Does anyone feel that if everyone communicated with that kid the day of the shooting in a positive way, and complemented his shirt, or his shoes (even if it wasn't a nice pair of shoes or shirt) I just think instead of progressing we're taking 2 steps backwards...we're so focused on our own lives, we take liitle effort to acknowledge those around it. Just by reading the news, i can tell that kid went down the wrong path, because he was always alone....i dont think he chose to be alone, he was definitely depressed....to make someone recognise him, they labelled him the "question mark kid"....he wanted to be noticed, instead of being the quiet kid that no-body knows....so i guess he goes down a history, not in the least positive way

I look like a cross between Brad Pitt and Leonardo di Caprio. No matter where I go women stare, and some slip me their phone number. How can a guy politely indicate that he's not interested, without causing damage to the self-image of these beautiful girls? Why can't women control themselves anymore?

Are all of them just trolls trying to push buttons for attention? Is there any legitimate reason to be rude and verbally abusive to someone sincerely looking for help or advice? What do see as motivating such behavior?

(Disclaimer: I am not whining and complaining. I am looking for thoughtful insight into this issue)

I am a university of Chicago Student. A group of us are developing a self-help tool (used by a website) to treat anxiety disorder. Our goal is to provide a cheap and medication free alternative (one of our founders has AD). Please help by taking this 5 minute survey (5 minutes tops I swear!) I'd really appreciate it! This product will eventually help this whole community.

During the 1930's FDR ended the so-called "Gold Standard." Anyway, would the ending of the gold standard be a liberal or conservative action?

Is is horrible to feel a sense of sadness for him as well. I KNOW what happened was horrible and noone deserves to have there life taken by anyone. But do you think that this gunman was tortured on the inside that made him want to do this, he also took his own life. I have been reading some articles about him online and many say he was "wierd, quiet," many kind of probably never made him feel welcomed. Also, he may of had a bad childhood. Who know....but I can't help but feel for sad for him as well as the others that have lost their lives. Something was lacking in him to make him feel this way, and I know there is no excuse for what he did.

Why does it seem like EVERYONE numbs themselves in some way?

Some do so through drinking, doing drugs, overeating, starving themselves, smoking, etc.

What other ways do people numb themselves?

And what makes one person choose drinking, and another choose overeating?

Please and thank you for your opinions =]

We live in a very materialistic, individualistic and superficial society. A society that only promotes individualistic self-indulgence. A society that promotes and glorify "power and affluence". A society were those who don't pursue these extravagants "tastes" are consider "losers". Such society promotes alienated individuals. And some of them grew with an intense, not all, hatred to themselves and others. What do you think?
P.D.: I am not trying to "justified" what this crazy guy did in that Virginia college. But I can understand him.

Whenever people try to get close to me, I push them away. I feel like I most push them away so they don't have a chance to push me away... how could such a maladaptive behavioral pattern develop? What could have possibly went wrong in my life to cause me to adopt this pattern?

I have been suffering with depression for a while now and am on anti-depressants that have been helping, to the point were my doctor thinks i am ready to have them reduced.

My problem is, for years i have been interested in reading about serial killers and finding out why they do the things they do. I am reading a book at the moment all about the American serial killer Richard Ramirez, and i have realised that i am getting too into this book, as i have found myself wishing i was one of his victims.

I now cant get the thought out my head and its scaring me. I am on a waiting list to see a counsellor but i have been told it wont be for at least another 4 months. I dont think i can go on like this and i cannot afford to see someone privately. HELP!

make a comment on you and your personal life, when they havent got a clue? they dont no me or who iam, so what the hell makes them think they can pass comment or judgement bout your life? when their opinion or point of view is not wanted.
i hate those types of people.
how do you deal with them, without the urge of wantin to rip their head off?
dont get me wrong the majority of answers are great, but it the few ' negative' comments that set my teeth on edge
