So I had a dream that I was in a galaxy in a universe, and I looked down and there was a whole other complete galaxy below. It was telling me to go into the depths of me and that there was soo much more to explore underneath. That's what it like..said. What do you think it means??

Omg, I am so scared. I am only 13 and I believe in ghosts. I just turned 13. Anyways at night I always here some type of beeping and I look to see whats beeping and there is nothing beeping. I usually hear small knocks on my door from like a child but nobody be there. Footsteps are heard at night walking through the hall. Sometimes when I face my dolls to the wall and when I turn around they facing me again. I can swore my baby alive winked today. I BELIEVE IN GHOSTS!! My TV mutes by itself. Some of my stuff falls by itself. Wind comes from my window even when its closed. My friend thinks her Nintendo Ds was pulled out of her pockets by somebody. My stuff disappears and I usually hear noises. Water is heard dripping at night in the kitchen and I feel like I am being watched every second. I was told somebody died in my house. Do I have a ghost?!What should I do?!13 yr old panic! My life...is.....at......danger!

I seem to be upset a lot of the time. There's nothing going on with my family, I'm actually really happy with my family, I'm just upset when I'm at school and around a lot of people. I'm 14 years old and I have no friends, I used to have one best friend, but she started treating me like dirt in November, so that really brought down my self esteem because I remember how much more bright things used to be when I had her as a friend, I was more positive and happy, but now I just feel upset over little things. I'm starting to get anxious over little things (I already know that I have a bit of social anxiety) and sometimes I'll start thinking of anything random, but then I'll get this weird, sudden feeling that everyone hates me. I don't want to sound selfish, but sometimes I wonder why I have to be like this. I'm not even a mean person. I've always been quiet and friendly to all people, but I feel like nothing good is happening to me. I just want to be happy again>>

Because you men on GWS are so blatantly sexist, do you approve of female genital mutilation and/or think that it is worse than male circumcision? I wouldn't put it past many of you, considering your degrading comments about women in general.

I tend to find myself worrying a lot over small and sometimes big things. I find myself worrying about some of the things I have said and most of the time what I say is not rude or mean. I just worry about the reaction of the person, etc.

What are some good books that helps people cope with these types of things? And any suggestions on how to deal with this would be appreciated.

What is this "criminal gene" that official feminist ideology claims that men have but women don't? (Meaning that women are genetically incapable of doing any wrong.) Seems very reminiscent of the 'eugenics' movement of the 1920s from which Hitler got his ideas.

i heard childhood may have something to do with it, but i'm just wondering what would make someone be submissive? can they change to being assertive? i was always this way and still am, i never really could stand up for myself b/c i was always certain i WOULD get beat up or the other person would say something to outsmart me. where does this trait come from?

I think it's a shame. The degree took longer, and was harder to earn than showing up for a martial arts class a few times a week for a few years.
If girls find out I'm a college grad, their reaction is not even close to the way their eyes light up when someone tells them I have a black belt. I'm not even all that serious about classes anymore. I've never earned a dime from it. In fact, it's been a very expensive hobby over the years.

The reaction is the same from my cousin and her friends (high school), to women my age (30s).
Is this kind of like the way men like girls in cheerleader, flight attendant, or Hooters uniforms?

Last night I dreamed that I had a glass of wine and the next morning we had to take breathalizers in order to take our finals, i freaked out and starting bawling because I didn't think I would pass the breathalizer test. The police ended up coming and I was sentanced to jail for four years.

Another time I was in a hotel trying E but i didnt want it but this girl told me to so I mashed up the pill. I put the mashed up bits in my mouth but then at the last second I spit it all over the bathroom and some narc walked in and led me to the police hotel room (?) and I had to press my thumb up to this huge machine in order to see if I had taken E. Then I woke up. It was just stuff like that...
The only drugs I've done are alcohol and weed. I am underage for alchohol.

So what is going on? And when i cant remember my dreams I wake up sad or VERY stressed out but theres nothing thats stressing me out in my life, I've finished finals and I'm on christmas break!!

I'm bipolar (cyclothymic) and lately I've felt stranger than normal.
The past 3 days I've been HIGHLY manic. As in, random insane laughter. I haven't felt truly blissful, it seems, all month. I thirst for time locked inside my own head, secluded from the rest of the world. Adolescents make me sick. Even some of my friends are beginning to make me sick. I feel very short-tempered, like everyone's just... frustrates me. Nobody else really notices, but I feel it building up inside, like a balloon that just can't stretch any larger. I'm finding it hard to differentiate between dream and reality. Oh, and I've developed an odd twitch right below the right side of my collarbone (most likely unrelated, just thought I'd toss it in).

I've never quite experienced these sorts of feelings. I've always been mellow, optimistic, outgoing, and level-headed. What's going on?

Introduce ya to a very sick girl, now 16. Very sick-minded. How did she get this way? She started masterbating before she knew what it was. As a child, she discovered that pressing in between her legs felt strangely pleasing. She didn't know much about sex aside that it involves 2 naked bodies. When she asked her peers, the reply was an uncomfortable "you don't know? omg, don't worry about it." So she got curious, and through ways, found out all there is to know about it: positions, 69, bi and homo sex, masturbation, sex toys, and other disturbing sexual fetishes. When she found out that masturbating is gross, she felt ashamed and afraid that anyone would ever find out. But since she already does it and it feels so good, she continues to do it frequently anyways. Her mind is a mess. She experienced multiple orgasms. No longer a virgin in mind, she fears any future husband that is a nice guy will like her or think her a real virgin. Fearful, ashamed,sad, soul a emotional wrek. Thoughts?

I heard something on the radio tonight, some psychologist who claimed that teens who are otherwise not popular or quiet and shy at school etc. use online forums such as facebook and youtube as ways of making some kind of claim to fame in a way that is pretty unsafe and dangerous.

Kids post drunken images and videos and photos etc. that they pass around others publicize without their permission.

Is all that a way to gain the attention they don't get in "real life"?

That is what this pyschologist is claiming and they say that teens today need a lot more stimulus and need to be "doing stuff" a whole lot more than teens of yesteryear, ie. they need to be always kept busy.

No wonder parents are stretched to the limit! LOL

Thoughts from both sides?
