With every little thing I do that may affect someone in a negative way, I tend to obsess over it and make myself feel horrible. In the past this has caused me problems with self harm and suicdal thoughts What is causing this and hod can I stop it?

Okay, I don't if this might sound ignorant, but I just wondered if the Indians from India are a different race, like black or white. Or are they a mixture of various races? I'm not sure. On that note, what about Arabs and Mexicans? How many races are there in total?

What is the meaning of life? or to be more specific would be why are we here? We are here because we are the research subject? or we are just here, no "Because" at all or someone is watching us to see how far we can go before we go existen? (Nuclear or Pollution or hit by stars) pls tell us what you think (rational opinions would be appreciated) or if you have new source pls share!!! Already know source for example, Wikipedia source, back to the ultimate, Anunnaki, Mutiverse, Spiritual Path or Consciousness (kinda related subjects eg. Black Hole, Big Bang, Quark) ^_^
I know this is a really tough question therefore not expecting that many people to share their opinions; the underline meaning of this question is just to let people think then it already serve its purpose ^_^

I occasionally do it myself, and it could help clean up the Questions forum a bit. I don't know if you can get banned from return rudeness, but I suspect not. Some people are just being REALLY NASTY, and a little RETURN FIRE could be of assistance. What do you think?

Are they stuck in a certain sense at that place when the incident occurred? I am specifically talking about a traumatic incident such as a death of a loved one, assault (violent physical battery or sexual assault) or violence of some sort. This question was brought to mind by Fran Dresher of all people, who was talking about her years of therapy to overcome an incident when she was raped as a young woman. Even with therapy to help develop coping skills for dealing with the incident, wouldn’t that episode always come back in a way?

I mean, I know a guy who got offended because I tried to explain something to him, but I didn't know that he knew already. "Give me more credit than that!" he said. I would not like him any less if he didn't know. What I wouldn't like is if he acted snobbish about it.
Then again, I also get annoyed if people assume that I don't know things... someone asked me once, "how do you spell 'duct tape'?" to see if I would spell it wrong... like Duh!! I realized that I am also guilty of this.

But why? Is it just pride?
Just because someone is smart doesn't make them any better.
Being wise has more advantage any good leader can tell you that. Think about you friends. Do you like them because they make A's in physics or because they give you good solid advice? And people who are really wise know that they don't have to always flaunt what they know.

I am willing to travel as far south as Cincy and as far north as Troy. Xenia or Springfield is cool too. I don't have a bachelors yet, but I'm one year away from it. I prefer women's issues or social services but I'm open to political (liberal) positions too. My background is in women's studies and psychology and I have experience in chemical dependency and food service. I have my own transportation and my school schedule is flexible. I'm active in women's issues and I hold leadership positions with school organizations. Can some one help me, the papersand online job/career sites aren't very helpful at all.

Recently in Texas 2 teenagers killed their "friend" out of "morbid curiosity". I think instead of sitting in jail they should be sent to fight in Iraq, or wherever our troops need assistance. Let them find out what killing is really like.
