I met a man about 1 month ago. He is one of the smartest men I have ever met. He is professional (accounter) and he is single. I am not going to explain the way i met him but the short story is that it wasn't intentional at all (we didn't mean to meet each other). At the beggining, he didn't seem to be very motivated to talk to me, but then, when he saw me, he changed his attitute. I am pretty sure , he was attracted to me Physically. Besides the fact that I know he knows I am smart, I guess that's all I have to impress him together with my physical appareance (not to much to impress an intelectual and smart man). I am feeling very insecure every time we talk, because He has a wide of knowledge of almost any thing. I know pretty much nothing. I only have my 12 grade. He keep telling me he feel very comfortable talking to me and that he likes my ways. I feel very inferior when we talk to the point that it's affecting my self esteem. My question is below

I seem to have the same recurring dream that I am trying to escape from war planes which are dropping bombs. I am terrified in these dreams and wake up still shaking. My dreams always seem to have me 'escaping' from something or someone.

Why do people love to have a victim? Let's face it, all throughout history, societies have designated scapegoats to take the blame for their sins. The ancient romans buried randomly selected people for good luck to the gods. If you've read the short story The Lottery by Shirley JAckson, you'll know what im talking about. But even if u haven't read the book or the short story, why do u think everyone loves a victim?

It's interesting, the realization of the negativity of all the ?'s i've asked. Oh well, guess it helps being honest. Anyway, what I mean is i feel trapped, i took employment feeling work service was dumping me, seeing how they couldn't help. I've felt as much as my schizoid/dysthymia/anxiety probably means i need therapy, that given the dozen i've been to, it's just not worth hearing the same answers that haven't worked. Like it's an 80-20 rule (give the advice that'll help 80% of patients, for nothing can help the 20). While I'm not actively suicidal, i have at least begun work on creating a personal dvd explaination in case) .. now this might just be another of my long standing ideation issues, but i guess i just can't figure how to find a way out, or a way to find any interest in anything in life (yes, tried meds, talk, etc without effectiveness, hence the frustration). Sorry, perhaps i'm just trying to feel negative for it's all i can feel ... just thankful i'm not into drugs

I always expect the worst to happen to me and as a result I end up being too careful, avoiding risks. Lately, I have started to wonder that I may keep the bad things out but I also prevent the good ones from coming in.

My friend have become very close over the past year even though she went behind my back and kissed my boyfriend. I forgave her and even thanked her for showing me I couldn't trust him, but I do still resent her and I feel bad about that. I don't want to hate her but she has been mean to me lately. She is constantly picking fights and when I say anything she tries to point out how I am in the wrong. She knows she was wrong to kiss my boyfriend and she even told me later that she liked him even though she knew I was in LOVE with him. I still am even though we aren't together anymore. I don't think I want to be friends with her anymore and I feel terrible about that. Am I wrong to not want to talk to her like a used to and if I 'm not how do I stop talking to her with out hurting her feelings?

PTSD sufferers are known to respond uncontrollably if a subsequent similar circumstance arises, until the crisis is dealt with. People with a dissociative identity may be taken over in similar circumstances. Certain research indicates that about 85% of DID cases arise from trauma in early childhood and the remaining cases all have a common factor of (probably inappropriate) attempts at therapy.
The differences between PTSD reaction & DID appear to be 1) the awareness or otherwise of the subject 2) the length of time the subject takes to deal with the crisis.
Is there an objective boundary between PTSD & DID?
What other defined differences exist between DID & PTSD?

Is it okay to see a psychiatrist or a counselor even if you know you don't have many problems? I come from a nice family, with A's ands B's in school, I'm still just 14, but nothing seems to feel satisfactory and I always have thoughts of suicide and a hopeless future. I don't wanna seem like I'm complaining about life since there isn't really anything wrong, but I don't know why I feel so depressed all of the time.

Most feminists I know just want the same opportunities as men. Many have male friends, good manners, intelligent opinions, and indepentent lives. They are also feminine.

.
Some are angry, but certainly not all.

So many people assume otherwise when the word feminist is used.

I am 23. I never had a girlfriend or even a friend that is a female. I currently have no male friends. I never went on a date or had my first kiss. I never even held hands with a female. I DO like females. I never went to a prom, homecoming dance or a winter formal. I never went to a girl's party or over a girls house. I am not sure why. How do you feel about this?

I felt this was the best area to post this for everyone's feelings on it.

well...I am here at home was not monitoring my husband...I let my guard down and He has gone from room to room tossing the furniture everywhere.He drank everything in the house..beer and wine..He is not upset, he said,about anything. He just went nuts.
