Psychology - March 2007

I hate writing essays, and I've had Word open since I woke up at 9AM. I keep getting distracted, and end up walking around the house. It's now 1AM, and I've got two paragraphs. How do I quit procrastinating?

The environment you were born into,

2 choices

1. You would be born into a poor family

2. You were born into a wealthy family

Knowing everything you know now, which would you choose?
Please comtemplate both scenarios before answering. Which life would you want and what do you think would make you better person.

I am on a forum trying to get help for various sleep related disorders (primarily sleepapnea and periodic limb disorder)that have lead to many syptoms like depession and about 15 other things

When I went to the site about two weeks ago for the first time and was contemp[lating suicide (I am OK now) due to this and a number of other things, people were helpful. I started a thred about people sharing what they have learned from alternative and natural therapies that people might want to research, try, or use to compliment their treatment.

I immediately started getting attacked but about 5 people, When they started criticising my intelligence, spelling, character traits and tons of things in a very cruel and mean way, I stuck up for myself and now they seem madder than ever in their vigilence to attack me.

I eventually told them I was very vulnerable, dealing with a lot of personal problems, crying from their posts,. and essentially begging them to stop and if they didn't

I'm an 18.5 year old high school graduate although I feel like I cheated my way through high school because I was put into special education classes for various reasons. Now I have a part-time job with good pay but I'm afraid to go to college because I feel as if I'm not educated enough. I also have a severe social anxiety disorder which conflicts with my daily life so it's really difficult for me to even hold my job right now. I'm not looking for any sort of pity, but I feel like I totally screwed up my whole life. I just got my driver's license a month ago and I'm still reluctant to drive because I feel like I'll make a dumb mistake and get myself or somebody else killed yet being driven around by your younger sister doesn't give you good self-esteem. It's not how I wanted to live my life at this age. I don't know how I can fix this. Maybe I'm not smart enough to know. To top it off, I'm very unattractive and I'm gay. Am I lost cause? Should I just give up?

I and my best friend (we are both males) are sitting on top of a four-story bed... then there was an earthquake... His part of bed went down, while mine remain standing. I was in a hurry to catch him. He was just staring and trying to reach my hands while he went down.

So for example, today:
I had eaten 80% of my reccomended daily calories for the day by say 2:30....(most of these were from unhealthy roasted sugary nuts)
i already felt like a fatty
then of course i was forced to eat dinner and was pushed over my caloric limit for the day
but then i got hungry so i ate about 3/4 of a carton of plain vegan cream cheese
---now i am WAY over my caloric limit for the day---
now i feel SO gross and fat and like i want to go on some crazy rapid weight loss diet to make me feel better about my self
i also always say that "tomorrow, i will cut calories and do better" but i never do

In my opinion, it seems so because the left hemisphere of the brain is more logic, while the right hemisphere is more creativity and imagination.
Is it true?

I'm so negative about things and feel like I will fail at everything I do. Will someone give me ways that I can just relax and be more positive about things around/about me. About my relationships with people, my health, school, and job. I want to make my life better, I am happy but I'm soooo negative and I want to change that around. Please help me!!!

I have a boyfriend I have been dateing six years. He has asked me to marry him. Its is long distance right now and has been for a few years. I called him to night and told him that while i was out i had a drink spilled on me (Just rasberry Lemonaide) he got mad and was like "Oh! Now your flashing waiters. i'm gonna go watch my movie now" so I was like "Call me after the movie?" and he was like "maybe, maybe not." do you think that I desereved the comment? I am just wondering if he is overreacting, or not.

Am i the only one who thinks that most people are overly dramatic about things? I'm not sure about the best way to explain this but does it seem like people act like most situations are a much bigger deal than they are. Like they read to much into most things, maybe to make their lives more interesting?

Does anyone know what i mean?

If u were constantly suppressed for being different abd if u were targeted all ur life?? change to fit in or revolt back and keep ur old identity??


id rather evolt....I cant let someone who cant respect d fact tht im who i am change me......i am what i am, love me or hate i dnt give a damn...and infact, if u do the latter ull be d one in pain.lol....coz inflicting extreme psychological damage on someone DOES infact build up capacities to a max level, and itll be used against the exploiter and his kind..i still dnt get whts wrng with it. such ppl really dnt make a difference with their presence, and all they do is make life miserable 4 us....so y shudnt we like,...jus strike back??id rather strike back, show him wht he has done to me and mentally imprint the amount of damage tht he has done on ppl like me and leave him with so much of guilt tht hed be sorry tht hes alive...ha....psychological warfare is pretty much better,
sum say tht forgving d person and making himashamed of

I have to have a clinical interview with a psycholigist for a very important job (I've already taken a modified from of the MMPI-2, which Im sure she'll be referencing). My question is this... is there anything I can od to make a good impression? What do psychologists look for anyway in that department? Obviously, appearance is important as I was told to dress up, so this has to be more than just mind games, but they can't be as easy to impress as normal people, right?
