I don't really understand WHY this is happening to me, I only know that it is. I'm trying to understand why I keep thinking about my deceased father so much. I'm trying to understand myself and feel understanding my relationship and experience with him is key to knowing myself better. Regardless, as I'm getting older and older (I'm 17 now) I find myself thinking about him more and more. He died when I was almost four and throughout my childhood the fact that my father died was just something I knew. But 14 years later I think about him tons, miss him, feel angry towards people who wronged him, etc. Why?

Ok i mean i believe in some hypnosis but like this guy claims to be able to put people to sleep and make them forget their last name and forget how to count to 10. He can also make them move around and pretend to smell something. Then he can make them tell vivid stories about martians. This cant be real. Its at a school and they say they take 15 volunteers. I cant imagine someone would have powers over people like this.

I get anxiety and its really frustrating to stay calm when i feel the adrenaline pumping through me and the sinking feeling in my stomach, it just makes me feel overwhelmed and shaky. How can I stop this "fight or flight" response from happening?

This is only a small portion of what I have to know for my experimental psych test tomorrow. It's over 5 chapters so I was going to ask a question about a couple, but I figured I'd put them all since I don't really understand them.

1. confounding variable
2. content validity
3. construct validity
4. order effect
5. practice effect
6. instrumentation
7. pilot study
8. hawthorne effect
9. stratified random sampling
10. content analysis

To get a PhD in Psychology do you need a Masters degree first or will just a BA, or what about a BS?

do other things than what their consious mind wants to? For example: A person was overly, extremely mean to someone else. The person they were mean to no longer wants anything to do with the crazy jerk. The person who was being mean wants to talk to the other person and explain why they did what they did. In theory this would be very easy but when the mean person comes in contact with the other person, they seem to forget their plan and act irrationally and only end up making things worse.

Put more simply, why is it that sometimes people will have a goal but seem to keep shooting themselves in the foot?

People get emotionally attached to their cars, a bicycle, a couch, a chair, especially. These are objects a person can connect with on some level, helps them get somewhere, relaxing, special times in a special chair. Ok. So. Isn't a stove, something where you prepare very special meals for example, in the same category? If so, why do you never hear, Oh I couldn't get rid of that, it has too many good memories, etc. This is a real philosophical question, as nutty as it sounds. Thank you for trying.

I have always had trouble looking people in the eyes when talking with them, even with close friends I still have trouble doing so, I always look at the ground or something on the table etc.. to take focus off the eyes.. I feel rude doing this and disrespectful and want to change but when I try to look someone in the eyes I feel embarrassed and Uncomfortable, and I get really nervous around people that really stare at me when having conversations... How to I overcome this.. I'm not trying to hide anything and it really frustrates me not being able to make eye contact... and I have no-idea why I feel this way?? Does anyone else feel nervous or anything when making eye contact..

I have this intense fear of my neck being touched! It's the weirdest thing! I cant even wear turtle necks. I think its because I watch too many gross shows where someones neck gets sliced....*shiver*.... I cant even think about it I start freakin out and grabbing at my neck. It could also have something to do with my childhood and how people would always tickle me there (HATED it) or maybe I was hung in a passed live I really dont know....I have gotten a little bit better about the whole someone else touching my neck but then when I turn on the tv and there is some crime show on the murderer always goes for the neck and I always HAVE to change the chanel or leave the room because I get so terribly squimish anywhere else Im fine (I dont mind blood and guts I have watched many surgeries and have disected many things) If someone could please fill me in on this completly irrational and strange phobia of mine, I would be very grateful!

It's all in the question. I simply cannot stop crying!!!

2007-02-28 13:32:39 · 4 answers · asked by Hannah S 1

I spent years of my life without crying. My family always comments on my lack of emotion, but the truth is I am so emotional that sometimes I worry that I am not normal. I have always hid it well. I cried alone a lot. However a few years ago, a friend of my passed away and it seemed to unearth this wave of emotions in me, and now I cry for every little thing. I can't take critisism with out crying. I cry during any argument...and the crazy thing about that is that I never used to argue because I found it pointless. I am a big cry baby and I hate it. I am 28, and the boss of lots of people, and I fear this crying thing is gonna get in the way of how people veiw and respect me.
I need my tough skin back and it is not happening. Anyone have any suggestions? Also, my favorite passed time, and part time job is teaching and training in martial arts and kickboxing. (Actually, it is one of the only places my feeling can get hurt and I don't cry.) So, I do have a stress reliever.
