I see very high levels of unsuccess in schools and associated indiscipline and violence.
The governments are spending more and more money with Psychologists and Psychiatrists in schools in the last 25 years, though the problems are increasing year after year. Do you believe that more Psychologists and more Psychiatrists are THE RIGHT SOLUTION for the problems in our schools?

If they are THE Solution, why then do we have more and more problems in our schools?

Now, this may be a bit 'out there', but what I'm getting at is beliefs about myself.
I'm pretty sure now, having read and thought an awful lot about this, that people like Bill Gates, Michael Dell, Trump, etc succeed so much primarily because they have almost total belief in themselves.
Trouble is, I DONT have total belief in myself. What can I do to change this? I believe that I'm pretty smart/knowledgable, etc. But this is not enough! If totally honest, I believe that I am 'average'. And as long as that belief prevails, I will stay 'average'.
So, in summary, how do you foster a REAL belief (and it has to be a REAl belief, not just a 'positive thought').

What would say is the complete opposite of "Not In"? some say OUT and some insist it is IN, apparently the latter is known to be the correct answer, because it has Logic.

You may think this question has no relevance to Psychology, but you be suprised how creative this question requires you to be. (on both sides)

What Is your Opinion? (Im personally not sure"

I believe my husband of 16 months, whom I am divorcing has NPD,and all the characteristics of a Distempered Psychopath and Charismatic Psychopath. He is obsessive-compulsive. He has many characteristics of Histrionic Disorder. He is abusive verbally and emotionally. He has already resorted to a full fledged discrediting campaign by spreading false rumors about me. He has made me look like the mentally ill one. He started isolating me socially months ago, he would pick a fight so we couldn't go to social functions with my friends. If the social function was with his friends, he would go without me. He is charming, handsome & successful. He is embarressingly flirtatious with women in front of me, always with sexually provocative undertones. My family is completely conned by him. My mother has secret conversations with him( she is narcissistic and was abusive to me.) His mother was a Kleptomaniac. His behavior is getting bizarre. How dangerous could he be now that he knows I am leaving.

Is it possible to stop the stupid thoughts that you get with anxiety. I have tried every method under the sun, The Linden Method was excellent, it cured all the symptoms, Panic attacks etc, I no longer have the fear of fear as they call it, the only thing that none of these methods have cured it the stupid thoughts.

When I say stupid thoughts they are thoughts about when I was at the worst with my anxiety, and the thing that triggered my anxiety which was a break up, they say time is a healer but I have suffered these thoughts 10 years, also thoughts about hurting members of my family which in turn make me depressed,

Is this the best I am going to be? Am I always going to have these thoughts? I have tried to forget them, distract myself but it doesn't work, when I first wake i'm fine, but about 10 seconds later they start flooding in,

Any advice appreciated?

I already have my opinions on this. I think it's had a more than negligible impact on most women. I think mislead feminism has caused good men to be in a similar position in the home as good women are in the workplace. Women (historically more than today) have to work harder and be better than men to be viewed as equal in many parts of the work force. I believe, on average, men who are at least equal in their ability to be a suitable romantic partner or husband have to put up with at least somewhat more fallout from their woman than she does from him. By fallout I generally mean an "I'm OK-You're not" attitude. He's romantic, he's self-sufficient both with chores and money, he's a respectful communicator, he's handsome, and fun to be around, but.........still at greater risk of nagging and shaming from his woman than she is from him. I've asked about a hundred questions in this forum. This is the one that really matters to me. If me not dating is the answer, so be it.

I heard so many people say if you dream this or that, it has certain meanings.

I don't really know. I just have weird dreams sometimes. Ranging from scary, happy, painful, just plain weird.

What gives, are there any real meanings to dreams?

Which American values are implicated in the crisis posed by global warming, and to what extent, if at all, must these values be adapted or abandoned in order to address the problem?
Something that really stands out to me is our individualistic and materialistic culture, and how concerned we are with appearances, and the notion of "bigger is better". What do you think?

Stupidity is a lack of intelligence whereas ignorance is a lack of knowledge. I'm just curious - why do people tend to confuse the two and use them interchangeably?

Do they honestly not realize the difference or do they simply use it to bash their opponent in argument?

I am at school. I am sitting in class like all of the other students. Except for one thing. I am sometimes only wearing a bra and panties. Or other times I am even naked. Everyone else doesn't seem to notice me or see anything out of the ordinary. They don't seem to care. But I am very embarrassed. I am mortified actually. What does it mean? I have this dream alot.
