I was very depressed and even somewaht suicidal when I posted initially 2 weeks ago, This forum deals with sleep disorders and I don't want to leave as I am learning more in 2 weeks than in the previous 15 years and see real hope for an assortment of related ills. I started a thread among thousands on sharing alternative treatments for various sleep disorders and it immediately got attacked by people who don't believe in alternative health

When I defended my view, it apparently exacerbated their dislike and about 5 people are being rude and started criticising my intelligence, spelling, character traits, mental health, and tons of things in a very cruel and mean way, I stuck up for myself and now they seem madder than ever in their vigilence to attack me.

I eventually told them I was very vulnerable, dealing with a lot of personal problems, crying from their posts,. and essentially begging them to stop and if they didn't
believe in natural health to please go to any of the thousands of other threads and stop harassing me or go to the 1999 other threads that don't discuss this topic if it bothers them. A few are only posting on my thread and one even is personal messaging his hateful talk.

I would like advice on what is behind this, how to get it too stop and how to get the thread back on topic. Also how to help myself not respond which I am attempting to do but it's hard and not let it get to me. I have learned more in 2 weeks on this website than in 15 years and my doctors and for the first time I feel real ho[pe I may get some of these disorders that have ruined my life for about 25 years so I don't want to leave. I feel like they are trying to chase me away and upset me though they turn it around and say they weren't bashing just before they bash or say essentially leave if you don't like it--we will continue.

Advice badly needed as it is REALLY starting to get me down.
what is with people who kick people when they are already down?

There are numerous movies and shows from several years ago in which women are spanked. Yes, normally they have done something bad, but to have men spank them just seems degrading. It's like saying they are simply little children, and it makes it seem perfectly okay for men to spank them.

I am a 7th grade teacher. My class has serious problems with each other. They don't know how to get along. All they do is critize one another. They're a small group of 13 but have no companionship. What activity can I have them do so they learn to solve problems with each other and learn to depend and respect one another?

Personally I think one should forgive but not forget. What are your thoughts ? Is it better to forget our past or to remember it ?

I have three boys - two of whom understand and practice generosity and one who is and has seemingly always been somewhat of a curmudgeon. If we give to poor folks at Christmas he's mad that we spent out time and money giving to them. To his mind - what did they do to deserve generosity? We have tried many different approaches to strengthening the empathy and generosity - all to little avail. Any other parents been down this road? We keep expecting the selfish phase to pass but it has not. He is an outstanding student, athlete (for his age) and enjoyes a circle of friends. But he disdains the poor or needy.

Im having this dream that has to do with my brothers friend. I had a crush on him when I lived back home and this was in my early teen years, Im now 21, and dont think of him really. He lived down the road from us where the dream always occurs. He is in the army now. My first dream was that his house caught on on fire and he died in the fire. I dont remember much of the dream cuz this was 2 yrs. ago, but then dream after dream after dream of the dream..But it wasnt the same dream..It was like the story kept continuing, I had a dream 2 nights ago about the same dream. This time I was in the same place as I was in all my others (my old house) and he walks up to me (he was a spirit), and later on I tell someone that I saw him and talked to him, they said I couldnt have because he died in a fire a couple years back.
I am wondering why I have dreams that are all about this one dream. Im afraid it will come true. Can anyone intrepet? Ive had about 4 dreams in 2 yrs, exact same story.

Why have gas prices raised so much in the past few days when the cost of oil per barrel has gone down? Is there a true need for the increase or is it pure greed? Anyone know any good sites that will tell me more information about this?

Please, serious responses only. The question asked of us is complicated but it comes down to this. Guys, if you knew 100% that you WOULD NOT get caught, would you be more likely to sexually assault a female acquaintence? It sounds bad, I know, and most people are going to respond saying Me? No! Never! But please try and think of it in the big picture and what the question is asking. Thanks in advance.
