This is a broad question, but I am on my way to being 20 and feel like I still have a long way to go. I don't know what I should know to be an adult, and just feel bad about being an overgrown kid. Especially comes in the area of beliefs. I feel like I have to be told what is right or what to believe, and I'm not able to fend for myself.I don't know if this makes any sense, but if you can help, maybe give me a few tips on what you learned reaching maturity what exactly maturity means, I would be very satisfied.

You know how you are in class and understand a question and then get home and don't have a clue. That is what I am experiencing right now... I am in a college counseling course where we are studying different theories and these are the questions that i have to write a paper on.... can you simplify these for me? Thanks!!!



What relationship do you see between your own personality/style/voice and the basic tenets of the theories we've covered so far? Elaborate on those theories with which you resonate. Why do you think this is so? How do you see yourself using these theories in practice? How do you see yourself using these theories for self-understanding?

Thanks soooo much!!!!!

After a long night of unrest and constant waking up you will obviously proceed to yawn for most of the following day. And just as you are most tired you will be in a crowd or a room with a large group of people, who will do just sa you are (yawning of course)

My 11 year-old daughter beat my husband (who's 38 years-old with an IQ of 148) in several games of chess. Is it possible to get a rough estimate of her intelligence based on her chess abilities? If so, please tell me what her probable IQ is.

What are some of yours (or someone you know) that you don't mind sharing. I find that I tend to be overly critical of others...sometimes of people I don't even know.

i have zombie dreams. All the time. I wake up knowing I have to prepare for the coming of zombies. Its funny. I love zombie flicks.
But these dreams are so real. Everyone is different. Except that I never have my gun! I really think that the end is near. Zombies or government soldiers or UK army or f-ing green peace. I think its my fear of hostile takeover. I'm not a nut. Or a black helicoptor type person. It's just constant zombie dreams. They are starting to get not fun. Why do you think i have them?

The stone in my hand represents an emotion
and if I throw the stone into the water,
it creates a pattern
Our body consists of 66% water.
So a good fight is like a brick thrown into the water.
If you loose someone dear
it is an storm at sea to your body.
Your cells shape themselves like
the patterns the stone creates when it is thrown into the water.
You can not escape the stones being thrown into the water,
as they are like karma thrown into the ocean of samsara.
The endless pounding waves.
All the people in your life are like the stones
some small, some big.
You can't blame them for creating those patterns in your water.
Those patterns are for you to look, study, embrace, accept, liberate, love and detach from.

Since I was a young teenager like...11 - now I have this weird problem.. here are some examples..
* I would be sitting in my high school classroom and I'd stare at the door and then I'd imagine that the door would suddenly open and hit the student next to it. Or that it would some how open so fast that it would make a really loud noise....
* I would have constant thougths about accidents that could happen to me...like if I was doing something with sharp objects etc.. I'd imagine horrible scenes like those objects poking my eyes or eye and losing them. Or losing one of my limbs and being horrified. * and sometimes when I drive I get these crazy ideas...like say I imagine me suddenly changing lanes to the opposite direction and crashing. And I get scared that it may actually happen or that i'll do it and I try to forget it. * and when I am bymyself for a whole day or not having a lot of conversation I start having all these weird thougths...and like I need to talk or else i'll go crazy

say that you are the driver of the car....you are the only one in the car.......
you are the only caregiver of your child...there will be no one left if you pass on
you have been the only one there to meet your childs needs emotionally, financially...etc...to no fault of your own. (what if they are in some way disable and depend on you fully also)...
o.k. the question is this.........if you swerve to miss the child that has just walked into your lane, you will be killed, ( you will not miss semi-truck in other lane) leaving your child with absolutly no one but the state....and I mean no one..........
if you kill the child who has just walked into your cars path...well, we all know the answer to that one..
my question is this..........are you not just as responsible, if not more responsible for your own childs wellbeing???
I am not a monster, just want opinions........
keep in mind, you can add nothing...there is no hidden aunt ready to take your child...he/she will be all alone

I've been having troubles for the past week or so. I've always been a sort of 'depressed' person. I get these moods sometimes for no reason, where nothing will cheer me up. I've been better for about a year, but the past week, things have gotten worse. I've been having nightmares for the past week, to the point that I'm afraid of going to sleep. I can't tell anymore if I'm awake or dreaming. I'm upset - really depressed, with no reason to be. My life is completely on track. I have a fabulous fiance, I'm at a great school, pretty much I have nothing to complain about, but... I'm still unhappy. I started crying today for no reason. Sometimes, I just want to go to sleep and not wake up. Today I was commuting to work, and started thinking hard (i'm not going to though) about just crashing into the cement highway dividers, and how easy it would be. I don't like thinking this way. What's wrong with me?

I need guidance. I've been married a few years, and wife is lovely and smiley, and I
should be happy, but my life feels empty and not worth living. I've tried to distract
myself, try to dilute how I feel, try to twist my brain into feeling happy, but over
the last year, it gets worse and worse. My wife, I think, has grown uninterested in me
emotionally and is seeking everybody else in the world to communicate with but me, has
closed me off, and has told me that it's all normal. She's not happy with everything that
she gets and demands, and just makes me feel I'm the bad guy. She finally broke the news
to me that she wasn't a virgin when we were married and that has popped up in some of
my days to the point of bite-my-toung, images burned into my head, rage. She just says,
"sorry, but that was yesterday, we should move on, " but I don't think she realizes what
she took from me and what I'm left with. I'm finally convinced that I am the bad guy.
Everything in America, and the world, is a lie. People are fake, salesman are fake,
the president is fake, your relatives are fakes, your wife is a fake, and do-gooders
are fake. Adultry is encouraged on the internet, on TV, by "friends", by self, and
is rationalized to the point of being harmless anymore..so people don't have to face the
sin. I bought a $15 paper-shredder at
office depot and the dude looks me in the eyes and tells me I need a special lubricant
to keep the blades sharp. Everybody is silently programmed to robotically embrace
diversity to the point of giving away the american dream, which has been killed. I will
never own a house because, not because I can't afford it, but because I'm too proud to
let somebody lie to me and tell me it's worth it as they leave me with such a debt.
Lies. The president looks us in the eyes and, making the assumption we're dumb pieces
of crap, lies. People sell us paper-covered furniture. Now they're producing furniture
out of cow-**** (I'm serious), because the American people work hard and deserve the
cow-****. Children have as many rights as their parents, feminism reigns, not everyone
has access to flu vaccines, but Hey! you can buy five cell phones for a penny each.
People can't unplug themselves from screens of all kinds. They want and need social
connections but have to work overtime and are always on the run, corporations have
convinced them that cell phones and computers are suitable replacements for human contact.
I'm tired of life. This life, this society, this everything. My wife will never know
how much. My question is, for someone who is so wanting of a good life, but doesn't like
doctors, what do I do? I've said over and over I want pills, because I want happiness
and bliss for my wife, but I'm afraid therapy would be rough for me. I've grown into
such a hard-sell, re-programming me even at 25 years old, would be near impossible. I
just want pills.
