'snowbell, it's a difficult process. Many people who have been abused, have a serious problem with this. They think, if people closest to me took advantage of me, how am I ever to trust a total...
Gossip Goat, I don't think your professor is allowed to ask such a question. It's inappropriate. If you know for sure he is the kind of person who has no tact, go to him before class to make sure...
Can't think of a boring or ugly language but I think French and Spanish and Italian sound prettiest.
So beautifully put, I sympathize with a lot of what you said. Been recently thinking about the loneliness from that perspective also.
Some women may or may not be like some men in some ways!!! Sorry, somebody had to say it!
Just wanted to say thank you to everybody here, I appreciated your posts and sharing your experiences with your own pain and pain of people close to you, and giving me words of wisdom. It means a...

It's a fairly sucky test anyways. It had the look of being very accurate and comprehensive but it's not.
It sounds fun in theory but it's a lot of work, especially if you want your theory to be respected. But you can do it for fun. Like a guy I knew who said women were of two personality types, the...

Buddhism is a religion so it's hard to answer if it can be helpful for anxiety or depression as if it were a treatment. Meditation and mindfulness, which are part of many different religious...
Sometimes I think if I ever felt like a peacock butterfly on a sweet sunflower I'd suddenly burst into dozens of flashes of selfish rainbows.

Touched by an angel It's so hot my white fan sighs each time she turns to face me I feel the least I can do is make something of myself.

What has helped you? I have PTSD and I'm sick of it. Things trigger me all the time, I can't relax like before, when I used to just fall sleep and I'm up most nights, can't hold down a job, get...

A cold glass of fresh unclotted blood. Or some sort of soda, I'm not picky. :p
same here, lots of shows lose me and other viewers when they try to add the big emotional stuff to their otherwise lighthearted humorous shows.
I enjoy Modern Family, I'm mostly into comedies, but I sense that's not the type of shows you might find interesting. I like the Simpsons too, but old stuff, new ones suck. Wish there was a similar...
Just the strain on my back that bothers me.
I keep getting confused when people refer to social anxiety as SAD, as it's the common abbreviation for Seasonal affective disorder. But there is cure, if by cure you mean not to meet the...

I still remember that great speech given by our hour most honorable leader, Carrot Top, on the famous mountain: I have a CREAM!...That I apply to my face when it's real sunny out there.

I am new to moderating, but on my part I try to mention the reason why a thread was locked. Often it's the OP who PM's me or other mods and says they want their thread deleted. But since the way...

Thanks guys, I was starting to doubt my ability to read! These stupid things are the reason robots will rise in near future and destroy human beings. The CAPTCHA is eliminating humans not robots. ...

Do you have a supervisor or a third party that can help? Like this advice quite a bit too.
Why? Are you great at math or suffer from schizophrenia...or both?

That's so sad. I know many parents don't react well to things like this (heck, people themselves often don't want to have gender issues either) at first but they usually come around. Or they...
