Psychology - April 2007

For the past three weeks I have been struggling with a sinus infection, and have underwent two rounds of antibiotics. My boss asked me today if I was feeling better. I answered honestly: Yes better but still a bit congested. His reply was "You know you don't have to always be sick." kinda sarcastically. I am peeved becasue I work really hard and was only out one day sick this year, and it was for this sinus infection. Does he think I enjoyed the last few weeks of misery?! I'm not always sick. I do have allergies and get about three colds a year, but I show up at work and still do a good job. Why is he only focusing on the negative?

sometimes it's hard to believe in yourself 100% when something major breaks up your confidence,

What ways do you use to pick yourself up again ?

i feel completely numb most of the time. i have been through alot and i am on zoloft.

but it feels like i am a sociopath but i know im not because i can recognize characteristics in myself. but i am able to hurt people very badly emotionaly and i cn easily manipulate people for my own selfishness. i alo have never been able to empathize with people. it like i cant see past my own nose but its not like a self love or anything.

I truly believe that a person can change if he tried hard enough. My problem is appearing too weak as a personality in a social environment. I'm too friendly and feel taunted by upper-hand gaining social situations. For example: if I bump my car into somebody on the street and he came out screaming that he's gonna kick my ***, my gut will probably explode rather then I kick his *** instead.

How can I be a more collective and respectable person who's not afraid of standing his ground?

Just last week we got a new manager at work. I find myself talking about her quite a bit (more than anyone else), and at work (when she's around) I'm always smiley and giddy (I don't quite feel in controle of myself). When she noticed she asked why I was always laughing (not laughing, huge smile) at her I had no idea what to say, I just avoided it (at that moment I realized what I was doing. That's how I act around guys I have crushes on, only to a lesser degree).Then I aways try to work/get close to her.

I have no love left, no happiness, no friends, no family, no future, no past, no memories, just nothing. What else is there? Nothing? What do I do now? With nothing?

Have you guys noticed that? Questions about sex get about 50 answers, and everything else gets maybe 10 or 15. I know this isn't ALWAYS the case, but it kinda happens alot, right?
Whyyyy?

I have these recurrent dreams involving these two guys I knew at different times when I was a teenager. What they have in common is that they both died at an early age, one from a heart problem and the other (I think) from a drug overdose. Why do I keep dreaming about them? Sometimes I think they are trying to contact me, or that we are communicating in some intermediate state. Has anyone else had similar experiences? (I would prefer not to get dismissive replies from atheists or dogmatic replies from Christians--thanks!)

Why is it almost 100% of the time I ask a question I get one or more people criticizing me for asking that question, or being in this situation, or criticizing my spelling, grammer, punctuation.. whatever.. I'M ASKING FOR ADVICE HERE NOT TO BE TREATED LIKE A CHILD OR AN IDIOT!! I'M NOT ASKING FOR PERSONAL BELITTLEMENT BY THE AVERAGE PERSON WHO IS MISRIBLE WITH HIS/HER LIFE AND THE ONLY WAY OF MAKING THEMSELF FEEL BETTER IS BY PLACING JUDEMENT ON ME... I am not asking for your judgement! I really dont care what you think of me!! Just for once I would like some advice instead of someone trying to put me down for living my life the way I live it.. If you dont know how to give advice..here's some advice.. Put your own opinions aside and put youself in that persons shoes think what it must be like to be them then think what would I do if I was them?..I also noticed when I do get advice its filled with so much negitivity! Are there no positive people on here who know know how to give advice?

For example, in medicine all the advances, do not really increase the length of life (ancient bible passages give 70 yrs, as the length of life), or the enjoyment of life (we are overloaded with worries, even about the air we breathe and the food we eat----poisoned with industrial minerals), or in cosmology the advances in knowledge simply dumbound anyone who tries to keep up, with absolutely "neutral" facts that do not make you happy the least bit. The "billions of years" simply stun a human being, rather than enlighten.

I just read Franz Kafka's short story, and I have to write...

what the heck is The Metamporphosis about?

I'm just looking for thoughts, opinions, and especially sites on what the big picture in the story is, or what people believe it's about. Any help would be great, thanks!

My dad is determined to stay home. This past Friday morning he was having yet another hallucination thinking he saw people trying to steal his car. He shot through the window of his home towards the car. Then when the imaginary people wouldn't get out of the car, he poured gas around the car to smoke them out. The sheriff came out to the house twice in one night and he ended up in the nut house.
He poured the gas very close to the house and was sitting outside with a shotgun when the cops came out.
He doesn't bathe (maybe 2 baths in 7 years) and he doesn't want any help from me. They are mad with me, because the people at the hospital want me to help or put him in a nursing home. I don't want to do the nursing home thing and was trying to get them closer to me so that I could help them. My feeling is that if I don't get involved the state is now involved and will put them both away if I don't get them closer to me so that I can see them taken care of. I live 2 hrs away! Help?

Despite all the things that went wrong, are you satisfied with the way everything turned out thus far? Think about it, had things not worked out the way they did then we wouldn't be the people that we are. I'm pretty grateful to be me...how about you?
