Psychology - December 2007

Why do you think they do? Do you mind?

I don't think anyone's ever confided anything huge with me, which makes me sad - but lots of people who hear people's problems all the time say it really annoys them.

Thanks, any answers would be really good :)

Not too long ago, when I was in the throes of a major depression, someone told me that I was unpopular, because people thought that I had a "negative attitude". This really irritates the hell out of me, because what they perceived as a "negative attitude" was one of the symptoms of clinical depression. Not only that, but has it ever occurred to some people that maybe some people have a "negative attitude" because of their life experiences? Not everyone's life is a cakewalk and not everyone has a reason to jump for joy or think that life is hunky dory, so people should take this things into consideration before they dismiss someone as having a "negative attitude".

So much in life is bringing me down. i'm constantly troubled with paths that seem to lead me nowhere, i'm being pressured by so many people and the strees i have makes me lye awake for hours.
I'm so tired- tired of this madness and tired physically.

can someone just say what they want- be sad with me please? i just want to know i'm not hte only one feeling this horiable and i'm too sad to explain why

how did you cope or get through ?

also was you ever in a situation where you owned little or no posessions, if so how did you cope ?

im borderline personality disorder and right now im very depressed at the fact i live in a one bedroomed flat in a council area.....with hoodies or groups of youths who live around me or near by.....they blast loud music...speed their cars.....shout...argue, fight.

its not the roughest area in the world but my goals are to live in a quiet village near the coast, with few populace and an elderley population or people my own age......also to share it with a loving partner...something ive never had.

but with my no employment history....criminal record...mental health record....and no qualifications ever gained.....these dreams seem like a remote impossibility.

ive never had a partner ever...never made any friends ever either because of my problems.

ive aged fast..physically to.
im so depressed...has anyone been in a situation like this & got out of it?

Think back on all of the major decision you've made, what was the best, overall, that you have made and why?

Details, details please! Thanks!

BTW: One of mine was divorcing my ex who was controlling, manipulative and selfish (basically abusive emotionally).

Would you...
(a) Spread it thickly on just one piece and just have butter on the other?
(b) Spread it thinly to cover both pieces?
(c) Leave the jam and go for something else until you get some more jam from the shop?
(d) Do something not mentioned here (please mention what)?

Assume the following: the jam is your favourite sort or if you don't like jam then some other spreadable topping will do instead for this question. Another note to bear in mind is that when I say a piece of toast, I mean a round/square/slice of toast of medium thickness.

religons and science have only given us theory's and not one shread of evidence. why do we latch on to one theory or another and defend it with endless debate? and if we ever do find out the truth wouldn't you think we would probally stumble on to it rather than debating our way into it. do you stand fast on your belief of where humans come from?

If we ask for your number, sometimes that's "trying too hard"

If we don't, we have to put up with you light heartedly asking us to grow a pair

If we tell you what's on our minds we need to grow up and get a pair.

If we don't we're holding out on you.

If we're a gentlemen to you we need to grow up and get a pair. And we're also too nice.

If we aren't a gentlemen to you we are either dateable (if hot enough of course) or psychotic (if we're not hot enough to date)

If we're rude we're always assholes. No suchj thing as a bad day or dealing with lots of problems.

If you're rude you're entitled to it always because that's "how you work".

Also, lots of you call men dude. That's patronizing. Stop it.
We don't call you Chicks.

From what I've heard, most people fall in love with the partners who took their virginities. What is it that makes "the first time" so intriguing that it'll make people fall in love with their first-time sexual partners?

Why don't people understand that life can be a result of right decisions, hard work and discipline?

If I'm not a single mother of 5 because I understand the responsibility that comes with each child and chose not to get pregnant. If I spent the majority of my life getting an education, putting myself in student loan debt, took minimum wage jobs and worked myself up because I understood the importance of marketing myself and work ethics, as opposed to sitting on my butt and waiting for the invisible hand to help me out. If I would have rather saved my money for investment rather than going out to clubs or buying clothes. If I chose not to get involved with the wrong crowd, drained and distracted by men who are jerks---how can that be called "luck?" And why am I supposed to feel guilty for enjoying my position?
