I try to avoid people as much and as often as possible and when im outside i feel like im walking around in a daze, not really in reality. I often stare at people and just think what is the point of life? Even when im out living my life i feel like im not really living it. Im just existing. Whats wrong with me?

I would much rather spend my time alone and dread even having to see my own family. I feel like its a chore instead of something to be happy about. I won't even talk to my friends anymore. I really hate chit chatting and being around people. Am i selfish? Why is it that my own family dosent interest me let alone strangers?

Many people seem to know that these happened, but no one can remember who was responsible for them. Additionally, the details often vary, so maybe there were multiple instances of similar experiments?

Rebecca listened carefully as the winds howled and rustled. The gentle patter of rain followed. She opened her window. The sounds of autumn rain and wind grew louder. The rain fell like needles falling from the skies and hitting the hard cold wet cement and melting into the tiniest of puddles. As each drop of rain hit the windows they trickled down to inevitable destination. Her mind was at at peace. Just the sound of rain was relaxing, she couldn't think of anything else.

Like each of the rain drops every person is inevitably destined to meet destination – death. In between life would have certain surprises. Some are meant for happiness some are meant for sadness. Rebecca's life was tinged with sadness at the very beginning. As her mother has abandoned her as a baby. Ever since then she had longed for maternal love. Despite her yearning she had never expressed her feelings to her father, due to his unresolved issues with Rebecca's mother.

I read in abook that dreaming is a self theraphy our unconcious minds create for us when it feels a need.That we really need to express something in a certain way which in our regular lifes we are unable to express.So does it mean if we have no dreams at night that we are perfectly happy with our lifes?

here i want people to list their words of wisdom...im listing mine:

- it's impossible to teach a man something that he thinks he already know.

- who knows dont speak, who speaks dont know.
- if u knew the world would end up tomorrow, u'd plant a tree today.
-when each kid borns, its the prove that God havent lost the hopes in humans.
-when the day doesnt dawn, then our hopes r over.
- the only man who never made a mistake is the one who never did anything at all

How were you taught about sex and sexual desire? Do you think culture comes into it? Do you think our parents' attitude to it is very influential?

I am on a child psychology course, and would value your opinions

i feel like the girl in taylor swift's "tied together with a smile." i'm falling apart on the inside and no one knows, because on the outside i've still been able to maintain this hard shell.
i don't exactly know what is wrong with me, but quite honestly, this state that i am in scares the living daylights out of me. i feel like i've lost myself. i've become someone else, someone who i don't even know: the person that i used to be no longer exists.
i don't know what to believe in anymore. it's all bull s***.
i feel like i need to do something to get myself back. i feel like my passions are all still inside of me somewhere, but i don't know where to look, or how to go about finding them.
i feel like i'm completely falling apart.
i have become completely devoid of all motivation and drive.
i feel like my world is falling apart and i don't know how to fix it.

My dad tried killing himself today and wouldn't talk to any of us because he was embarrassed. I'm a nanny and I want to visit him tomorrow..my aunt said he would be okay with it. Anyway...the family I nanny for is really self absorbed...I'd have to be in a coffin to get a day off from them. I want to see him tomorrow...I don't even feel like going to work because I am so worried..I just want to see him so I need to come up with a good excuse...I told them what happened today..that all I knew was that he was in the hospital for "psychological reasons"...at least that's what my aunt told me..I finally got the real reason out of her. She's going to see him tomorrow and she said that he would be willing to see me. I don't know if I should tell my boss that...she totally freaks out when I'm not there..even though she doesn't work...she just doesn't want to watch her kid. I want to call her now but it's midnight so I have to wait till morning. I'm really stressed and don't know what to do.

I have noticed that I sometimes get anxious when I have many options to choose from (usually with major life choices). If I make one choice, I get anxious thinking that I should have chosen one of the other many other options. So sometimes the only way I can live with myself is to convince myself that I really don't like the options that I rejected. This makes me feel better about the choice I made. If I don't do this, then whenever I am acting on the choice that i did make, I feel like I should be doing something else.
I also sometimes impair myself. For example, I might try to sabotage myself in some area or purposely limit myself so then I can justify to myself why I am not doing that particular thing.
I am dysfunctional if I don't do these things. I only feel okay devoting myself to one thing if I have somehow justified to myself why I am not doing something else.

Yesterday I went to Half Price books on Capitol Hill here in Seattle. I thought I would read the GRAPES OF WRATH
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Grapes_of_Wrath
Haven't read it in 29 years.
(Another coincidence...I was reading Grapes of Wrath when John Steinbeck Died(Dec 20, 1968))
Bought a copy.
I don't listen to Radio very much at all these days.
About an hour ago I was driving into Georgetown from West Seattle.
Scanning through radio stations I hear Woody Guthrie
http://www.woodyguthrie.org
on KEXP
http://kexp.org/home.asp
And The song they were playing was
Tom Joad
