i'm a reasonably attractive (not being vain) and nice person and i am certainly not paranoid but people tend to stare at me a lot, sort of like reverse paranoia, sometimes i dress high-class or talk about arty things to people and it's like they seem to be jealous or something, but they shouldn't be.

sounds confusing doesn't it??

My mother passed back in October and I am having a hard time getting passed her death. I am almost obsessed with it, you could say. My sister refuses to talk about the day she died. She doesn't want to think about it she says. Well, it's all I can think about. I made a difficult choice. Now i'm not sure if it was the right one. That day plagues my dreams, my every waking moment, and is now beginning to affect my relationship with her and my little brothers. I feel as though I stole my mother from them when all I wanted to do was ease her pain. I feel guilty. Should I? The longer I go on without talking to my sister, the more I feel like I am drowning in my uncertainity. How do I move on from this? Sometimes I feel like this was one of the most defining moments in my life, more so than the birth of my daughters. In that one moment, I became a different person. All I can remember is how she looked when she died, not how she looked when she laughed, how she smelled, the good things. Why?

With most phobias part of the process is to confront the origin or source of your fear. When one thinks too much about the inevitable death and makes themself nauseous, what could psychological help possibly do to help deter these thoughts?

How can one overcome these thoughts, especially when (hopefully) it is something that probably will not occur for a long time?

I ask this hear because as an atheist I have no belief in an afterlife, so there is no comfort there either.

I laugh and laugh at things that arent too funny and lose my breath from laughing so hard when I do!? People at school ask me if im on crack(laughing while asking because I move my whole body when I laugh)and I say no. I cant help it!and I also am clueless on some things!Like today I brought my cell to school and carried it around in my purse and today my dad called me during math class(he forgot I had it)and I started dancing to the ring tone(thinking that it was my teachers. thats what the whole class does) and in front of everybody I said oh thats my phone and I got in trouble and a little embarressed! and I laughed really hard then. also at gym today we were plaing soccor and there was a volleyball net at the side of the gym and the ball got stuck in the net and a girl started kicking it trying to get it out and her foot got stuck in it and she fell on her face!And I laughed so hard I fell down!! nobody reallytakes me serious anymore.what should I do?is there something wrong withme

Imagine the perspective I could give psychiatry and psychology on the human mind as it obviously has been created by the past.

Is there anyone else so sick of their job that it actually makes them physically ill? Or is it just me? If you are one of these people, how do you cope? What helps you to go back there every day, besides the paycheck.

As a business person who provides products and service, I am regularly amazed, frustrated and ultimately disenchanted by how many potential and actual customers of mine haven't a clue as to how to calculate an intelligent/knowledgeable purchase or repair. It seems as though it is far too frequently about saving an immediate dime rather than determining the best overall or longterm cost of things. Any ideas? I cannot understand this line of reasoning and believe me, I have tried.

All answers are welcomed and encouraged so please share your thoughts. I am just curious if others see what I see. I will share my observations if that is allowed here. (I am not sure of the protocol.) If not, could someone please let me know.
