I have allways been XXXXtremly easy to startle.
Like this:
I am on an elevator and the doors open up and if someone is standing there, I scream.
If someone comes up from behind and says something, when I am not expecting anything, I scream.
When I am a passenger in a car I am Constantly jumping and freaking out, to the point of crying. I keep thinking that we are going to crash.
Once in the summer time, while I was a passenger in a car, we drove over a brige that had a sign that read " watch out for ice on bridge" and I about had a heart attack.
If I have a bad dream I wake up crying.
It is instinctive and primal. I am usually the type of person that is not afraid. Like I will not lock my door if I am home etc.

Would you rather have a boyfriend/girlfriend that always said "I love you" and never really show it with their actions? or one that never said "I love you" but always showed it with their actions?

The condensed version of the story... Father walked away when I was born. Didn't want a child, understandable for a young single man I guess. Refused to acknowledge me or my mother.... until I was 23. Suddenly I get a random letter... a couple emotionless emails... then nothing again for the last year or two!!

Can you ever forgive them? Can you learn to love them as a person when you associate them with pain for you and your mom? Does the feeling of rejection and abandonment ever go away?

Serious answer only please.

What if scientists were able to prove that genetic defects at birth leave a child open to brain development that is prone to criminal behavior, such as "kleptos", "abusive people" "rapists" "serial killers." If that was the case, wouldn't it be seen more as a disease then a crime, and if these people get "cured" through genetic therapy, should they be held as accountable for something they had no control over just as much as someone who ended up with cancer? I know nobody wants to think this way, but I feel as we advance further in science, we will soon realize that old ideas of things painted in black and white. good and evil are outdated and its really nature and nurture that sets the tone.

It seems that I see alot of people claiming that they have depression and asking about medications or been given advice about medication. Is better living through chemistry always the cure?

I am the center of the universe. Everything revolves around me. Perception isnt reality, My Reality is the true reality. Minus my senses, existence ceases. Christianity's simply a means of explaining the key to success. I believe there is only one fundamental absolute truth: There is no truth. Everything I do and say follows the fact of Existence. Relativity is the absolute. I have no personal secrets. Secrets harbor insecurity. I lack normal empathy. I don't believe in miracles, God, or the supernatural. I perform mircales, pray to God, and have OBEs. Everything can be explained. I am greater than my consiousness. I = God = Existence = Natural = TheWholeOfEverything = BiblicalLove = Perfection. The only sin = lack of faith. I enjoy every thing in life, including that which I don't enjoy. I hate anxiety and live an anxiety-free life. I am completely happy and teach others how to be. Also, every thing is real and has an effect, including the imaginary.

What am I?

My antropology professor was talking about family and he said that, the eldest son will usually be more traditional and take after his fathers footsteps, but the second son will usually be more of a rebal. He didnt mention anything about only children, I will ask him but I wont see him til next week.

But what are you opinions on only children growing up, how does being an only child affect their personality and behaviors?

Who's jealous, threatened, and challenged by you (especially since they know they aren't the center of your world, and know you know that they are not who they pretend to be, though they know they can "use their status" to be believed.) They talk bad about you causing others to stay away from you, having a way of making others believe whatever it is they say about you, even though of course you can't prove it-though it is very damaging to your character. Though I don't work around them, I do cross paths with them from time to time. How do you "turn the tables" on them so others can see it's them, and realize THEY ARE the vindictive manipulative one who should be seen as such and avoided. They are working professionals ( without integrity of-course) I included that because people believe if someone has a good education and public recognition, that they are automatically trustworthy and credible- and that just isn't so!

All throughout my education I was talked down to. And if it wasn't at school even some relatives made me feel small because of their own problems or insecurities. Well, my self-esteem took a great downfall from this and I'm verily afraid of young middle-school aged boys/ junior high. Today when I saw a few of them walking along the sidewalk I kind of froze and started to get nervous. When I got inside the memory of being that age and being put down appeared in my mind, it's like when I was looking at those boys their faces changed, I wasn't hallucinating, just sort of reliving the moment. When I got inside tears started to well up. I want to get out of that moment and build myself up again.

I'm doing homework and can't figure out which one is right:

-We seek to prove the "null" hypothesis when doing research.
-We cannot "prove" the null hypothesis.

I cant find it in my book either...does anyone know?

When my older son was only 3 years old he talked about another life he lived. He said was a big boy and his little brother was his big brother& they were both big, and his brother died in a fire and he tried to save him but he couldn't save him . But now they were brothers again. He then said I wasn't his Mommy then.This shocked me.(scared me to be truthful) He had a speach problem because he is very hard of hearing. He spoke very plainly when he talked about this other life! That part also scared me. He had never heard of such things before.

Dont you believe that in your own life YOU should make the important decisions and not rely on others for the burdens of your own moral and ethic fibers? I believe there is no more sense of self worth anymore, that everything has to be screened through a general consensus in order for the population to retain its status quo. Why?
