 Forum: The Haven   Topic: Some questions about depression

As someone who's been diagnosed with a mood disorder, and is fairly close to a diagnosis of bipolar disorder, that sounds very much like the symptoms of depression that I get. People, particularly those who haven't ever been depressed, tend to think of depression as being severe sadness. Sadness, at...

Regardless of the circumstances, if the woman doesn't want to have the baby, she should have the right to an abortion. Her body is supporting the fetus, and as such, it's her choice to make. What right do you have to tell somebody what to do with their own body?

It's entirely possible that eye contact will get easier over time. I don't particularly like eye contact, but if it's necessary I'll look someone in the eyes, and it comes almost naturally with one of my female friends. A lot of people don't actually like looking me in the eyes, as they're 'rather l...

My own dog is far cuter to me than anyone elses dog. Because she's my friend, not some picture of some puppy running around in the snow. Even if she's all lumpy, and there's a tumor above her eye, and there's fur sticking out everywhere and she has scar marks in her fur. She's 11 years old and worn ...

There's only one real way to answer this question. My answer: per everyone above.

Once my boots get here from the US I won't have to wear sneakers though. Still can't believe that I have to pay $78 postage, Australian stores suck.

I'll put it in perspective for you... as aspies we tend to over-react to small things until we learn the sillyness of ourselves. What is more serious, the wars and revolutions in other countries or the fact that you didn't get what you wanted when you went out to eat? Unless you're in those countri...

I use jpeg for the most part, but that's because a lot of my pictures have to go on the internet. If I'm not uploading the image I'll use whatever format's best for the quality of the image. I don't do all that much work with images. are questions like this really important? Questions like this let ...

They already block many words. Anyone who's searching for BitTorrent already knows what they're looking for, I don't think it's going to hurt them all that much.

If they started blocking search results though, I would have a problem with that.

I've always thought that there are triggers in the minds of most people. When something we will call x is said/done and you don't respond in the manner they were expecting one of these triggers "goes off" and then they ask a question related to it. For example, they tell you they got a new girlfrien...

Well done! It's always a nice feeling when a piece of code works. Unless it works on the very first try, then it doesn't feel quite right. My first real program (i.e. One that does something that I need done more than once) was this. I still use it. If you have so time, you should try writing a prob...

Code:
if (grit == 1)
  {
         printf("No it isn't! You have failed at life.");
  }

Seriously though, I'm not sure what you're asking, what's grit? Actually, even if I knew I don't know how to code in basic, only C.

62 words per minute. I'll boost this up to 72 though, because I type much faster when thinking from my head than I do when reading from a screen.

Deadlines make learning very difficult for me. Though I don't learn all that well without them, as far as school goes. Deadlines make me work faster, as I want to meet them, but little learning is done.

I prefer just learning at home. Things work better that way for me.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was family connections. Seriously, I see and hear about so many people getting easy jobs or "well, let's give them a shot" jobs just because some cousin is already working there. That seems like the easiest way to get a job. Unless you're working in something technical,...
