I'm just wondering: is there any type of activity for which impulsiveness would be a cherished trait? ...I suppose gambling could be one- but what about when you loose? Any thoughts are appreciated

I've noticed that the better I get to know someone, the more their image changes in my mind depending on our relation and the person himself. What do you think?

I walk into my bedroom, go to the window to open it, and innertwined maggots are spilling out of it onto my bed, the wood beneath them is old and rotted, yet the rest of the window remains unchanged. Despite the fact that there are maggots at the head of my bed, I lay down and go to sleep anyways, laying closer to the foot of the bed. Having given up on the idea of opening the window I suppose.
I don't remember anything else between this and the next sequence.
I walk downstairs, go into my kitchen open my cupboard to get a glass. When I open the cupboard there is a single fly, crawling around in the glass... I stare at it for a bit, and close the cupboard.

This is all that I remember
However everytime I have this dream, I wake up at the foot of my bed, which I'm assuming just means I really thought there were maggots at the head of my bed during some point.

I've seen three therapists now, the last was a Psychologist. I'm seeing her currently but I'm thinking that no one can help me but me. I have social anxiety and I've talked about it and gotten what I felt out. But only I can make myself get out and do things, right? And until I do I'll be miserable, right? So should I just stop going to see her and start getting around more people and focused on things that I love? I'm taking guitar lessons monday.

I love going barefoot, and I sometimes walk barefoot down my street wearing only a T -- shirt and a pair of cutoff blue jeans . Would YOU be willing to put on a T -- shirt and a pair of cutoff blue jeans and walk barefooted down the street ? One rule I have is that everyone who sees you has to be able to see that you're barefooted . Would you walk down the street barefooted ? How many of you have actually done this ?

My mother was domineering and put me under psychological pressure to conform to her way of thinking, and would throw a wobbley (ie a nervous breakdown) if I did something she disapproved of. She's dead 8 years but I still hear her voice in my ear!

My boyfriend and I seem to get along ok except for one problem....I'm a non traditional adult college student who is very open minded and committed to learning. He is very intelligent and we can have very intellectual debates. The problem is that he wants to debate everything! He wants to take the opposing view and challenge the textbooks, challenge the professor....etc. It makes me feel like I'm being personally attacked when he dismisses my opinion or wants to prove me wrong. Why does he do this? Is it arrogance? Insecurity? He has a history of drug/alcohol abuse but is clean now and has been in recovery. He says its my problem because I'm disagreeing with him. He doesn't acknowledge my feelings and just tells me that I'm wrong. I'm a peacemaker and I'm not concerned with "winning" a debate. I just want to be respected for my opinion. What's going on here?

i'm in seventh grade and am studying the holocaust in my language arts class. i find the unit interesting, however seeing the pictures of the extremely skinny people and their shaved heads and things and seeing the dead bodies really takes a toll on me. i started this unit a week ago in school and haven't gotten a very good night's sleep since then. anyone have any suggestions on how i can cope with this?

I am having a late mid-life crisis! I have been doing a lot of thinking lately about my life, where I have been and where I am going! To put it kindly; "I am not satisfied!" I am a 50 y/o male; assuming that I will live to age 75, I can say that 66% of my life is over unfortunately I have accomplished only 25% of my life goals! this makes for very bad math! I would like to get a general picture of where I stand compare to who ever reads this question: What percent of your life is over? and What percent of your life Goals have you accomplished?

National Geographic reports that 66% of Americans (and like 20%) of Europeans think evolution is only one of competing theories that explain life on earth. Even serious priests, rabbis, ministers, and imams agree -- evolution is scientific fact supported by evidence. Where is the evidence of Noah's Ark?
