i wake in the night my worries come into my mind,and i become like an open tap,iam also aware of my breathing (rapid) i have only once trapped my thoughts.
my mother is a real worrier,i have always resented her because i feel she infected me with her worries and anxiety when i was a child,i dont want 2 live like this any more. Ihave always suffered from low self esteem, poor confidence, do i need 2 discipline my mind,or is it down 2 genes.GOD i hope not..

Everytime I want to start praying and exercising, I feel laziness on my part, and something trying to talk me out of it. Either that, or it says, do it later.

How do I start now, and have motivation?

Thanks.

was dating a guy for three months.. he was very into me, (called me day after meeting, asked for date next day,etc..) the few time we hung out i was my normal sweet self.. but i found out that my favorit closest aunt was terminally ill so i shut down. i never told him what was wrong, but i guess he stayed around hoping i'd be how i was before. eventually he said he couldn't take me treating him like that anymore and broke up with me.. i didn't call him for a few weeks, but then my aunt died and i sent him an email explaining i was acting weird bc my aunt was sick. he didn't respond right away so i flipped out and bombarded him w/text messages..(crazy i know) he never ever did respond. a girlfriend of mine asked him what was his deal and he said i was annoying the heck out of him with my bs. i know for a fact that he doesn't have another girlfriend, so he honestly was tired of me being rude/cold.

so why when i reached out he didn't believe me/respond?

I'm only 22 but I have an extreme fear of dying. It's not that I'm worried how I will die, its more like I cannot imagine ever waking up. I know that life is based on being born and dying but it's a scary thought for me. I've already set aside plans to be buried above ground in an above ground structure called a Mausoleum. It's kind of like a little house. The reason for this is b/c once I do die (even though I know that I will not know whether or not I'm underground) is b/c I am scared of being buried underground. I know this sounds weird but does anyone else have this feeling?

When you're visual about the world. Have allergies and are
Spin yourself around. sensitive.
Repeat words. Talk in a loud voice.
Obsess over music. Have phobias of wasps and thunder.
Obsess over insects.
Repeat yourself.
and have repetitive thoughts about the world
and stare and don't talk or go silent and stare mentally
what does it mean or what kind of disorder could it be.

Okay so I feel like spiders are like in my house most of the time and when I see one something weird happens,Im so scared of them but I always see them.Like this one time I was in my sitting room watching this movie and something told me to look up on the ceiling and I did and when I looked up there was this spider going crazy walking around in circles around the light,so I jumped and when it saw me it stopped walking around so I thought I scared it 2 death or something.So I left it in there and shut the door.the next day it was still in the sam spot it was before where it stopped at,so I was like it cant still be scared it should've hid soemwhere or something so I caled my mom 2 kill it because I cant kill any nasty bug for anything,when she goes to kill it she told me it was already dead.So the problem is like if I see a spider it just dies or somthing,does this mean somthing.Someone told me they had a dream with me and spiders thats why im askin,im not weird and sry so long EWWWWWW

In your opinion, what's the best way to get revenge against someone that doesn't involve ANYTHING illegal or nothing that would cause physical harm? Something psychologically unnerving or annoying.

I was dancing at the clubs last night, and so many people were hostile and angry all night, for no apparent reason. Mix that with a few cocktails, and whoa … I though Armageddon came at closing time. Little itsy-bitsy women were taking down cops; every establishment in town had a cop, ambulance, and fire truck. Men were fighting, and just there was general mayhem EVERYWHERE. I don’t think anyone died … but even after a sports team wins there has been more order.

I guess my only thought is that many people may have been digesting so much negative stuff by watching the VA tragedy, and I was wondering if there is a psychological terminology or study that would show a correlation between violence witness through the media and violence in real life.

OR I'm looking for a social explanation on why ppl were so violent last night (especially the women). Good greif.

it seems that my one friend "recharges my batteries" and after I hanng with her for a good period of time, if i saw her later, it would be too much...like it would be extraneous..too much..like
we both need breaks.
but my other two friends..i could see them the same next day and not be a problem.
