Psychology - December 2006

I'm curious of others peoples fears and why they fear them. Is the fear appropriate? Meaning, does it consume you, cause anxiety or just when it occurs?

I mean what do you think people see when they see you? Do you think they think bad about you?

Last night I was talking with one of my friends from high school (which we both graduated 10+ years ago). We were talking about where we are in life, careers, relationships and so on. I told him that since I don't have a family of my own, I don't feel like I have achieved much in life. As he was trying to convince me differently, he mentioned that I was still young enough to do something great. What is a "great" thing I can do and is there any age limit in greatness?

My fears are inconsistent. I love public speaking yet I am convinced I am shy. I will also start a conversation with an absolute staranger yet my mind tells me I am scared to do this. Can a fear be artificial? Is my mind telling me I am scared of this things for some reason?

I'm a bit lost and don't know how to cure this problem, hopefully someone can help, I find the stupidest things can get me upset and depressed, I don't mean I end up in tears or anything just really depressed the rest of the day, I.E someone at work my boss gives me a really crappy 10 min job to do this will ruin the rest of my day, or I take something someone says the wrong way even thnough I know i;ve took it the wrong way I still end up depressed the rest of the day, what has happened plays on my mind the rest of the day. Has anyone else this problem or do you have a cure? Once someone puts me in a bad mood thats me the rest of the day, nothing seems to cure it

I am stressed out to the point of insanity. I have no idea what to do. I recently graduated high school and I'm trying to figure out what to do with my life, i don't have a job, i don't have a plan, i don't have anything!! My family is putting all kinds of pressure on me to decide what i want to do, but its not that easy. I just cant take it anymore. If this doesn't stop I'm gonna make a decision where I'm gonna be unhappy and i don't want that. I just wish my family would back off, I've even told them to, but they wont stop. I wanna go to college( I'm still not sure for what), and my family is telling me if i cant make a decision i might as well just join the army. They make me feel like such a failure. I'm seriously on the verge of ending all this with a gun. I just need something to help me decide and all this to stop.

my husband is going out of town today and he asked me this morning to get the kids ready and all of us go together. well it is my birthday tommorow and i already have plans with my friend who is coming in from out of town to see me. so i said no. he then gets so angry with me. calling me all kinds of names. well i told him fine i would cancel the plans i made for 2 weeks to go even tho i know it will not be good. he refused and left. come to find out he asked everyone at his work to go but they couldnt. so i feel like the last choice. should i be feeling guilty for not wanting to go? why would someone get so upset just because i already made other plans?

Okay, so this question was brief and kind of unspecific. I think I might have a lying problem, but I’m just not sure. I’m not pleased with myself, so I seek ways to become other people in the only way I can: online. I’m very good at conning other people online. Now, this may not seem like such a talent and I suppose it’s quite easy to do, but to be able to convince someone I’m a “20-year old male” from anywhere on earth for up to 6 months at a time I must be doing something right. Of course I’m not though, in fact I’m a 16-year-old girl who lives in Texas. But to be able to convince people that I’m someone else is a thrill. To have them to the point where they claim they’re “in love” with me. Now I’m smart enough to know that people say things they don’t mean, much like me, but these people, these girls, mean what they say. And are who they say they are. I avoid speaking about phone numbers, or web cams until they mention it themselves, and when they do I make up an excuse and avoid it again, until they mention it yet again. At this time, when it gets too much to avoid, I simply erase them from my minds and my contact list. And I start over. Now I have no doubt you all will find this strange, but my question is: does this mean I have a lying problem? I’ve been told that people do this kind of stuff all the time, just to experiment. But, I actually absorb myself into the person, so much that for that moment I am that person. Maybe it’s acting. I just don’t know. What do you think?

There was once a girl named Sue who had a sister. Their mother died, sadness, crying. At the funeral Sue saw a very good looking man, a very atractive man. After three days, Sue's sister died. Why did her sister die?

I'll provide the analysis tomorrow please recheck this question after answering. (I will do an edit)

i have known my b/f for about two months now,he seemed normal like ost guys untill two nights ago. while i was at his place for the night, i descovered a bag full of ladies underwear hidden in his wardrobe, when i questioned him about it, he said he accidently picked up someone else laundry from the laundrette, i believed him and forgot all about it as he said he was going to take it back.and last night while we were at the movies i decided to treat him to a b/j since not many ppl were about near where we were sitting, he wanted it at first then as iunzipped him, he pushed me away, i felt summit lacey he was wearing under his pants, i asked him after why, he said it was not the right place to do it. what is he up too as i have a suspicion he is into wearing ladies underwear and he probably is a wierdo, shall i leave him?

Several people in my life tend to get deeply depressed about their life and always come to me to talk about it. I am a good listener, but I am also a very optimistic person and I don't dwell for long on negative things in my own life. I am finding it very hard to give them good advice on how to overcome their sadness. It is something that comes easy for me, but they never seem to understand when I tell them that being a happy person isn't something that happens to you, YOU have to CHOOSE to be happy and do it yourself. Aparrently this advice only works for some people, and not for all.
Anyway, I am starting to feel a little weighed down by all the people I know who are always depressed and wonderring what else I can possibly do for them. So far my advice seems to go in one ear and out the other.
Last week with my boyfriend, he was telling me about something that was making him depressed. I am getting tired of always feeling like peoples counselor...I don't know what to do
