I dream intensly almost every night and wake up on average 2 times a night from my dreams. My dreams may cover almost any aspect. Why do I dream so much, I need to try and stop it because it is making me really tired in the day...

in a lot of movies that i have seen, people get into accidents and lose their memory. when memory is loss, they forget all their loved ones and events that they have went through. but they don't seem to forget to do other things such as writing, reading, etc. is this even true? and if you have lost your memory, would you even be able to regain it?

I find myself worrying over little things and thinking about them all the time, things like my carpet is dirty shoulds be an insignificant thing but it stresses me out to the point where I can't go in the room with the light on, I have to eat my dinner in the dark.
Why am I getting obsessed with unimportant things?

The scientists say it's a transparent liquid, ordorless, tasteless...blah blah blah...oxigene and hydrogene...blah blah blah...That sounds dry what they tell about water.
I would like to know how you feel it, how you look at it... philosophically.

I know we've already had this kind of question here :" tell me what you know about water? " - from BarrelRacer0506 ...but tell me more...

I had the thought that I will never know when I die, because thoughts always happen about things in the past, never the present moment. So I will die and my senses will be gone, and I won't actually ever get to "experience" death. I'm already seeing a counselor, but she just says there's nothing I can do about it, so I might as well tackle my "fear of life" instead.

I had a very errie happing a few days ago.
New Years Eve I was driving down the interstate and stopped for gas at weigels station alongside the interstate. While I was it that weigels station I had a bad feeling while I was pumping my gas. I was very glad to get out of there but I didn't know why? I had stopped at this station hundreds of times?
About 6 hours later I found out from my parents that one of my good friend's dad had got run over at this same exit while trying to flag down some one due to car trouble. (He was the first death of 2007 in my county)
He got killed in the exact area that I felt anxious about.

What could have caused me to almost know something bad was going to happen here before it happened?

This isn't about the religious interpretation of "free will" but about what science/psychology says about it, so please don't cite biblical scripture. Thanks.

I see free will as the ability we sometimes have to step back from a situation & evaluate it logically, rather than emotionally or instinctively. It's like an on/off switch that we "throw" in one direction or another in order to gain intellectual control over a problem we might otherwise react to emotionally. I don't think it's 100% in our control, however. The "free will" switch appears to be harder for certain people to throw in certain situations.

For example, in societies like the USA where people are constantly tempted by fattening food, there are more fat people. Apparently those who have a harder time losing weight have a "heavier" eating switch than thin people. In societies with healthier foods, people are thinner because they don't have to use their "eating" switch as often.

What does science have to say about this?

why am I all of a sudden scared of things that I wasnt scared of a year ago.. example: I was driving to work at another site about 40 miles from my normal work location, about 20 minutes into the drive I became very scared, scared Id loose control of my car, scared a deer my pop out, scared the guy in front of me would jam the breaks and Id end up in his neck. After about 3 minutes of feeling this way I began feeling as if I wasnt in control of my car I opened the window tried to regroup and thankfully made it to my destination safe. Im 28 and find that in the last 2 years Ive become a chicken $h!t...

I am a college freshman, and I really try hard to fix this somewhat childish, immature character that I still carry on.

When I was a little kid, I was kinda a shy person, and I wanted to fix this by keep boosting my pride and emphasizing my intelligence to the others. And this worked very well in managing my shyness, but now I have a bigger problem of being a smartass and an extremely arrogant person.

I do believe that others don't really need to know that I read Nietzche when I was 12 or I did algebra when I was 8, but I tell this to my friends, and make myself a big showing off jerk.

How do you manage yourself in this kind of situation?

Or more accurately, does "barely legal" porn contribute to pedophilia, or is it just another deviation of human behavior to have something that can't be attained?

I know the answer to this question is unequivecally me! I know I'm the one that is holding myself back. I'm a bit concerned with feelings that my life is going no where fast. I'm 26, have a dead-end, but steady job. I haven't found another suitable job; definetely not for lack of trying! I make due with what I have but I am definetely cash strapped. I'm somewhat dissatisfied with my relationships; I feel that I haven't got back what I have put into them. I have an associates degree, but it doesn't seem to get me anywhere. I sincerely can't think of a career path that intrests me. I feel as if I have always done things just to say I do them. I just love life and people and I want to be a more active participant in life! What can I do?
