine ( i will have to sleep with it every night)
That explaines the cronic fatigue, and memory loss, over the past few years, also depression and irratabilaty. I'm really excited, finally some answers as to why i feel like %$^# all the time.
I lost a couple of good jobs, and a 16 year marraige because of this. well i'm glad the marriage is over, but i'm sure going to miss those jobs

There is something very wrong with my brain or something. I don't ever feel like thinking, but I feel like running 7 miles most of the time. I have ADHD, but this seems like a different cognitive problem. I feel like I just keep getting stupider and stupider every day. I don't even understand things I used to easily figure out.

I have a step daughter who was beaten severly twice by her mother and step father. My husband (her biological father) and I were awarded temporary custody however, the child is still required per the protective order to see her mother. My step daughter is TRAMATIZED every time she is forced to go. She begs and pleas not to have to go yet my husband and I would be pentalized for not obeying the protective order. Does anyone else think this is absurd? A child should not be forced to be around their abuser...no matter who did the abuse. Am I wrong?

has anyone ever tried ashwagandha? does it work immediately or we have to take it for several days before noticing any effects?

Im looking for something that helps me relaxing in minutes no matter what and stops adrenaline going to my heart when i think of something that frightens me, for ex. public speaking, so that im calm and more ready to any questions or challenges, is ashwagandha usefull? Alcohol is in a certain way but i dont want to sleep my neurons and behave drunk :)

I often play open mics while I sing and play guitar, however I have a hard time remembering words to songs even ones that are my favourite or even ones that I've written. Is there any excercises or things I can do to better improve my memory in remembering words to songs?

Does anyone know if children as young as 5 or 6 have ever been correctly diagnosed with depression? I would like either educated or experienced opinions/facts if anyone has any.

My daughter was molested and raped and even tortured by her cousin, a babysitter, and more recently, a random 40 year old. She is very moody, she's been drinking, sexually promiscuous, and she has been diagnosed with a variety of mental health disorders, including BPD. She lives with her father, even though I have custody of her, because she just won't talk to me, but relates to him. My ex called me this morning and told me that our daughter has been cutting herself with a knife, repeatedly. She won't talk to therapists. She won't take medication. I really don't know what to do to help her. She is getting to be alot of trouble for us to deal with. How can I help her?

What should I leave in my note? No one really cares. And the few that do, I wouldn't want them to know.
