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?

Just think about it ..... There was nothing then all of a sudden, a big bang, the Universe is created. Its expanding everywhere a more then the speed of light. Where did the energy some from to do this "Big bang",Do scientists even know? Anyhow gas and atoms come out of this big bang as well. a couple billion years later the galaxies and solar systems are forming. Why would these things form? What is the point of a Universe creating itself, I believe it was created on purpose for life, Dont you guys agree?To continue, some atoms started turning into rna for some reason. Then that rna started turning into cells. Again I ask why? If scientists can explain that to me I would accept it.Then cells started turnign into fish. to live in water. Then one day those fish with gills moved onto land? How did fish go onto land to live with gills? Can a fish in our generation do that if it wanted to and survive? Why would'nt humans evolve infinite life?

Also, I must say that it is NOT a fear of appearing in public or forgetting my lines. It IS a fear of commiting too powerfully to any church. Though I love my Christian friends in the church, I know realistically that any church can turn on you at any time with almost no reason. What if they turn on me just two days before the opening performance? Emotionally, my anger would prevent me from wanting to serve them. Am I nuts, or just being realistic?

Ive been listening to a song by Aly and AJ called 'Chemicals React'

These parts of the lyrics confuse me:
But the planets all aligned
When you lucked into my ayes
And just like that
The chemicals react

I know its just a song but...
Planets? Can someone explain

There is something really strange in my love life...I have had 2 long term relationships and both have been with guys who have one or two brothers but NO SISTERS. Now, I have recently met another guy I like and guess what? He comes from a house of brothers..NO SISTERS. Does anyone know of any characteristics these 'sisterless' men might have that triggers something in the attraction process? Thanks!

I occasionally facilitate meetings for small groups of people (about 20) about 3 times a month. I show slides that they view while I narrate. Fortunately, I don't have to face them as I do it. I'm terrified in front of large crowds, and I don't know how I'd cope if I had to give such a meeting. I do pretty fair with these small groups; I stumble occasionally, but only because I used to stutter as a child, which I've almost completely overcome myself. But I still get very nervous.

How do you cope with your nervousness and tension when speaking before a group of any size? What do you have to fight against? Hands shaking? Blushing? Sweating? Stuttering?

How do you get around all that? Do your techniques help? Tell us your stories.

games at you?
i find that, (& im not trying to be funny) that 'white brits' that do this a lot to me.
but i dont care for them either, whether they live or they die...i sometimes imagine a giant helecopter, with a giant fishing net attached to it, then i round up all these haters and mind games people in the giant fishing net.....the fishing net is sealed shut. then the chopper is flown over the atlantic ocean in the middle somewhere, then the net, containg all the merry mind games folk and the antagonisers,is released into the ocean...dropped from high above, into the ocean..then i watch as they try to swim contained within the giant fishing net..

this is how these people make me feel about them.i aim to emigrate eventually..but mean while, how do i handle these people who want to bother me & my life, with their unwanted presence & their stupid, pathetic mind games?

how can i not give in to anger if this happens to me constantly?
until i leave uk, how can i deal with them?

portrayed to others. what can you do if that makes you angry, especially if you feel the portrayal is wrong?

also how do i handle a person who percieves me like mel gibson, and this makes you confused and angry, because you don't want to be percieved as that?

for one, i don't like mel gibson, and second, i don't look like him....so are they saying my characteristics are the same as his?
can anyone advise?

I need a good definition of the term 'corporate shark' (the ruthless manager who climbs up the corporate ladder through lies and stepping over other) I want to write something about my manager who is leaving . I call him a 'corporate dolphin' (new term in industrial psychology) But first I have to give a good definition of CORPORATE SHARK and then say that he is the contrary.
Google searches dont help :-( as I need an eloquent definition of the term.

I want to bring on a "flashback". By this, I mean I want to attempt to remember as much about a certain time as I possibly can. I know that the sense of smell is supposedly the best at drawing on memory, but does anyone have any tips on how I can uncover some precise details about an old memory?

Thanks in advance!

You know, those people who will go as far as inventing a new reality, reacting on things that didn't occur, blowing things out of proportion and even go as far as accusing others of whatever suits their sick master plan just to make themselves look good or important in the eyes of others... or so they think...

I realized that ever since I was a child,I've pushed people away.Either by cruel remarks/teasing or negative sarcasm.People pointed it out to me early in life and I just brushed it off.When I did do it,I though it was funny/cool..now I realize all I did was alienate myself /make enemies.I don't have any friends or healthy relationships and the ones I ruined I don't think I'll get back.I've been like this for as long as I can remember......Why am I this way? Is there anyone like me?

I seem to have this problem where I feel pain more easily than others do. It feels like a crushed heart. Yes, definitely a crushed heart. I feel this way whenever I see a sad TV show, movie, read a sad book, or when I feel sad myself. I know this is supposedly normal, but is there any way to help let go of this pain quickly? Instead of just forgetting about it cause I always seem to remember things I don't want to remember.
Any answers would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

i'm doing a year-long final proj.. due in like 2 mths.. and i realise there's so many freaking things i dont know.. or dont fully understand, that i dont know how to start asking.

i'm rather introverted, and i'm really afraid of asking stupid questions.. i'v asked my grp mates some before, like, what is it for? etc etc when i'm supposed to know it before starting the proj.

do you think i shld start asking the stupid questions now?

the internet spews up some really chimology that i dont think i can understand, given this short period of time..

and erm.. what do you think of ppl who ask stupid questions? liek their brain is not working and they ask 'huh what is BCR?' when the answer is on the whiteboard but the person nv notices it?
