Psychology - January 2007

I have depression and I am angry all the time. I don't let people in because I can't handle being rejected. I cry and cut myself. I just don't know what to do with the hurt I feel. So this stranger I met in a chat said I was beyond help. I had talked to him a few times and he said cared about because he has suffered a lot? I don't think I'm beyond help, I just think I have a lot of healing to do and am not at the point of being in new relationships. I feel like I need others validations to be alright. How can I change that?

I have a 17 month old girl and she has EVERYTHING. OK...90% of her toys were given to us, but I can't stop buying things. Even when I was THINKING about getting pregnant, I bought stuff and just stored it away until I actually got pregnant. Then, at my baby shower, people didn't know what to buy since I had everything. My Aunt actually returned what she was going to give myself and my husband since I already had one. I've been cleaning out to make room for more and plan on selling what she no longer needs (we have VERY limited room) this summer at our annual garage sale. I shop sales all the time and eBay for her. Christmas was just here and I am already looking/buying summer clothes and items for Easter. Has anyone else experienced this?? Is it an addiction??

Would you classify a 4 month old infant that lives in the jungles of Africa slightly smarter or infinitely smarter than the man running the United States? I say that niga in the jungle got street smarts (jungle smarts in this case). If we fed the jungle monkey some meatloaf and goose liver would that make him a super genious? I really feel this would lead him to be the next Einstein...your thoughts!

One of my neighbors lost his home to foreclosure and the police came with a lock smith the bank hired to change the locks and found his body in his former living room with "another victim of capitalism" written on the wall. Do people try to measure their lives too much too social conformity/social standing. I have never meet a person who is down to earth and humble kill themselves. Most people I know who killed themselves over my lifetime (23) are social seeking yuppies who fail and end their lives over it....SAD!!! Why do people kill themselves? Your opinions I gave you mine.

I'm always nervous and feel like when I can't hear or see people talking, I think they're talking about me. Or when I cant see their faces theyre mimicking me. I also have paranoia about getting perfect grades in school and get nervous when I get tests back or when I get things wrong. I'm only 14! Please help!

I've been searching for solutions to my dilema but cannot find a situation that closely matches mine. There is a guy I like a lot, as a friend and more. I've known him for a long time, and recently we have become very close...I confided in him with situations in my life and he was genuinely concerned and the conversations we had afterward are literally the best talks I've ever had with anyone. He knows what I'm trying to saying before I even say it. When we're together I feel more chemistry between us than I've felt with anyone else. He has a girlfriend and I respect that, but I would like to remain friends only he makes it difficult because it takes him a few days to respond to e-mails and text messages. I'm scared of loosing him as a friend, I find him to be an invaluable friend. I know I'll never be with him, but I can save the friendship, right? I haven't talked with him in 3 wks and still can't get him off my mind. I've gone out with friends, met some guys, nothing works.

yes, you may think that it's nothing to really worry about. i'm not. i'm curious as to why these things happen. as i'm falling asleep - in between awake and asleep - i hear voices. these voices are very much like if you were in a crowded room. these voices aren't always speaking english. there's usually a mix with english, arabic, german, french and i believe chinese. i only know a tiny bit of german and none of the others. i don't understand what the other voices are saying, but i can feel what they are trying to say - if that makes any sense.

in the last four months, i've been having these problems to where i'm hearing these voices. however - there is always a few voices i can detect as a person who i know. these people are my mother, mother-in-law, my brother, my husband and the last voice is the sound of my own voice in my head. when i hear these voices, they either call out my name, whisper "i love you", laugh, or sing to me. if any of you have suggestions, please let me know.

There is a person who sits next to me at work who constantly moves his thighs in and out to the point where his whole self is moving.

I find it annoying because you can hear his pant legs shuffling but it is also distracting as I can see him moving from the corner of my eye. I just wish the bastard would sit still like everyone else.

Is he masturbating or does he simply not realise what he is doing?

This is a relatively recent occurrance which has me perplexed.

Thanks

Not feeling good?
I haven't been feeling good lately and i really don't know why. Nowadays i don't really want to talk to anyone i talk a little bit to my friends and my mom but noone else really. What makes me mad is when people mess with me. Today i got to english 3 class (im a junior) and when i was about to sit in my seat this other boy says "hey hey hey thats my seat!! We got new seats." And i didn't believe him because not that many people moved so i think he was lying so i sat down. Then he tried to knock my bag out of my hand and that just made me mad! I'm already not feeling good nowadays and now someone got to mess with me to make it even worse. How can i not let this bother me? And what is the problem with me? I'm just sick of people messing with me.

Ever since I could remember I've been REALLY shy! I've always been known as the "quiet girl." But anyways Im about 2 be 20 this month and I just dont know how ti get over this. People tell me to change but its not as easy as it looks. I believe that because Im shy it has prevented me from getting a boyfriend too. (YEah Ive never had one."Also when a guy really likes me I tend to avoid him and he moves on thinking I am not interested in him. My shyness is actually the main reason why I am majoring in psychology which is ironic lol Im only a sophomore in college and I wanna know for the more experienced people how do I get over it? WHats your advice?

I’m a 24 year old male virgin, the reason I’m a virgin is because for some God forsaken reason I have got it in my head to wait for the right girl. However because of this it has left me really sexually frustrated. I know from reading from sex books that sex Is normal and healthy, and leaves you extremely gratified after the experience. So why have I got it in my head to wait for the right girl? Please help.

My 25 year old (younger) brother has been in jail many times. He can't handle alcohol and does drugs at times and even sells them at times. He says he's addicted to that kind of lifestyle. He doesn't work and doesn't have a license to drive until he takes a class because he has a couple of DUIs and recently totalled three vehicles in a 5 week period. He's cost my parents so much money and grief and heartache. He has a grim outlook for life and needs help...desperately. He won't go to the local rehab center again. He's been before. He gets violent when drinking or on drugs. He yells and cusses you and calls you the worst things you've ever heard. His mind is deranged when he messes with substances. He is gentle and loveable and comical when he's not messing with that stuff, but those good times are rare. We had to throw him out of the house recently and I am scared of him now. It's awful to be afraid of your own brother. is anyone else going through this and how do you handle it

Hey everyone, Im a 25 yearold advanced guitarist. My mum is always telling me to enter talent contests, and now is putting pressure on me to enter the new upcoming Simon Cowell programme, You've Got Talent. She phoned up and left details and got a form posted out (all without me knowing) I have just told her I really don't want to do it- so I didn't fill the form. She said she is going to fill it out and send it. I don't have a band and I don't sing and I don't give a poop about being famous. But I feel guilty, and hard to explain to mum my feelings about this. I really ain't cut out for this sort of thing, and all it does is embarass and annoy me when she keeps bringing stuff like this up. She just doesn't understand my feeling. I'm not a confident person and never will be, also (as a guitarist) I am not good enough to become professional. Singers dont need music theory and reading ability to become famous- just a good voice. I feel like sh!t, what do I do? Best ansa chosen as always
