Psychology - November 2006

I feel guilty all the time. There is a voice in my mind that continually pumps negativity. I once attributed this to my conscience but then I began to think deeply about it. There was a time when I was younger that I operated with no anxiety. I never avoided conflict I ran to it. But now it is starting to make sense. My brother was a jerk so I would kick his azz. One day he hit my sister so I punched him in the gut. My mother told me he could die from the hit and so basically told me I killed him. Then one day I went to take a bath. There was a spider in the tub and I killed it. My mother told me that killing a spider is bad luck and that if the house burned down it was my fault because I brought bad luck to the house. Is this a normal way to treat your kid or is this one of the reasons why I suffer and have suffered from depression and OCD?

A week or so ago i posted this picture for my avatar, it was a suggestion from a friend in order to see how many shallow men there are on this site. It worked, within minutes i was receiving email addresses and comments on my looks rather than my questions. Now men get a lot of stick about being shallow and judging a woman based on looks and sometimes its justified as these men proved.

What surprised me though was the reaction from women, the bitterness and jealousy could be felt for miles, women answering my questions calling me a t.art and only answering my questions in order to insult me. Now lets get this straight, i am quite obvioulsy not the woman in the picture, its a modelling shot. But this woman exists and who are we to decide her personality or intelligence based on her photo. She probably earns thousands of pounds for modelling while you idiots sit at your desks for minimum wage, so who's smarter??

They are a lot of people who are persistant all the time. And usually they achieve what they want. But in the same time by pushing someone else to do what is in his best interest doesn't make him a good person.I'm a wrong? What do you think about his.

I have a co-worker that is a narcissist. She is constantly interrupting my conversations at work and picking on every little thing I say. She really tries to embarrass me. Also, she tries to discrediting my work at staff meetings which later she just copies and changes it a little bit. She tells people that she is a genius but I've never seen anything "genius" produced from her. I am so tired of her eye rolling and sighs. I always have to watch what I say instead of being my natural happy self. How do I deal with this type of person?

I had this really crazy dream last night. My dad was digging in the dirt and found a t-rex, which was taller than him. (my dad is like 6'4"). My dad brought it in the house and I was really afraid of it. Then my dad trained it like he would a dog. I was still afraid of it. I was trying to find places to hide where it couldn't get me. Then my boyfriend came over in my dream, and then I woke up. Can you help me? it was really weird.

I was reading a fascinating book where it said that people once thought in the 1950s it was fashionable to go and get themselves lobotomised. it gives me the creeps.

thankfully, they are no longer performed. (as far as I am aware.)

Even if I was completely justified I always feel bad after defending myself. I have never been scared of people but I will usually let them get away with disrespect so I can avoid hurting their feelings. But I wasn't always like this. When I was younger I was, and I am not exaggerating here, the toughest kid in school. No one could beat me in a one on one fight. I was not a bully, as a matter of fact I hung out with the rejects to protect them from the predators. But something happened. I don't know if it was my mom continually trying to castrate me or what but I turned completely passive. The thing is, I don't know if I really feel bad for what I do or if I avoid conflict because I hate the voice in my head that keeps telling me I feel bad. Can anyone help me figure out what is going on?
