Hi, my cousin wanted me to ask here about this particular dream she had a while ago..

Well, it's just this she told me, she was embraced by a large snake, from her neck down to her stomach. And the snake attached to her body and was trying to strangle her.

What could this mean?

my e count is about 15. i haven't dropped for 2 months+
i don't feen for it but sometimes(rarely) i miss it. yet i almost forget how good it feels. i want to be there again when i listen to techno music. i never was gone to the point where i'm unconscious.. i'm always conscious when i took it and i haven't really had a come down at all. the worst is feeling blank..
my personality and opinion has stayed almost the same but i feel different towards a lota stuff. i still feel like myself but feel emotionless and careless sometimes. i used to be those people who cared for every little thing was an alcoholic. was very pessimestic and now i really feel like just whatevers. although i still do care a lot for certain stuff. oh yeah and i'm not an alcoholic like i used to be anymore.


am i just tired/on the downers side or does 15 pills even make a difference for who i am today?

i want to drop again but don't wanna **** up

I WISH I could so bad, it would be so comforting to me to think I wont be gone forever or that I can see my family and friends again after they are gone, but I just can't it just seems so unrealistic to me. I would love to feel that security and not fear death but I cannot pretend to believe in it nor can I be convinced. Do any of you feel this way?

I am an attractive woman working in a professional environment..but I find sometimes, when I have a meeting with a male clients & colleagues, they sometimes ignore me. I am well-spoken and contribute to the meeting in an intelligent way so I don't understand. Example - I ask the client a question myself and then he turns round and answers my male colleague! It was me who asked the question…why not look at me and answer to me! Why is this?

Ok so I'm the quiet type and I always show the happy quiet attitude when I'm among others. I only show my real self to my family and my closest friends (Which arn't that many). I always think to my self how some people can talk so socialy as if it comes to them so naturally.

The thing is though I'm hoping to do a job that involves talking to people a lot and I'm currently doing my studies accordingly.

I am so depressed when I think about whether I can get to my dream job by being the quiet person I am, when the job involves talking alot.

SO where should I start changing, how and what should I change?

PS No therapy or medication pls because I've tried them and no it didnt work so suggest some thing else

Thanks

was waiting for a friend. an old highschool-classmate came up to me & we got on the bus together (i didn't realize it until it was too late). a policeman fined me for travelling without a ticket. weirdly enough he let me get off at the bus stop close to my house. i checked for the fine, but i had this huge bag full of clothes, so i decided to go home& check there. i wanted to cross the street but a car was coming. at the same time a neighbour of mine which i hadn't seen for a long time was crossing the street, so i crossed with her, almost getting hit by the car. then a puppy barked at her, but when i came close he was pouting& crying. when i got home i saw the fine was in the name of someone else & there were lots of other fining-tickets there(my mom wouldn't believe me). i read the name out loud& 3 ppl were blocking my door. a short mean-looking man appeared and tried to steal my food. his eyes got terrofying (diabolic) when i said "God bless you". i started praying& i woke up scared

"If a miracle happen when you're sleeping, you wake up and you find out every of your problem had been solved. What will you think? And from what you realize that the miracle happened?"

This is a story based on solution-focus counselling.
In your opinion, how this counselling skill help at-risk adolescent (mainly for those who at-risk in dropout from school)?

Here in Y!A I've noticed we tend to stick to the categories we feel most comfortable with (ex. for some it's Psychology or Philosophy and for others it's Polls & Surveys).

I've taken to answering overlooked or neglected questions to try to help others (sometimes in subjects I was previously unfamiliar with). I'm also learning about the Discovery section of Y!A. Hopefully this is benefitting me as well as others.

I'm curious how the rest of you manage to get yourselves out of your "comfort zones". Thanks in advance.

S What do people usually major in after they get their BA in psychology, and dont intend on going to grad school
The thing is I know I'm very interested in psychology, and I want to make that the foundation of my education. My dream is to own my own restaurant one day. Im a fab cook. But in case that doesn't work out I wanted to have a degree as a back up plan. Like others I dont want to spend 8 years and more trying to obtain a pHd in Psy. Is it common for people to get a BA in Psyc while majoring in something else? Please share your personal exp if possible. Thank

I'm a stay at home mom and take care of my 2 yr. old daughter, do my home chores like keep the place clean, do laundry, and prepare home made meals. Every time I meet a new family member from my husbands side, they ask what I do. I tell them I'm a stay at home mom, and their response is always the same and say stuff like "Oh, but you are looking for a job right"? I never respond because i don't want to respond with something insulting. They say it like I'm a lazy person that just stays at home and watches soaps and eat bonbons all day, which is so far from the truth. I hardly have time to see TV. and I think I'm doing a pretty darn good job at raising my daughter. She is 2yrs and already counts 1 to 20 in english and 1 to 10 in spanish. She knows her alphabet, 7 colors and 5 shapes. I'm so proud of our little family and my husband is awsome, he doesn't demand anything from me and even helps me around the house at times, he tells me my job is harder than his. That makes me feel good.

After World War I, defeated Germany saw its money become worthless. At one point, a person needed to a wheelbarrow to carry all the currency required to purchase a single loaf of bread. In the early 1990s, the German government refused to lower the relatively high interest rate it paid to depositors. This policy negatively affected the economies of other nations in Europe and elsewhere, and many governments were very angry with the Germans. Nevertheless, the Germans continued the policy to protect themselves from the possibility of...

I was told the answer was Runaway Inflation. I can't seem to understand this answer, though. From the question, it seems inflation was already an issue if a person had to gather large amounts of money to buy bread. Why would high interest rates protect them from inflation? Isn't this spreading more money into the economy? And why was it negatively affecting the economy of other nations?

My husband has made wild accusations of me in the recent past, as well as threats of violence, but when I talk to him about them, he says it never happened and I must be nuts or that it was me who did that and not him, so I must have a mental problem (which I do not, and I have not imagined anything. I am entirely sane, I assure you). In my current situation, he got authorities involved with insane claims of things I never did. When I talked to him without the authorities around, he told me I imagined everything. Has anyone ever experienced this? Is that technically mental abuse? How can I prove my innocence and/or prove I'm being mentally abused if it's all just my word against his with no proof? I really need help with this...it's urgent at the moment.
