There an individual I never wanted to get involved with and hated every time I had to spend time with after the first time. I felt I had to get involved with this individual for several reasons.

Can't mention here. But what has me curious is he's making the same moves on another individual and it's affecting me. The other individual doesn't pose a physical or attracted problem for me. However, I find myself wanting to warn the other individual or turn the person in I hate so much.

Im not really into much human contact. I dont have many friends, never had a boyfriend, some would describe me as being anti social and a little bit shy. I dont like people touching me but i can handle a hug now and then, but obviously only from people i know well. The thing is, when i imagine myself with 'the guy of my dreams' or whatever im always this bright bubbly crazy person and we are always holding hands and hugging and stuff yet when i really think about it i wouldnt be like that at all. I cant even begin to imagine kissing or even sex, its just too intimate, too touchy. How can i change this so that i can one day have a normal relationship?

There are several things about me that I'm sure there's something wrong but not so sure what it is:
1) I can't keep a job (I've changed jobs four times in a two year span).
2) I'm terribly indecisive, almost to the point of being unable to
3) I frequently experience horrible mood swings
4) I sleep a lot, whenever I can (sometimes more than 12 hours per day) and I get tired easily
5) I eat a lot and is always craving sweet things
6) I can't keep a relationship (anykind) whether it is platonic or something more
7) I'm always sickly (bones ache, easily infected)
8) I have a good life (my family loves me - in their own way, I have relatives who are fond of me and friends who cared about me) but I'm always waking up feeling distressed and hateful being me.

I believe a very close family member is a pathalogical liar. I have caught her in so many lies it is unbelievable, even when confronted about the lie she will stand there and totally deny it, it is kind of creepy how she can believe her own lies. I have talked to a few family members and found out she has lied ever since she was a kid, about anything and everything. The last time I got into it with her about a lie, I said if you don't tell me the truth right now I will never speak to you again, she said "ok fine, it wasn't a lie, it was a mis-representation." Last time I checked they are the same thing. Anyways, should I just ignore the lies or keep confronting her with them or just distance myself? Due to the fact that she is such a close family member it is hard to totally distance myself, yet it is hard to sit there and look at someone lie all the time. I am sorry it is so long.

When you look at something, or someone, do you just know by looking at them/it, or can you "feel" their/it's beauty?

Thank you, and good day. :)

I attended a work-related seminar put on by mental health workers. They had the participants put on headphones attached to a small cassette player and listen to the recording. It consisted of examples of the "voices" that mentally ill people often hear (they wanted us to hear what they hear). The voices said nothing but negative things - "You suck! You're a loser! Everybody hates you! You'll never amount to anything!" etc., repeated over and over. It was quite the experience. My question is : do those patients ever hear good stuff? Do the voices ever give them positive affirmations like "Hey...you're a great person! Hang in there!" "Hope ya have a great day!" etc.,?
Are the voices always so negative? Why wouldn't these imaginary voices tell 'em positive stuff?

Psychologicaly speaking
They have a hard time to admit it.

Never have I got a really good reason to eat meat
We have advanced more then other life
We have the ability to take moral decisions
What the reason for this last for meat
I can’t understand it
Its just food
Who can take life just for the plushier of eating?
Every one accepts that killing a person is immoral.
It doesn’t say we can’t do immoral things like kill, steal, rape… And things like this but we know they are wrong.
What’s so different here?

and sorry for the bad English i try to get better but i have such a hard time with it, Spelling and all

Lately, I've been having lots of anxiety and panic attacks. I know it has something to do with VERY low confidence...someone made a comment on how quiet I was the other day and I kept replaying that moment in my head and I felt so out of control, I got another panic attack. I have NO confidence in myself, and I talked to my mom about it. She feels guilty, she thinks she and my dad contributed to this. They've been pretty harsh towards me over the years. They always put me down and yelled at me, but I know their intentions were good. My dad isn't exactly a warm person, and he thinks scolding always works. I've heard lots of times that if I didn't improve my social skills, I would fail at whatever I tried. Do you think that could've played a part in my anxiety/low-confidence today?

Is it bad that I can control my dreams. Before I got to be I can think of what I want to dream about. And if I fall asleep thinking really hard about what I want to happen, I dream about it. Also I remember all of my dreams.
