Psychology - March 2007

I have dreamt about tornados for at least 6 years, it's not a reocurring dream, the tornados show up anywhere. The first time I ever had a lucid dream, I cleared away the black skies with a wave of my hand where I knew a tornado was about to form. I have been lucid dreaming all the time since.. but I still dream about tornados. I usually look off in the distance and I see the tornado, sometimes I know that it will come near but it never directly hits where i'm taking shelter... sometimes I find myself trying to protect others. I often wonder what that tornado is representing and why I always see them in my dreams, far more than any other thing.

We are about to go through it with my 6 year old,they want to check his IQ to see if he is just bored with his school work and then his developmental age against his chronological age and see where he lies. They will take all of this into account and decide if he is just bored, depressed, bipolar, behavioral disorder, etc. He has been getting into a lot of trouble, esp. socially at school.

please can you give constructive comments on my poem, also could you please let me know if you can get the feeling i am trying to put across and if not why, many thanx for spending your time reading this poem

Sunset

We watch as the sun starts descend
I can’t believe this has to end
The thoughts of our time together
Thought you would be mine forever

I hold your hand I grip so tight
Sorrow attacks me I try to fight
I look to Ur eyes for answers not there
I even wonder for my heart u did care

My mind races to find a reason why
That our love for each other cannot die
But I fail for all I can do
Is say these simple words, I love you

You release my hand and then you sigh
This I know is when you say goodbye
You look back at me your eyes so cold
And your slender arms you do fold

I try and hope this is just a dream
But there’s no waking up so it would seem
This is the end for this I am sure
I will love you forever more

What are some standard personality assessments used in business and industry? Keep in mind that these need to be actual, reputable personality assessments which have data to support their use, such as the Myers-Briggs tool. How do these test work? What is your opinion of these tests/tools? Do you think these tests are useful?

Those who believe that human life begins at conception cannot ethically approve
therapeutic cloning research. For them, such research is equivalent to killing a living child
in order to harvest its organs for the benefit of others. Some of those who think this way,
however, might nonetheless find acceptable research on human stem cells derived from
embryos left over from in vitro fertilization procedures. They reason, rightly or wrongly,
that these embryos are certain to be destroyed and that at least some good might result
from using the cells. But therapeutic cloning remains totally unacceptable to such people
because it involves the deliberate creation of what they deem to be a human being in
order to destroy it.

Additional Question: What is the moral status of the organisms created by cloning?

I have a pet peeve that I can not stand when I am talking to someone and they look at my left eye, then the right eye and then back and forth as I talk. I feel like they are trying to see if I am lying or something or like it's some type of psychology trick I don't know about. Or could it be that maybe they just can't focus on both eyes at the same time? Anyone have any ideas as to why this may be?

i am tired of life and i'm only 23, i wish i was never born. i feel like i'm a space filler and have no purpose whatsoever, nothing ever goes right for me EVER!!!! this isn't a i'm-going -to-top-myself rant, i get rejected by women on a daily basis, i'm rubbish at almost every job, a lot people hate me for reasons i sure don't know because i'm a good guy, i'm stuck at home alone with nothing to do. my parents separated ages ago so i feel like a "waste product", my mother prefers to talk about other peoples kids to her friends and i don't get a mention, because i'm a failure through and through and my father doesn't call me. i just don't know what to do with myself anymore.

I grew up with two alcoholic parents. I am now 28 yrs. old. I am just wondering how it effects adults now that they are away from it. I wonder what behaviors of mine are due to my past. For example; relationships, stress, self esteem, jealousy, etc... I seem to think I am pretty normal considering the circumstances, but I am sure some of my negative behavior and personality must have been affected. I just want to know how other adult children of alcoholics feel it has affected them or if anyone has any insight.

I am 24, live in Toronto. I am about to buy my dream car (G35 coupe) in a few weeks, I have a great job, actually about to get a promotion. I have a great education, in fact I am working on my second degree now. I do attend church a few times a year, I perhaps should more. I volunteer, have a sponsored child, I donate lots of money...all the things that I believe should make me happy. The only thing is perhaps I am not with a girl right now, but I don't find myself looking for a girl...so I don't think that's it....

But sometimes I'll sit maybe light a joint, and think...."am I doing enough? why am I not happy?"

Any ideas? Should I just smoke more joints, cause that usually makes the thoughts go away after a while.

When I was younger there was a point in my life that I had a reoccuring dream for about 6-7 days in a row. It was weird but there had to be some reason it happened so many times in a row. I was on a beach but not a normal beach it was mud instead of sand and I was going to some old torn down house which appearntly a witch lived in to talk to her and the only way to get to her house was go around this huge tree on the edge of a small cliff and everytime i got to the tree the dream ended and I never made it to the house. Was there any meaning to that dream?

I dont understand, (and its been like this for ages) that women get the harder beating if they sleep with many guys, but when men sleep with a lot of women, they are congradulated! Shouldnt they be considered ho*** as well?

This has happend to me just once or twice in my life yet. I was in the mode of about to wake up but all my attempts to wake up failed. I remember, I had my eyes opened, so I could see anything I could even move my eyes both horizontally and vertically but couldn't make any response on the outter area. I was unable to move my arms and legs. Neither my whole body was unable to move although I tried thousands of attempts to do so. I felt like I was trapped in a plaster. Suddenly, I got breathing problems as I couldn't breathe in...in about a few second I got awakened. The whole situation took about a few seconds but I thought it was eternity before I finally "started" all my brain "equipment" up. Apperantly, it has a lot to do with igniting the body from standby mode. Has anyone experienced that?

I did a paper about schizophrenia so I read quite a bit of material. This bit of info never made complete sense and I never got around to asking my professor.
Split mind...
I know it is not a split that equates to multiple personalities.
I think it is a split within the mind or between functions of the mind. The best I can determine is that 'split-mind' refers to a lack of continuity between emotions, intellect, and behavior. Such a split would cause a person with schizophrenia to experience irrational or erratic emotions and behavior due to the lack of regulation of the intellect, and so on. Basically, a person with schizophrenia might think of the right thing to do at a situation, such as show compassion and reverence at a funeral, but may not experience such emotions or be able to behave in such ways because of the 'split.'
Is this wrong? If yes, why/how?
