Social Science - 11 December 2006

I noticed that over the years I have developed a tendency to not be able to laugh as much as I used to (sounds odd)

I rarely laugh and when I do it's normally fake laughing or over something really, really, stupid.

When I do see something thats totally funny on TV I laugh to myself unlike other people who laugh out loud.

I either put it down to the fact that I have a very dry or dark sense of humour or I believe I may have lost my sense of humour completely as I suffer from mild depression.

I'm being serious about this so no piss-taking answers please!!

It was towards the end of the school year. High School exams were rapidly approaching. It was my junior year, i have taken high school exams before. So, that couldn't have caused me a stress overload. I know that before i had acute pychosis. I started going through a personality change. I became extremely religious in my christianity. I was drinking alot of caffiene.

I've often heard this referenced, but I don't know much about the origins of it or where to find out more about it. Where would I look to learn more?

what do you think about a person who you see walking down the street who can't make eye contact, walks with a bad posture, and looks nervous? would you find the person looking unattractive, ugly?i'm talking about me. i have social anxiety and go through this most of the time because i'm uncomfortable in my own skin around my others and people always say negative stuff about me that makes me feel down. I feel like if i can be myself than people might actually find me pretty because some people that i am comfortable around tell that i am pretty.

Sometimes i am so shy that i cannot meet people's eyes and i often stay aside afraid that those who are more beautiful or elegant than me would pass any unfavourable remark about me. sometimes i watch certain people who talk freely they donot get worry about anything. How do i overcome my shyness and how do i become confident?

I personally don't like shopping unless it's necessary (groceries etc) My spouse seems to get some kind of comfort from shopping-for hiself or others. Just do not understand what it does for a person.
