Psychology - February 2007

I read that the primary purpose of thinking was to abolish thinking. I suppose I've never stopped to consider such a thing. Your thoughts?

To start, I know that there is a lot of misery in this world, and people who have much less than me. I am not wealthy, spoiled and ignorant. I have a real problem changing my mentality to focus on being happy.
I have both a bachelor's and master's degree, a great job and career path, a wonderful fiance, beautiful place to live, great car, etc. I'm usually broke after taking care of loans and bills, so I don't get to go out much. I'm not bragging-I'm a pretty humble person.
Last night, my fiance told me he was thinking of leaving me because I'm miserable all the time. Of course, that shocked me and I told him I felt so much pressure to plan our future and basically become a money-making-machine that it was making me miserable.
I can't afford therapy or meds--I'm certain there is another way to flip my mentality and focus on the here and now. But how? Any suggestions? Please don't joke, I am trying to improve so I don't lose the love of my life. I'm pretty depressed and suicidal...

When I was about 12 or so, I bought the smashing pumpkins "pisces iscariot" album and I always thought that billy corgan's solo performance of the fleetwood mac classic was one of the best songs (and performances) ever. but then the dixie chicks went and did a totally lethargic version that has made the song well known, and everyone thinks that its a dixie chicks original. Now, if you play the older versions, people say, oh, why would they cover that awful dixie chicks song!? whadayou' think?

Should we maintain eye contact thorough out the conversation regardless to whomever we speak to? I mean doesn't it feel weird? Especially while talking with women...

War of the Nations



What is with all the violence?
Doesn’t every country have a chance?
To try and fix the wrong they’ve done
Instead of fighting it with a gun

So many people have died
Making peace no one has tried
We need to try and be friends
And with each other’s wounds we’ll cleanse

All the pain and suffering is getting too strong
I’m not sure the innocent can hold on too long
We are ripping families apart
All the bullets are penetrating like live darts

I believe in helping restore another place
But all this confusion has caused us a wild goose chase
No one remembers why we are fighting
All the suicide bombers are now igniting

They think all they need is a perfect race
I don’t think that we will be able to change their ways
They have taught their children that the thing to do is hate
Change them now? No it’s way too late!

rest of poem on details

heres the situation:
a person gives another person some "heartfelt" advice, but that person who gave the advice treats the person whom they gave the advice negatively soon after; in other words, they tell you how you can "change your life for the better", but then the next day (or whenever) they start bullying you, talking down, and essentially tearing down all of the positive things they told you to do previously? I know that they would be considered a hypocrite, but is there a more specific terminology or even mental condition that you'd call a person like this?

I have tried but I always seem to try and figure out the motive behind a question or which school of thought they have trained under etc as such I challenge the process even though I do believe that there is a benfit to be gained. As such I implicitly undermine the process...is this a common issue?

Do you ever ask yourself that? I just pulled yet another all-nighter... I'm so fed up with sleep lately. It just seems like a waste of time. I'd rather be awake and living life.

If you could have any device; any toy, tool, gadget, whatever whether it exists of not, what would that thing be?
IOW, I wish I had ......
...a telephone that I could put in my pocket and use anywhere.

What is it that _you_ want?
