Psychology - November 2006

He is a year away from getting his doctorate in Psychology, and plans to go into practice as a clinical shrink, but he sleeps with his light on, smokes dope everyday and claims that he talks with God!

Makes me wonder if I should EVER see one of these guys!

Where do our thoughts go?
Do they just disappear,or are they stored up in our brains?

Hello,
Love forums like this where people can share their information, which I love doing myself.

In that area, I have a question: How Do I Deal With Rejection?

I am a deep thinker and informationalist, have been since I was a child. I love finding out about new things that are either fun or beneficial to life changes, and also love sharing my found goodies with others. But it's hard sometimes, especially in the area where I live, to share information with people who are too busy to listen, yet ask what you can do for them.

I feel sometimes like just closing down and if someone asks, why even bother to share.

I feel so excited about things that I find and love helping others, but I think hope leaves them and they don't see the potential of what I tell them.

How can I get over this?

Who started this sterotype? I'm just curious because my secretary, who happens to be a blond just made the most ridiculous mistake, I had to laugh. I asked her to make a pot of coffee and when I went to pour myself a cup, all that cameout was boiling water. I went to her and asked if she had forgotten something when she made the coffee, she's says no so I showed her the coffee pot and you know what she said...she said "I'm sorry, I had another blond momment." Was this an act or is she really that ditzy? I don't usually believe in sterotypes but is there some truth behind blond being ditzy?

I am trying to determine this but all my mind can think of is rehearsal in the phonological loop. Are there any studies which prove this link? Is it because,

'if a quick mental representaion can be determined the more space is available to do the sum', where and how can this be proved?

Here's mine to get you started, years ago I got dumped by who I thought was the love of my life(ha ha) for another chick.

I went around his house in the middle of the night and tried to get the front door open using a stick thorugh the catflap! When that didn't work I broke into his garage, got the ladder out and attempted to climb through his bathroom window! Seriously, the damn thing was the size of A4 paper!

I got stuck and after being up there (freezing) for about twenty minutes I got free and climbed back down.
Then, if that wasn't bad enough, I dragged the plastic garden into the middle of the lawn and passed out lying on two chairs.

I woke up the next morning SO cold and sober, to see him and the cow he dumped me for laughing at my sad *** out of the kitchen window.

What a loser.

I'm pretty normal now but we all have our moments, what have you guys done, or had done to you? Anyone beat that?

Boy decided he wanted to move your collection that you, "painstakingly set up in some order", asked his mom if he could set up a computer there, in the garage, and just PUSHED YOUR STUFF ASIDE???? mom said it was okay...
The computer was in a place where if he wanted to actually USE it, he could have used it right where it was...
But instead he said, "mom, can I put the computer here", right where I had set up my crystals in rows, for some reason.
Wheteher it was to look at them, or to photograph, or just to show off my stuff that I found this year.
I felt like the 14 year old was trying to START SOMETHING, and that he could have used the computer right where it was.
He has been in trouble with the law 3 times in a year and a half.
I have little if any control over him.
I felt like it was an invasion of my space, and like it was a personal attack to try and start a fight.
I noticed it two days ago, and last night the computer was not HOOKED up or anything...

there are times when my supervisor and i just clash, and I don't know what to do about it. I am not one to hide when I get frustrated and I find it healthy to vent. She takes it personally, and has written on my evaluation in the past that I make her feel uncomfortable. Since that evaluation I have done what I can to improve things, but I am not perfect.
Yesterday I had enough of the stress and it showed. I am not proud of this, and explained where I was at to my supervisor. Again I had the response that I make her feel uncomfortable. So what do I do other than remind myself not to vent to her or show any emotion.
Does any one else out there find it difficult to smile when you are stressed on the job? How can I learn to hide my feelings at the workplace? Should I even try to?
Any advice appreciated, thanks :)
