Psychology - February 2007

Question about psychology-
What is it called when you remember events more clearly because of emotion. (i.e. you don't really remember what you had for dinner last night, but you would remember if your parents had a big argument.)
Thanks!

For example, if I am making a decision within the dream, or something happens, I sometimes think, within my dream 'Oh well, but it doesn't matter because this is not real, it is only a dream'.
Is this dreaming? Or is it a state of conciousness? Is it possible to be conciously aware of things within a dream?

I stutter and I think its the worst. People think you are mentally challenged, they won't hire you and make fun of you.

If a therapy patient accepted a referral, to see a psychiatrist, what would be expected concerning the existing therapy versus the new doctor? What transitional issues would arise? What sources of anxiety are typically encountered?

Also, can a psychiatrist violate the individual sovereignty of non-threatening, law-abiding, rational patient? In other words, have force be used in order to enforce his agenda?

I've never really liked myself all that much, or felt like I'm really worth the time and resources it takes to keep me alive. I've never seriously contemplated suicide but sometime's it's seemed like the only logical option. Comparing what it takes to keep me alive to what I'm giving back, I'm not doing much good to anyone.

In general, I always feel stupid, and I'm getting really paranoid about everyone around me. Every day I have this nagging feeling that they're going to realize I'm not worth their time and abandon me.

I also have a bad relationship with my bipolar twin sister. We share a small room, and I have no personal space. She's unstoppably nasty to me 24/7.

I've tried finding an outlet, but I have no talent for anything. I can't write, I'm a terrible musician, I can't draw, I can't dance. All I do is play video games, and I even suck at that. I'm not good at letting my emotions out, and I don't want to. It's pointless, and it would only waste more time and resources.

A sixth grade art project consist of a child creating and marketing a product.
The child creates a suicide kit in which comes with an instruction book of numerous ways to kill yourself as well as objects. For safety purposes the child puts in a fake gun, fake pills, fake knife and some rope.
What would you think of this child?
After talking to the child you discover that it seems the child has no thoughts of suicide and just meerly thought a kit would be a good idea for those truely wanting to kill themself.
Would you be alarmed, would you refer for counseling?

Since there are so many ways people can avoid dealing with others due to the increasing reliance on technology...has it created a generation of self-obsessed people?

First, I'm not looking for stupid answers. Just some honest help. My girlfriend and I were talking about sexual history and I became disturbed by something in hers. I want to point out that I'm totally in love with her...this shouldn't affect us. But it is. I'm having trouble dealing with it. I know it's shallow, but I can't help that. That's why I'm asking. If you've experienced something like this, how'd you get over it? I want to get over it and I need to. Thanks for any help.
