I was told by my psychologist that I don’t show emotions… that when I am sad and depressed I look happy as it is hidden he said. My girlfriend tells me the same thing because I like to joke around… but she told me she can’t tell the difference if I am playing around or when I am angry because I don’t show emotions. How can a person not show emotions?

When Im interested in a person, I can sense when there coming sometimes or when there going to be absent. It feels like there telling me something.

For example: If I don't see someone at work or at class. I might sense that they might be coming late. Im like Ill probably see them when they come in, and it has happen I saw them and I make eye contact with them. If they are not coming, before they arrive Im like there not coming. They did not come.

Im also very good at reading people gestures, lets just say Im very attentive when Im around people.

Motivation is a means of creating or launching an action but without direction. Confidence is supported by knowledge, decipline and courage can provide a direction to motivation to hit target.

I find myself to be a charasimatic person and feel that people would be better off following me. I do not want to start a group around religon. I would be interested in my followers focusing on Earth bound pleasures. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Well, as most of you know it's Sunday night/Monday morning right now. I was outside smoking (unhealthy I know) getting ready to watch Family Guy, and I decided to multi-task and watch Family Guy while trying to find Dexatrim success stories.

Needless to say, I found the complete opposite. People's friends dying, high blood pressure, etc. The reason why I decided to find some stories is because I've been nagging my mother to buy me Dexatrim for about a week, give or take, and Thursday night, she finally did. Friday I took one before work (3:30-10:00 EST) and took one at about 1:30 PM. Around 5, I noticed my hands were shaking uncontrollably (spelling?). It was even worse because I work at a pharmacy as a Pharmacy Technician, so I have to write prescriptions for about 3.5 hours out of my work day.

I kept taking it because I figured if anything happens, I'm a strong fighter, because my sign is Leo and deep down, to me, that means 'don't give up', and I even gotta tattoo of it to...

I've known this friend for 3 years and she has always been a bit off with me. She had a cold a few weeks back and so I suggested she get some cold remedies. After a few days went by, she rang to ask me why I hadn't asked her how her cold was! (As if I've nothing else in my life!) Then I had a burglary at Christmas (a bad one) and she told me how lucky I was because she had one about 30 years ago, where the burlgars supposedly had knives on them (even though she never met them). So am I to assume to my friend that I'm lucky, because my burlgars may or may not have had knives on them? (I didn't see my burlgars either). I just don't know what to make of all this.

I am 24/male. I get angry a lot. I often have nasty and long fights with my dearest friend due to my hot-tempered nature. There are wounds from my past that don't heal up and keep my mind agitated all the time. Since, she is my closest friend I often pour out all my frustrations on her. I also verbally abuse her which hurts her.

However, it is not right to hurt my friend because of all this. She says, I am full of self-pity. She has been nice enough to forgive me every time.

1. Should I give up my friendship with her because I am causing a lot of pain to her? Probably, she will be happier if I leave her alone and never talk to her. What do you suggest? But this will be too difficult for me to bear. Her friendship means a lot to me.

2. How can I remove self-pity? I don't want to blame others for my frustrations. I want to take the responsibility of my frustrations on myself and I want to let this feeling of self-pity and frustrations go away from my mind.

I need some advice.

I use to work in the IT area making very good money. I did something that I knew would likely get me fired (it did). Since then, I have moved into an area that pays me 4.5 times less than I was making before.

I have been in this new field (not IT related) for 6 years. I am finally fed up and want to get back into IT, but am scared to death of my lack of exposure over the last 6 years. I feel as though I have nothing to offer.

These thoughts are giving me a phobia of not wanting to apply for jobs becasue I think it will be a waist of time and that I will not be able to handle the interview.

I would appreciate any comments, as I can't figure out what the heck is going on with me.

what do i do for a living can be either secular or sacred. the chice in mine. the kind of work i do is not important. i can do anything in a way that glorifies you, father A worker in the humblest of jobs is just capable of demonstrating your beauty as one in the most exalted of positions. .a tiny bit of your beautyis reflected in my work.

I have been meditating for one and a half year. I am less stressed now and worrying less. But my main motive for meditating was to get rid of laziness and gain will power. But I could not get any result in this. I am meditating for about half an hour daily by observing my thougts without any attachment. I am interested in Vipassana meditation. I realise that meditation can do wonders but I want to know if I have to be patient for getting rid of my laziness or is it that I am not meditating in a proper way.

Does anyone agree with it and do you think it works, apparently think good thoughts about yourself and affirm it and wonderful things will happen to you. your life is based on what you think about yourself. you attract what you think on how you perceive it.

My boyfriend has severe OCPD. For those of you who are familiar with OCPD, there's no need for me to go into detail.

What support groups are there for people like me - not the person who has the disorder - but the person who loves someone with the disorder?

I'm looking for tips and advice on dealing with his OCPD. I get so frustrated with him and often feel like he and I fuel each other's fire. Now that the disorder has been recognized, I feel I owe it to he and I both to help ease some of our stresses.

Please don't suggest treatment for him - it's just not going to happen! (Sucks, I know!) That's why I'm asking for support systems for family and friends of people with OCPD.

If you can supply a link, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thanks!
