I have a really weird voice.
Most people can't understand me because I speak too low, but I'm shy, when I get confidence I tend to speak really fast and people can't understand me.
I change accent really easy.
And I have never been able to scream, as soon as I scream I start coughing really bad. What can I do?

Has anyone noticed that you can't go for more then one hour of watching the news before hearing about some 30 year old being charged with the rape of a 16 or 15 year old girl. I understand that some of these kids look 20 but mentally they have the mind of a child for god's sake. How these child molesters even manage to get a hard on is beyond my understanding. And the thought of a child molester becoming a father himself. Sometimes it makes me believe there is no God.
Why do so many child molesters exist and why doesn't the government just lock these people away for life.

I had an arguement with a prominent gentleman when he announced I was waiting in the weeds. I confronted him in private and he told me it was a compliment. I do not see it as such. I am wondering if he or myself have a convoluted view?

I know that if we miss out on REM dreaming we build up something called sleep debt and this must be recovered at some stage. People who have hypersomnia have decreased or absent REM and therefore sleep excessively but still feel tired. WHy exactly is REM important?

For example, you don't see many models and actors delving into comic books and anime, becoming janitors, or working at McD's.

And you don't see many Computer Scientists and Programmers stepping into the UFC Ring to box it out with the latest champion.

How do our looks determine our futures?...and should we change our looks if it's not who we wanna be? Do you personally know anyone who overcame their looks to be whatever they wanted to be?

I am trying to write a paper on teens who live in a constant state of turmoil, self created. I need to formulate my thoughts and gather ideas for this paper. I am thinking about teens who are constantly arguing with other people, engaging in high risk behavior, etc. Is it a function of narcissim? What is propelling this constant need to create a situation that brings the attention of others? Is it a reflection of bi-polar disorder? Symptomatic of something else like problems at home. Or is it just a cry for help. What does it mean when these patterns carry over into adulthood. Any thoughts? Thank you!

with almost everyone but I'm afraid to speak my mind because I want to be liked and I'm so afraid of confrontation. I don't have a problem with my husband or kids its just everyone else. I think those people with the stronger personalities can sense what I'm like and they go for the kill. I know there is a fine line because I don't want to be labeled a _itch. It is funny though when people are in a group they have more balls than when they are alone to be ugly to someone else.

Yes, we all disappear into our own spaces online, but does this mean that we communicate less with the outside world? When we were kids, were we any more communicative with other people than we are now?

In other words what makes people prejudice against others? What are the main factors. Can you quote me any psychological theories that can back your argument up? Is it all cause by environmental factors?

Example, the tv hit show 24, the Muslims are upset they are being used as terrorists on the show and they are afraid to go grocery shopping for fear of how people might react to them.

Is it right to propogate this type of thing on tv? That's only one example. I mean we can extent this to violence and sex and moral/social values etc...but my point is really how can you say on one hand we should behave/act this way, when on the other hand what we do and project in our media is totally the opposite?

How can we truly expect anyone, especially children to "read between the lines" of what is real and what isnt?

I had a dream once that about a male from a village that had powers to heal. They believed in many gods. They tricked the guy to climb a cliff to meet another village but they threw boulders on him. One crushed his leg. His parents told him not to use my powers because no one else had powers. He had a girlfriend, who he was in love with. he showed her he could heal himself. When he did, a yellow light came out of his hand when he was healing his leg, the girlfriend could also feel heat from the healing. The male was going to marry this girl, but their sun god's reign had come to an end and they needed to pick a new god from the villagers, I wonder who they picked. They picked the male with the healing, heat and yellow light power. As the ceremony started the male felt sad to leave his love, but she ran to join him, (a scene from star trek 1 the movie probably). I have never understood what the dream meant. I am a writer and sometimes my dreams come in story form. No secular websites.
