Psychology - February 2007

weird huh? i just wanna know if are there any possibilities that a person might have three of those? cause i know someone... i repeat! know someone who has a major depression and adhd... and now he's acting so paranoid. he's so conscious everytime he's outside (not like what he looks like!) and so curious on everyone's thoughts about him. but when he finds out, he over reacts! he breaks down (cause of his depression) and he gets so angry! (cause of adhd) i really wanna know cause i really feel sorry for him... :(



answers would be nice......

but comments? opinions? well... do i have to give a damn? :)

I posted a few questions earlier about my relationship and most of the answers told me that I needed to back off my boyfriend, stop analyzing everything, stop being so available, stop being needy and clingy BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW. PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO STOP BEING THIS WAY!!!! THANK YOU.

At home I feel sad al the time. I don't know why. Sometimes my stomach hurts, just after I eat, as If I'm hungry. I feel like crying sometimes, I just don't know why. When I'm at school, or when I'm not so lonely, I feel ok.

I feel like I want to die. Around the evening, and at night, I feel as there is going to be something wrong. I just don't know what. I feel scared.

Eating doesn't always help me with my problems, but all suggestions might be helpful.

A lot of personal ads these days list "thunderstorms" as a turn-on. Why thunderstorms? When I think of thunderstorms, I think of loud booms or lightning crackling. Yeah, it's cool and fun to cozy up to, but a "turn-on"?

How do you know for sure if someone is really a nympho/nympomaniac, sex addict, or just someone who really enjoys having sex? Is there a list of characteristics or criteria that determines which category a person fits into? This is a real question and I would like to know professional answers/replies. Thanks.

I want to practice as a clinical psychologist. I have a Masters in experimental psychology and I really did not enjoy doing research. I also don't think I want to be a professor. A PsyD seems like a good choice for me but it is expensive (I'm in Canada now and would come to the states for it) and I want to be sure I can work in clinical psychology just as well with one as with a Phd. Any advice? Thanks.

Sarah was originally called Sarai (שָׂרַי / שָׂרָי , Standard Hebrew Saray, Tiberian Hebrew Śāray / Śārāy) and was married to and lived with her husband, then called Abram (אברם) in the city of Haran. When God told Abram to leave his homeland and journey to an unknown land (later identified as Canaan), Sarai accompanied him. However, when they arrived they were met with a famine, and decided to take refuge in Egypt. Fearing that Sarai's beauty would put his life in danger if their true relationship became known, Abram proposed that she pass as his sister.

As Abram had feared, Sarai was taken by Pharaoh, who rewarded Abram richly on her account. However, God struck Pharaoh and all his house with severe plagues, after which Pharaoh suspected the truth. He censured Abram and bade him to take his wife and depart. According to the classic Jewish commentaries, Pharaoh was nevertheless impressed with Abram's righteousness, and sent his own daughter, Hagar, to be a handmaid to Sarai.

While God promised Abram that he would yet be a father of nations, Sarai remained childless. To help her husband fulfill his destiny, she offered her Egyptian handmaid Hagar to him as a concubine. Hagar became pregnant immediately, and began to despise her mistress. Sarai bitterly upbraided her husband, and Abram responded that she should do with her handmaid as she deemed best. Sarai's harsh treatment of Hagar forced the handmaid to flee to the desert, where she encountered an angel who announced that her children would be numerous and urged her to return to her mistress. After Hagar returned, she bore Abraham a son whom he named Ishmael.

Afterwards God changed their names to Abraham and Sarah to help them fulfill their new destiny as progenitors of the future nation of Israel. In Hebrew, the name Avram means "exalted father" or, alternately, "father of Aram," the country where Abraham was born. Sarai means "my woman of high rank", referring to her relationship with her husband. Now their names would be Avraham, meaning "father of many," and Sarah, meaning "woman of high rank". Then God sent three angels in the guise of men to inform the couple of the impending birth of Isaac. Abraham laughed with joy at the news, as he would be 100 years old at the time of the birth, but Sarah laughed with doubt, as she would be 90 years old and the ways of women had long since ceased for her.

Abraham next moved to Gerar, where Sarah was again taken by the ruler to become his wife after she claimed Abraham was her brother. Abimelech, however, was warned by God in a dream not to touch Sarah. When Abimelech reproved Abraham for the deception, Abraham justified himself by explaining that Sarah was the daughter of his father but not of his mother (Gen. 20:1-12).

Immediately after this incident, Sarah bore a son, Isaac. God instructed Abraham to name him after the laughter which Sarah had made when her son's birth was prophesied by the angel.

According to Rashi, who lived thousands of years later, people questioned whether the 100-year old Abraham really was the father of the child, as he and Sarah had lived together for decades without conceiving. Instead, people gossiped that Abimelech was the true father. For this reason, according to Rashi, God made Isaac's features exactly the same as Abraham's, so no one could claim a different paternity.

As Isaac grew up, his older half-brother Ishmael began to mock him, and Sarah demanded that Abraham send away both Hagar and Ishmael to protect Isaac. Some believe that Sarah's shunning, and the hard life of exile that followed, angered Ishmael and that this is one of the causes of strife between Islam and Christianity, as Ishmael became a prophet. Years later, at the death of Abraham, Isaac and Ishmael came together again to bury their father in the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron (Gen. 25:9).

Sarah died in Kiryat Arba (קרית ארבע), or Hebron, at the age of 127 years. Her death prompted Abraham to purchase a family burial plot, and he approached Ephron the Hittite to sell him the Cave of Machpelah (Cave of the Patriarchs). Ephron demanded an exhorbitant price of 400 pieces of silver, which Abraham paid in full. The Cave of Machpelah would eventually be the burial site for all three Jewish patriarchs and three of the four matriarchs—Abraham and Sarah, Isaac and Rebekah, and Jacob and Leah. Rachel was buried on the road to Bethlehem.

No further reference to Sarah is found in the Hebrew canon, except in Isa. Ii. 2, where the prophet appeals to his hearers to "look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that bare you".

I still want to be with him, I don't want to be without him but I need to stop loving him SO much. I need to know how to be without him without missing him so much. I need to know how to stop wanting to be touched, kissed, held by him all the time....PLEASE HELP!!! I have talked to him about it and we have decided we just love differently but that doesn't mean we don't want to be together....we do. I think he wishes I would ease up to but I just don't know how. HELP. THANKS!!

I would really like some sincere advice:
My b/f and I have been together for a year now and have been living together for the last 3 months. We fell in love faster than I ever have before; he is 15 years older than me which has never become a problem. We are on the same mental level, everyone says I am very mature for my age (I’m 28) The parts where we are different are; One: I am very inquisitive, I like to ask a lot of questions about everything, he is not at all. Two: I am very loving, affectionate and I like to give attention & of course to receive it as well, he isn’t that way often, he has to be in the right mood. Three: We love differently, I know he loves me as I truly love him but sometimes I get my feelings hurt because he doesn’t love me the way I “think” he should. Again, I know he loves me but he loves differently than I love. I am the type of person, I guess some would call me clingy but say for example if he was going to work one day and I was not, I would call

I just had a birthday on Monday and people kept saying say goodbye to 19. I thought it was a sad thought that I wouldn't be certain ages ever again.

If I had to redo my life I would, just to remember, not to forget, and to live with more experiences.

Would you start over again? Why, why not?

What age do you want to see again?
What was your worst age?
Why do you like that age,
Why do you hate the other age?

Personally I don't have a favorite age, because I don't think I have experienced enough, but if I had to pick it would be 19. The age I don't want is MIDDLE SCHOOL AGE! WORST TIME OF MY LIFE!

how do you be happy? and when you think you're happy, how come it still doesn't feel like it's enough? can you be happy with someone? i always thought you can't make someone happy, they have to be happy by themselves but thats not how everyone else thinks. My life is so hectic right now (university, working, boyfriend, family, etc) and I don't know how to keep myself happy.
