Wasting time or not?
Posted Monday July 30 2012, 10:50 pm
M/17. I have reduced my video game playing drastically. It's been taken over by a newer "secret" hobby. In some ways it's good and beneficial. But I still feel like I'm using technology too much. This somewhat secret hobby is YouTube and poetry writing on my computer. I have like a whole archive of poetry on my computer. So what I do is upload the poetry to YouTube in like a digital OCD manner. It's very time consuming. Editing, promoting, and making sure everything is provided, like 1080p HD. I constantly sign in to check views and feedback (If any) Aside from that, I also make informational videos on near Earth objects. And the rest of my YouTube time is spent debating on science, philosophical, and music videos. I've actually l...

How can I change my attitude to be more positive?
Posted Saturday July 28 2012, 3:02 am
I decided to write down everything that I have been feeling lately so that I can better understand my emotions:
-I get stressed really easily.
-I have trouble adjusting to change.
-I’m hypersensitive to every little thing I do. It was brought to my attention that sometimes I say things that offend people, but I don’t mean it to or even notice it. Now, I constantly worry and fixate on instances where I think I may have made someone feel uncomfortable. It makes me feel like I shouldn’t see people because I am going to do something embarrassing or stupid.
-I envy other people.
-I try to overcompensate for my insecurities.
-I am afraid people are judging me.
-I feel lonely freque...

Whenever I am out in public I get nervous, my heart races, I get tensed and paraniod. I always feel like I stick out like a sore thumb, If I am in the check out and the worker makes friendly conversation I forceably smile and I become extremely uncomfortable. I often avoid going places I may fid myself having conversations with people. There have been many times where someone is talking to me and I suddenly loose interest. I've been told all too often I have terrible eye contact and I talk under my breath to where I barely talking.
Why may this be?

How do I stop being so afraid to do hard things in my life?
Posted Sunday July 22 2012, 7:08 pm
I try to run away from hard problems by completely avoiding them, making them even worse. I don't know why I have this low self confidence when I know I'm able to do things great when I put my mind to it. How do I get out of this funk? It's seriously causing major trouble to my life right now. It's just easier to put things off and procrastinate. I have dreams I want to reach but it's like.. I don't bridge that gap. Like right now I'm supposed to be applying for college (one that's still accepting people for the fall 2012 school year) and my application is due in 1 week, but I'm putting off this very important thing in my life for no good reason. it's the reason why i'm even applying so late. why i didn't do well in high school for my senio...

reverse psychology is ruining my life....starting to get depressed
Posted Sunday July 22 2012, 12:04 pm
Hi i'm a female in my teens. when i am in a happy place, and i wouldn't change that happy moment for the world, i tell myself that nothing could ruin that moment. then, since i am telling my mind that i dont want to ruin it, it's like reverse psychology. my mind starts to think of a way to ruin that moment. so, it results in me saying wishes and curses in my head, but it's not my fault. it is the OPPOSITE of what i want to happen. and then i get lethargic and depressed because i dont mean what i am saying and then i spend every waking minute praying that these wishes and curses dont come true. other times, i convince myself that things are real and true, when they're not and they're just in my mind. as soon as i get words or a picture in my...

How can I come clean to my girlfriend? Overwhelmed with guilt.
Posted Sunday July 22 2012, 1:05 am
My girlfriend and I have been together for about a year and a half and she's been the best thing that ever happened to me. She came to me when I was heart broken and confused from my last relationship, and she nursed me back to health. Though, me being the idiot that I am, I didn't appreciate what she did for me at that time, and I went and cheated on her. I've already went through the guilt stages where I've beaten myself up behind the guilt and completely wore myself out mentally. I know I already don't deserve her and should come clean. The thing is, I love her so much now, and really just want whats best for her, even if the best isn't me. I just want to know a good way to come clean and how to bring it up to her.

About three years of addiction. 8(
Posted Thursday July 19 2012, 12:40 am
I remember watching regular porn. But I remember exactly how I came across transsexual porn - by accident. And as soon as I realized what I had clicked on, I got curious and explored. That was about three and a half years ago, I was in ninth grade 8( I've always tried to stop. I've made improvements too. But I feel like I have no hop whatsoever. I'm always awkward and nervous around girls that I like, and nobody knows about this addiction to weird porn. Is there any chance that over time, I could re-stabilize and go back to the closer to "normal" life I had? It went from every single day to every weekend. There's been times where I've gone two weeks. Recently I've been having relapses though. It's like whenever something doesn't w...

Rude neighbourhood kids.
Posted Wednesday July 18 2012, 10:21 pm
My Dad is dealing with clinical depression and we happen to live in a government funded low income neighbourhood. We just happen to live around drug-dealing, low-class and uncivil people.
Anyways, the kids in this neighbourhood are extremely rude and disrespectful. They have added numerous dents and scratches onto my Dad's car and are extremely rude to him.
For example, whenever they see my Dad walking outside, they will all stop and stare at him. Another time, my Dad told me they were standing near our backyard and staring at them and he asked them what their problem was and one of the kids was like "Who do you think you're dealing with? What the hell is wrong with you fucking Paki's, don't mess with us b...

I'm numb emotionally
Posted Wednesday July 18 2012, 3:49 pm
18/f/usa
I can't feel anything, emotionally that is. I want so much to be happy, but when I'm filled in a room with my friends and family, I notice I'm usually forcing myself to smile. I'm so lonely. My best friend is always falling in and out of love and I've yet to. I miss having boyfriend, but all the guys that ever like me are creeps. I just want to be happy, to actually be able to feel something again.
*Note I am on antidepressants and have been for maybe like a year and a half?
