Psychology - June 2007

This was my first time I saw a therapist. We talked about my manifestation of anxiety and he gave me some breathing exercises.I feel that therapy increases my attention to my condition so I experience more anxiety afterwards

Is this normal or should I discontinue my therapy?

If you have taken therapy for social anxiety before, did it work?

I mean some gay men, not all, lack the masculine features and typical manly behavior. Do you think, that's what turns them to become gay? So they can associate themselves with another man and hence feel comfortable and "complete"?

Without considering facial expressions. Can you really tell the truth just by looking into ones eyes. Even if you can't see the iris dilation or not.

I just saw a photo of a woman and her face was awful. It was almost like blistered and bumpy like she had a disease and now i cant stop seeing it. Its like a constant screen saver in my mind and when my mind goes blank that sight pops up. And i start to think that she is standing behind me or that if i look in the mirror my face will look like hers or my feet will look like that and i have to keep checking mylsef? Does anyone else get things like this? Im sure it will go away soon but at the moment i feel really uneasy..

I realised that i get frustrated easily these few months over stupid things. Like the other time, i was reading a my biology textbook on the eye and suddenly i had a panic attack. Why?
Because it was saying that our eyes can only focus on an area at a time. There's nothing wrong about it but my mind ventured into why we can't focus on multiple things. I felt limit. I felt so helpless. And so scared. Please help.

When I listen to my music, I have these thoughts of people doing dances & movements that it's impossible to do. & I have to be able to concentrate on the dance & the music of the song, & I don't like to be interrupted when I'm listening to my music. Another ritual I have is that I have to look at pictures of my favorite celebrities & friends in order to block out the images of people I'm upset with or dislike.

Is this creative or crazy & weird?

It doesn't seem to matter whether the long hair looks good (or is even healthy or shiny). Why is long hair on a woman so important to guys?

From people who have worked in the field of Psychology or currently taking it in college I have a few questions. What Credential's do you need to get into a good school for Psychology? What is the best school for it? For those of you who work in that field, what are its con's and pro's? How much do you earn?

I know I asked alot :), but I really think this is my future career.

Thanks

I somtimes just feel like giving up. Nothing has worked for me and I have failed miserably in life.

I got married and my marriage did not work out. I have a 15 year old daughter and I gave custody to her father. Now, she is not doing well. She is currently living with her grandmother in another state. My ex-husband moved due to job reasons.

I went to stay with her and left and now she does not want to talk to me much. She does talk to my mother and sometimes my brother. I live in another state.

My job situation is so funny. I am working at a contract job and looking for a permanent job. I have gone on 4 interviews and none have worked out. I am tired of applying for positions. I am educated and have experience but?

I feel left out at work because everyone talks about their familes (husbands and kids) and I can't join in even though I have a daughter.

I just feel like putting my head down and just saying "I can't take it anymore."

My husband looks at porn on the internet. I don't mind. But my coworkers talk about how disgusting porn is and how disgusting men are that look at it. I get uncomfortable because I don't know what to think when so many influential people are saying all the time how disgusting they feel it is. Am I right to feel like my husband can look?
