I don't appear to be "on the same wavelength" as my friends.

I can't retain information on certain subjects!! that is why i failed my exams.

i am deemed incompetent at most jobs i've worked in!!

people call me lazy all the time and i'm not i try really hard at what i do.

i'd love to be normal like everyone else is.

it is awkward and frustrating and gets me down sometimes and i feel like a failure. :(

and I see images of me killing myself. I could be talking to someone and just look away for a split second and an image and a feeling will pop in. I have bipolar and I have a doctor. I just dont understand why i get images that flash in and out. I can go from ok to I really feel I can kill myself. Sometimes it seems calmer thinking of going that way. I dunno just not real sure on how I feel.

Well... I had a dream that I went out with my family and ate some chinese food ( I rarely eat chinese food in reality) Anyhow it was really good but I overindulge myself I ate in massive quantities like never before and felt so disgusted and very bad about myself with the amount of food I had eaten..... That was pretty much my dream yet I also would think that the reason why I would dream this its because I went to sleep with an empty stomach but i'm still not sure ... maybe it means that I should control my eating habits what do you think?

You dont know them the moment they occur, but have you ever reflected back on certain things in your life and discovered maybe an exact moment that changed your life forever. I am not talking vaugue details but literal moments in your life. Here are some examples.

1)When I was in highschool I dated a guy I thought I really loved and/or he loved me. Yet there was a day he said one thing and I knew it was over. Looking back I see how the words he said changed my life forever. I ended up meeting the guy I married. Maybe I should call up the old ex and thank him for being such as ***!

2) Ironically I met my hubby through my dad. He just got dumped and he had a female friend whose husband just died. The started hanging out more for comfort. Her son was introduced to me and years later we were married. Had my dad not gotton dumped and her husband not have died then we may have never met.

Ok am I weird to think about such things in context like this?

I had three dreams last night all ending the same;me waking up sweating and frantically reaching for my boyfriend. I knew I was going to have a weird dream because before I went to sleep i felt an eery awkward feeling, like something was wrong, or had been changed. Nevertheless around 2 in the morning I felt myself dosing off. I began to dream of a regular day I was out and trying to reach for a door to let some anonomous person in. Next thing I know I'm back in my room I can see everything I get really cold then hot and I can't move, talk, or breathe. This kept happening to me three times. Each time I was reaching for something and then sent back to my paralyzed state in my bed. What do you think that means?

Consider working for many years and becoming ill and disabled and older with a lower income. What would you do if you were such a person? How would you feel if you became aware of blatant discrimination against you because you no longer look as healthy, young, wealthy? What might you say to a store employee who asks to see a receipt for your purchases before you are allowed to leave the store? What if someone stood beside you at a deli asking you if you need any help when you're just trying to decide which sandwich to buy? What if you were followed around a store while just shopping like you have in the past (and were not followed)? Remember you are still an honest, contributing, straight forward person with physical appearance differences. Please tell me exactly what you think, please.

I went for abut 2 years, did service work, but got tired of a lot of hypocrisy in the members, the useage of the program to excuse bad behavior in members who had been in the rooms for a ong while("we're sick but getting better") I am grateful I learned about how its easier to stay clean tha to get clean I no longe have issues about substances, and I have gone thru very trying times (deaths, operations etc) and it never occurred to me to use. I also credit NA fo helping me find my spiritual center, but stil I meet membvers who say oh you will rlapse and that i will not ake it without NA. I say they are brainwashed and afraid, that recovery programs should NOT become another crutch. I collected all my keytags and have been clean for anumber of years I relapsed in the program so I know what signs to watch for. Am I doomed wit to end up back in a gutter some day if I don't hurry back to "the fold" (lol i don't think so I am just asking)

Does simply seeing an unclothed human form cause arousal? Nothing about the pose or expression being overtly sexual. Or rather do we condition ourselves to be excited by nudity because it's something we're not supposed to see?

My parents have always been weight conscious. After being told repeatedly how fat and awful I looked, I developed an eating disorder. I've gone from 140 lbs at 5' 5" to my current weight - 103 lbs.

I've tried developing regular eating habits but the weight gain is a bit frightening. I want to end this but when I remember how low I felt during my heavier days, it becomes considerably difficult to do so.

How does one overcome this condition successfully?

I feel this way right now... what should I do?

when it's this way, wouldn't it just be better to be in total control of yourself, of your emotions, so that you could never suffer this much and feel head over feet?

I dreamed of a duck lying on the family room floor at my grandma's house. My mom and grandma were there, and so was my husband and I. I was petting the duck and he felt oilily and greasy - didn't know he was dead until my husband said so. What does this mean, if anything??

I just found out that a friend of mine has been pretending to be a guy on the internet playing SIMS. Only she has people believeing that she is a guy, and that other women want to meet him (her) because they are in love. I didn't know how to react to that, so I just laughed it off, and said she was crazy, but does she need psychiatric help or is this normal for on-line behavior?
