I am a student of BCS and used to teach computer programming, designing and database development. I could speak frankly without any hesitation. Now I don't know what happened to me. I suddenly lost my confidence to speak in front of people. My heart sinks down and it begins to beat rapidly and my tongue stuck. All this is driving me crazy. Please explain why it happens and how to prevent it. bcoz it will destroy all my hopes for a future career.

Anyone ever invite a hypnotist to perform at a house party? I'm curious about what happens. I've heard it's hilarious.

My quest online lately has been to find out information about myself on schizoids in general as I have indirectly related problems due to it. I found out my wife is a cutter. I have a REALLY hard time comforting her because in my mind if its bad for you dont do it. Kinda simple. But people that perform self injury from what I gather do it as a way of release, like a big stupid jock punching a hole in the wall :) But anyway, she has been doing it since she was a kid and I try to comfort her but I really come off insincere.....partly because I am, I can say whatever I want, she know s how I think. So....I sent her to a therapist/psychologist. She went for a month or two got meds seemed to be feeling and doing better. Then the asshole stopped returning her calls....I hate greedy people, he didnt like her or she wasnt needy enough but he cut her off and now she does not have meds again. She asks me for comfort and such....which on my end is really hard to do...IDEAS??

By principle I mean something along the lines of "gratitude" or "helping others"....but feel free to include stuff like "getting my mind off things by listening to music", "walking in the park to feel connected to my spiritual side"
etc.
I'm trying to help some folks and have hit the point of "writers block"
Thanks for any inspiration
Be well

A Woman's Poem


He didn't like the casserole
And he didn't like my cake.
He said my biscuits were too hard...
Not like his mother used to make.
I didn't perk the coffee right
He didn't like the stew,
I didn't mend his socks
The way his mother used to do.
I pondered for an answer
I was looking for a clue.
Then I turned around and smacked him on the head...



Like his mother used to do.

I'm just curious, because some how I hate the idea of sex, I wish sex could be simple as sneezing or coughing, so people won't make a big deal out of it.

In my daughter's best friend's family the Grandpa committed suicide Thursday, but this brings the subject up in our household also (kids talk). My mother is diagnosed with a terminal cancer and it won't be long until I have to address this directly with my daughter. She is 6 years old. Recommendations?

In the United States or in California alone, how many people become millionaires anually as a result of winning the lottery? Obviously, I can extrapolate based on the number of drawings, but I'd love it if there was a citable reference for an exact number.

After I just stated for it to not be taken seriously, it was. I know that there are many women that aren't like this, but some are so it was just a look at a bunch contradictions. I know a lot of women aren't like that. chill people. Just as I said, I would post something for the ladies. I think you will like it, it is pretty funny. Here it is:

One day my housework-challenged husband decided to wash his sweatshirt.

Seconds after he stepped into the laundry room, he shouted to me, "What setting do I use on the washing machine?"

"It depends," I replied. "What does it say on your shirt?" He yelled back, "University of North Carolina."

And they say blondes are dumb...

Do you feel sympathy toward men as they are trapped in a world where they feel that they cannot express themselves emotionally to one another and instead feel that they must hide behind a mask of 'toughness'?

in the first one, i'm in a Wendy's restaurant parking lot w/my mom, and a beautiful white tailed buck comes running by us. my mom subdues it by cutting off one of its antlers, and she tells me to slit it's throat if i want to be a hunter, that it's the humane thing to do. the deer is looking at me w/fear in its eyes, panting heavily.i slit its throat, and it dies. when i look back, my mom is gone, and the deer is nothing but decaying guts. in the second dream, i'm at my grandma's house, and we're outside. there are deer grazing across the creek from us. i take aim and shoot one, but it just hits a glancing blow. i never can get across the creek to get it, try as i might, bc trees are in the way on the other side. what do these dreams mean?

A long time ago, my uncle got a woman pregnant. He wanted the child and was more than willing to support the child.

She went ahead and aborted, against his wishes. My mother says that to this day my uncle (her brother) is a grieving father.

One of my most crippling and shameful flaws is jealousy. It's an evil feeling, it's frightfully close to how hatred feels like, it tortures me, and yet there doesn't seem to be a remedy. The triggers of my jealousy are mainly limited to two things... having a friend I love who has a BEST friend who isn't me, and someone whose artistic talent is better than mine. I've tried numerous things, including telling myself that the having isn't nearly so fine as the wanting, and that I need to learn how to be happy with whatever blessings I have right now. But again... it all fades, and I am left once again with these burning possessive desires that consume my thoughts and even my heart.

I'd love to be free of this, and be a proper, grateful and humble person. My question is this... is there a way? A cure?
