beers. you lay down and relax..then quickly drift off to sleep...........



you wake up to find that~ the tide has come in all around you above your waist. you feel the icy water gettin deeper around you.
the once populated beach is now deserted, all around you is the tide, its gone overcast to. up above is cloudy and a steel grey clouds everywhere, into the horizon in the distance is grey cloud cover. the water of the ocean is rapidly risin, and is now upto your chest........
what do you do? what do you think? how do you react? what are your actions?
cheers

i've been having it my whole life (13yrs)

it's really hard to explain, but i'll try.

i am nowhere. it's peaceful, when i start to hear things, i can never remember what.
the thing that's saying the things is constantly growing (figuratively) and i can't see him. it is a man, though. it doesn't have a voice, it's just male.
the sayings get gradually angrier, until they get terrifying.

sometimes there are other things, like a chicken, a shoot of a plant; a girl who looked like a japanese cartoon, with green hair. etc etc.

then the chicken, etc tries to reason with the voice, and it just gets angrier. (i dont know why, but i just know it's reasoning, even tho i cant remember what it says.) then the voice gets angrier and it goes on for hours, me getting terrified.


it seems to happen more when i'm tired; or sleeping in the car. if i'm completely smashed, like now, sometimes i get it when i'm awake, and i fall over, shivering and crying. hope u can help?

I think that people are inherently evil. Although I don't think good and evil are absolute values, we usually label people as good when they care about others and obey the laws of the land, and we usually label people as evil when they are selfish and malicious. But we have to be taught and socialized to be compassionate and law abiding. While our animalistic urges are inclined towards selfishness and agression. The urges predate and can overpower what we've socialized to be, so I think people are inherently evil.

Your thoughts?

I hate my life. I've made all the wrong choices and wasted my youth. I'm nearly 23 and have suffered from low self-esteem my entire life. I have no friends and live in an isolated area with my emotionally abusive mother. To top it off,i've got 20k in student debt because i'm from a poor background and didn't even spend it on drink, clubbing, clothes, travel etc. I didn't have the courage to go to uni far away and went to one near by and stayed there just to get away from my horrible situtuation. I struggled through uni and didn't go out. Come summer i just sat indoors. It didn't even occur to me that there was more to life. I graduated and spent 6 months indoors looking for work as i lacked experience. I just want to move away but the financial implications frighten me. I'm also not very savvy for my age, i've been ripped off and only ever seem to encounter cruel, nasty people. I thought uni would be the best years of my life. I feel so low. I don't even know what career i want. Help!

I've heard that if you're doing affirmations its best to do them each day. What is the best affirmation you can do each day. I'm looking for a simple daily affirmation for general wellbeing.

What makes people drawn to someone? There are two types of "popular" people. One who is popular becuase they are nice and everyone likes to be around them and one whos Snobby and everyone wants to be in for the ride but usually even their closest friends deep down dont like a negative person. Which one do you think is more common??? Just curious for your input

I am changing the way I think - turning from being a negative person to a positive thinker. I want great things in my life and would like to hear from others who have already experienced it.

To me having your administration screen or dictate by their opinion what is good or bad is bad business. Your rich so you can do this. I think you and I would make great friends but then you are the judge of the characters that you find suitable.

I had a dream were I was in the Target parking lot being chased by hyenas with glowing red eyes. Then the parking lot turned into a warehouse, and I heard a vioce telling me what to do to avoid the hyenas. It ended sometime after that. I had it a while ago, and can't figure out what it means!

My husband always tells me stories of how many accidents he has been in and a time he was not paying attention and stuck a hot electrically charged welding rod up his nose I wonder if it caused him brain damage, because he does not react to people in a normal mature fashion and he is way past the normal reckless stupid age. He chronically complains to total strangers with out thinking about it. He almost starts fights because of his attitude. He has almost caused several wrecks because he was not willing to wait another two seconds for someone to move there car on the highway. It seems like he has apsolutely no inner dialogue and consistantly offends others disregaurding their feelings and it is embarssing to me as well setting a bad example for our daughter. Also little things set him off and he has out bursts of anger and what can I do about it? Is there anything I can do about it? It it a form of brain damage causeing his irrational behavior?

If you have them, what do you do when you get them?

I'm used to having things with hot/cold flashes and lightheadedness, but today it was like I was going to vomit and my stomach felt, and still feels, insanely nauseated with heartburn and blahblahblah. God. It fxcking sucks. If this happened to you, what did you do? I'm thinking pepto bismol, haha.

When people go travelling or go to university they say they 'enjoyed every minute', can this feeling be achieved living everyday life? i.e. while you're holding down a job, paying a mortgage, looking after kids and doing more 'normal' things
