Question by Nowheretobefound.: What do you think of this…?
When I was little around ages 4-14, I use to have these extreme obsessive thoughts, and I use to scratch the word “he” into my skin because I thought something bad was always watching and controlling me, and I use to talk to myself all the time(more thinking thoughts out loud) except I would do it for hours, I use to have nightmares all the time, I would bang my head really hard against the wall and call myself an idiot or I would use my fist. I would pinch myself from severe anxiety. At a young age I use to obsess over mental intuitions and I would obsess over all theses unhealthy really dark things. Part of it may of been because of the things that happened to me and the fact my mom use to call my a psycho when I had anger fits or temper tantrums, mind you I was only around 4 when she started doing that and basically up until I was 14, but after every time I was angry and my mom calling me names I use to cry hysterically and later punch myself saying I was stupid. So all of this may of contributed but what do you think I had or what was wrong with me exactly?

As of right now, and I’ve been working on it since I was 14 (I am 18 now and I am a female.), I basically used my will power to not get anger nearly as much anymore and I try to express my childhood into artwork, sometimes I still get really bad obsessive thoughts but I don’t bring it outwardly, I just cry or try my best to write it down but I still think about how I was or the things that have happened all the time.

**I am putting it in here because I thought maybe I would get some better answers, I put it in mental health and psychology and all I got was, that “I am eating the wrong food.” and that I have, “Tourettes syndrome.” I’m pretty sure sure none of those have anything to do with it.

It sounds like you have some kind of depressive disorder, although I’m not exactly sure what. There would have to be a much more thorough analysis to effectively provide an answer, which I doubt could be done on yahoo answers. If you are seriously concerned, I would highly recommend that you see your GP, who in turn can refer you to a psychologist. This psychologist can then either give you online tests or ask you some questions to try to determine what the case is. Make sure you feel comfortable with the psychologist; there is nothing wrong with telling them that you don’t feel comfortable talking to them and that you would prefer to see someone else.

Question by tolkien_rules1234: What did you think of Avatar?
So now that the records have been broken and the excitement has begun to die down, what do you guys think of Avatar? When I saw it in the theaters, I was completely blown away. Being a special effects lover (my movie fav’s include Star Trek and Transformers), the movie seemed like something from the future. However, now that the “Popcorn Syndrome” has passed and I begin to think about it, I’m not so sure it was really that good of a movie. Once you look past the special effects, you find a story that “reeks” of subliminal environmental messages and some poor dialogue. (Remember “Come to pappa?”)

However, apart from these negative aspects of the movie, I thought it had very strong acting, believable characters, and most of all a sense of fun. Overall, I’d give the movie 8/10, one point taken away for each of the flaws listed above. What do you guys think?

Once you get past the special effects of most of Cameron’s films, you find a shallow, predictable plot filled with flat cardboard characters who should be embarrassed at how silly and fake they are. “Titanic” was the same way, too! One Cameron film that was NOT? “The Abyss.”

Question by Joe James: how many peoples really advisement the paralympics are match to the olympics as is often claimed?
we may feel sorry for them we may admire the courage and determination someone has shown after breaking their back and becoming a paraplegic.aren’t athletics meant to be mandarin? isn’t this just another example of the downward spiral of dumbing plumage?I.E. first of all the paraplegic claims to be equal to the walker then the tetraplegic claims to be equal to the paraplegic?yes people WHO’ve had accidents should be able to payoff part in sports as much as they still can,but shouldn’t we stop claiming it’s equal to sport?

Best response:

Answer by call-back me Al
I know someone WHO has won decoration in the Paralymics. Me being a sport junkie, we’ve talked about her adventures in sports. It’s not a topic she brings up frequently, only when the audience wants to hear what she has to say.I have never, ever heard her claim her achievement are on par with those of Olympians. I conceive she would agree that what’s done in the Paralympics is as impressive as what’s done in the Olympics. They are very different arenas, to be appreciated for what they are. Certainly Paralymians have solon interesting rearward narrative, but dorsum stories gentleman’t win medals: Performances do. Only issue substance.I don’t knowing who these people are, but in my 35 yr of reading sports pages and Sports Illustrated, I’ve never heard this assertion.I’m not denying populating aren’t fashioning this specious averment. Supposedly educated peoples believe the earth is flat. I am not disturbed they’re wrong, only apathetic. You’re reading way too much into this very obscure asseveration.

Question by Nicholas Hoult: Why do you think he is doing this?
One of my friends was making fun of this guy with aspergers syndrome behind his back. I was annoyed by him saying this and I said to my friend “I have aspergers syndrome” he then apologised to me and he felt like a real idiot for saying it.

I notice that whenever I am around him he delibratly shuns me out of conversations and when I do say something he just looks down on the floor and says dosen’t say anything. I could say something as well and my friend would say “No shit” in a sarcastic tone of voice.

None of my other friends that know I have aspergers bevhave this way towards me. Do you think he acts like this becasuse he has some kind of prejudice towards people with aspergers? I think he did treat me with more respect before I told him i had the condition.

Question by Stephanie L: anxious and paranoid AND worried about illnesses, I think I’m a hypochondriac. ?
sorry its so long…

Basically, my WHOLE life I’ve been paranoid, sort of a hypachondriach, exept I don’t like visiting doctors because I never want to find out whats wrong, I just research conditions myself and then get convinced I have them! and its beginning to rule my life.
It all started properly when I was young, about 8 or 9 years old – and i was terrified to eat food. It sounds weird now, but at the time I was terrified to swallow food because I was convinced it would get stuck in my throat and I would die, obviously I know it wouldnt happen, but when your an 8 year old child it scared the living daylights out of me! I would only eat soft things, like mash potato or soup because I knew it wouldn’t get stuck. thinking about it, i must have watched or seen something or someone that chocked on food because thats why I wouldnt eat food, because I was scared of chocking on it! Eventually I went to see a doctor, and after about 2 years I began eating normally and i learnt that food wouldnt hurt me, and now I love my food! shortly after that though, i developed OCD at the age of about 11. I would wash my hands a lot and do weird things like hum when people were watching TV because I felt that I had to. The OCD wasnt that servere though and I gues I just controlled it because it doesnt effect me at all. After this came my fear of being sick. When i was about 11 or 12 I had a stomach bug where I was sick 7 – 8 times a day for like a week, and I was convinced there was something wrong with me. Looking back I knew it was just a stomach bug but at the time and for months after i was absolutly terrified of being sick! AFTER this I was convinced I had something wrong with my heart. (at about age 12, or 13) I remember I watched a programme which said that sypthoms of heart disease were a bad back, chest pain – and then of course I was convinced I had them! I would get pains all down my sides, and I was totally convinced it was because my organs were failing, If I had a bit of indegestion after a meal I thought I was having a heart attack! at age 13 lol! Even now when I have a pain in my chest it still crosses my mind that I could be having a heart attack! but I dont worry as much as I used to! After years of worrying that I would die from swallowing food or die from heart disease, at age 16 I went to the doctor one random morning because I had been ill (cold, sore throat etc) But i wasnt worried because this time I knew I had a cold! Whilst there, my mum brought up that I has weird shaped fingers (the joints on some of my fingers are quite large) but I have clicked them all my life and they don’t hurt, but she thought it best just to mention. the Doctor looked at my fingers and said its probably just where Ive been clicking them all my life but it could be a thing called “Marfans Syndrome” I was worried and I went home. a couple of hours later I was bored so I stupidly researched this so called condition called “Marfans” and of course I was convinced I had it – to my shock it said that it was a condition that affects the bones (obviously making the joints slightly bigger) but even more shockingly, it affects the muscles especially around the heart and gives u back pain! after reading that all of my anxiety about having heart disease came flooding back and I was hysterical and convinced I had it. For weeks after, the slightest twinge in my back or chest etc I was convinced I was dying. I would cry every evening thinking that I was going to die from marfans syndrome. I went back to the doctor a few weeks after he said it could be that and he asked me a few questions and decided it wasn’t this Marfans syndrome, but of course I was still petrified incase he had it wrong and for months I was terrified of it. A year after this I then thought my hair was falling out! yet again it sounds weird I know, but I was convinced it was. Since I can remember, when I washed my hair, there would be a few hairs in the plug whole, but this one time I washed my hair and I was convinced more hair had come out than usual. I would sit in class at school and look on the floor and there would be 2 or 3 hairs on the floor and I would panic everytime I saw them cos I thought my hair was falling out. I would wake up in the middle of the night and check in the mirror at my hair line – convinced it was receading. It sounds stupid but 18 months on and I still have a head of hair!!! YET again after this I missed a period – probably because of all this anxiety! and I was convinced I was infertile! I cried so many times waiting for it, and then when I stopped worrying I came on! AFTER this i began suffering from dizziness, I automatically linked it with the missed period and was paranoid there was something wrong with my hormones! or something wrong like a brain tumour. After weeks of being dizzy all the time I discoverd it was just physcological as I was only dizzy in an awkward situation, like exams or when I was worrying about one of the man

Question by barracuda: Who are these people that think Phil Jackson is overrated?
It’s unbelievable how stupid NBA fans are. They don’t think coaches do anything. Yeah, it’s easy to think that when the NBA hires so many pathetic coaches like Mike Brown and Avery Johnson. But someone’s always doing the coaching job, and many times it usually is the assistant if the head coach is an idiot.

Who writes up the plays and manages the team? Who gets players to work together? Who gets players to work hard? It’s today’s selfish society that only looks at the person shooting the shot, and not the person that set everything up. Look at Allen Iverson. He never listened to his coaches. He got away with his streetball garbage for a while, but then everyone figured him out. He got beat up, his teams stopped winning and now he’s a pariah. Kobe was going down that path until Phil Jackson came back.

It makes me angry to see that NBA fans have no concept of how the game works anymore. Stern has continued to encourage and feed the stupidity of these fans in many ways I won’t get into.

I really wish Phil Jackson had stepped down this year. If that had happened, I guarantee the Lakers would’ve folded like a house of cards next year, no matter who is on that roster. Kobe would revert to his ballhog ways, because he just doesn’t understand how Phil’s system makes him better. It happened before, under Rudy T.

I call it “Jordan Syndrome,” the belief that one man, namely themselves, can carry an NBA team by themselves. It’s very real, and the only bad coaches are the ones that cannot communicate to their players the importance of passing the ball and finding the open man, playing strategically.

Best answer:

Answer by It
I disagree with your comments made about Kobe but everthing else you said was good, Phil is the Man.

People think Phil is Overrated because they don’t want to accept the FACT that he passed Red in All Time Titles and Phil has just about all Major Records as a Coach(except most all-time wins)

Question by His LadyBug: do you think it’s best for sibling #2 and #3 to be close in birth or spread apart?
My husband and I have a 2 and 1/2 year old baby boy and an 8 month old baby boy. We’re only wanting one more but not really sure the best time to plan it. I’m at least wanting to wait until baby #2 is a year old because he was born via c-section. My doctor said that I would be fine to get pregnant any time after the year is up. So do you think it’s better to have them close together? or do you think that having them too close may give the middle child more of that “middle child syndrome” I’m kind of leaning towards having them close together, but I’m scared that down the road I’ll get baby fever.. I’m not asking for like a family situation answer.. just them being closer in general. Do you think them being closer in age will effect them when they are older? Will it make them bond more? Thanks1
You guys have a good point. One of the things I’m worried about too is that if I wait to have baby #3 and he/she is our last one then baby #3 may kind of be the outcast and feel more like an only child. I was an only child and I hated it.

Best answer:

Answer by Amanda
closer. if you decide to have baby #4 at a later time it might clash. all the babies will be close together and get along better.

Question by g: Do you notice that if one candidate says what Republicans like to hear, they think that candidate won?
no matter how great or poor they actually did, when they say “won” they really just mean “said things I agree with”…

which, if the person is debating a democrat, and you’re a republican… then of course they will say more things that you agree with?

do Republicans ever think they lose with this seeming “standard” of debate “wins and losses”?
during the presidential elections, I remember liberals though Obama did well in two debates and poorly in one…

while republicans thought mccain won all three?

Question by Xara: you think time away might make him smarten up and be responsible??baby-daddy?
ok so I have had nothing but trouble with baby-daddy! I am due in about 7weeks.Hes hurt me emotionally and physically and acted sooo horrible just going out with friends all of the time drinking and being imature,even ignoring my 21st birthday! hes in his 20s ,as I am too.We havnt spoken in 2 weeks,as I choose not to accept his behaviour anymore and reported him to the police.Tomorrow he goes away with an organisation he is involved with for a week,for the time wev been apart he has done nothing but party,ignore me,made no effort whatsoever and even posted insensitive pictures on facebook out partying with other girls.I am really stressed,sick and worried.as you can imagine!! His friends are idiots and encourage him even more.Today I heard from him,saying he was there if i needed anything or wanted him to buy anything,but wouldnt discuss what hed done to me or how he treated me etc.and said hed”nothing to be sorry for,and it didnt matter now anyway”,and was going away tommorrow! I was sooo mad!! basically he was sending me a message to cushion his consciounce b4 heading away(far) where ther r no phones etc),in case I gave birth or nething!! HE expected me to just forget everything and act like nothing happened but discuss the child!! I told him he didnt care,that if he did he wouldnt treat me so badly and that it was a bit late for him when he is going away etc.and that we would be alright,he didnt care or buy anything in the last 8months and certainly wasnt showing he did now!! He shouted down the fone if I wanted him to buy anything?? that all that mattered was the baby?? (whom he hasnt acknowleged existed until now) and then said hed to go and would call tommorrow! “no you wont” I said and he hung up the phone. IM SOO ANGRY!! in my opinion of course he should be sorry,not just expect to treat me like $ hit,abuse me mentally and physically and then expect me to 4get about it and he has nothing to apologise for!! grrrrr………im just wondering do you think with this week away,away from everything(where there will be no nights out,imature friends,phone connections or alcohol) will he or is it possible for something to click in his head??? b4 this baby comes??Im terrified and unfortunatly love this person!..iv texted him saying”we dont need you and are worth more than a stupid text,will update my facebook when I give birth,your loss”…………….please advise

yeah i think u need some time away from him because he is not taking having a baby serious because look at the big picture when the baby is born he will leave u to do all the work and he will go out and when u have your baby u need rest and if he is not willing to be there for u and your baby time apart will make him wise up and see that u and the baby are more important then his friends

Question by : Solider jailed over these rap lyrics…do you think he deserved it?
If I do drugs, I’ll get kicked out
But if my time is out I can’t get out
So the good die young I heard it out your mouth
So [expletive] the Army
And everything you’re all about
Like Obama says “Somebody be held responsible”
But some of ya’ll gonna be held in the hospitals whenever possible
To pursue my own journeys in life, through my own main obstacles
Since I can’t pinpoint the culpable
They want me ’cause misery loves company
I’m gonna round them all up
Eventually, easily, walk right up peacefully
And surprise them all
Yes, yes ya’ll up against the wall
Turn around, I gotta a [expletive] magazine with thirty rounds
On a three round burst, ready to fire down
Still against the wall I grab my M-4
Spray and watch all the bodies hit the floor
I bet you never stop loss nobody no more

Here is more info on the Soldier and his situation:
The Coastal Courier in Georgia reports that a Fort Stewart soldier has been jailed after writing a rap song that the Army says is filled with threats toward fellow servicemembers. Spc. Marc Hall allegedly wrote the lyrics excerpted below for a rap song called “Stop Loss,” which protests a highly-publicized Pentagon policy. The article said the song lyrics appeared on the soldier’s personal website
