Imagine you met the woman of your dreams and are in the most loving, complete relationship of your life.

How would you feel if you find out that she once had sex for money before she met you?

My sister and I were taking off our shoes. She kicked hers and hit my foot. I said "ouch!" but not yelling, just reacting to a shoe hitting my foot. She started yelling at me, "I didn't do it on purpose! It was an accident!" &c. As if I did something wrong! This is the best example, but she does it other times in other situations, too.

Why does she do this?

What do you think? I am sorta bad at writting poems, but please tell me what you think (It's called "Hang In There, I Know You Can"):

It's a cold winter and I'm sitting all alone
All I can think of is you
You make me laugh, you make my cry
I know I'll be with you soon
I'm at college, your at home
I don't know if I can survive so alone
I've only got 2 more years before I'll be back
Hang in there
I know you can
Your strong, your brave
Your my hero, babe
I can't think of anyone I love more
Stay with me, ok?
I'll be back in your arms someday
Someday soon

Tell me exactly what you think of it. This poem is for my friend. She was going to college with her boyfriend but then they had a major fight. She went to a new college and she only has 2 more years left before she can be back with him. My friend is in New York and her BF is in Washington. This is for them.

I've read a recent article and articles last year talking about his sex and porn addictions. He's a self-confessed addict, claimed to be a womaniser before asking his fiancee, Alexis to marry him, and had sex about 5 times a day.

Personally, I don't see how he could commit to sex 5 times, especially at night and have the schedule he has, or even watch that watch porn, what do you think? Could a therapist really diagnose him as a sex and porn addict?

where do you get the strength, when this person has become your prozac, when you are addicted, when you call 20 times in a row even when you know they won't answer, how do you get out of a situation where you are used and abused, how do you get out with dignity, sense of self, and worthfulness still in tact? how do you become whole again?

I don't fully understand what clinically separates a narcissist from a "normal" person with an inflated ego.

such as anger, jealousy, greed etc. is there ever a time when these feelings benefit us by giving in to them? or should we always deny, deny, deny them?

I wondered for those who've never been through sexual assault or anything like that, where a person would have a right to feel fearful, if it were normal for a person to feel fearful of sex. Do you think it would be the intimacy side, or possibly some mental things that are holding the person back?
What do YOU think could be causing fear in a person in this situation?

What I mean by that is fighting your weaknesses, dark past, and trying to find your true self. We always try to let go and move on but eventually it comes up again and we don't notice... So don't you agree it is the toughest battle to deal with yourself?

How do I get rid of my weaknesses? I know only I can get rid of my own but any suggestions?

Thanks for reading.

My therapist advertises for doing hypnosis and when I am in session sometimes I feel like I'm 'under the influence' of hypnosis. How can I do a self-test to know? and is there a way to snap out of it on my own? He always tells me to look in the mirror at the end to say I'm beautiful but I don't know if that has to do with snapping out of it?

In early Japanese culture, should a samurai be captured in battle ( or have any other disgrace tarnish his name), he would have the opportunity to take his sword and commit suicide. This "courageous" act (seen as such because it usually is a difficult thing to do) would redeem the samurai and bring honor back to his name. Should he hesitate, he would be beheaded and have dishonor tarnish his name for eternity.


In (primarily, but not limited to) Christian society, suicide is an unforgivable sin because it casts away God's precious gift of life. It is seen as cowardly because they see it as an escape from problems which the person would not overcome. The sinner would forever burn in hell wallowing in their torment.



Knowing these two sides of the subject. what do you think????

I have mood swings, depression, outburst of crying, severe pain in my stomach, food cravings. I have dreams about me being pregnant and labor and I walked with this guy to a resturant and sat down outside in a chair. I had a vision about me holding a 3-4 year old black girl with my family in an airport setting sort of and she called me Mommy. I was stat raped 4 years ago by a black man. I am stressed because I am not getting my period. I did not have sexual intercourse within the last month. Though he did rub his penis around there. I did not see anything that would look white to me like ***. I was extermely upset and thats why that happened. My boyfriend means the world to me. He treats me like his Queen and I love that. I want to get married to him and have children. I am hoping to stay with him soon. I just do not feel right. I go to a therapist but thats not working. I feel like no one will listen to me. Please e-mail. I would like to ask more questions, talk more as well.

I've been so busy these past months.. I dont have time for God, time for family, time for social events..its like I've been severed from reality and society. I didnt even know it until now. I just dont want life to pass me by.

I always chose to work instead of play. I feel addicted and its ******* up my life. I analyze everything like it is a school assignment.. i just cant let it flow.. i always have to`ask why and I end up taking a different direction compared to everyone else, making me go against the mainstream. I'm am addicted. Just like crack addicts just stay home and smoke that ****, I stay home do work. I dont have any other part of my life than that. I left Maryland with unresolved problems. I should have stayed and resolved the problems before leaving but i didnt because all i could think about was going to college.. Yes im doing well, im top 10% but thats all i have....I can't find the balance. I go out and I start freaking out because i think i should be home work

Psychologists who support the diagnostic criteria of dissociative identity disorder argue that the sharp increase inreported cases in recent decades is probably due to:

a - the fact that most insurance plans now cover treatment for dissociative identity disorder.

b - the greater prevalence of drug use among grade-school children, which may produce dissociative identity disorder in adulthood.


c -greater clinical awareness of the disorder and of its symptoms and increased screening for dissociative symptoms.

d -greater coverage of sensational dissociative identity disorder patients in movies and television shows, making it easier for disturbed people to mimic the symptoms.

I ask only because being too positive makes you very naive and unrealistic. And being too realistic makes you seem like almost a pessimist and of course that's not positive.
