There are some things I can't bear to think about and my mind always wants to "change the subject". I don't know if this is healthy, or should I face those things?

My place.

It's me , the wife, and our 3 boys we are downtown watching the big fireworks the city has for the 4th of July. The expression on their faces are priceless as they see the variety of fireworks in display. I can go to that memory in my mind anytime i feel myself getting worked up about something or someone has upset me and instantly all is well with the world. What about yours?

I'm nervous about an upcoming appointment, but I keep telling myself that I don't want to be nervous at all. Do you think people can just choose not to be nervous or scared and just switch off those feelings by choice, or is it involuntary?

I have a kind of a phylosphical question for all you. What is the meaning of life, your life. Why do you think you are who you are, where you are. What do you think about God. What is the meaning of all this mess, peace whatever you call it were' living in right now.

Over the weekend my Dad & I had a fight. We exchanged words, cried, & apologized. I still feel weird about the situation because I rarely see my Dad cry & I have the image of his sad face in my mind sometimes. Whenver he's around now, I feel kinda strange..a little nervous, like I'm walking on eggshells & he seems to be extra nice to me. Maybe it's all a figment of my imagination?

The start of our argument came about because I told him I was feeling sad & lacking self-confidence because I have no job, no money & I needed to let it out. I wish I didn't because he's not a very good communicator. He's more of a laid back kind of man, very rational, not emotional, with a sarcastic sense of humor.

I know he loves me & I love him, but I can't help but feel strange around him at this time. I feel like I have to be happy/smiley around him otherwise he'll think something is wrong with me. I don't want to bring it up again with him, but how do I get rid of these feelings I have?

Im not neccesarily a feminist, but I've always had co dependancy issues, I have been controlled, manipulated, and hurt by everyone in my life. Im tired of people always hurting me. This seems like a stupid question but how do you take a stand and stop these people from having any influence in your life? I sometimes wish there was schooling on how do I stop people from taking advantage of me and take a stand?

Jerofjung... gave this answer about Congress:


Has to be better than what we are dealing with. Rich getting richer, Poor getting poorer, Borders not secure, Ports being sold to foreign interests, constant sabre rattling, and a Congress that has done nothing in the last 6 years of any signifigance.

Isn't the USA supposed to be a free market capitalist economy? Aren't people in charge of what they do with their lives?

OR

Is it just easier to blame the failures of yourself and your family on the government rather than take responsibility for your own actions?

I have co- dependancy issues, I let people walk all over me. I apologize to people who hurt me, and Ive never been any other way. I hurt because I want to be more strong of a person but it seems like no matter how hard I try I always am this weak, woman always struggling to become this person I want to be. I feel like everything is holding me back from becoming this person. As a child I lived a sheltered life, I have always been controlled by others and manipulated. How do I learn to take a stand and become a strong woman. How can I keep people from hurting and taking advantage of me. How do I get out of this co dependancy on people? Its so bad that I apologize to someone for bumping into me I ask them to move and they dont move and I say thankyou, I swear Im that bad. I sometimes wanna be a b*tch but I honestly dont have it in me , without being a horrible person ofcourse...

It is interesting to see these studies come out all the time, who is paying for and conducting them? The alcohol companies, the government, alcoholics?

2006-11-01 07:29:50 · 2 answers · asked by Speed Of Thought 5 in Psychology

the premises & conclusion?

1. everyone will readily agree that everyone will readily agree that, if a govt committed the enormous injustice of taking 90% of income and wealth permanently off a randomly chosen 90% of ppl, and giving it to a randomly chosen 1%, violence would increase 100x and happiness [peace, safety, law, order, etc] decrease 100x

2. therefore everyone will readily agree that everyone will readily agree that, if a govt was doing that, and stopped doing that, reversed that policy, violence would decrease something like 100x and happiness increase 100x

3. we have worse injustice than this [1% get 90% of world income, 90% get 10th-1000th of world average hourly pay, etc]

so

4. we can be 100x happier, have 100th violence, by the limitation of fortunes to the just maximum earnable by a person by their work, and giving the overfortunes back among the earners/true owners [which will give every family in the world another US$70,000 income per year]
