For instance, it never fails. When ever I'm in a group particularly females, they tend to leave me out of things. Like today, the group goes to a friend's house and I am not there. We come back together and we're fine...Anyway what was suggested was a slumber party for tonight, the group say they are not going and I want to go but it doesn't happen. So I'm really trying really hard not to think that they are purposely leaving me out but actions like this tell me they are. I could voice it out and have voiced it but they will use a pity excuse to say "we're not leaving you out you're just busy". So what can I honestly do. My answer is to just leave the group and do my own thing because basically all my life groups they I've been in do this. But also when I am in another group or have distanced myself from that group they want to include me in things. So how can I deal with this constructively and not becomne a recluse or better yet just have associates and no friends?

I think i hav schiophrenia, and i need to type this fast cuz i keep forgetting wat i want to say. so...im gona put dots to show when i cant remember wat i say, so u guys can kno how i thhnk............1 dot is for every second......but i guess typin the dots every second would kinda MAKE me forget what im saying so im gona stop now.since i wud hav to concentrate on doing that.

there were no PSychiatric doctors in biblical times, so is it not possible that these people who believe they recieved messages from god,actually had schizophrenia? people with schizopjhrenia nowadays feel as though they sometimes recieve messages from god, i hav had such an experience.. so which is it, were the prophets of biblical times schizophrenic, or are people nowadays simply recieving messages from a higher source..my personal messages, i hav gotten from even TV. and these messages sumtimes make me extremely happy,sumthing that doesnt usually happen.because they were about how humans can liv in peace...

There are 6.6 Billion people on the earth and that is increasing by about 250,000 people a day. How many people can the earth feed, and how many can it hold comfortably.

I find feminism an interesting topic but I don't understand much about it, so I would like to know more about it, but I want to know if it bothers women when men ask or answer questions on here? And I mean decent questions/answers, not like the ridiculous ones from people with no life.

Alright, I remember when I was in about grade 6, I went over to this family's house with my family. Before I go on explaining what I did there, I'd like to point out some attributes about my character which I feel might be related to this question I am about to ask. For as long as I know, I've feared my father a lot. He "was" rather abusive until I grew older. Anyways, I could never saw my opinion, afraid that my father might get mad. I could never do what I wanted...I felt caged because of him! And so it kind of affected my social life, I always feared people's responses when I was honest, almsot feared what they would think of my if I did this or that.
Now, here's this matter I've been wondering about...and have become so baffled about. So, on that day when I went to that family's house, I wandered into a room and so a ring (A wedding ring, as I found out later on) resting on the dressing table. I don't, but something drove me to take that ring, not because I wanted it...but I just

I heard that they found eveidence on native americans that probably lived 40,000 years ago or possibly more in the americas with fossilized footprints. do you guys think its true? why do you or not think its true? please no stupid ignorant responses, if i wanted ignorance i would just ask mel gibson what he thinks about jews. Most people are also part native american also and dont even know it or care much about it. Does that mean there some kind of half sub specie or something? does that mean ima half sub specie? I thought the the whole world was just one specie. Now i hear its possible that native americans are probably a sub species of of the the other modern humans.

Symptoms of schizophrenia:

Delusions: false ideas that a person has about him or herself or surroundings (such as receiving special messages from the TV or radio, having unusual powers that no one else has, or being singled out for persecution)

I have actually had experiences like this, ive had phases where i feel i hav psychic powers, and that people are always using me because im so kind...

Hallucinations: sensations that are heard, seen, smelled, or felt that a person experiences while others do not. The most common hallucination is auditory – hearing voices talking negatively about the person or sometimes giving commands for dangerous behavior; however, not everyone with schizophrenia hears voices

I cant sleep because as soon as i close my eyes, i imagine there is a demon inside of me saying "im gona get u now boy" . i KNOW that this cant be real, but the FEELINGS i have are still there.

I find that straight women put too much emphasis on sex, and are more "reserved" when it comes to sex. I find that Bisexual and Lesbian women are more free and knowledgeable when it comes to having sex.

If the man wants to have some fun, and the woman (bisexual and sometimes lesbian) likes him, she wouldn't mind having sex/fun (as long as it is proper protected sex). If this woman was straight, she will tend to think too much like "oh! is he a good person? will he make a good boyfriend? what will my friends think if I get it on with him?" etc.

What do you think?

Lately I have been soul searching and I am looking for advice about my life. I was told I have a " personality disorder " of the Narcissistic type. Ive been wondering if thats true and what caused it. I have had a lot of trauma in my life but I sincerely do not feel Im in PTSD about it. I had cancer but Jesus healed me. I lost three deeply loved ones in the past yr or so but I know where they are in the arms of Jesus. I was badly injured in Jerusalem but so were many others. There was lots of panic all around and others were hurt much worse than me..I got some scars but I feel I am fine. I have had short memory lapses but quickly recover them. Some times I feel in shock momentarily because of all this trauma but I pray and it goes away. I do admit that today I was talking to a friend about some of this and I had a moment of this rushing overwhelming despair try to wash over me but I resisted and prayed and I was fine. I am wondering if Im oblivious or fine. Please advise
