I saw one, "Save California...Leave and take someone with you!"

I was stuck on the 405 freeway laughing like a lunatic!

I know this is a problem for the psychiatrist, but I want to know what you guys think I have.

I have episodes where I get really anxious and nervous. All the conversations or sounds going on around me run together and it's overwhelming beyond words. I get where I need to do something at that exact moment. Like one day, I realized we were running out of dog food.. and for some reason I NEEDED to go buy dog food at that moment. Like it was the most important thing in the world. Later on I realized how stupid it was that I freaked out. I don't really know what memories I have are real or not. What's wrong with me?

I don't mean OCD obsession. I mean a normal healthy obsession. Does everyone have those? Or is there no such thing as a 'healthy obsession'?

A couple years ago, I brought up a memory I've always of my family finding puppies underneath our house. I've always had this memory, and when I brought it up, they told me this never happened. I have no idea why I have this memory of finding puppies underneath our house if it never happened. Now just last night, I brought up another memory that apparently never happened. My cousin died from getting hit by a car when I was 8 years old. Ever since last night I've had the memory of my family and I driving to the hospital to see him before he died but me and my brother falling asleep in the car before we got there. We started talking about my cousin last night, and I brought it up and my family had no idea what I was talking about. They said only my dad went to the hospital while the rest of us stayed home. There was never a car ride or falling asleep.

What the hell? Why do I have memories of things that never happened? Has anyone else ever gone through this or know anything about it?

I've had many weird dreams in my lifetime, but here are the highlighted ones...

- I was 12 & had gone shopping with a friend @ the mall. Her mom picked her up, but mine didn't show up. I look up at the interstate & mom's car sits there, empty. I walk up there & panic...then begin to drive myself! I get a few concerned glances, but drive just fine. Until I bump into the car in front of me - a young boy went flying out the window, the mother beat me up, & the police came. Then mom woke me up in reality.

- Something was wrong with our school, so we moved back into the old building for awhile - it looked like my first elementary school, but more gothic victorian. Then my brother, who's 25, shows up outside the door & my dog's sitting in the hallway. 0.o

- My family moved from our state, West Virginia, to Illinois...somewhere near Chicago. There was really no explanation, it was so random. & the Rocky Mountains appeared from time to time...they're located on the western coast!

I am seeing a counselor for the first time tomorrow, but have been doing some reading on my own. I'm afraid that I have a co-dependency problem based on my reading. I wonder though, how one draws the line between being truly co-dependent and wanting to protect those you love. For instance, I am in a situation right now where a lot of people are going to be affected. I want to protect them all, but is that becasuse I'm co-dependent or just a normal instinct to protect those I love? I'm going to mention this to the counselor tomorrow, I just wanted some other opinions as well. No smart-*** answers either, please.

"We should hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities. The most successful educational approach to the ***** is through a religious appeal. We don't want the word to go out that we want to exterminate the ***** population. and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members." Margaret Sanger's December 19, 1939 letter to Dr. Clarence Gamble, 255 Adams Street, Milton, Massachusetts.

I've generally considered the belief in a personal God, with whom one has a "personal connection", and the belief in any religion (i.e. a big list of do's and don'ts) to be different, but related concepts.

Some examples of these do's and don'ts are opposition to homosexuality (alot of religions!)... and things like required religious clothing (e.g. headscarves for Muslim women).

I'm beginning to think now (from talking to people who believe in a personal God) that such people will always have a list of religious do's and don'ts, and that the only difference is how long the list is!

What are your thoughts and experiences on this?

and by byproducts I mean that psychology is only for healing normal people, it's for healing people who have ailments that are caused by living in unnattural enviroments such as space ships, submarines or large cities. I feel if people played a more active role in nature, all these strange issues wich I consider by products of not living properly would not exist, Hence psychology would not be nesseccary. Does any one agree? or feel I shouldn't live?
