Psychology - March 2007

I'm sorry to ask such an ugly question on Y!A, but I don't know of anyone personally who I could ask. I had some trouble with a drunk guy about a month ago (not rape, tg, but it messed me over pretty well anyway) - and the after-effects are confusing as anything. I'd love to hear from someone who's been through something similar. Were you angry? Did you feel like you owed the person anything? Did you want to talk to them about it? Or anything else different.

Thank you for any input - I really appreciate it.

I am constantly so worried about work and right now and since last night(today was my day off and I was thinking about it ALL day) I have been worried about something that happened at work. (a mistake that could possibly be my fault)..how do I relax and stop worrying or at least put the issue at the back of my mind at least until the next day that I work and it all gets sorted out (i'm off tmrw too) so that tomorrow won't be a day wasted by worrying myself sick to the point where all I can do is think about it and chainsmoke...? help, guys

First off: don't give me that "emotionally detached" internet dream dictionary entry. It doesn't apply to me.

My most common type of dream is one about zombies taking over the world. I've had them since high school (I'm in college/uni now). Most times I (or someone else--last night it was Vin Diesel, haha) am locked up some place with zombies either surrounding the area or chasing me. I usually have some sort of weapon but it's rare I use it. I usually run away or hide.

Zombies scare me...a lot, even if my dreams about them can be funny at times. They're one of my biggest fears. Yet I don't watch horror movies very often, so I don't think these have anything to do with my dreams. I should also note that I have anxiety. Could this just be a manifestation of my anxiety? Or is it just what's going on in my life? Or both?

Another note: I get sleep terrors too, and I'm afraid one day I'll "wake up" to zombies in my room. Please help me figure this out.

Last week I fell asleep on a bus and woke up on a train. My wallet was gone, but all my cash, credit cards, and ID were left in my pocket. I asked people sitting near me how I got on the train, and of course no one knew anything. Some said I was already on the train when they got on. How can you explain this phenomenon?

I need some advice on how to come across to people as confident - without having to resort to alcohol etc. I'm 28, have heaps of qualifications, have travelled lots. However, i'm still a nervous wreck when dealing with people! I feel inadequate, shy, stupid, etc. I'm constantly worrying if I am good enough as a professional as as a human being. I am beginning to hate myself for not being able to overcome this (believe me, I have tried. I dont know what else to do! - ive tried counselling, alcohol(!) - I know, stupid?! Does anyone else go through this? Or do you have advice? I'm in despair!! (i'm trying to apply for my 'dream' job at the moment but keep flopping at interviews as i'm not confident enough, though I know I have the skills)

I am a 25 yrs. old male and ENFP. Strong believer in Christianity.
Ever since I can remember I have always been slower than other people. Although I have an above average IQ, I have lacked motivation and not given my all to anything.
- In gym sports, I would be in last place in long distance races. (I am average weight and size)
- At work I would be one of the slowest on the staff and often disorganized.

In general, deep down I feel like "I don't care."

On a day to day basis, I would not appear to have any issues. I am generally a happy and optimistic person.

My older brother has had a rough past year. All three of his closest, best friends were killed, and his gf of around 2 years left him without given reason this past week and won't return his phone calls. Today he spent most of his time at his friends' graves, which upsets me because I'm really worried if he has the courage to handle all of this. I can tell he has low self-esteem/worth and he has lots of pent-up inner anger. We're not too close but I want to help in some way. I want to do whatever I can to cheer him up and inspire him to look toward the future and not dwell in the past. Any advice? I'm thinking of casually leaving little quotes and stuff around where he'll see them and telling him if he ever needs someone to talk to I'm here...but that's all I've got so far. Thanks in advance!
