Social Science - 21 December 2006

Have you ever felt so sad and no one could understand you, so you get even more sad, but even if you want to cry you realize there is no use, because that won't solve anything, so if you cry you'll just waste your time... and then be sad again... I just realize this only after many times I locked myself in the bathroom and cried and then I got out as sad as I was before... How can you resolve something that can't be resolved by you... and you just have to wait, but you don't know for how long. And you must remain like that until that someone does what he has to do... I am always like that and I feel I'm going crazy! I just can't stand it anymore... No one understands me! If I'll tell them this, they'll say I'm crazy. I know that because she said it right in my face. Yes, my mom said it. And if not even my family can't understand me, not even my sister, who else can? I'm alone here... My family is living their life, passing right by me, and not knowing how I really feel.

We all have personal values, like honesty, family etc. But: is it all just talking and thinking - or by what actions do you really prove that you follow a specific personal value?

..a problem in itself [ie seeing cartoon violence and laughing at it doesnt present a problem]

..........but the fact that bart&lisa are themselves laughing at the violence [which addults can perceive is ironic] young minds might be making the connection-----cruelty=fun or cruelty=laughter.

i know its only a cartoon for godsake..but dont other people think there is a distinct difference between seeing funny violence and laughing at it....as opposed to seeing a character laughing at violence that is occuring?

Milk is a local product from farmers everywhere. Most of our oil is on reserve and is an imported product. Most people complain about gas prices, but we pay more for milk.

I'm not insecure because I have a good deal of pride in myself, and have confidence in my abilties, especially when competing. Anxiety doesn't really explain it either. I work in retail and for one I have trouble looking people in the eyes sometimes, but typically only if I think about it. When I first go into work I'm pretty "Confident" I guess you can say, but later on in the day I start to "wear" down and my social skills seem to deteriate. I can't talk right, and don't feel like talking. It's hard for me to make small talk and find words to say and find myself forcing the words out. Like if I think about it too hard, when they leave I get extremely nervous and don't know what to say. Have a good night, duh. Or if they say something else I'll say something totally out of context. But other times I pretty much carry on the conversation enthusiastically. It's like night and day. What does this sound like? Thanks all

I'm not saying that everyone feels happy only if another person is sad, I'm saying most of the people do.
And when I say they're happy only when another person is sad, I didn't mean that for example they're happy when they see someone crying on the floor! I meant that they feel happy when someone else is sad but without intention! I mean, that they don't know someone else is sad when they're happy! I mean, that something you might want to do may make you happy, but it may cause someone else to be sad! They make someone else sad when they are happy! But without intention! Do you understand me? I just noticed that happens in most of the cases.

People refer a week as a 7-day cycle because they have been born into a world that applied it long before they born, but in reality that number is acctually a number. The day count can acctually be 6 or 8. Well, it could be a long history. But how does the cycle can improve the quality of life and to the human nature if it is different from 7? can it contribute to a better way of our living? to accomodate the fast style of living ?

It seems, the less you talk, the more smart you seem. If you talk more, peoples respect for you diminish unless what you say is very interesting. Socially, if I talk, I talk too much and can often have those "weird" moments. But if I don't talk very much at all with a little body language thrown in, people take this completely different and take an interest to someone. It's just something that's weird and slightly annoying. I personally don't talk much to save myself from embarrassing myself and instead attract people and not know what to do about it. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

I'm doing a project on happiness and I found some research saying that although humans have six core emotions - happiness, sadness, surprise, disgust, anger, and fear - the only one that is a positive emotion is happiness. This made me start thinking: why do people like being happy? Is there any scientific basis to it? Or is it purely psychological or intuitive?

I had met several times people who would say something first and later when the situation would become different, contradict the previous statement and tell that he had actually told me to do something according to this new situation and that I am guilty of not listening to him!!! I feel like punching at his face. Is my reaction wrong? There are people who would criticize you if you take the right turn saying that you should have taken left turn and if you take the left turn they would say right turn is the correct turn. I meet people who teach something but do not follow that themselves. I really hate these people for their behaviour. There are people in offices who are just puppets under the hands of lower rank stuff. I hate when people say something stupidly without knowing the real story. I can not tolerate such people. I have strong hatred for them and because of this sometimes feel jittery that I have to live among them. How to deal with such people?

I recentley tried to give up taking Es as i had started using them all the time and they were messing my head up. I lasted a few months but then started to take the odd one now and again, now its back to how it was before if not a worse. When im on the pills i dont care about anything and i feel so happy but there starting to take over i'm going on benders where i dont go to sleep and just keep taking them. The other thing that has made me want to try and stop again is because when iv been high i have tried some stronger drugs which i always promised myself i would never take. I really want to stop taking them but the paranoia and depression is really hard to handle. I have always been told that Es are not addictive so why are they so hard to stop taking? I'm only 21 and i really do want to sort myself out before things get any worse. How can i keep off them?
