Could anyone shed any light on why this should be? l feel that l need some ...

Happy Thanksgiving from all of me's to all of you's

Lolo and a whole bunch of others :D

A very important friend in my life and I have been having some issues. We have known each other for a few years, but over this past year we have become very close, talking everyday, but we live pretty far from one another so we only see each other every so often.

Hi, Steve Lord here in Santa Barbara , California

Staring at tv snow or static being random all frequency "white noise", puts the viewer in ten seconds into what I believe is a theta brainwave state which continue for as long as the viewer continues to view the static.

Finally got cut loose from my situation with my xHPDGF.

Ultimately during one of our “disputes” I pulled a “her”.

I don't think that you always have to see in order to believe someone or something. But I guess that' s only my opinion.
I don't know what I do wong if I try to be opened and tell the truth. Well, I told my mom that the first memory I have is since I was in the 5th grade. She asked me if I remember this and that from kindergarten and primary school and ...

I know I'm not the only one here to deal with this, who else here? in social situations has dealt with headaches .. toothaches.. basically severe pain in silence.. simply because social interaction is totally non-bearable.. evan if it's just asking for some medicine which would end the suffering right away. I was at my aunt's home monday or tuesday and my teeth had been hurting really bad so I wasn't going to eat that ...

Hi there fellow posters and lurkers,

I recently developed a huge inexplicable crush on a girl who is not looking for a boyfriend and wants to be just friends. I understand her and would want to forget my feelings for her but I just can't control my emotions. I have never felt anything like this before, one moment I'm just fine and next I'm crying like there's no tomorrow ...
