I have OCD and have heard people say that OCD tends to affect the smarter half of the population, and I am very interested in psychology and science so this interested me. I'm not out to prove I'm smarter than everyone else in the world or anything, I'm just curious if there's really any correlation. I haven't seen anyone cite any sort of study or anything yet.

admit it over 90% of the stuff in the "news", are BAD news. nothing good ever happens in the news.

and its always disturbing when reading about some plane that crashed or whatever, because deep inside you know something like that can happen to you

so why read news? like me, I don't read news anymore. I stay at home all day, troll on YA!, watch videos on youtube (happy videos), eat some smilies potatoes, have some apple juice and go to bed. why focus on negative news?

We’ve been broken up for 1 month now and I think I’ve gone through most of the grieving process. It hurts now and then when I think of him but the problem is that I think about him ALL THE TIME. I sometimes dread falling asleep because now and again I'll dream about him and the dreams just set me back another day in my "breakup" recovery. What should I do? I just want to get past this person. It’s like I’m holding on to every little thing in my mind just so he won’t fade away. He was a terrible person (like beyond terrible) and I will never, ever, in a million years get back with this loser…so why can’t I feel that reality? Why can’t I feel what’s right for me? Why can't I let go?

Lately I've been really worried that something is wrong with me. Some nights I get 3 or 4 hours sleep and am fine, and some I seriously can't drag myself out of bed after 9 or 10. Then I'll have these weird times where I seriously can't stop laughing and everything is amusing. Like, for example, I'll start cracking up if someone says 'sock'. Then about an hour or two later, I'll be so sober and serious and mature. In the serious moods, it is literally impossible to make me laugh. During my happy half of the day, I love everyone that walks this planet, but during my serious half, I don't want to be within a mile of anyone. And these mood swings happen so suddenly... it's starting to worry me. Could it be bipolar or some other mental thing?

PS: my dad is manic depressive... if that makes a difference.

There is this guy that I've met recently who has ADD. He also has a very driven but quite superior kind of attitude. I wanted to have a relationship with him but he turned me down. He said I'm not up to his mental callibre. The thing is, I can see alot of inner hate in him. He feels like he has to do something or he will be a failure in life. I told him that I was worried he was going to stress himself out too much and how I don't want him to get sick. His response to that was "How weak do you think I am?" I keep my composure around him even if though I know he tells me I'm feel inferior at times with his statements like that. I don't believe I am inferior to him btw. He asks me to bring positive light into his life because I am optimistic and try to be positive. He even says that he needs me because of this and I am one of the few people that can lead him out of this darkness in his life (negativity and hatred). What do you think i should do? What do you think about this situation?

If someone is bipolar is it possible that they are not aware of what they are doing or did, say for example if they committed a crime?

Please i do not need any body to sit and judge me, i just would like to hear if anybody has any suggestions. i'm 17 and am a high school senior. i used to self harm when i was 14 after loads of stressful things happened in my life. i was taken to a psych hospital for teens for a year and wasn't in school. i managed to get my self together and worked my butt off to not get left behind a year, and now i'm on point to graduate next year with the rest of my grade, so i'm super proud of myself. the only problem is i'm left with loads of nasty huge scars on my
arms that are so noticeable so i can't wear cute little tanks or whatever. And alot of my friends don't understand as self harm period is looked down upon by society but as an african american teenager we're just 'not meant to do that' so there's nobody i can really talk to about it. what do ya'll think i should do just cover up my arms for the rest of my life or is there any thing to heal the scars so they are not so noticeable.

I got off work today and showered and crawled into bed, I remember waking up and asking my girlfriend something, but i was half asleep, I knew when I said it it did not make much sense. She said I woke up about 5 or 6 more times and did the same thing, asking crazy off the wall questions that just were jumbled and made no sense, but that i told her they made sense to me at the time. I know I have been working doubles the past month or so, and have on average gotten about 5 or 6 hours of sleep a day... is the lack of sleep making me crazy?? or was it just a strange morning.

Ever since I was a little girl, all I wanted was to get married, have kids, have a good career, spend time w/ my family & enjoy life. Instead, I'm 36 yrs old, never married, unhappy in my job (& life), & a single parent of a preteen. My parents divorced while I was in college. I have an eating disorder that I battle every day. I have a condition that scarred my legs permanently which makes me self-conscious about getting involved w/ anyone. I haven't been on a date in over 4 years! And to make matters worse my mom, passed away last year, and I just can't shake the despair of never seeing or talking to her again.

I just don't enjoy life anymore. I go to work (from home),watch TV, eat & sleep. I work out daily but still struggle w/ my weight. I've tried online dating & therapy/meds to no avail. I just don't know what to do. I envy young people who have their whole lives ahead of them. I'm almost 40 and feel life is over, I think about suicide a lot...is there any help for me?
