I space out.
Posted Sunday February 25 2007, 3:13 pm
At times it seems like I space out and I'm not all there. I've been doing that for it seems like ever since high school started. I'm 16 and in the 10th grade. Going to high school was hard for me because I had to leave my best friends. They were the only that ever made happy until now...now I have a boyfriend that makes me extremely happy but I worry that something will happen like he'll break up with me for some stupid reason every once in a while. Uh...I also seem to forget things easily. Like how to play black jack...to me thats one of the easiest games to remember how to play. But I seemed to have forgot. I remembered maybe 5 minutes after I was asked how to play. I really don't know but the spacing out all the time and knowing I'm not ...

WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?
Posted Saturday February 24 2007, 11:06 pm
So whenever I go in public (especially for rehearsals with my theater group) I feel like people are looking at me differently than they look at other people- and it makes me feel really exposed and vulnerable and then I start freaking out. They all ask me "What's wrong?" or "are you okay" and I really don't see why. It's probably because of my facial expression- which is usually depressed (I try not to look depressed but it doesn't work.)
And then I feel like people are looking at me for the rest of the day- even when I'm at home. (with no one else around)
FYI: I'm not a "pubescent" teen... i've passed all that crap so i don't know what's up with me.

depression?
Posted Friday February 23 2007, 4:04 pm
Hey. Well, I get these random "spells" as I call them, of depression. I don't know if I'm bipolar. And like, I have a pretty good life. Not perfect, obviously, but not as bad as other people's. I don't know what's wrong with me. Also, I have little to no self-esteem, if that helps at all. Help!! And thanks in advance :].
P.S. 13/f, Idk if that will help anybody.

Therapy
Posted Thursday February 22 2007, 11:59 pm
THIS IS ONLY FOR PSYCHOLOGISTS: I have another question concerning my friend who went to a psychologist that acted more like a friend than a therapist. Now that my friend stopped seeing this therapist my friend is calmer, happier, and jokes more and not uptight. WHY is my friend happier and calmer now? HERE IS THE STORY TO REFRESH YOUR MEMORY: My friend was seeing a male therapist who was always scarastic and pessimistic who would say things like: Well your boss is an SOB, he really hated you; The therapist never helped my friend solve their problems.

Talking to myself
Posted Thursday February 22 2007, 3:47 pm
For as long as I could remember, I've talked to myself (out loud). This may sound strange, but sometimes when I'm alone, I start having random conversations or debates. At times, I'll just start stating my thoughts out loud. I never, ever do these things around other people. In fact, no body would ever guess that I actually do talk to myself. I stop myself sometimes and wonder why I have such a habit.
I know that I'm a stable person, but I feel so
alone sometimes that I just start talking when no body is around. The thing is, that in the back of my mind, i understand what I am doing. I can bring myself to stop; it's not as though I have no control over this.
I feel like this is abnormal...but I really do...

Mental Question, priorities.
Posted Tuesday February 20 2007, 7:39 am
We have a couple. The man crosses the river to work. When he is supposed to come back home, he doesn t show up. The woman worries and tries to cross the river to find her husband. A cannibal offers to get her across the river ONLY if she has sex with him.
Who has the biggest share of fault in this story?
Go downwards for instance
1)Cannibal (Biggest Fault)
2)Man (Medium Fault)
3)Woman (Less fault).
There are no other variables. You dont know how long was the husband was late, or if he could communicate and didn t etc.
I will tell you what it means on my feedback. You ll learn interesting stuff about yourself just by answering this question.
This is not like the usual dumb quizzes you find on the internet.

I don't get my own fear?
Posted Monday February 19 2007, 8:05 pm
I have always been so scared of needles. I have a mild blood condition so I've had to get blood taken a few times in my life. That and shots, I do not remember ever cooperating with the doctor getting it done. Today I had to get a booster shot at the doctor's, which I honestly didn't feel at all... but when I heard I had to get one I was freaking out inside. I hold in all my fear until I see the needle, then I am just completely overcome by fear and I burst into tears. I refused to get a shot today until my mom walked out of the room embarassed and I felt bad so I did it. When I get blood taken I stall with the nurses for as long as I can. It's not the pain that bothers me, but I just can't handle it. I don't think I was ever trauma...

OK MENTAL PROBLEMS HERE!
Posted Saturday February 17 2007, 7:57 pm
I'm really questioning my mental health here...
13/f
Ok so...
There used to be this guy I was talking to about things & I liked him a lot. I actually fell in love with him. Anyway, I'm not still in love with him. But...everytime I said the wrong thing or felt guilty about what I said I would pray to God and ask him to tell him that I didn't mean what I said until I got to the obsessive point where I kind of felt like I was talking to him through my mind...like some weird physcho thing...
And there was this little voice like pretending to be him and talk to me back...maybe because I was lonely???
& Then i would keep doing it with other ppl until i got to this point...-
where i started...

Eating Disorder?
Posted Friday February 16 2007, 11:37 am
I always used to think I'd never be a person to get stuck under the effects of anorexia or bulimia...but here I am today. It's not like I've actually started doing anything, but a few times I've found myself getting more...diet obsessed. Like when I'm hungry, I'll stay clear of any food that's fattening or wait till the next meal.
I REALLY REALLY love gross food too, and it's hard that i want it but want to get away from it so badly. I'm always weighing myself. I drink sooo much water because I heard it helps you drop weight, I drink slim fasts any chance I get in place of meals, and when my mom takes me for fast food when we're out I eat barely any and give it to my dog when i get home.
Do you think I have a problem? Or am I just healthily concerned?
