I seriously don't know what to do with myself anymore. It gets worst everyday. I'm so tired of my life. I'm tired of crying every night. I've been doing it for too long. I feel like I'm not worth anything at all. I'm not close with my family. they are like strangers to me. I don't feel comfortable getting close with others because I don't trust them. I always feel so alone and I have a hard time interacting with others. I'm not even like a normal quiet person because at least they have personality when they do talk but me on the other hand I'm just plain weird. I don't fit in anymore and for those who seem to like me I cannot understand why. I feel so unworthy in the eyes of others. I've tried counseling and it doesn't work. I've tried talking with others but it just gets worst everyday. Some days I'm able to go through it and other days I just go down the drain. I don't know what's wrong with me. I feel like they only way that the pain would end is if I kill myself.

...I don't know how to categorize this question. It is very delicate, and well, here goes.....When a full-term pregnant woman dies, is the baby taken from her body before burial? Thanks.

The reason, plainly, that most men in the U.S. will say that breasts are "private parts" or "sexual" is because breasts have been made into commodities. Capitalism likes it this way, of course. Men pay to see "titties," and women pay to have "sexier" "titties."
Can you envision a United States in which women can go top-free without being considered lewd or offensive?

Many people fear death, I fear death. The question is why. We all know that life is terminal. We have no control over when and how we die. Is it a fear of leaving our loved ones behind or just pure survival instinct? Maybe selfishness? I would like to hear peoples views on this...

I have been dealing with some pretty intense depression now for a while ever since a unwanted divorce. I pretty sure I had many of the symptoms before the divorce as well just not as intense. Thoughts of suicide, uninterested in EVERYTHING, lack of concentration, social isolation...etc. I have been going counceling for about 9 months and things don't seem to be getting better. I finally made an appointment with a psychiatrist this week and I know its going to come down to pills. Has anyone had their life drastically changed from anti depressants? Good, bad? Please share you story. I need some encouragement. Thanks.

I have heard this statistic but I can't find any support for it. If so, what do you think is wrong with this country? Is the rate of sexual molestation higher in other countries? How many of these do you think are done by family members and why?

ok, when i tell you this, dont tell me to see a theripest cause i cant.... but anyway. starting a few months ago i had this though in my head. the though was "what if im really not alive? that my entire life is just like a dream or a figment of someones imagnation?" whenever i dont think about it i feel fine and normal. but when the thought enters my head (which is almost all the time) i feel like my whole life, everything, is just not real. and i feel like im not real. but when i try not to think about it cause when i dont i feel fine. but i always do and when ever that thought is in my head, im sooooo miserable because i feel like me, my friends, the, everything is just not real. i cant talk to any one cause i tried telling some people but they just dont under stand, u guys prolly dont understand fully, but i was wondering if anyone had any advice to make me not think about it, or any other advice?
I asked this question before, and i got some pretty good advice. but nothing seems

I dream a lot, and I often have very intense dreams. Sometimes I remember very well the overall feeling behind the dream and some details, but I almost never have a dream that is like a story--the dream as a whole just doesn't make any sense. When my husband tells me his dreams, it sounds like he's reading a piece from Life! magazine or something. But to give an example, last night I dreamed that I went with Woodrow Wilson to see a Tracy Chapman concert. In the dream, I thought WW was falling in love with Tracy Chapman when he was actually falling in love with me. There was an amphibious rabbit living in a fishtank that was somehow involved too, but I really couldn't tell you how. I have no particular strong interest in Woodrow Wilson, Tracy Chapman, or rabbits, and it probably sounds like I'm trying to make up a particularly silly dream, but I'm not--that's what I dreamed! I'd just like some insight into how the unconscious mind comes up with such weird stuff.

I'm shy.

I go to a small church (around 50 people) and there are a lot of people there, of all ages but I don't seem to want to talk to anyone. Nothing beyond the canned reply to "how are you."

When I go to my college classes, I don't say much beyond what's required. All I do is answer simple but common questions "Do you know what time it is." and that's pretty much my social life. Hence I have no friends.

Now I started this question by stating that I was shy, but I'm beginning to wonder if it's more than that. I can summon the courage to say something, if i had anything interesting to say. But I got nothing.

This isn't how I want to be. I'd like to make some friendships. When I see people hanging out together, I can't help but envy them, hoping to one day be able to speak and "open up." But alas, I can't.

I keep dreaming of being in a hurry gathering things that belong to me, and I would keep forgeting where I put this item or that, or I would drop something or another. I really get bugged and sometimes even cry in the dream not wantign to lose any of my things. It sometimes happens with my brothers I keep gathering them to protect them from something and they keep getting lost.

I am very serious about this question; and would appreciate some helpful advice.
I have never liked conflict or problems (perhaps childhood issues of constant arguments/disagreements).
When something goes bad, I cry and get discouraged.
I have not written a serious question in a long time.
Waiting for things to get better, when I want things to be better, is making me very down. I have been through alot in my life; and just want peace! I go out of my way to try to make others around me happy too; yet, when GROWN people are unreasonable, I fall apart. What can I do to help my emotional state of mind?

I know someone that is very stubborn and set in her ways. When she gets agitated, everyone must suffer! She goes on and on; and won't let up!
How can I keep my peace-of-mind around her and try to calm the situations down without making them worse?
I need some serious advice!
and, Thank You in advance!

I don't want to get with my mother or sister, or brother or anything?
But, socially, why is it wrong?
Of course it messes up the gene pool, but should that alone prevent you from being in love with your sister?
Doesn't the idea of it being wrong come from religion or social rules that have just come about over time?
If you don't have those religious beliefs or value society's judgment call would there be anything wrong with it?
The Egyptians practiced it, as well as many other royals.
What's your opinion?

Even our features have a limited set of characteristics apparently.

So what makes you so different and special then, eh?

Fancy tattoos? Your wacky, far out sense of humour?

I'll bet there's loads of people out there just like you, they probably even have your haircut.

When you come to a situation...where your mind (Brain) says one thing to do , but then right at that moment your heart says exactly opposite to it.... to do.
What will you do and whom will you listen.... Brain or the Heart and WHY ?
