I read this question in a writer's magazine (I am a writer) and have been thinking it over. I can look up the definitions in the dictionary, but I don't know how these two things work inside a person's mind.

For example: Your conscience tells you right from wrong, but does your imagination lack those boundaries?

Does your imagination begin with your conscience?

I know some the questions that are going to follow, so I will try to answer them.
Yes I have had "mental problems" in the past. I am Manic-Depresive, and have Anxiety disorder. I am not currently medicated, and most recently I was on Prozac. But that med really tires me out and I am left with little or no energy.
Right now, I feel great, I am happy and feel things are good for me and everyone else comments that I am where I should be.
Occasionally, in the car or watching a show something sad comes on and I just feel like I HAVE TO CRY. Sometimes I do. Sometimes I hold back. They took me off the meds and they were going to transision me into others but I don't want to go back on them because they wear me out. Like I said, I feel great (NOT MANIC GREAT) and I need to know if this is a symptom of my problems that could force me back on my meds, or is this something that I can deal with on my own? I really need some advice. Thanks.

Believers and non-believers have reached opposite conclusions on the same issue with equal conviction. I find that fascinating and perplexing. Personally, I am a non-believer and don't really understand how people can honestly believe in God(s). And there are believers who don't understand how I can't believe. What is that people to be so far apart on the same issue? What is it about the way believers think that non-believers lack, or vice-versa? It has to be complex than just faith or a lack thereof.


I asked this question in religion & spirituality, but surprisingly only a couple people answered. I also think the psych people will give me a different perspective.

Im sure I set myself up for this..but haven't meant to.I try and try to research things that afflict me even asking questions here.This was probably the wrong thing to do.I now feel as if Im a premed student and have everything.As for my plight I don't know what to do..In my lifetime when I needed an answer I have gone to the libraries before home computers and then now to the internet..I am not a hypochondriac but suppose I could have developed some neurosis as to what is going on with me.I constantly persevere and others have done this as well seeking what the medical world has no answers for.Mine I think is the fact that I hear a pounding in my head.. maybe weight loss caused maybe an artery waiting to burst but its still there and not imagined..I have sensations that I have posted here and found that others could not understand as this is a local thing that causes them.You ask a local person and they oh welcome to the valley.. But I do ask on here with hopes that someone has a ?

Or perhaps you're likability is closer to 50/50. However likable you think you are, why do you think you are that way? Why do people like or dislike you?

OK is it possible for a child who is 2 yrs old to be diagnosed with this. When some of the childs therapists think its PDD. Yes she has behavior problems but what 2 yr old doesnt have. She is more frustrated than defiant. We had her seen by a psychologist for wrap around services which is something like Early intervention. I just think that the psychologist said she had this to get her into services and wouldnt pay attention to my concerns about the Autistic traits she displays. What can we do now. Not many child psychologists around see 2 1/2 yr olds.

of him wanting to commit suicide.H expressed his love and told me he didnt want to lose me. Come to find out the reason he was feeling this way was bc he got a onenight stand pregnant months before we met. As I helped him come to terms he decided to want to meet his child & I told him he should be apart of the childs life.Well, he decided to remain friends w/ me until he figured how to deal with it all, but to hold on to "us". But I found out he was developing feelings for the mom and he got caught out. We had a huge blow out and exchanged very hurtful words and was cold and hurtful..we never did before.Then we spoke again and he said it was all uncalled for. Yet, I feel he wasn't sincere about it. He wasnt even able to speak to me on the phone for more then 2 min. Now he doesnt want to speal to me at all. All I wanted was to discuss the matter.His he feeling guilty, does he feel imperfect in my eyes now, so he is acting defensive?He hurt me beyond belief. Did he really want me gone

does anyone with bipolar feel like the path to actually finding out who you are is actually longer than what it should be? Like it seems when you are manic you almost have it figured out but then when you crash it seems you are someone completely different with different goals and yes even when being evened out things are different too. How does one distinguish what is real or not when the mood changes so much?

I'm scared of the dark so I sleep with the lights on. But my friends don't know that I'm scared of the dark, if they knew, they probably would made fun of me.... Also, when people talk about someone had died, It's hard for me to sleep. But in the day time, I'm not scared. How can I get over these night fears?

I like my personal trainer and he is really nice and the other day he said i miss training you. He asked if i wanted to train with him for the next 2 months because after that he is moving to the uk for 2 years. I messaged him that night saying ' It's too bad you are leaving in 2 months because i really like you! you are a good personal trainer and i will miss you training me.' He never replied and now I am nervous to train with him because I am afraid he doesn't like me the way that i like him. What should i do?
