Psychology - December 2007

I am 19. I am frustrated of living in India. Here nobody maintains the law, everyone is aggressive and corrupt. I got admission to a good college. But from the very first day the very Indian term "ragging" started where the seniors harrass the juniors of the college. I was taken to a field nearby and beaten up. Unlike college everywhere Indian colleges don't have psychologists. So nobody could cure my mental condition. Then there is a strike every now and then and classes are abandoned for the day(sometimes two consecutive days). Unlike colleges everywhere else, you are permitted to honk near the college. We have classes where the sound intensity is around 120 decibel. Our syllabus was not even 50% completed. Then came the exams. But the papers got leaked and so the exam was postponed by 20 days. Then they made papers which were so tough that many failed(I scraped through). But now I am depressed. How can I escape from this mess??????

I have never, ever, told anyone face to face the things that go on inside my head... I've never shared my deep down feelings and thoughts, worries with anyone.

I have so much inside me that I need to let out, but I don't feel close enough to anyone to do that. I am 18.

I want to see a psychologist, I looked up on Yellow Pages and found one near to where I live...

But when I get there, what? "Hi, I have lots of repressed feelings." Jeez, I cringe at the thought of sitting there saying that to someone...

They will pretend to care. I won't even know where to start when I am meant to talk. I don't know what my problem is, so how can I answer the "So what can I do for you?" question...

"I am 18, I don't have a single friend. I have never had a girlfriend but long to have someone to cuddle and confide in. I am insecure but no one knows, I hide it all away and hope they don't figure me out."

OMG, that sounds so pathetic and embarrasing...

... Maybe I'll stay at home and not bother...

behavior, tricks, passive aggressive behavior, gaslighting, and very EEEERIE psychic abilities. Knowing my private world, then mocking my thoughts, prayers, inner landscape with their friends (other demons???)aloud for me to overhear, destroying what is precious. Once this demon hears me think a thought like, "i love this blanket on bad nights,"...he then knows to "take it over"...swipe it every night... If I feel a fondness for a person and speak no words of it, somehow these people know and mock and slander this person, where they didn't do so BEFORE my thoughts of fondness. Are there demons on earth that fool us into thinking they are human. More importantly, is there some "litmus" test known among Christians, or any other faiths to test if a being is human?

For example, say you fall madly inlove with a diamond ring your friend has. (FOR GUYS- its your friend's dvd of Footballs Favorite Moments...) It is something that is completely unique and you want to have it, just for a day or two. You want it so badly that your stomach hurts not having it with you! You dream about it and think about it all that time.... But you know if you ask your friend for it, they would not loan it to you, because they know it is unique and wouldn't loan it to God if he asked! But, she/he doesn't pay much attention to it and barely knows they own it!

Would you 'borrow' it without asking THEN return it, if you KNEW they would NEVER find out you had it... Or would you take the moral high ground and act like you never saw it?When it comes down to it, would you choose your morals over your primal instincts?

I want to stop masturbating. And I need advice from people who share my opinion (those who believe that there are more negative aspects to the practice than positive aspects).

I know that it is a release and that it feels good, but I find it kind of annoying that I waste my time doing something that makes me feel empty inside. Though it feels good when I climax, reality tends to hit me in the face later on, filling me with guilt and shame. I can lie to myself, denying these ugly feelings. However, I could be doing much better things in life than watching porn and masterbating. You know, people are meant to live for so much more.

I don't want someone out there to tell me that it's healthy or to give me reasons or excuses that justify their masturbating habits. I believe it's unhealthy and no one can change that.

I will only read answers that will help me STOP. I'm an 18-year-old girl. Advice from a girl would be helpful, but I appreciate assistance from everyone.

I have someone on my wrestling team who really annoys me. I've known him since for a few years10th grade now and he's in the same grade as me. When we were on the cross-country team he would ask me if I'm going to beat him at the meets. I'd say yes and then he'd end up beating me and saying how come you didn't beat me and he'd just keep carrying on. Meanwhile he weighs 110 and I weigh 190 and it's easier for him to run a 5k than me because he's so light. Then a few weeks before wrestling season he'd be telling me how many matches I'm going to win (about 10 out of 30) . Then on time I brought my trombone home to practice and before wrestling practice it didn't fit in the locker so I left it outside the locker. Then I'd go back into the locker room and find my trombone in the locker. It took a few tries to pull it out and it ripped off part of the material on the outside of the case. Later he'd tell me that he put it in there so no one would steal it. (This is continued below)

would you like to see holidays instituted around the:

31st december/1st of january...
31st march/1st of april...
30th june/1st of july...
30th september/1st of october

to my mind, it would be nice to be able to have four exactly equidistant resting points [in the year] to give a logical/secular/rational structure to the experience of the passing of the year,[that incidentally is also synchronised with new year---ie exactly three months after new year we have april 1st holiday----exactly three months after which..we have july 1st holiday----exactly three months after which comes 1st october holiday...then full circle again with jan 1st-three months later.

most people like to divide tasks into halves and quarters, and i see no reason why we couldnt divide the year itself by four quarter points- but that also align with new years day.

i know the equinoxes and solstices are almost the same thing, but theyt are not aligned to our current ist jan new years day.................

I dont want to get people down so if your deeply in love an happier than ever, it might not be the best time to read this.

Ive been doin psychology for two years at school and having done a little bit of study on love and relationships its started to occur to me that love isnt as real as we make it.
If you think about it, love is jjust a an evolutionary solution to finding a good mate and making sure we go all the way and carry on our genes. When we find someone suitable our mind might release hormones and make positive associations with the person so that we spend more time with them and potentially reproduce. Or just so that we stay around the person we feel safest with so that we dont get hurt. again a survival factor.
So are we just victims of our evolved unconcious minds that are quite successfully ensuring the continuation of the human race?
Are we in love? or is it just a method of survival?

Quite a sad way to look at it, but it doesnt mean we cant enjoy it.

Does our conduct influence how long we live?

Just curious? My mother's other child embezzled a lot of $$$ from me. She begged me not to prosecute him and to not send him to prison. Not once in 25 years have we spoken a single word to the other and since he hasn't tried to repay me nor apologize, I'm sure we'll go to our graves without speaking. I never think about "it" until the holidays and then everyone starts with a barrage of questions about "it". I can't stand it and I think it's very rude, especially in front of my daughter. The only other time I think about "it" is when my elderly mother gets sick. I dread the day of her death.

Anyhow, I was just wondering if you've had anything like this happen and what do you do about it?

Thanks & Happy Holidays

I am a really... shy... person, my confidence is low... I know it, everyone else knows it - I want to change, yet I can't?

This is how low my confidence is;

- I don't like playing my music loud, I use headphones.
- I don't like to have phone conversations in a room with other people around, I have to go upstairs or in a seperate room.
- I cannot chat to girls properly, I just lock up and get even quieter!
- When I go out, I have it in myhead that everyone is looking at me and laughing.
- I am interested in girls, I want a girlfriend- But my confidence is my limit.

I mean, I am not bad looking, I've been told I'm "hot" by various girls, and yet I have never had a girlfriend. Ever. I am 18. I have not had one, yet people who are not so attractive can get gjrlfriends... O_O; (That sounds bad, but it is just an observation)

Also: Online, I am not shy at all. Just in real life.
