Psychology - October 2007

Do you smirk when you compare your score to others?

Do you feel you have a certain electronically prowess when "top contributor" is displayed below your "hidden" identity?

Do you really feel qualified to answer medical questions? Are you ignorant enough to ask medical questions and expect and true medical diagnosis?

I'm curious.

When someone talks down to you like you're stupid? Condescending tone? What's the motive in that? How should you react back?

I know that sometimes little boys develop an Oedipus complex and little girls have...theirs, I forgot the name of it, but do little gay children develop the opposite complex? IE, would a young girl who will later be interested in other girls have an Oedipus complex and want her mother's affection the same way a boy might?

I've been told so many times that I won't get anywhere in life because i'm the beauty without brains.
Thats probably true.
(I do have my moments though)
xD
I want to be something when I grow up though.
What can I do to become more productive in my work?
To become more intelligent?

I really hate it when people say that about me.
And the fact that its true.
So if you could, please help me.

Merci [=

I've just been in the last few months getting myself so worked up worrying and thinking if my life is good, are my friends people I want to be with, am I happy, who am I, etc. And thinking about what kind of person I am. Most of my friends are girls so I get worried they are going to turn me gay (some people think I am...but I'm not...just really shy and conceded) or more feminine since I am around them so much. Since they are girls they go shopping quit a bit, but I just come along for the food and electronic stores and stuff. Can someone just tell me if it's normal? Or should I change just to make me seem more "normal" in other people's eyes? I just worry and think about every aspect of my life.

In the short life you have lived so far. What is the most exciting or most fullfilling you have accomplished? Name only one thing.

On Monday I had an intense Claustraphobia attack. Ever since then I have been having serious onsets of intense anxiety. Anxiety that I can not overcome. Do you know of any ways to overcome this and get on with my life?

I asked a question about suicide (long story, related to my depression) and a user said that I was faking the question because my avatar is smiling and that I have an account on 2 social websites, Myspace and Facebook. How the heck can someone judge another individual's life based on such little information? Why do people even make judgments over the internet anyways? Can't people go without judging other individuals? Anyone else have a stupid judgment story

Darkness is all around me
I see a light up ahead
It’s a straight line
I follow it
It’s getting further and further away
I run
The light diminishes into the darkness
I am stuck in the darkness all alone
I reach out in front of me for something to hold
I only feel emptiness
I am all alone
Alone to fight what lays before me
I can’t see what it is but I know its there
Waiting for me to make one wrong move
Before it attacks my soul and makes my heart bleed
One more time ….
I walk into the darkness alone
I fight this fight alone
In the end we are all alone

I have seriously been considering suicide and have attempted it a few times, but I can never seem to summon the power to kill myself. How do people gather all that negative energy to actually go through with it?

I was in the mental hospital & when I asked the nurse for assistance with something, she said, "Sounds like you have OCD! You're demanding." But I asked politely for help & she acted like she was too busy to help. I asked, "May you please..." I don't remember what I asked. but it was asked in the "May you please" format in a normal tone of voice.

At first he was asked by the psychiatrist to take one tablet of prozac once in a day. but he did not takes it. he is being really paranoid, tension, taking shower for more than one hour, washing his foot very often, always changing his course in the university and starts shaking his head (looks like it was unconscious) after he checked something and mumbling to himself. so i went and see the psychiatrist for him that day and he was asked to increase the pill to 3 tablets a day. does Prozac really works on him? what can i do to help him better?

Why do most people in this world have poor judgment?
Why are most people in this world prejudiced ?


Can we stop being judgmental, can we take a moment to think and VERIFY things carefully before jumping into conclusions?

I am in love with the woman that I call my wife, and I am in love with my three year old son (not in a sick twisted way as some will probaly think when they read this), they are everything that makes my world go 'round.
I came from a very disfunctional home (as did my wife - she deals with her issues better than I do), and think that coming from where I did is part of my problem. I never really learned how to be productive with my anger instead of distructive. I have NEVER laid a hand on either of them with ill intentions - I'm not a violent person. My anger reveals itself in the form of words that are hurtful- I am so tired of hurting them; to be honest, I think I hurt myself more than I hurt them. There is no reason why they should feel like they are treading on thin ice in our own home. I don't want to hurt them anymore and am afraid of my wife leaving me. It is with a heavy heart and soiled concience I have come here for some advice with my anger issues.

I think it is ridiculous to believe that people who evolved in completely different parts of the world all would be exactly the same. If you look around, it's clear that some races are better at some things than others, I won't get into them though, we all know them. It's also clear by simply the way we look, from the proportions of some body parts to others, to the way we build muscle, we are all different, and you're a brainwashed idiot if you think we're not. Why is research that attempts to show this considered racist? If we have obvious visual differences, why can't we have mental and biological differences? Why is society so sensitive to this subject?
