I've always felt so self-conscious about the way I look - the high school I go to has girls that essentially look like barbie dolls walking down the halls.
Yes, I'm smart and all that fun stuff, I know I'll go on to lead a more successful life than some of these girls; but I can't help feeling ridiculously ugly.
My mom always tells me that I'm a pretty girl, but that's only by myself - when you stick me next to someone else, I'm mortified by my looks. It's gotten to the point that when someone more "attractive", per se, talks to me; I can hardly make eye contact with them, unless I know them well.
Is this normal to feel so insufficient about my looks? I'm tall, skinny, all the stuff most of the "pretty" girls would want to be, yet I feel as though my face is an incredible hindrance to everything else I have.

Psychologically, will this screw me up? Or am I just imagining things?

It seems more like an excuse to me. People seem to use this as a crutch or as and excuse to keep them in various modes of depression without having to make the difficult, mature decisions it takes to survive in this tough world. What do you think?

Think of it like this, alcohol is bad because it cause deaths and crimes, even if it’s healthy for a person to have 4 ounces of wine every day. Drugs are bad because they are being abused, even if we use them as a medicine.
How can you call dislike a hate?

Ok, a friend of mine sent me a txt message a few minutes ago saying that he was seriously thinking about committing suicide tonight. He lives over 4 hours away from me and I don't know any of his friends in the town in which he lives. I don't know who to tell, what to do, or what to tell him. Please help me!

Can someone be so obsessed with the want for obsessive compulsive disorder that they convince themselves they really have it? And, if you convince yourself you really have OCD, would the doctor diagnose you as OCD? I mean, don't you just state your obsessions/compulsions, and the doctor compares it to the symptoms and diagnoses?

I am tired of the people I hang out with and being centered around parties and drinking, what is a way to meet new people? I am a pretty social person and don't have too much trouble meeting people but when my entire social life has been based around parties for the last 4 years (i am 20 years old). I guess its just time for me to grow up but my friends are continually going downhill and starting to get into harder drugs, I have to get away. Thanks advance to anyone who responds. I think I am transferring to an out of state college too.

I have a feeling that the one of the main reasons i have a myspace is for people to notice me more. I am 15 years old by the way. I go on there everyday for more than 5 hours constantly refreshing my page for comments, messages, etc. I would take a lot of pics on my moms cell and decorate it and post it on myspace. Then, I would delete it b/c only 1 person would normally comment and it's always the same person. I would comment other people's pics but they don't comment mine and I feel used b/c of it. I would delete the new pic and take numerous amounts of pics again on my mom's cell. I don't know what to do. Is this am obsession/addiction? If it is how can I stop. And am I trying too hard for people to notice me?

The reason why I ask this question a billion times: everyone has called me ugly since I was little.
My mother thinks I'm not thin enough; my dad hates my hair; my aunt thinks I look like a man; my friends are....just take what you get with boys; boys I like glare at me.
Amidst all this, the only thing that every gave me joy was academia, so I worked hard and got compliments on my work. But while I feel good in terms of education and kindness ( I love cooking for people), others still don't stop nagging. And whenever I get angry and start crying, sometimes, they make me feel like I'm shallow and only into looks or when I point out a cute guy...
I still care for my family and friends, but how can I sit them down and make them understand that they are making me feel like I'm only worth marrying some fat troll.

I look at myself and I see how I have all these friends and it's just the same people every single day for the next three years (i'm a freshman), but what else? this seriously doesn't give me a push for wanting to continue going...it just doesn't...it'll be the same. I don't even know what I want to do in college. I find myslef lowing interest in even trying in school thas why my grades lowered becausethere's no goal ...nothing that i'm striving for. it's just sort of empty learning. I wish I had a goal and knew what I wanted to be but I don't. why don't i? then even if i know what to be then what? college then "career". Then what? work for the next days of my life. of my life. oh yeahthat really makes me look forward to it. *sarcasm* but seriously then what? i die. and boom i'm forgotten forever. like what the hell?! what's the point? if you could answer this question, give me a reason to tell me that we're all NOT just doing basically the same thing.

I feel like people around me are trying to suck the life from me. Like some kind of emotional vampire. I thought most people are good but it seems i have some problems with a few in places i care to be. I dont feel like they are 'building me up' but like they are trying to take me down, use me as some kind of scapegoat and suck the goodness and inspiration out of me. Why do people try to use me as an outlet for their angst and aggravations? I just want to be happy and live my life.

In the field of psychology it is a relatively new term given to someone who suffers from multiple disorders, usually a combination of schizophrenia and other mental conditions, like mood disorders.

Would or could bipolar disorders (or even something like Asperger’s Syndrome) be included in this newer group association? Or does bipolar disorder still stand alone as a specifically defined mental condition?

If so, how many different symptoms can be classified under the Schizoaffective Disorder label?

I ask because I know of a friend of a friend who has been diagnosed differently by several different doctors and the last diagnosagefrom a VA psychologist, was that he suffered from Schizoaffective Disorder. Before this he was diagnosed as bipolar by a county psychologist.

You ever ride with someone who freaks out when you drive through a tunnel? Shouldn’t this over-reactive symptom be given it's own name? Perhaps be classified as ‘Carpool Tunnel Syndrom’?

Most sociopath are extremely intelligent being who can execute the logical choice, and not the emotional one.

Why do people say ''sociopath'' like it's a bad thing?
