I've just been thinking about things lately...about how much I've changed since I was younger (I'm seventeen now). I think about the things I did for fun when I was like five, read encyclopedias, do math, build mouse traps, try to create companies (one was great but I had no capital), and I memorized and could draw by memory all of Africa, its countries' borders, and capitals and such when I was seven...and I just used to be so incredibly sharp mentally. Now I'm a seventeen year old, who has a 1.4 GPA, no friends, and spends hundreds of dollars on books he doesn't read because he spends all day just thinking. I'm a very strong person emotionally, but am also extremely emotional and in some ways lack emotional stability just by my nature. I'm by no means stupid, but I want to return to how I used to be ten years ago. I don't know how though....what can I do? And what has caused me to fall apart so much?

Not a vampire like Dracula, but a person who saps your energy. Most people don't do this but every now and then I meet a person or they are in my circle of friends and as soon as I start talking to them I find myself completely drained of converstaion, of energy, of creativity - while they seem to explode with the same. I watch them with other people and find that soon enough the other person is just sitting there and the "vampire" is full of life. Have you ever met someone like that? Is it just in my mind or do some people have the ability to feed from another person's creative energy and somehow not give back?

If I said I could make you young again, remove all your disease so you could live to be 150, what would you do to get it? This is not merely hypothetical I can do this. So would you do nothing because you are too clever to be tricked by something that you think is impossible even though I could trace your computer and ban you from ever having access to the technology?
Would you be more afraid of being made a fool of than of actually receiving that gift? If you say you would need proof first then you havent read the question properly. Would you go running through the streets naked, or would you just give it up for fear of being made a fool of?

I had a panic attack on the third lane a few years ago, and now I cannot go on the freeway without feeling like I am going to pass out. I feel like such a psycho taking the side streets when it is more convenient to take the freeway. Has anyone had a similar experience and how do I get over this?

With the wealthiest country settled just North of its over-extended boarders, Mexico's green President Calderon decides to place a price cap on corn (32cents per bushel) and corn flour (42cents per bushel). The idea is to be able to limit corn tortilla (THE primary staple in Mexican diets) prices to no more than 78cents per kilo.
With the world's most successful economy directly to the North, One would think Calderon would take a hint...Caps only limit an economy. If he would introduces measures to encourage free trade throughout his country, this would easily remedy the competition the US Ethonal Industry is providing to rival the Tortilla market. Ouch!
Monopolies are hurting our neighbors to the point of economic starvation. What will it take for Mexico to take a hint, take control of their VAST wealth of resources, and climb away from these unhealthy monopolies???

I know I'm not the only one. I often will find myself staring aimlessly into the fire place when the fire is going. So do many of my friends, but nobody can answer why it's so hypnotic.
Any ideas?

Ever since I was a young child as far back as I can remember, I always felt "damaged" in some way, as if something about me just wasn't right, or that I was messed up.

Has anyone else experienced this. Is there a reason for this, or a cause? And this is a serious question, so please don't give me any BS about past lives.

Thank you.

I regret it and admit it was immature but like a year or 2 ago, i pretended i was a guy and tryed to get naked pics of girls i guess i was going through that curiousity stage where you think you could be bi because you get turned on by girls which i wouldn't do it now! I don't have anything against people like that but it's not for me but anyways or i would just pretend i was a guy and get normal pictures or just talk to a girl and pretend to be a guy and be all nice to get information out of them like if i was with a guy to see if he is a player or to see what she said about me or to see if they would cheat and tell their boyfriend! I am 17 now. but this girl i am starting to be friends with is friends with one of the one of the girls i did this to and i feel i have to tell her

Hi. I'd like to ask if someone has a memory-loss, will he still have the same habits or personality as before? I've read in some Psychology books and they say that some habits or personality can't be changed. So I just wonder if it's true in the case of people who suffer from a memory-loss.

I keep forgetting small details and have to repeat information to accomplish some stuff. Although I am very good at remembering numbers. Very absent minded. Any vitamins, mental exercises, I already write down to do lists.
