Psychology - July 2007

When I'm hurt, I hold it in and not show it. I don't communicate the anger b/c it shows vulnerability and possibly low self-esteem. Then later I get even by consistently being hostile and insulting. Friendships don't last very long as a result. How can I learn to deal in hurtful or angry situations?

Guy was 30, separated and had 2 small children. I was 28, very naive and bored at the time. This guy would follow me around everywhere, buy me gifts and take all my insults. I justified my meanness as "this is what I'm worth? a pathetic loser w/baggage? this is the best that's out there for me? how come cool normal guys aren't following me around?" There's obviously something wrong w/me? Can I have some analysis, please?

It has been proven time and time again in history that emotions can give a negative outcome to a lot of scenerios, i.e. wars, politics, religion, etc. So, why do we choose emotions over logic to make decisions in our daily lives? Yes, we are all human, however, if we are smart enough to build buildings,make mathmatical equations, and go into space, why can't we control our emotions? Is it choice or is it an uncontrollable part of humanity?

Is it that we cry because we can't control our emotions or that we have to have others see us cry for attention?

why do I always lose myself when I fall for somebody? It;s like I let everything in my life come to a halt and let images of "him" take over my head. Why is that and how can I stop being like this?

It is so hard and very debilitating.

If you're fear of something, but whatever the outcome is, your life will not be threatened. Therefore, what is the purpose of fear? There is no need to, right?

I've just been in the shed to get my sunlounger out and there are like five thousand million webs in there. Plus there was webs all over my lounger and I just kept thinking a spider was gonna jump out at me or land on my head. I have since recovered you'll be pleased to know!! Why are spiders so scary to many people? I think it's cos they run fast and you never know where they're gonna be and they look a bit creepy too. I would never kill or hurt one cos I love all living creatures and I know they do a good job eating the flies.

Osho says that anger simply shows that you have great energy...... "A man without anger is impotent, he has no energy. A man who cannot be angry cannot be gentle either."

Ive tried to get myself to a place where I dont feel angry any more. I dont like feeling angry, I want to feel peaceful & for the vast majority of the time I do feel very peaceful.
I avoid listening to 'whats going on in the world' because it stirs up feelings of anger & sadness inside. If someone tries to argue with me they're just wasting their time, they won't get anything back.

How do you feel about feeling angry & being angry? Do you try to avoid it & turn the other cheek? or welcome it with open arms?

Since a few years I've been afraid of driving. When I say ''afraid'' I mean sweating, closing my eyes, screaming, panicking, shacking. It's very bad. But I take it as a handicap not being able to drive cause I live in a village and I realy need to drive in order to work. I just bought a car yesterday. I want to face my own fear of driving. Today I got inside of my car and I was too afraid to put the key inside. I am crying and I don't know what to do. My God, I'm so down because of this situation...:(

You can have clothing, personals, your money etc. This is something completely outside of essential survival things. It's personal and possibly emotionally charged. What is it and why?
