i was wondering becuase i am writing a story and i don't want to be super clichè (sp?)

if there isn't one i could make the story around something else. any suggestions? something that would cause a person to try and escape an institution?

oh yeah and if i am being offensive...i'm sorry.

Is it possible to condition yourself to need less sleep? or will you just suffer from Constant sleep deprivation?

I know its possible to alter the time of your sleep wake cycle, but how about the length?

Alright so I asked my mom if I could have someone to talk to you know like a counselor because I was dealing with a lot of issues. So she got me a therapist at first the reason why I was going was clear I'm kinda anxious and went through something. But now its all turned against me and apparently this crazy broad (therapist) is trying to tell my mom that I'm an alcoholic and really freaking her out. Shes printing off all these papers about where I am and how its affecting my life yada yada yada. well one- I never went there for a drinking problem and two- I dont have a drinking problem!! So now I'm thinking about calling it quits with the therapy.. should I?

i am only in my first year in college and i am majoring in psychology. i sometimes wonder how difficult it is to get a psychologist position after graduate school. for those who are actually employed as psychologists, how is your workplace/working environment setup?

I tend to remember every little detail. It plays like a movie in my mind. I can remember colors (or lack thereof; one dream was entirely in shades of gray), dialogue, and even the random characters that don't exist in real life.
However, if my alarm goes off and I jump out of bed, I only remember one or two scenes.
What are dreams like for everyone else?

I know this would be easier and you would have a different answer if you knew him but what do you do when your boyfriend messed up alot and you broke up alot but you really think he is different now? he gives you his password, tells you that you can call anytime. We are engaged now and he does seem different this time even my friend thinks so because she hangs out with us sometimes. When we break up he does tell different girls at a time he loves them but he tells them we are engaged now and have a baby on the way. If a girl calls his cell phone and i'm with him he tells them he is with his girlfriend. Should i just tell him he really does need help? What do i do? I wanna be with him. He is with me 24/7 except tonight he went to a concert but i didn't want to go because i don't like that music and i am sick. Do you think getting help will work? if he loved me, he wouldn't have had spent all the money on me for the ring. I have lots of proof he really did buy it the other night. HELP!

In other words do you think it's better to be considered "normal" and work a job and just scrape by,(like the majority of middle class America) or to seek a legit business opportunity that can have a 6-7 figure income potential that is out side the traditional corporate structure and may not be seen as the norm.

I was sitting with a mixed group of friends the other night and talking about where a woman likes to be kissed and the biggest turn on..one woman said she loved her eyes being kissed, and every female in the group agreed. I would have thought there would have been other body parts a bigger turn on. Does anyone agree, because its the first time I have ever heard of this ??

You know when you see people, and you think, they are outstanding....what is the essence of what they have?

Is it different for different people, as I suspect?

Seriously think about it for a second what do you think you would honestly do? How about if there were 2 people in the vehicle?

Can a person be vain...obsess over certain facial features in the mirror, etc...yet have trouble believing he or she is attractive? Explain why. I think it IS possible.

Ok a few years back I had the best guy friend I ever had but he started to be emotionally abusive so I cut him off when I went on to college. I haven't really thought of him since but occasionally or out of the blue he'd show up in my dreams, we'd either be making out, or greeting and hugging

Well the last few weeks in the last month he's been in my dreams at least three times. Most of it was about seeing him again and me apologizing, we make up and hug each other and hang out.

Sure I'd like to see him again but I don't think about him all the time or rarely. And when I do have a dream about him I wasn't thinking about him in my waking life.

So what would this mean?
