Psychology - August 2006

Most of the time it doesn't seem like a big deal, but I'm realizing more and more that it is. When I walk down the street, sometimes i think I'm the center of attention. I feel like people have these extreme impressions about me, like wow, this guy looks strong or who does he think he is, when in truth they're probably thinking about themselves or what they're going to do next. Then, when it comes to my friends, it's a little different. Once in a while, I think they're hiding something from me when they're not. This happens with my best friend too, who I've known for years, and is extremely faithful. Have any of you gone through experiences like this? Please explain and what did you do to overcome your paranoia?

What is the definition of insanity? In diagnosing a mental illness, what do you look for? How would you know if someone is actually insane as apposed to being sane and just making things up?

Also, is there any sort of brain activiy that would denote insanity? Does the brain act differently in a sane mind from an insnane mind?

Do you believe that psychiatrist and counselors actually have the ability to help people ...or do you think that their professions are just hogwash?

I don't have a good track record with girls. I had a couple of friends that were girls in the sixth grade but none at all since then...

Does it mean he's crazy about you and in love with you already?

Just because something is beatiful, doesn't mean that he/she/it can't handle itself. Why does my brother constantly insist that something like a unicorn, is a juvinile obsession? A guy can be fanatical about dragons for as long as he lives, but a girl is questioned when she's eighteen and loves unicorns.

Whenever my parents tell me to go to youth group or go meet kids my age and hang out with them, I find it extremly difficult. I hate being around kids my age and I hate having to talk to them and be in the same room with them. I prefer hanging with the adults, I don't know why, and the adults treat me like a child. So therefore I can't even hang around the adults because.

Is this a specific disorder? I know it's not Anti-Social disorder because I've already looked that up. I do have OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) But I don't think my hatred for people my age is related to that. Way before puberty I was never like this, but gradually it started building up and now I just don't associate with anybody except my family and one friend.

Maybe it has to due with the fact that, when I was with kids they didn't treat me right or discluded me from their little "groups" and I got bullied quite a bit when I was younger. Please, do help me. Sorry I wrote so much.

I've fallen in love with a girl that I love so much. I mean I love her more than anything anything sooooo much even with all the things she does. but this really bothers me because she doesn't really pay attention to me, she looks interested in me, even when she speaks she pretends she likes me but when I invite her she rejects. I can't understand. help me please I'd rather get rid of this love but i can't. this is really going dangerous cause all of my life is going to be destroyed, I can't do other things the way I like cause all of my concentration is on this girl even if I don't want to.
How can I start a new life and forget about this girl? (I thought if time pass I'll forget about her but after 2 years I still have this problem. this is really bothering me.) help me pleaaaaseeee

I was susposed to see him yesterday . I tried calling , but the voicemail is full ( which means he's not getting his business calls either ) ! He hasn't checked his email either !
Im afraid bcuz he mentioned being depressed a couple weeks ago . I paged him with " Are you OK ? > I just hope your OK . " and I emailed him " For what it's worth > I love you . " I even went as far as to send him a cute pic .

I just don't know what I should do . Or if what I did was Ok . How do you deal with a situtation like this ?
