I had a dream about this guy who I used to be friends with in 5th grade (I'm in 7th grade) and I used to be friends with him and had a small crush on him? But then he became my enemy and he recently is in my class. Now I have tons of dreams with him in it and one was with kissing him? What does this mean? I don't still have a crush on him.

Not so long ago, a car was a Holden – or a Ford. A vacuum cleaner was a Hoover. And milk was just – milk.

Now our choices have exploded.

From mobile phone plans to mortgages, choice is the mantra of our modern economy. If some choice is good, more must be better.

But do you ever wonder if it’s getting out of hand? Could too much choice actually make you ill?

People in my grammar school were just ugh....I mean, backstabbing girls and conceited fake people....I guess my experiences made me become more cynical but more reserved. I don't know, after grammar school, I'm more quiet around people and I have social problems. I suffered verbal abuse and practical jokes in grammar school and I'm trying not to let that happen again in high school. Doesn't help when my family is constantly badgering me about weight, grades, school, college, SATS, how ugly I am, and stuff like that. I'm fine, actually, I'm not fine, I'm miserable.....I often have suicidal thoughts and I hate being in a social environment

People here are blowing this WAY out of proportion. I have NEVER spend much time much less the night at James’ house since he moved back here. I certainly didn’t plan on falling asleep at his house. He had broken up with his girlfriend 3 days earlier and asked me to keep him company once I got there. I FELL ASLEEP! I’m an incredibly deep sleeper which is why I didn’t get up after a few hours. I woke up covered by a blanket on James’ sofa and when I saw the dozens of missed calls and voicemails I had I rushed home. I’ve never cheated on anyone and neither has James. My husband and him simply don’t get along because my husband is convinced James wants me back which is just crazy. My husband is a dentist and dated on of his assistants during an off period in those 3 year who he still works with today and I have no problem with that.

Why is it that when someone asks a question about depression, the answers are always telling them to seek a psychiatrist and get on some type of medication? Why do we feel the need to disempower people by telling them that this CANNOT be overcome with their own willpower, but they need some type of assistance besides themselves to be cured?

That subject line was the best way I can think of to describe what I do, 18-22 hours a day. And I'm curious to know if there are any kind of clinical diagnoses associated with this widespread phenomenon.

My entire life, I've made up stories centered around fiction that I have read, or seen on TV, or seen in movies. Just about my only memories from early childhood are of sitting in the sandbox making up stories about Spider-man. A little later, it was Star Wars. Then it was Star Trek, for almost a decade. Then X-Men, Buffy, Angel, HP, Stargate, Daredevil, and back to Spider-man.

This consumes my life. I read the stories obsessively, then get my own stories in my head (increasingly-dramatic stories as I get older, I've found), and fiddle with them for hours on end. I don't want to do anything else. I participate in discussion forums about the characters, and get upset if I see anything out of character, because I need to believe they are real. I cry when bad things happen to them.

This has nothing to do with popularity. I know it sounds rather dumb, but how can you become that person. Not only in looks but it actually life. Life, become them, not just look like or act like them. This sounds immature, but are there people who believe in this, or vodoo, or anything? (no silly answers..please)

My boyfriend (17) is living with his mother and his little sister. His parents divorced when he was about 7 or 8 and ever since, he has held a deep-seated hate for both his mother and his father. As of now, he has about 6 months until he turns 18 and can move out, but he's feeling desperate and doesn't think he can deal with living at home anymore. His mother never treats him very well and from an outside point of view she doesn't seem to care about him very much...how can he overcome this without taking drastic measures?
As of now, he wants to leave and just run away from it all...his grandmother lives close and he's thinking about living there until he turns 18 and can buy his own place. So far what I've told him is that maybe the best thing to do is stay where he is so things don't get complicated...and when he turns 18 do what he will. I told him to just find something that makes him happy and to think about it every time his mom does something he's angry about. Will this work?

He's an only child and grew up spoiled without consideration to anyone's feelings but his own - he's in his 50's and still throw temper tantrums if he can't get his way or things are out of his control - he will yell and threaten to become violent.

He gets over - involved in people's business and doesn't realize he how overbearing he is. He will go through everything in my room (without consideration that you don't snoop through anyone's things) just to find what he was looking for. He'll reorganize completely my CD collection because that's what he "wants to do" and is "right"; even though i strongly oppose

he is OBSESSIVE and i want him to stop - how?

and don't tell me to talk to him because it's not going to work...
and please explaint the psychological concepts and factors behind this - can this be genetic? I sure hope not...

Nothing has really happened that I can consider as terrible, I am just feeling low today. I had bladder surgery 1 ½ weeks ago and can's plant my garden, flowers, I can't do any yard work or house work for that matter. I know some of you would say.. WOO HOO, but to me, it's a bad thing. I enjoy being outside, planting, reaping in the harvest. It will be 3 more weeks before I can do anything! I would scream but my abdominal incision would hurt and then it would be even worse. I am happily married, 3 beautiful teenagers, a cat and a dog. But it doesn't matter today, I am just feeling blue. Now don't write saying... "don't kill yourself, see a psych" or things like that because it's not like that, I am just feeling down and wanted to know what you do to feel better. No nasty or rude answers please.

you are in a group of people such as a class or setting where you see each other on a regular basis. As time goes on you begin to sense that you are the person no one respects and you don't know exactly why. You have all the same things in common with the others but you still feel that you are ignored or put off as unimportant. You try to assert yourself but then you are glared at as though you are not allowed to express you own opinions. This feels highly controlling but you are not sure if you are imagining it or not. Has anyone had this type of social behavior happen. It is like the minute someone saw you they immediatly judged you and you were the dog that gets beat.

Can you remember that song from four or five years ago, "More to Life" by Stacy Orrico? This song sums me up perfectly, an ongoing feeling. I'm not depressed or anything but I can't help but feel my life is ... in a sense ridiculous... and that there has to be more to life. Can anybody help more quit feeling like this... do something about the feeling... or at least tell me how I can overcome this state???
