Psychology - September 2007

If a guy grows up without a father in his life, because the father abandoned the family, and he had only a mom and some older brothers, how do you think this affects his outlook on life?
How would this affect his relationship with his older siblings, especially if one of those siblings was at least 10 yrs older?
Would the constant need for acceptance and affection drive him to the brink of suicide eventually and if he decided NOT to commit suicide, how would he fulfill his need for affection?
And also If he had kids, would he reject them?

That's how I feel right now. I guess, people come in to our lives at certain times and things happen. Some stick with you for years, others...seem like they would but that's not the fact.
I'm about to lose my friends. I'm sick of Trying so hard to get them back. Seems like a one-sided effort. But I guess that's what happens in life. What has happened to you similarly?

I argue a lot. And when I do it doesnt click in my head that I am until the person Im arguing with gets pissed off. I sometimes dont even realize I am arguing and I even catch myself arguing the opposite of something I was just arguing for! My friends get mad at me all the time, but I cant help it. I need to know if this might possibly be a mental problem or something...

# 1 all living things are magic.
90% of stories after death are the same and its not the dying of the mind because 90% of people wouldent waste their time making up a story identical to others .
# 2 In 80% of the stories they say they have a more clearer mind than ever when their brain dead.
# 3 Ive prayed for an answer and a verse poped in my head that i never read or known of.I found two whole pages all anwers to my prayer.
# 4 say we can make a atom and form a person so what.who is making us form in a reproductive system.

I beleive in god I just rather be 100% than 90%

When my mother was dying, she told me, "You have got to stop being a martyr!"... I understand that it means "one who sacrifices themselves for others".
I find that I sometimes focus so much on doing for others, that I neglect ME....which I know is not healthy.

But in groups of 3+ I am perfectly comfortable. I'm just so afraid of that "uncomfortable silence" when no one is talking and it's really awkward.

A new teacher was trying to make use of her psychology courses. She started her class by saying, "Everyone who thinks they're stupid, stand up!" After a few seconds, Little Johnny stood up. The teacher said, "Do you think you're stupid, Little Johnny?" "No, ma'am, but I hate to see you standing there all by yourself!"
