Hi,
I am 23 years old and live in India.I am an Engineering student. I Drink about 2-3 times a month..not more than a few drinks.
My parents are completely against it. About a year ago, I was drinking at home and my mom caught me red handed and I was in such a shock that till today, I wonder what happened after that.Amnesia I guess.. (it was taken that seriously)

Must be because of the Shock!!
My point is that Here in India, Most families consider Drinking a crime or something..
Is it really that bad? Should things Change?

ps. Please dont laugh at my question.We follow a totally different culture,Although the basic human values are the same...

I just woke up from this really awkward dream I had (probably brought on from too much drinking last night), and for some reason I feel so confused right now. It isn't a normal "hung over" feeling at all, and in fact I really feel perfectly fine from that standpoint. But I can't get my thoughts together, and in general I just feel strange. Is that a normal symptom after a lucid dream?

(and yea, the dream was about this world, but parallel...and instead of my town being called Fayetteville, AR...it was Volleyball, RA. Yea...Volleyball...)

make adjustments for yourself so that you don't turn out (a generalizing, racist, backstabbing, closed-minded, druggy, drunk, woman abuser, all around self-serving jackass) and then you're all alone with nothing in common with most of your family. What now??

Is a person who tries to better himself or herself lost in a case like this?

would the be better suited in first person as in "I like" or in second person as in "You like." Such as "You are awesome" vs. "I am awesome." or would you have to use both, for it to be effective?

I've been venturing out to date a bit, after years, but feel like I lead a double life.
I'm 44, single parent, and a med.professional. Despite unavoidable circumstances, I'm still ashamed at being in the situation I'm in. I've been reluctant to share this with some friends and especially dates.

I've worked since age 14. I guess my identity is largely my career. I was injured at work,and thrown into the work comp nightmare 'system'. Much discrimination

You get to pick one Dr. I have a complicated condition he admits he doesn't know how to treat Wk Cp refused to let me see the Dr who said he could! Both are Pain/rehab Drs but do very different things.
My condition got worse as I waited, I developed more problems,and went broke

Hired an atty to fight to see this new Dr, and rush things along. That took 18 mo. to be approved! They'd rather have me sit home receiving a check (<1/3 my salary).
Took 3mo.to get appt; they'd sent no records! He could do nothing.

With the advent of globalization and a perpetual thirst for material goods spiritual values are on the wane, stress and dissatisfaction is on the rise. Families are breaking up into fragmented units of labour for the economic treadmill as families become unglued. Is it a matter of time before Bharat is fully globalised and we begin to have our celebrity killers that open fire at random at public places with automatic weapons unable to keep up with the pressure of modern times.

We all have problems in life but we never see the good things FULLY. If we don't have a good job we never seem thankful enough that we have A job. If you're ill but not hospitalised we're never thankful that it's not that bad but moan about feeling unwell as if it couldn't be worse knowing that it could. Just two examples of how we're never satisfied. Ok, it's a bit generalised to say all of us would be like that in those specific situations but you get my drift I hope.

I think generally we're never happy with our own lot in life and always think others have it better. We're full of the 'why me?' as if it would be ok if it was someone else and as if we never have anything to be grateful for ourselves.

Why are we like this do you think?

I am a 40 year old married man. I have been trying to fight sexual compulsions from my teen years on. I have done some unsavory things in the past. I have worked in office environments with some very attractive co-workers and that is what keeps causing me problems. I start staring at a pretty girl, start thinking of them in various clothes or nude, engaged in sex acts with me or other women in the office or both. I become obsessed and have the thoughts of doing illicit things - my heart races. I have acted on some of these impulses like accidentally touching a ladies butt, and other things.
Email is getting me in trouble lately. I find myself writing the emails telling the girls exactly what I am thinking or did and kind of playing around with the send key and while this is happening I have my pulse quickening while picturing there reaction.
As you may have guessed this has resulted in problems. I by accident sent one lastjobto coworker and was fired.

Ok I suffer from Agoraphobia. Does anyone have any ideas on how this can be dealt with a little bit easier? I was a waitress my whole life until this hit me about four years ago.

I've been told by a close friend that I scare them. Yeh, that hurts. We were messing about and I put him in a wrist lock, he said ouch, your hurting me but for some reson i carried on for a bit. It's hapened before too.
Personality wise, I'm always on guard. I don't like to let people close although once we're going out then it's ok.
Basically this is playing havok with my love life. Guys are scared of me and even the brave ones are stone-walled. What can I do? How can I be a more trusting person? How can I sort out what seems to be an unconcious agression?
Help me, please.

She is a very sweet young woman and works hard at her job, but she doesn't seem to grasp certain concepts and she makes assumptions that are really incorrect, and the result is she gives wrong answers to the sales people I work with, who then come to me and ask me why? I am constantly having to make excuses for her inability to supply accurate information.

I've tried to take care of it by having a one-on-one chat with her and explaining how to find correct information, and I've pointed out certain examples of where she misunderstood information given to her, and in some cases for less severe issues I've left notes on her desk as reminders. She works for a different manager than I do, and I haven't gotten either of them involved, but I think I might have to if she keeps entering incorrect information. Is there anything else I can do to fix this situation?

If someone is talking about something in their past, and they regret it, what are some ways they would show the regret, i.e body language, voice tone, etc.? I am not asking for ways to see if they are lying.
