Psychology - March 2007

I'm not too sure who he was, the question was deleted, I put him as a contact and hope he is still there, however, my question has to do with some of the responces to his plea for help. There were plenty of great advice, plea's to not eat the bullet, wait a day, see a chaplin, and such, really good solid responces to steer him away from suicide. However, there were also morons that basically shut him down. These people are no better than those who stand on a sidewalk looking at a desperate soul on a ledge and screeming "JUMP". "David P" started his responce with name calling. I was going to search for the others as soon as I got on today but it's gone.

The question... What do you think Yahoo Answers should do with these losers who try to push people over the edge in suicidal cases? These morons who hide behind freedom of speech, when all they want to do is be responcible for someones death? I know what I would like to do to them, and it ain't pretty!

I was just wondering.... When I'm not working or when I'm unemployed and just looking for work or even when I have holidays, my confidence, self esteem goes sky high but when I do get back into work again, I feel that my confidence goes back down again after a few weeks and my performance is not that good. Why is that? Why cant I ever settle?

I am taking an Ast 101. I am a very fast test taker (25 mins ish) and I am always the first person to finish. I get A's on all my labs an on all my quizzes. I took another test this morning and I finished second.The teacher normally sits in the room but he had some who needed to talk to him outside of class.So he was outside while I was taking the test. And I sit next to my friend and i just told her not to quietly, that I will wait for her outside but to hurry. I told her this because I have work after class. I was told by her friend in class that some guy went up to a girl who sits relatively close to me and asked if I cheated!! I am so appauld. I get A's on everything and I am always the first person to finish! I dont understand why I would be accused of it. I am not sure if he told the teacher or if he is going to but it is ridiculous! What do I do or say if the teacher asks me?

I need something refreshing to feel alive.
My only constraints are time and money.
I can go with my bf but he's a little more "by the book" than I am...

so you know how everyone has really unique thoughts/feelings that sometimes can't be described in words? Like a dream--you can explain it as a series of events but its hard to describe how you felt and the ambiguity of it?
so how do you explain ambiguous thought sequences and feelings in words to do the most justice? besides similies and metaphors??

Why is it that some women cannot find meaningful relationships with other women? My entire life- all of my close friends have been male. I have had female friends, but none of them close, and they always ended up stabbing me in the back. I was never able to trust women as much as men. There was always this underlying competition going on between women and all other women, even the ones who were friends, and I never liked that. I would just much rather stay out of that. I have a female friend on Yahoo 360, who seems to be an exception to that, but I don't know her that well yet. Men have always been more respectful toward me, more down to earth, and I was always able to trust them more.I also find that I don't have much to talk to women about! They don't seem interested in the things that interest me. My brother and I were best friends all through childhood and high school. Even my husband & I were close friends before dating.

O.K My girlfriend broke up with me 2 weeks ago. She gave pretty feeble excuses, and we had been dating for a year. I had no contact whatsoever with her, until she asked the other day if i would mind going for a drink with her as friends. I went along...we just argued...and she spent the whole time telling me about a guy friend she met up wiv 4 1st time in 3yr...i stupidly admitted i loved her, and said that this whole friends thing wasnt working, and i walked out of the room. Since, I get texts saying how hurtful she was,sorry,& could we be friends.i ignored her.she then asks my friends have they seen me today cos she's worried about me!Anyway,yest i had enough,& textd her back saying that she hurt me 2much & to leave me alone,i said u've moved on,so should i.anyway,she replied saying she still has feelings 4me,& misses parts of our relationship,but doesnt want to date again.i agreed to meet her 4drink 2moro, but i backed out..then she said she was naive 2 think friends would work

I have studied more than I have ever studied before since being in college. I try so hard to get the grades and it just doesnt help. My gpa last quarter was a 2.83, now with Winter quarter ending, my gpa is dropping to a 1.88, which is devastating for me. I feel like such a failure and to top it off, it feels like I have to work extra harder because i am a minority. I asked to use other resources for my classes and I was told no. Can you tell me Why I am such a failure?

ok so I'm not literally a wuss. But I just can't get angry, when someone trys to cause conflict or argue I'm clueless. I can't come up with a come back at all. This leaves the person thinking they can easily pick on me - this useually leads to me punching them in the face. How the hell can I make it clear to someone that I'm not a victim. How the hell do I come up with great comebacks?

I'm in college, and my inability to focus is really starting to hurt me. Any ways to help focus and manage my time? Yes I probably do have ADD/ADHD, but I have never actually been tested or anything (but I basically fit the whole description, except maybe impulsitivity).

This was a college library, close to the finals. A wintry night and the building was open late for bespectacled bookworms. By coincidence there were two suicides in Halloween and this particular day was Friday the thirteenth. The studs were out of favor and the nerds were in business. I had this Junior Einstein leaning to one side under the weight of reference manuals and weighty texts being popped up by a bevy of clueless damsels that partied hard during the semester but now needed the Juniors expertise to complete their term papers. Guys like me were definitely out of favor since my academics were questionable at best and deplorable at worst. Being alone and vindictive I decided to lace the toilet tank with ruby red dye. Soon Junior went in to take care of his Junior and came out screaming .. speechless .. spectacles bouncing on sweaty brows. His buddy a logical sort went in and was on way out screaming when he tripped and fell on the wet floor. Will the shower be a good choice next?

I'm a teacher and last night had a dream that my 'mentor' was telling me that everyone in the school hated me... the teachers and the principal and that the assistant principal was the worse of all. She was telling everyone that I wasn't a good teacher and that I hated teaching!!!! Even the children hated coming to my class because of me!!!!
Meanwhile I looked at my desk and my engagement ring (I'm married already) was all mashed up, as if someone tried to take the diamond out and couldn't.
Does anyone know what this might mean?

Thanks for helping me out!
