Psychology - November 2006

My Teacher started using one of the footstep counting things. So before she was about to put it on she reset it and and forgot it on the bench outside. Scared because she had payed a lot for it she asked us to spread out and find it. When I found it on the bench it had counted to six. Now heres where my question comes into play. Do you think that maybe, just maybe, the Earth gives off tiny vibrations which the counter picked up?

I have had a dream similar to this on many occasions. the dream is always the same i feel like iam awake and something or someone is holding my hands and strangling me. i try to call oout to my partner or my house mates but i cant scream at all. i have recently moved to a new university house, there is a stange feeling about this house. and iam not being paraniod.

I last had this dream 3 nights ago. in this dream i managed to make a slight whimper. with that i was able to release my hands. the thing is i didnt wake up i WAS awake i rolled over and held on to my partner. he later stated that i had cried out but he had heard not to wake people in a dream state as it can be dangerous. but he said i was facing away from him and he is not sure but he does belive my eyes were open.

please can anyone tell me what is going on! it is not normal and it is getting stupid i have been to the doctor they have given me vallium and other sleeping aids but i cant get to sleep.

Its the middle of the night, your driving your car, and all of a sudden you run over and brutally kill a black man.

There's no chance you'll get caught.... do turn yourself in?

I cannot stop thinking about it. It ruins my life, does not let me concentrate in more important things. I do not like it and I want to get rid of it.

I frequently seem to space out in class and miss some information. I've had this all my school life, and oddly enough it only happens in school! I can't allow this to happen when I attend College.

Should I go see a doctor and subscribe for some medication or what?

If somebody suffers from social anxiety disorder and borderline avoidant personality disorder (call it 'love shyness' if the term is medically accepted), to the tune that the frustrations of not finding a romantic/sexual partner are driving him to infatuation with the possible risk of causing severe emotional/physical distress to the (unrequited) subject of his affections, in such a case would his suicide be a justifiable/preferrable alternative to prevent such an action?

Why low educated people often feel confused in life?
Why educated people always know exactly what they want in life?

Science and technology have advanced so much that if there were such things as ghosts then surely there would be reams of CCTV footage, sound recordings, energy readings. In this age of great certainty of how science and nature work, why is there such an upsurge in programmes such as Ghost Hunters and Most Haunted? Why do we still have this need to believe in ghosts? Is it fear of the unknown, are we bored or is it a religious thing?

i used to have a really bad inner rage problem and would just explode with anger in the street, and get into staring myself. ive gotten a hell of alot better but i still have these problems and horrible mood swings im trying to get my psychiatric problems attended to, im wanting a second opinion. however whenever i go out, which isnt much because of panic attacks and the fear i might lose control of my anger. i can feel peoples eyes on me, watching staring, and when ive looked around sometimes, ive noticed a few people actually are looking at me...i plan to move away near the coast and eventually emmegrate but i cant do that i feel till ive attended to my problems..i keep thinking are they doin it because of how i used to be or am i being ostrasised

I believe that the glass is always half full. If you think positive and not negative then more positive things will come your way.

Talking for me is like pretending. When I talk to others it feels usless, unnurshing, empty, non sastyfying, dry and boring and I feel very INSINCERE. It affects All my social relationships because its makes it impossible for me to really really connect with people. I also feel pain because I feel I am trapped inside myself and do not know how to stimulate or express myself through talking or acting? I feel I am an outgoing person deep deep inside, but do not how to bring out my exterior nature. It seems that I am an extreme case of an interior person.

Do you know what I'm talking about? If so, what is it and what can I do about this problem to fix it? I'm not looking for sympathy, just give me your best educated guess. Thanks a Million.

Points that may help in assesment
I'm a young adult women.
and spend most of my time in solitude.
