My girlfriend works at a residential home for adults with severe disabilities. Some are ok - they can understand things and chat to you, but others are really impaired mentally and rock to a fro, have difficulty communicating etc etc. Recently i took my 4 yr old daughter to the home which brought in an outside theatre company to perform a xmas panto. My girl enjoyed it, met the residents - stared a little, was confused over the severe ones, paid no attention to the less severe ones - but when we left she asked "dad - why was kelly being stupid?" - Kelly rocks to and fro, side to side, communicates in makaton with sporadic verbal phrases (that only her carers understand). I just said that i would tell her later - putting it off and off. But she is asking about it again, and i dont know what to say or how to explain it. I did think of something like - her brain is broken (making it simple for her to grasp) but i dont think she would know what the brain really does. Any advice please?

I think I've been having panic attacks for the last three weeks. I had a bad one at work and I took a week off. But yesterday was my first day back at work and it was hard. I kept thinking I would have another one and be embarrassed. But I didn't and after work I felt sooo good about it. Then I worked today and I fought through it and I felt even better about it. It's REALLY hard but I refuse to be controlled by this.

Also, if anyone knows of any good Discussion Groups or Website on the subject, could you post it?

And the loss of which one of your senses do you think would cause you the most anxiety? Kindly limit your answer to the 5 normal human senses; in case you happen to be blessed with more than 5, that is. :-)

I'm extremely emotional. I seem to cry every three days or so for a variety of reasons, and often times I break down into a crying fit and can hardly breathe. I love writing, and writing everything down helps to ease the flood of emotions, but I just feel everything inside me boiling over then...I cry.

Is this normal, or a sign of something serious? What can I do to control my tears?

I'm 15, sophomore. I would like to know how to deal with stress in school. I compete in Fencing in the Junior Olympics and after school, I need to go to fencing practice for 2 hours. Then there is an outside academy for training with a Olympic Black Star elite coach in a private lesson. The reason I mention the titles is to point out how heavy the physical and mental exertion is. I also have a few advanced honors class courses and an getting Cs in them. I also volunteer 8 hours at a Hospital on Sundays. Can someone help me make a decision? I like fencing and volunteering, but it's stressful.
I also have friendship and dating issues with a girl who "dumped" me recently. My homework is usually unfinished, and I need to just relax.
My favorite hobbies are Art, listening to music, video games, reading, talking, or watching TV. I dropped art even though I had a scholarship because I don't have time for it.
My family has issues and my father is almost never home.
I think I might snap.
Help?

I have an abusive mother, she has BPD and fictional disorder by proxy, I don't want to get into to many details on here about this, but basically she is out to get me and obssessed with ruining my life. I am in therapy for this, but she is not. I am now over 18 but because of certain situations I developed a physical health condition from excessive stress and was unable to work or attend school for the past year. I was stuck and had to move back home with my parents. The worse possible environment I could be in for this type of thing. I feel I was tricked into being here with promises that she had changed. She has not changed she is as manipulative as ever and now I have allowed myself to get in a situation where I am completely stuck. I have no money, I want to go back to school (my health condition has DRAMATICALLY improved, with therapy) but I do not qualify for enough loans because my dad makes to much money. Even though he will not under any circumstance help me.

I am 39 years old. The mornings are the worst. Since I got married to a anti social guy my drive has left me. I just have nothing to look forward to. What can I do to get my energy and happiness back? We do not go places together or do we even share the same bed. I have become complacent and lack the energy to fix my situation.

I have hardly any friends at school. I'm not hated, i just dont talk to people at all becuase i dont know what to say. My only friends are 3 people i've known since kindergarden. I'm really social around them because it just comes natural talking to them, But around people that aren't them (even people I know well) it's hard for me to talk to them .Since I dont talk to people at school i'm unpopular,well more like unknown. One of my friends who has tons of friends and is like by everyone is positive if i just talked more everyone would love me. My other friend who doesnt go to my school is convinced im popular and doesnt really believe me when i say i dont have friends at school.


Is it possiable for me to talk to random people and for it to come as easy as when im talk to my best friends?
