For the past 4 nights I've had dreams about my neighbor whom up until recently I'd been very close to. They always happen in the same place, too, out in front of my front lawn. Once I wake up, each of the 4 nights, I got a nose bleed, which I find very unusual.The first dream was positive, but the other three protrayed my neighbor in a very negative manner. I feel like its my subconcious trying to tell me something, I dont know; does anyone have any insight?

I am 25, and considering a career in psychology. I don't know where to begin. What classes to take? What school can I attend? Are there on-line classes? How long will it take? Questions like that. Also, I'm from Texas.

Some 30 years ago I, Electrical Engineer with grad degrees in Comp Sci, worked with a group of Biologists, Archeologists, Paleontoligists, Geologists & MDs on a project. We'd meet at a local tavern on Friday after work & discuss subjects of interest..
One of these was when the grey wolf began the association with homo-sapien & if it was also associated with Neanderthal or Homo Erectus. Because the Grey Wolf is not found in Africa, we decided the association began in the Mid East & spread through out the World from there. This would put the association at about 50,000 yrs ago. The idea that the grey wolf/human association appeared among differing groups about 12-15,000 yrs ago was rejected as improbable statistically. However, all the current anthropology links I find tend to trumpet the more recent date. We rejected the Neanderthal association due to lack of supporting evidence, but the Wolf would have been the perfect hunting companion for a pure carnivore. Any links...

GRRR!!! I am too nice. I know it's not necessarily a bad thing, but it definitely has it's downs. Strange how being nice to other people can hurt yourself. Well, I'd like to know your opinion on this.
Please :O)

I spent the night with my ex-boyfriend because I had to be somewhere REALLY early and he lives really close to there. He made me my favorite dinner, brought up fun times we shared, and suddenly hugged me and told me it was good to see me again, it had been a long time ( it had only been a few months). He did a lot of small but special things for me, too.


He also apologized for being a jerk lately, too, when I didn't bring it up or act like anything mattered.

Do you think he wants to get back together?

I have seen this question http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AuQ6sYpStSPeNRc1PBaKo_Lsy6IX?qid=20070729062401AAmLq2D

and I answered it. As I thinked about, it made me truly sick...I get my last meal out.

How can I be still so affected by that years after ?
I know I should go to see a specialist but I am really afraid of the possible effect that a bad report from a psy can have on my career in the armed forces.

This is a sincere question, I am in my early thirties and have realised recently that I am going to die, in my twenties I think I didnt really acknowledge the fact but now the thought that I am definiately going to die and I dont know when or how totally spins me out. I spend far too much time thinking about it and obsessing and frankly im terrified. Does anyone else get spun out by this or do most people accept the inevitability?

i always have a lot of things running through my head, a lot of different things.. and then i always always feel confused, and i just don't know how to deal with some things. i get annoyed & lash out at everyone a lot, especially my family. I also have repeated mood swings.. i will get upset even at the littlest things, and then a little while later, i'll be really good. i also feel depressed & i don't enjoy a lot of things anymore. i just don't know, what could this mean? is there anything wrong with me?

For those of you who do not embrace your femininty...
why is that?
And I'm not judging...everyone has the right to be who they want to be.
I just can't imagine being a woman and not using femininty to your advantage.

When I see or meet people on TV or in reality who's personality attracts me I wanna be like them, dress like them, and act like them and over the years I forgot who I am. I would think it would be in the morning when I just wake up but I'll react to things differently and talk to people differently depending on who my latest hero or idol is.

yesterday, i dreamed that i was back in school. i recognised it but it looked really different, as if someone rearranged it.
i had just finished my P.E. lesson and me and my friends went to the changing room to get changed back into our uniform. but then i noticed that there was a window on the wall opposite from where i was standing.
the bad thing is that a second or so later, i saw someone looking in from the window - it was this boy in my other classes, but i had a bad experience with him once and then i felt really scared. i told my friends but they told me not to look at him. i couldn't help but stare back at him.
then the P.E. teacher came in and told us to hurry up coz she needs to teach the next class. then i took my coat and got changed behind that, but i could still see him staring at me. he seemed to be fixed upon me.
what does this mean?

serious answers only, please. thanks x

if you analyze a few-words-person you'll notice that he/she actually is not "few words" but doesn't want to share with others because have been growing introverted and doesn't want to socialize that easily, so that person have many words, the problem is that he/she needs extra-trusting for take them out,
That's why you see these people talk many-words with his/her most relative (parents,siblings,best friends).
So then a few-words-person is actually not few-words?

I grew up as a dyslexic in a family of quality spellers. So i was often taunted by them becasue of their superior skills.

As i grew up the problem went away (maybe i was just a slow developer) But the scar remains. Why do some people feel it necessary to taunt others for simple mistakes. People come on here to ask questions, not be put down for simple mistakes.

So why would someone deliberately look for errors and ignore the actual question?

Have you ever ask a really BAD misunderstood questrion on this site? I asked a question earlier about whether or not there were just some people who shouldn't be allowed to have sex.Just should have never lose their virginty. I was really just commenting on soceity, with the cheating and all the crazy things people do these day. I meant in a TOUGUE AND CHEEK kind of way, but everyone else didn't think so! what they read and what was trying to say was completely different! Needless to say I deleted the question! Has that ever happen to you? ever ask a question that got taken ther wrong way?

I really pissed some folks off!

What economic, political, social, psycological or other forces existed which made people capable of such unspeakable cruelty?

Do you think that there are people living today in the U.S. who would be capable of this sort of thing if they were in similar circumstances?
