Somehow, I feel good and bad at the same time. It's hard to explain. I feel like there are two of me, instead of having a moral scale where the balance of good and evil is split 50/50, it's somehow doubled so each side is like 100/100. I'm often a nice person, but sometimes I'll have these wild mood swings where I'll actually scream or get physical. One time, I hissed at someone and tried to bite them. I'd say I was insane, but crazy people don't know they're crazy. My conscience has been thrown way out of wack. Instead of the Angel and Demon telling me what to do, they argue with eachother and I'm just stuck there in the middle, watching as the kill eachother. I'm fascinated by the thought of being a bad ***, but I also love the idea of being a good kid. Aren't these signs that I might develop...I dunno, a split personality? Mental ilness runs in my family and at night I feel myself being torn into different directions. Someone help me out here.

How old is "too old" Do we really want to still be alive at 85 or 90 years? When does life stop having purpose and meaning for us?

If it was to improve a brain function, or to repair some minor brain damage, but with a 5% risk of failure and further brain damage, would you accept this risk?

I'll be 47 at the end of the year - FOURTY SEVEN!!! and am feeling pretty depressed about it. Can I still be sexy at this ancient age, can I still attract members of the opposite sex? (I'm female by the way). I've really got the blues about this so I need words of encouragement please.

I've noticed that all my friends are all younger than me. Is there some psychological explanation for this? As far as I can remember I have always had friends that were younger than me and never any older than me. I'd really like to know why, there's nothing bad about it, I'm just curious. Here's some info that might shed some light on it:
-I'm an 18 year old guy
-I'm friends with people as young as 10
-I would never EVER do anything that would hurt the young ones
-I'm the oldest in my family
-I have a completely broken relationship with my own siblings (I can actually say that i hate them)
-I'm many people's "older brother"
If anybody can help me shed some light on this I would really appreciate that. If you have any further things that you'd need to know just say so and I'll post additional details. I'd prefer info from real psychologists but if anybody else knows something about this, please do share.
Thanks!!!

Has anyone used/seen Marcus Buckingham's method of personal development? He's a personal motivator from UK.?

I have just watched him on PBS. He places emphasis on embracing one's strengths versus emphasizing time on one's weaknesses. He sounds pretty good. And PBS says that he's been speaking at top corporations. He doesn't say that weaknesses should be ignored, but strengths are what people should focus on. He also has founded the: Pernell School which again, places emphasis on children's strengths versus weaknesses and working their lives via this method. Any takers on this method?

I've been having similar dreams this last past week. In the dreams, there is a lot of fighting going on. I'm usually fighting the opposite sex. I'm usually fighting a male whom In reality, I'm not familiar with. In the dream, theres a lot of trickery going on where I set up tricks to harm him and see blood. In the dream, he is harming me but I don't feel pain. I run when I see danger coming my way but when I am stricken, I don't feel the pain. I just get up and go back after the person. When I awake, it's mainly because my conscious mind realizes that the dream is ridiculous and begin to wonder why the dreams keep coming back the same but with different plots and settings. I am not upset when I awake.

I am not in a relationship with anyone. I've never been in a violent relationship. I have not seen or watched movies for over 20 days nor have I watched television for that same period of time. I am not a violent person at all. Why do I keep having those dreams?

Q.
