Other than hormonal fluctuations?

Someone in my family is this way. She's nice and supportive but she's also a negative person, depressing, lazy, somewhat selfish (albeit of a subtle way) among other negativity. She brings people down. The look on her face sometimes makes you want to jump off a bridge and she's also one of the most passive aggressive people in the world. How do I deal with this besides drinking? :)

Death Wish

Sometimes, just to wake up to another day is devastating
Is that because life is hell and there’s no heaven waiting
Or that I’m uninsured and can’t afford depression medication
Attempted suicide with full explanation and no hesitation
My written reasons for the act was twenty four pages long
But no one actually read it all before saying I was wrong
Save your holy book quotes, your prayers and your songs
It’s not believable to me and so it won’t help me get along
My soul is a casualty is the war against irrationality
Sorry if I’m pessimistic because I’m living in reality
Choose illusion or despair, often optimism is a fallacy
It’s logic doesn’t add up to me the way it has to be
To make it through my multilayered mental screening
Working at life, but missed the meeting about the meaning
Met different kinds of people, done twice my share of reading
But nothing I’m seeing suggest any purpose to this being
An unevenly contested existence we never even requested
The researcher is incompetent if we are being tested
We’re orphans of the universe, if God created then left it
If life’s not worth it, I may revert to my death wish

I am extremely shy.
I have no friends.
I spend lunch in the bathroom stall or sometimes I go off campus and walk around the neighborhoods near the school.
Most days in class, I'll go the entire period without saying anything.
this is not my personality, therefor I cannot just accept being this person.
I used to be very outgoing and had a ton of friends.
I became depressed and isolated myself from other people. I pushed all of my friends away, some of them moved.
Now I've just forgotten how to use my voice.
PLEASE, can ANYONE give me advice on how to break out of my shell and be more outgoing???
I'm a sophmore in high school, I really don't want to waste the whole high school experience. I was like this last year.
I really appreciate it!!!!!!!

I am only 18 but I have horribly constant fears of dying. I have had these thoughts since I was even younger, around 12. They have become increasingly worse, I think about it everyday. I get a strange feeling in the pit of my stomach everytime I think about it. I am scared I will wake up and my parents will be dead. That or I just won't wake up one day. I have tried thinking of other things, focusing on life, but it just doesn't work. I am a happy person in general which makes this strange to me. I just can't shake the feeling no matter what I do. Should I get help? I'm scared to tell my parents because they may think I am making things up for attention.

say if a person just wants to be obscure, and choose the people he associates with......and he doesnt want to mix with other cultures, just what hes familiar with. own ethics, own race etc.

is this so wrong if your not doing any harm to anyone?- and how do you accomplish this? and what do you do if the people you dont want anything to do with, intrude in your life?

theres this wierd girl at my job shes real wierd and says shes been to psychic school. she does this trick where she asks you a question tells you to think about it, writes the answer down, rumbles up the sheet ofpaper. Then she takes another one and tells you to tell her the answer. when you tell her she writes it down and just to make sure it wasnt an x I told her to write an x below the answers. shwe did and did the same thing 3 times. Then when she uncrumbled the paper they had the same answer. The one i wrote the x on even had the x. could she really have read my mind. The wierd thing is I was thinking lisandra for the first answer and she misunderstood and wrote lashonda. but the answer still poped up with the x. She says she dosnt even no how she did it and she just closes her eyes and the answer pos up in her haid. is this maic or a trick

What makes people go from crying little innocent babies, to becoming sociopathic, dangerous killers who do all of the things I mentioned above.

I want to know if it's society to blame, or if those pepole just snap from pressures, or just it's in their character.

We obviously are faced with many social ills in our society today and even worldwide, and we never know who we're really dealing with, as people can be hard to read or figure out.

So what is it that makes people do these things and turn evil?

Is it easier for men or women to be this way?

Are people born evil or good, or just like an empty slate?

Obviousyl as we have worldwide companies and our society is well established, lots of intellectual things are going on, which requires a functional mind, so it's dumb to say that evil is a very powerful and prevalent force in the world, but it's definitely there. It has it's role.

So what makes people like this, and how do we spot them out and deal with them?

in a way that surprised even YOU at the time?

Did you speak up, or shut up?

And if so, was it a newfound strength you discovered in yourself...or a weakness?

Do you think a person displaying self-deprecating humor is a very secure person or one who is more of a "I'll get myself before you do" person?

Out of sheer curiosity...
does anyone else happen to have this problem? --

At night, I'm raped by a couple thousand demonic spirits at one time. I am abducted and carried off to Hell on a nightly basis where I engage in many carnal activities and enjoy the pleasures of demonic playthings, sometimes against my will. I have oft' consulted hand-crafted ouija boards that have confirmed my sick, twisted fears -- I am, in fact, a demon. And will continue to be one for the next 51 years, according to Nysfarth and Borisovna. I am one of 66 people in the world to have this problem and share in this magical, hellish nocturnal delight...are any of you the other sixty-five people whom I seek?
And what advice do you have for me?

It seems to me that a lot of people you meet are very unhappy and are full of anger. Just look at all of the "creature comforts" We have now compaired to just 100 years ago. (Dvd players, computers, video games with state of the art graphics, mp4 players,ipods, Nice cars etc etc) We have clean working conditions. My grandad used to do 14 hour shifts down a coal mine and it was bloody hard work. So my question is. Why are a lot of people so miserable these days. We dont know we are born compaired to someone who lived just 100 years ago.
