My whole life I was never "the best" at anything so rather than try harder I took the easy route and got attention for being a f**k up instead of attention for being great at something like I really wanted. But when nothing comes naturally to you you can't get the positive attention. Now I'm tired of the negative attention and want to be amazingly talented. How can I get the results I want?

the great end of education is to discipline rather than to furnish the mind; to train it to the use of its own powers, rather than fill it with the accumulation of others...

What does it mean that when looking into someone's eyes, that you can see their happiness and pain, when you can see hatred and hurt. Whenever I see a person sad and look into their eyes, I can see their emotional pain. It's so painful that I shed a tear! Please help me?

Do you ever have ones that are in someways connected?

Well I had one on Thursday that everyone was pregnant bar me and I was really jealous and then one last night it followed on and I was actually pregnant except no one else was then pregnant. I was going to have an abortion but I was in two minds about it then I went on a walk with my friend and we were shouting at someone with a licence plate number something sgf, then we walked past a shop and this man was going oh there’s a dead body in there. Then this woman came to my house about something and said I could have an abortion the women left and my mum and sister came home and said , “ooh Katie went through this with Andrea when she was younger.” Then my sister made me take a pregnancy test and finally I was woken up by a phone call.

Whenever i think of something with intricacies, may it be a theory, math problem, or whatever, my mind starts to race. I cant shut it off and i start to hear voices. Its always the same thing: An entire society that masses in the millions that control, and live in my head ( i know it sounds crazy, but stick with me). It seems like i hear every single voice, and it seems like there all arguing about trying to build something that can destroy existance (please dont take this as a joke). Eventually the arguing gets louder and everyone starts screaming. The voices end with the yelling ending once more in unison. Addition to these voices i shiver and shake and become extremely paranoid about everything. Also when this happens i hate to be touched for some reason, and i can become violent if warnings are ignored.

Look i know i sound crazy, or it may seem like this is some stupid joke, but i'm being serious and sincere as the sky and its blue skin.

Is it scizophrenia? Am i sick?

I define an optimist as one who consistantly estimates the probability of a positive outcome to be higher than it really is. I have always thought that having a realistic assessment is the best way to go, but it is preferable to err on the pessimistic side. I think the majority of people are optimists by my definition and suffer as a consequence. They fail in business endeavers because they don't incude in their budget the inevitable errors and accidents, they are not puntual because they don't consider that there might be a traffic jam,etc.

I know people say that fear is there to protect you. I don't agree with that, caution is there to protect you. How do you let go of all fear so that you can live comfortably everyday without it taking control of your life all the time. Im talking fear in general like starting something new, driving a car, dying, fighting etc. There has got to be a way to shut it off. I know many people that can care less about anything. Help please

Why does it seem like people like to pass time with idol chatter?

I hardly meet "Real" people that share my same interest. One of my favorite shows is Frasier. To him everything must mean something and that's my point of view too. My view of God is understanding everything about creation and confirming his existences. I seek truth through all avenues of intelligence.
Religion,Science,Astrology & Psychology. People seem to think that if you know about one topic it cancels the other.

These are topics I think about,not many people relate to this.

Why are these things on my mind?

I have a hard time relaxing sometimes, I always feel like my mind is racing and I always need to be doing something otherwise I feel like a lazy woman. But its so easy for my husband to relax. I wish I could just sit through a whole movie or at least stop my mind from telling me I have tons of stuff to do. The only time I really get to myself is......um lets see, to write this
