Social Science - 15 February 2007

Has it ever crossed your mind that someone might recognise you
and get to know your most intimate secrets when coming on here?
I have told friends and workmates that I come on here and they
want to know my name. And I don,t mind telling you I don,t want
anyone to recognise me!! I don,t mind giving a recipe - but!

I am looking for the study that this article is discussing.

"An article in the Science Times section of The New York Times on Tuesday February 6, 2007 about a study finding that talk therapy is an effective treatment for panic disorder"

It appeared in The American Journal of Psychiatry.

I have tried just about everything, but I still can not find the motivation to do anything that I know I should do or things I really need to do. I'm just plain lazy, but I don't want to be. Any suggestions?

I know that I have OCD, but I have this obsession where I like to hurt people and I love biting people. Do I need to see a therapist, or am I okay?

All I do is sit around and answer people's questions all day, and my husband makes fun of me. Don't tell me it's playing World of Warcraft, because then he'll be right!!!

I have heard that the number of women falsely accusing men of rape is higher than the actual number of rapes committed. Does anyone have any actual research figures or opinions on this?

Lately ive been feeling really depressed. I dont like talking about it. And i know that people say oh its just a phase, but this doesnt seem to be getting any better. Ive resorted two times ,already, to self harming. Dont get me wrong that i dont regret it, but im feeling so down.. thought about suicide even. I put on a show for my friends so they dont see the real thing, And i dont feel like i can tell them.
I need help !?!
Does anyone have any solutions for me feeling happier with myself ??

I was taught to never judge a book by its cover, but do you think how a person is in life, is reflected on their face? I have met many great people in life, and many not so great. It seems that the ones that are just unhappy reflects on their face and gives them a rather haggard look. Do you agree with this? It seems to make sense though that how a person lives, is shown on their face. thanks

I learned something today about the human eye. I think it is life a life changing discovery that anyone can do right now.
I don't have very good vision. As all people have done through time we have to squintto try and help our vision. This squinting has led to wrinkles. It is also stressful.
My discovery is one that has the ability to see better by relaxing. I concentrate on the back of my head as a starting point I relax my eyes and it improves my vision. It works a multitude of times better than when I try and strain. Unfortuently, it takes a couple of seconds to do; I have to focus and almost meditate to accomplish it.
Of course for safety reasons I am still going to wear my glasses but I am glad I have a backup.

I usually charge thousands of dollars for this treatment, but for the Yahoo Answer community I am giving it to you for free.

That would save tons of money and considerable savings in ALL financial aspects of life. Healthcare would be less expensive due to the lack of demand. Energy would be greatly in surplus. Every imaginable cost would be less.

And just think.... the lucky ones will no longer require welfare because we can pay them to do the extermination.

I keep hearing "feminists" do this... or "feminists" do that. Feminists are man-eating, power hungry lesbians, who are constantly playing the victim, right?

Liberal feminism is the belief that women should have equal opportunities to men in our society, and the ability to decide what happens in thier lives and to their bodies (I'm not talking about abortion or birth control, I don't want to open that can of worms). Why is "feminism" such a threatening word? Why does the idea of feminism make so many men and women defensive?

I notice the old dress's they where bulky with many layers of under wear beneath them for style but all the women had to cook or work around camp fires and stoves that could flick a hot ember this would ignite the dress if she live she would have gastly scares from it.
