| Maybe it'd help if somebody videotaped you the next time you had a meltdown. Then you could watch it and evaluate for yourself. |

| I used to have those alot, still have them, but have gained much more control over it. Trying to explain to people why you get so worked up over small details or - to them - insiginficant things never worked for me. I appologized afterwards, said I just needed some time to cool down, and tried to e... |

| I dont know how I would be able to feel more secure or safe. It's hard to recommend ways to try to figure this out, as people's circumstances can be so different... plus a person would have to be exceptionally accurate and honest at self-analyzing to be able to direct him- or herself towards a solu... |

| I mean in all contexts. For example I watched a porn video and saw how I could never compare sexually or visually to a porn actress and so decided i was never going to have sex again. I could not cope with the idea of having sex and being crap at it and ugly looking. This serves me poorly as that m... |

| I think that some people will find it easier than others to guide their interests, whereas others are probably better off letting their passions grow organically. I myself have discovered that I'm part of the latter. It's kind of hard for me to stick to an interest if I have to force myself to do it... |

| Great to hear from you as always, MDD123. I hope this past year or so has treated you kindly! If you might be interested in getting some first-hand experience in microbiology, a microbiology lab class could be a helpful way to start out. These classes are available at many community colleges, and ca... |

| Getting a bachelor's degree in microbiology can certainly lead to a career if you want to go that far. You'll have the flexibility to go into research (technician-level positions) or work in more applied areas of the food, medical and other biological industries. Your work can be with private compan... |

| The cost of college is way too much for the challenge they provide. For the same price of a 4 credit hour class at $500 per credit hour, $2,000 that is, a person could easily purchase the textbook and all the materials and supplies for probably half of that. Or they could purchase around 10 to 20 h... |

| Trial separations? Do they really work? I guess with distance the heart grows fonder, but... well, perhaps. They work as an evaluation tool specifically in cases where you suspect that one person (or both) is taking the other person for granted. Just like how one doesn't really know exactly what a ... |
