I went out to dinner a couple nights ago and I saw a 85-90 year old man sitting at a table for 16. The old man was sitting at the head of the table with 8 seats going away from him on each side. I was guessing he was having a party and waiting for the guests to arrive. He had appitizers set out for the soon-to-be people around him and wine glasses for every place. When I got to the restaurant, it was around 6:00. I watched the old man wait for his guests while me and my guest ordered our food. About 10 or so minutes after I sat down, an Asian couple and their daughter came to the old man's table and sat down. I could tell by their awkward glances around that they were late. Maybe 10 minutes after the Asian couple got there, a middle-aged black women joined the table with the elderly man and the Asian couple. Twelve more spaces were empty, and the appitizer were still laying out on the table to be enjoyed. Twenty minutes went by with no one else showed up. The elderly man told the waiter to take the un-eaten appitizers away and make the 16-seat table into the 5 person table of those who were there. This sight bothered me so when my waiter came to check up on me and my guest, I asked what was going on at the old man's table. The waiter told me that the old man wanted to take out some of the people who have been taking care of him as he got older and treat them to a good meal. Only the Asian couple and the black woman showed up. This was very shocking for me because how could someone, or 12 out of 16 people invited, just not show up? I could tell by the look in the old man's eyes that he was dissapointed and sad at the fact hardly anyone showed up. I could also tell the guests that showed up felt awkward. This broke my heart and made me think of why people would do that to someone who wanted to treat them. How can some people be so cruel sometimes? Some people will never change. But I know that after seeing that 85-90 year old man sitting, waiting for people to show up, changed me.

Where are I/O psychologists typically employed? I tried searching Monster.com for I/O without any luck. I heard some go into management positions - what are these, and are they profitable?

What's the starting income pay? How's the work environment? Is a master's degree in I/O psychology all you need? Serious answers only... thanks in advance.

She attempted suicide and lived, but has many serious injuries that are going to require a lot of intensive physical therapy and probably many more surgeries. Before the suicide attempt she was on Wellbutrin XL and was having severe insomnia so her doctor took her off of it. Two weeks later she tried killing herself. Now the doctor has put her back on it and all she does is cry. She won't communicate with anyone and she is still wanting to die. Can anyone with any knowledge please offer any advice?

No body teaches them or tells them that I can see? They don't see adults running around screaming.

y! answers should have more categories. I hope its okay if this is in psychology. but there is something wrong with my mind.

I have a councellor that I talk to through msn and she doesnt understands me. she doesnt get it why I would do some things. saying 'you have an issue' doesnt really helps. now I just signed off cause she became annoying. I guess I'm a hard case. and she kept talkin about herself. its me that has problems!!!! she has to listen and advice. its ok if a councellor tells something about them, but this one just doesnt helps me. I have another one and he knows how to help but again, he doesnt understands me completely. or I expect from councellors too much????

now I'm again at the beginning. I was hopeful that she would help me tonight being that sweet guy again, but she didnt helped me, nothing. she wants me to tell whats on my mind. if thats what councellors do, then I need someone else that knows how to help.

I have completely screwed up my life somehow ended up working as a receptionist and a very boring, sad person, this has been going on for 6 months now and I have no idea how to fix it. Now whatever I do I’m doing because I have to not because I want to and I cannot see myself ever being happy again……I had so many plans and ideas, this is not how my life was meant to turn out, and in the space of 6 months I have stuffed up 20 years worth of friend ships and family relationships, no one understands as no one has my life but I cannot fix it, I just want to be how I used to be smiling and happy all the time, but I cant see anything helping me now, and I don’t want to be this person forever.

I don't "feel" depressed....

Perhaps hopeless like society is a bunch of rats in cages and there is no way out. Like I see cars going up and down the highway on Monday and I think "Same ol same ol nothing ever changes".

We work, we shop, we go home. No adventures. We work for a few days vacation a year...

I just feel completely hopeless. It's leading me to where I've thought about offing myself numerous times a day.

I suppose this could be depression but I have no idea.

in my childhood i had this constant feeling of freedom and enjoyment in my life, evrything was new to me and enjoyable. why does this excitement decline afterwards by preteen age? nothing's so 'new' anymore but repetitive or routined. WHY? i heard it was something to do with DHEA hormone (teens become more self concious about looks so they get depresed instead of maintaining joy b/c fun only matters to them?) but that doesn't seem to have an impact..

anyone have an answer to this mystery? please and thanks

I've posted this one in psycology too... sorry for the double post, but I would like some serious answers here.. preferably a lot of them....
Question Details: I would like to throw something into the group here... I know normal standards and ethics are fine in most situations. I just wonder if we have restricted loving eachother just a little too much. I am all for age restrictions for children, but why are there so many people who cheat? not the sleezbags cheaters I talk about, but the lovingly married people who just need or want more... it is absolutely undiscussable in our society... why do so many people feel the need to be the "absolute only one" ??? why is sharing love with others ruining lives? when love is such a good feeling? war is way more destructive I would argue and if we would only accept the fact that every now and again you see a person with whom you could share some heartfelt love... then why not??? I want some serious answers here please?

Sometimes when I close my eyes and really focus on relaxing and clearing my mind, I start to feel my body vibrating, and it's like energy is going through your body, like you're about to be carried out of your body.

It's so odd, I don't believe in psychic abilities and all that stuff, just wondering if there's a reason that has been discovered for this yet, or if anyone else experiences this.

What do you do when you are very depressed?
If you are overall, the most of the time, very happy, then I definitly want to know what you do when down. The people who are always down might learn something from you.. so please share your secret on this particular matter? ...

I have let my 15 year old daughter down. Her dad has sole physical and legal custody of her and she lives in another state. He moved due to job reasons and left her in his mother's care

I went to stay with her and came back after 3 weeks. I could not stand the pressure my ex and his mother were putting on me.

Now its the summer and she does not want to have anything to do with me. I understand and agree with her feelings.

I don't know if things will ever be the same. I feel bad and sad about what I have done.

I really can't face people also. I am willing to have her come stay with me, but my ex-husband does not agree. He wants us to get back together and be a family for her sake and both of our sakes. He was controlling and verbally abusive.

If people knew what I did (at work, etc), they would not want to have anything to do with me. So, I don't talk about it.

Yet, I feel terrible each and every day. I don't deserve anything good.
