Psychiatry is expensive and this is why I am here. I believe that talking(emailing) about your issues with a person who does not know you can help you solve problems. keeping things annonymous makes for honest comments. Does anyone want to here my problems. I set up a bogus e-mail just for this. I will be reviewing the responses (even the dumb ones) and then i will post another question titled "would you be my psychiatrist part 2" with further info. This may sound insane but I bet having someone disect my life will help both parties. p.s. I am not crazy. I am a family man with a child, a loving wife, a job and a college degree.

I've been wondering about this for a long time. I find myself sometimes respecting certain people (regardless of gender) more than others because of their appearance.

Of course when it comes to people who are disgustingly ignorant or people who are astonishingly stupid, I tend to see these people as who they really are. Also people who have an amazingly robust personality or who are incredibly smart find a way past my hamartia, which is a good thing. However, this isn't always the case for me.

I know that it's wrong, and despite my efforts to abstain from it, it's a natural cognitive process. I have actually come a long way from how I used to be, but it's still an existing issue within myself.

Do any of you judge by appearance instead of personality sometimes? Be honest.

I have a nagging feeling that I need to be single to concentrate on my own life. Have you ever felt this way & did you leave the relationship you were in? I feel like I am being terribly selfish & yet the feeling is always with me to leave.

blue is the least appetizing colour, and red is the most vibrant, and appetizing colour. But, instead people are often picking blue.

The minute someone starts to get close to me, I start to act weird!! I set them tests ( secretly) to see how much they do like me. I will push, and push to see how much they will take before they leave. Of course 9/10 do. This then confirms to me that they did not like/love me as much as they said, and that I am not good enough for them. I have met a great guy, and do not want to follow the same pattern. I have spoken to him about it a bit, and he is understanding, but I feel if I could maybe understand why I do it, I may be able to stop. I do not want to screw this up, with me constantly wondering why he with me, when he could get someone so much better, and then almost testing his love for me to see if he will go? Any one out there understand me?

What I mean is do you believe that when a person is drunk they are more likely to tell you the truth or if people use that as an excuse to be more open and not feel like there being judged because they are drunk? Im just curious.

I have a psychology case study & I need to explain how a psychologist from each of the 6 approaches in psychology would explain the behavior of the person in this situation

so i need your help please!!
This is the situation

Jane was a member of the girs' soccer team during her freshman and sophomore years, but did not get to play in many games. She worked hard and believed she was improving, but the coach never seemed to notice. As a result, when she became a junior, she didn't join the team. Her friends, who did get a lot of playing time, were disappointed and tried to convince her to join again. She told them it was no use; she had worked hard for two years and had nothing to show for it. For weeks they tried to persuade her. Finally, she made a deal with them. She would join for the first few weeks and if she got to play in any games, she would remain on the team.

K so i don't want anyone thinking they're doing my homework for me!! i have some ideas!!

People are always telling me, "things will get better". That's crap. Ever since I was born my life has kept on getting worst. Grade 8 was the first year I started harming myself for failing school (yes I had a tutor, yes I gave up a VERY large portion of my life to bring my marks, yes I studied). Then EVERYONE told me that high school was going to be fun. Grade 9 came and I first started therapy. Then Grade 10 came and I was first diagnosed with clinical depression. Grade 11 has come and I was hospitalized for suicide prevention. I hate my life so much. I am either at school failing or at home with people trying to kill each other. I hate who I am so even being alone is awful. Why is my life always getting worse and how can I make it better without medication (yes I do have anti-depression medication)? To be honest, if my life doesn't improve within the next year or two, I am bailing out.

He began his study by simply placing two lines of M ands M’s in front of different aged children. The M and M’s were placed far apart in the first line and closely together in the second line. Piaget found that children between the ages of 2years 6 months old and 3years 2 months could correctly tell the relative number of objects in the 2 rows apart whereas children between the ages of 3years 2 months and 4 years 6 months indicated that the longer line with M and M’s placed far apart had more. This is because it is believed that children loose the ability to conserve as they grow and then later regain it. After 4years 6months children seemed to once again distinguish correctly. Piaget’s results found that younger children have the ability to conserve; this shows that logical capacity for cognitive operations exists earlier than acknowledged. Young children can be equipped with certain qualities for cognitive operations depending on how long the structure of the task is. Children develop explicit understanding at ages five thus the child will count the M and M’s to decide which row has a higher number of M and M’s.

is it normal to feel fat when everyone tells you you're not
to feel alone in a crowd of people
to feel like there is no one you can trust
??
or am I insane?

why do people take trust for granted and treat it as something that is dispensable when it's not?
