Epilepsy, for instance. Interestingly, epilepsy in childhood can be associated with developing a mental illness in adult (as is in my case). Now, whether epilepsy itself was a traumatic experience or did the physiological (or biochemical) …

We’ve all heard of deadly but silent. This one was loud but scent-less . Everyone was silent for a moment, probably because this was so unexpected, but they quickly burst into laughter. I tried to join in because I knew it would be suspici…

He got thrown in jail, poisoned and died couple of years ago. I have seen his last interview before he died, sadly he said “We're living in the society that support certain philosophy and system, if you go against the grain they come and g…

The Red Arrow. Some of the students turn around to see where I would sit and I am still unnoticed by the teacher who is busy taking attendance among a swarm of students. I now realize why everyone turned around. There was no vacant seat to…

Now, as I realized that my name will soon be called out and no one would be there to answer, I felt a strong urge to be in the class and say, “present man”. During the attendance,the students ( usually after roll no. 5) would begin to craw…

But, pair it to my previous answer (Shadow Clones) and you would save even more money up because you would hardly have to worry about getting a vehicle for your clones. They can just teleport to work. Buy this shirt: It’s hard being the co…

I am a psychologist who specializes in the treatment of eating disorders and I buy doughnuts when it's time to "blow it out!" One of my father's favorite sayings was "Moderation in all things. Including moderation." Buy this shirt: Hocus P…

I’ve seen my friends who have gotten so messed up in life because of things that were said to them as a kid; they have such low self esteem and confidence and always feel inferior. You cannot afford a car with sunroof but still want to imp…

Five minutes later she was vomiting violently in the waiting room washroom. Five minutes later she was being loaded onto a cart. They hooked her up to the monitors and pulled out bags of vials and needles, all of the machines were pinging …

She was deathly allergic to them but neither of us had thought to check. I ransacked my house for Benadryl, we were out completely. I maintained my outward composure as I told her to get into my car to go to the nearest drug store, a ten m…

I will get you something that will make you giddy, and then you will have one of the best dinners of your life. Whatever you want to do for your birthday, let’s do it, but better. I can make you more aware of how to work people. People clo…

He gets less affection than I think he would like. It’s not my natural state, and it’s not that it’s unpleasant; it’s just not a need for me, and I often forget that it might be for him. It’s unfair, and something that I work to overcome. …

I'm an ultra-rational believer (Christian) — and that’s not to say that I think I’m always right, but that I try to be always honest and rigorous in my reasoning. I like to discuss philosophical reasoning that relates to this. Related topi…

What are the optimal ways to train an adult or child for mastery or world-class level performance in any discipline or skill? Also, how does one optimally self-teach and navigate a complex field on his/her own effectively? What are the bes…

The narc-typicals don’t give you closure, in anything, so the activities and desires and anything or everything with the narc-typical remains as open contracts, which means they remain in memory to be resolved. Which never happens. You can…

In 1999, I co-founded an Internet-based business (online store) with my brother, who is a talented graphic artist. I was completely and utterly bereft of any talent in the creative arts arena, so our skill sets complemented each other nice…

Talk to her and then also ask yourself why you have a problem with her being friends with that particular guy. You, or your friends for that matter, don't have a say in who she should be friends with. If you're sure that that guy is a bad …

If the wound was little fresh i mean not completely closed you may have a chance of getting skin infections,but to be sure no one knows where that dog went and roam in the streets better go for doctor consultation, check yourself for any i…

I used to have a great monagamous sex life with my husband, usually with multiple orgasms during foreplay and intercourse. That was before he became ill and I lost him. My friends reminded me that I had attained everything important to a g…

Plus, I have always wanted to have some privileges you guys enjoy. For example, two of my male friends asked me for a movie but I couldn't go cos the tickets available were only for the night show. They did while I sat at home totally frus…

So yes, I consider it all the time. But the thing is, is the world better off because I leave early? Or is it better off because I leave late? Who knows? We can never know, so in the end it's best to make our decisions based on things we c…

Oh I pay attention to this sort of thing ALLL the frikkin time. I have a cute little anecdote describing the butterfly effect for you. This happened to my friends and me as we were looking for a parking space at the park for the 4th of Jul…

This means you work on having thick skin if they rudely respond - they don’t know your history or background, so don’t take it personally, just smile and move on. Be prepared for whatever response. Maybe they’re in a relationship already, …

Just be friendly, don’t try to hard and if you are witty, you can make some harmless joke. A friend of mine danced with a man and ended up marrying him because he made a joke about her glasses. She could have taken offense but was so used …

Usually models will be built for an entire metropolitan area. They utilize historical traffic volumes, population trends, employment trends, census data, future construction improvement projects and other information as sources. Buy this s…

You'll save a lot of time (not just on the road, also avoiding traffic jams and not looking for parking) and you'll have much more time to spend seeing the cities. Those signs belong to the agency that controls that particular roadway - th…

I'm not sure if that's an older generational thing from persons having lived or still living in the South. That's actually a back handed statement for persons not being present in the conversation going on. Someone will put out a dig of so…

It is what we do with these encounters that render their value to us. Consider that the man who walks looking for lost pennies at his feet may never see the stars above his head. Find a penny and you profit a penny; see the stars and you l…

Those are security screens. They are perfectly clear when you look at them straight on, but anyone sitting a few degrees off to the side can’t see the screen at all. They are quite common on monitors used by people who look at confidential…

Black magic works like this: We put the spirit into the food or drink, someone drinks that and unawarely becomes connected to us, our mind and body. This person sees, feels, hears, tastes, smells and thinks everything that we imagine, thin…
