for a day, i didnt relaise what to do about a problem, i was really confused but then i realised that when my bf gets upset, i am to cheer him up and then ask whats wrong. i didnt. the next day i realised that and i feel so stupid and dumb and so bad for it.
He doesnt still want to talk about the problem, just tells me to drop it, normally we would sort problems out, but its different with this one. he just doesnt want to know about it and forget about it. i dont really want to do this as i cant move foreward with a problem unsolved.

I dont know how to treat this. he doesnt want to talk about it, if i do, he gets annoyed and really upset, and just expects me to just forget about it. later i would want to talk about it so its sorted, right now, im actin as if im ok, when im really not so i wont upset him. i feel depressed but im ignoring how i feel.
I just want things to be and feel ok, for the both of us.
What do i do know? How can get him to talk to me? Hes sensitive n easily annoyed

say if someone moved places (as in schools, towns, etc) a lot during childhood, would they be more vulnerable to developing mental illnesses as adults?

Like if you are angry with someone, or like someone.

being childless? We have tried for three years and no luck. I am very upset about it and am looking for a way to learn to get on with my life and forget about kids. I am a substitute teacher and not so sure that is very smart or not. I don't really know if it is helping or hurting me.

Hi,

I wonder if there is a reason to accept favours or if "favour" means future debts and should be radically avoided.

I am interested in reading different opinions about this.

Regards.

Is it a social habit or are they "trying to forget". Prescribed medication is involved and it does have a effect on the persons behavior and personality. To the point where you really do not want to be around them because they tend to want conflict. They are fine without the drinking.

I finally moved out of my boyfriend’s house share, which turned into a complete nightmare towards the end. We found somewhere really nice; gym, sauna and steam room free to use downstairs. And a nice two bed apartment, our room a really good size. But we are living with a complete Wa*ker! At first he just got on my nerves, cos he is really anti-social. Example, he requested that we leave the living room when he gets back after work so he can be alone with his ‘much beloved telly’. Obviously we ignored him. He calls the landlord if we have people over and he gets on ALL my nerves.
But what should I do? Stick it out? Get him out? Push him out?
Please help

I can't eat Vegs and Fruit, I tried my best the past 5 years and I can't, I hate it's texture and I can't swallow any kind of Fruit or Vegs and I really want to lead a healthy life.

I did a research and I found out that it may be some kind of phobia, so I'm considering psychiatry since we don't have hypnotherapy here in our town.

Could psychiatry help me?

I think that I may have some sort of mental problem. I constantly wish I were dead. I hate everything about life. I dont know why either. I dont even have that difficult of a life. I hate my job, I hate my relationship with my family and my fiance. I find myself wishing I were still a child with no worries. Im ugly and fat and thats why my fiance wont even look at me in a desireable way. I really dont know what else to do. I try to find ways to escape life for a little bit, like mess around online or read a book. Then I find myself remembering how I feel. Im not looking for pity, because I have no reason. I guess I just wanna know what to do when life overwhelms you so bad that it seems unliveable. I'm not suicidal, because I dont feel that I could actually kill myself. Im only 21 and I want to live life, I just wish it wasnt so hard. And no I didnt lead a sheltered life. My mom was an alcoholic, but I dont know if that has anthing to do with it. she didnt beat me

Is anyone reading this familiar with reparative therapy? Do they believe that crying (by sinning perverts) is an expression of guilt over their sins? thanks.

l always thought that the loss of a parent would be easier to get over than it was. l was very close to my mother, she died quite suddenly (within a couple of days notice) about 8 months ago. l did spend a lot of time with her before she died, l actually looked after her, but because she was sick so much, l just thought she'd get better this time too. The doctors gave us no warning or anything, and l was so angry and felt cheated of the time we could have had with her if we'd known......for a couple of months l had very terrible depression.....it's easier now, but l still miss her so much. Also l'm 23. ls this normal? What should l do? l don't have any siblings either.

And if so, what do you think has caused this?

I used to feel protected by trees. used to think flowers were fairies. I used to be in love with the moon and the ocean. I miss those feelings, they made me feel at peace.
I suppose in my case the growing responsibility at work and computer addiction (lol), takes time from reveries and enchantment.

What about you?

I'm reading 'love in the time of cholera' and the man in the book says he defines himself as a person who gets dressed in the dark.
what would you pick if you had to choose one characteristic to decribe yourself?
