Psychology - April 2007

Studying some Freud and Lacan, though I wonder where does hypnosis come into these theories?

Is it a bridge between the id and ego / imaginary and symbolic order?

Should you be thankful?

For a bag of crisps,
When calling for a buoyant float?
For a book to read,
As hunger pangs engulf your gut?
A thread bare vest, from fur clad donor,
With nights growing colder?
A condescending gesture,
Not even friendship, only kinship requested?
Coldness of impersonal greeting,
Not warmth of human meeting.
Shed tears for another’s dying pet,
While pain of those around let pass?
Is there place for real and genuine,
Where authentic is valued?
Or is phoney currency,
All that’s left?

ok i have a specific way i have to eat. Anyone around me with a flipped up sleeve, or inside out hood gets me upset. I can not stand it and i have to fix it. Its soo hard when i dont know the person and cant, i get red faced and cant stop staring at it.
I cant stand it when other people touch my stuff or move it. (going back to other kids changing the clothes on my barbie dolls and having THE most organized locker and desk) Along with others.
My family is selling their house, and my mom came in and moved and took out alot of stuff from my room, and now i seriusly can not sleep in the room and i cry becuase i am sooo mad that it isnt the way i had it (alot of it is becuase i feel like she took stuff i needed, or what if i needed something, mb she threw something away that i need). I am such a wreck!

What can I do?!? I need to sleep and i just cant and i think im on the verge of a breakdown!

i dont want to take medication just any advise on how to get over this would be great!

Would you jump right in and try to help the person in distress? Would you look around to see if anybody else was responding before you committed yourself to help? Would you be ticked because you had to stop something you were enjoying to help? Or would you try to pretend you didn't hear.

"Shayla" lived in the apartment beneath mine four years ago. We've had months of not speaking to one another at different periods, and I have felt very betrayed by her in the past. She asked me to be a bridesmaid in her wedding, and I agreed. When she began fighting with her maid of honor (her sister!) I got "promoted" to the position. To make matters worse, she admits she doesn't love him, and is constantly looking up exes and talking about trying to find a "fling" since she has a "free cheat" to get even with her man for an affair he had with one of his exes. I have asked her if she is sure she wants to marry him, and she says it doesn't matter since divorce is so easy. She doesn't have many friends, and calls me her "BFF." If I step down, I'm not sure she could replace me with anyone local. Should I suck it up and shoulder all this work for a friend I'm not sure is that close? Should I tell her how I feel about participating? Is there a gracious way out?

Whats the harm in doing a few lines of coke at a party, a few lines wouldn't kill me. I asked my cousin if he's ever tried coke and he said no, then he said, "I better not ever catch you doing coke, if I ever catch you doing coke, I will break every bone in your body." I don't she why he cares since he has done extacy in the past. He somehow believes coke is worse then extacy. Hes like, you can die the first time for doing coke. I think its the other way around. If my cousin has done X, then why would he do if I do a few lines of coke at a party.

I'm 25, B.S. in biology. Will do well on GREs for sure (lots of studying until I'm ready). Don't have any extracurriculars (just not that type of person) although I might join a club soon.

From what I hear it is very competitive.. so I really don't see how I could get in especially since I don't have a bachelor's in psychology

Do I have a chance? Especially if:

1) I take a semester of psychology courses, the core ones that most programs seem to require

2) Do extremely well (95% or higher) on the GREs

3) Do well on the psychology GRE by studying for a few years for it

4) Join Psi Chi during the semester I take the psych classes

Ok..I've posted this before, and while I got a lot of kind responses I never really got what I was looking for..so I'll ask again. The thing is I have what is called a hypnofetish. I get turned on by seeing attractive people hpnotized and being hypnotized myself. IT started about a year ago after volunteering for this x rated hypnotist in my sorority. The whole thing felt veyr relaxing and very erotic. The show was of an erotic bent, meaning we did a lot of nasty stuff like give head to lolipops and have an orgasm from a foot rub or "orgasm gun" After this show I've been incredibly turned on by hypnosis and am worried that I might have messed myself up sexually..or something. Anyway..what I want to know is am I normal..or what. I still get turned on by normal sex, just hypnosis really gets me hot...My BF thinks im stupid..so..yeah..what should I do.

I always seem to have dreams about tides coming and trying to drown me. It's very scary! My dream can start out good or bad, and somehow, an ocean tide always gets in there and I almost drown. I had one the other night, and I seem to have them constantly. I LOVE water. It doesn't make any sense. I've been told by a phsycic and by friends that it might be linked to a past life. I don't even care what it is at this point! I just want these cold sweat, fast heartbeat nightmares to stop! They're very stressful and confusing and after I have a dream about it, I think about it all day like "WHAT DOES IT MEAN?!" =(

Quite a few, I was sleeping on the beach and the tide creeped up on me and tried to drown me. I seem to almost drown to death, and then I usually get away.

Some are like that, but in other dreams, the tides are actually CHASING after me, or the water rises very quickly and there's no way to escape.

Please help. =/
This is driving me INSANE!
