its a torture to cross a road, for pedesterians......just look at the system in some overseas countries, does life have no value or is it that nobody seriously cares to look into this crucial setback?

I was raised Catholic from birth, and it was all colorful for a bit but once I reached adulthood I didn't feel enlightened at all. All that once was bright and good, became a big lie. Backed up by the most spiritual person in my family, my grandmother. Maybe it's her prayers that keep me alive, I don't know. I don't see people praying ever. I don't believe the people that surround me actualy believe in anything higher than themselves. But there's something inside me that makes me believe in something bigger than all of us. I have had it with organized religion. I'll respect yours, I'm not here to destroy anyone's belief. My belief was substituted by science and paychecks. I still believe in the Golden Rule. I live trying to make sence of my perception. In the past I used LSD many times. It never handicapped from doing anything someone who wasn't under the influence could do and it never affected my judgment. I believe in my experience I saw things as they really are.

If so what were the signs you saw in advance, what did you think about it after?

I know people who don't perfectly love themselves, but they are in loving relationships and often can show love to the other person better than to him/herself.
I also know people who don't love themselves very much (low self esteem, self abuse, lack of care) but other people love them.
So can you shine some light on this?

I used to be a frequent flyer, I even endured some pretty rough flights and landings and never never had any fear or anxiety about planes. Now I have developed a phobia and can hardly tolerate being on a plane... Anybody knows if this could be connected to having seen the 9/11 attacks on TV and thinking about how awful it must have been for those people onboard?

...he was in his 40's during that period from 65 to 69. He's a writer by the name of Norman Mailer. When asked about LSD use in the 60's he explained that it opened a big highway to the mysteries of life and he was totaly against it's use, and never did used it himself. He said this,

"I felt it was too easy. I have always had this very strong, call it a feeling, call it a prejudice, call it a conviction, that the mysteries are not easily available. You have to earn entrance in to them." he goes on..."the people that were taking it were seeming to become less and less as they took it. They got emptier and more vapid"

What are your thoughts reading this? Can you describe an experience in which you earned into a mystery of life?

I ask this because I have used LSD in the past, but to this day I feel denied by "public conciousness" [as I call it], and it's mysteries. I keep thinking that people are seeing something in me, they don't want to learn or just don't like.

Consider this.

I often find myself in situations where I am being insulted and/or made fun of by people 'for a joke'. I'm not saying that it's just me or anything. I think this happens with everyone to some extent or another. I feel like I'm being provoked to some sort of emotional reaction by hurtful or irritating behaviour that is being ostensibly portrayed and "just messing around". This behaviour may indeed be entertaining for the person handing it out or a third party for whatever reason.

I feel a strong social pressure to 'take it on the chin'; to participate in the 'joke' simply to cover over the fact that I might really be hurt or annoyed. I might want to cover over the fact because the threat of the taboo of 'over sensitivity' might get pushed on me.

I mustn't show that I'm responding emotionally to the jibe because people might think i "can't take it" and I'm "getting upset" which is a 'bad' thing.

What do you think?

Do you think the confidence and knowledge that you earn as years go by actually outweigh the loss of youthfulness and innocent ignorance, I mean once you hit the 40 + barrier.

Well I'm a 26 yr old guy, brought up by abusive parents who I no longer even feel close to. I'm a graudate and started working at 21, was really content with my life being independant and all, answerable to noone, but my parents didn't like that so screwed up my life.
I have a steady job but live in a different town now. I don't have a girlfriend because I just can't trust anyone, I have few friends and I speak too less.
I am planning to go back to the place where I started working, the place where I lived the best year of my life, the only difference is that I was very motivated back then, now I'm not so, plus I'm older.
I would also like to add that between 23 and 25 I was contemplating ending my life becuase I felt so decieved, but unfortunately couldn't end my life, I started counselling and am on meds now, but now I'm 26 and not 22, the last four years of my life haven't been so fulfilling, now if I have to start fighting again, I'll be starting at 26 and I lack motivation.

I am 19 years old. And I dont know what to do with my life.
I am currently going to start my 2nd semester in a comunity college and I work part time; so Im not exactly wasting my time right now.

But I have a problem when it comes to picking a career and field of study. So many things are interesting to me and I dont like the idea of restricting myself to one thing, what some would call "specialization"; subsequently, I fear that i have what is called choice paralysis(a paradox of choice) due to too many choices and not enough information about the choices and the lack of decision making HELP!

IS THIS NORMAL? IT IS MAKING ME ANXIOUS?
IT SUCKS
I cant see where Im going to be in 10 years, as we students are so offten asked. I can barely see into next month.
maybe im just being irresponible or complaining too much.
Is there help out there? Is this normal?

You can tell they are angry with you, and they just refuse to talk to you, how does that make you feel?

I guess I mean facilities that are more like rehab centers than psych wards.
I posted a question a few months ago and most of you told me a vacation would be a good idea. I'm only 17 and I can't really go on a true vacation somewhere.
I'm going to ask my therapist about it, but I really want to take some kind of break before school starts. I'm pretty sure I'm going to be on medication as of Wednesday, but I just need a rest.
I have no idea if there is a place like this where I live or if they even exists. I don't want to go to an institution or anything like that. Just a place to relax and even have therapy sessions for a few weeks. A place that will let my Mom bring me home whenever we feel it's time.
Maybe the medicine will help, but at the rate I'm going I don't see how I can make it through another school year.

Recently, I had a job offer that was more money (25% + more)and promotion. Because of greed of getting more money than the original offer, I held back. Because of my mistake, the deal fell through and the employer hired someone else. This has been really bothering me. It has been nearly three months now and I can't get past this. I cannot even focus on my current job and my family. I don't know what to do. I feel like I missed out and it's bothering me beyond words. I have never felt like this before. Call it crazy, but I sometimes even get to tears. Help! How can I overcome this? How would you rank this in terms of a regretful life event? Thank you for your help.
