  • What s the name of this movie?

    I saw a movie years ago and I can t remember much about it only that It was about a boy who had some kind of illness and he was prescribed to take meds. He took the meds because he was informed he would get better but all they did was make him sick and in the end he decided to stop taking them and refuse treatment and die at peace.

  • My parents think I'm a Lesbian????

    I'm 16 years old and I have a sneaking suspicion that my parents think I am a lesbian. I have not had a boyfriend, I would like one, but they generally aren't attracted to me. It doesn't bother me much, I am a nerd, I am focused on my education. I am currently questioning my sexuality, right now I am sure of nothing because I haven't experimented yet. It is upsetting to me because my parents seem to already think I am a lesbian...which concerns me. They have never outright asked me, but I can tell the way they do things. Sometimes they will bring up homosexuality and say bad things about it and how it is gross (their opinion) and they always bring it up around me. Another thing they do is sometimes when we are alone they will ask me about school and if I am interested in anyone. It makes me feel paranoid because I feel like I am wearing a sign around my neck that just says YES I AM INTO GIRLS. I also hate it because I am not ready to tell my parents anything. I am still trying to find out who I am and I don't want them knowing anything until I am absolutely sure. Plus, I am waiting until my grandmother dies. If she knew, she would never speak to me again and I can't handle losing her. So basically, my plan is to tell them within the next 10 to 15 years if I end up being with a girl. It really stresses me out, can anyone tell me what I should do? I am really stuck. I feel like they are pressuring me into a relationship just to prove that I am straight. How can I stop this?

  • Can someone help me interpret this dream?

    I had a dream the other night and I can't stop thinking about it. It was a dream about me I believe. It was a long time from now. I was at a 3rd person view of what I believed to be my life. I was looking at an old woman and watching her. She looked as though she suffered for so long and she was sick and tired, ready to pass on. I saw her look up to the sky and it was if if she was talking to God himself. I could hear her thoughts, she asked God when she was going to die. I heard God's voice now talking directly to me and not the old woman. He said exactly "Soon" and then followed "You will be visited" Over time my memory is starting to fade on detail but no matter what, I can't forget those words. In the dream I felt like I was looking into my future and now I am confused at the end message of the dream. Can someone tell me what this means? The dream in 3rd person, future perspective, and especially the words of God that I can't seem to forget above all else.

  • Can anybody help me make sense of the movie Mulholland Drive?

    I made a mistake in choosing to watch this for movie night. I am confused beyond belief. All I got out of it was that Diane Sellwyn is the real Betty Elms. Betty is Diane's alter self, her dream imitation or fantasy of a better life. Diane is a failed actress who had a friend named Camilla Rhode's that destroyed her life. Camilla got all the best parts and she completely overshadowed Diane. At somepoint the two were involved romantically but the relationship was broken off on account of Camilla falling in love with the director to a movie. Diane ends up plotting Camilla's murder on Mulholland Drive and she feels guilty and ends up killing herself. The thing I don't get is how Rita, Camilla's alter self is figured into this. Was Rita the way Diane wanted her to be? Was she what Diane craved for Camilla to be? I don't know...I am so confused. I didn't know any of this until after I saw the movie and I had to go back online to read the plot and dream analysis quota. Anybody who saw this movie and understands it completely please fill me in. I am so lost. I made a big mistake, but I have to know what it was all about. Thank You.

  • Am I a Lesbian? I don't know....I'm so confused?

    Can someone please help me. I am 17 years old and I am so confused. I have never been this puzzled about what I'm doing. I have no idea who the hell I am anymore. I like guys. I find guys attractive, but when I imagine being in a relationship with one I want to barf. I have alot of guy friends and I really like them as just friends. I really don't want to have a relationship with one of them. Sometimes I can mistake friendships with guys as being a little more than that and then I do want a relationship with them but it never really works out. We end up being so different that I wonder what the hell was I doing with him? Now I find girls attractive too. I want relationships with girls. I have girlfriends but not 'girlfriends' we are just buddies. I want a deeper relationship with girls. I can connect with girls much easier than I can for guys. It just seems like we have so much more in common. We can really make each other happy, and the sex would be so much more interesting....the thing is I like girls my age, but I also like girls alot older than me. I like women with experience, and they are attractive but mature. Is this a phase, I have always felt this way about older women. Am I gay, bi, or what? Please help me. I don't want to be gay because my family won't except me. I can't stand feeling these feelings but I do. I have them every day. I really don't know what to do, this is very bad isn't it?

  • Do I have an old soul? I feel out of place, do I belong here?

    I feel as though I belong in another time. I am only 15 years old but I have felt this way as long as I can remember. I have never really been a child. I have always been sort of mature and wise beyond my years. I am not like your typical mainstream teenager who is always on the phone texting or gossiping. I mean I really don't see the point. When I see someone texting I think its ridiculous, if you want to have a conversation just pick up the phone and dial their number. I also cannot stand the abbreviation text terms such as LOL or OMG, etc. I never shorten my sentences or express my thoughts with such words. I really feel out of place. All of the kids I hang out with are really kids. They text, gossip, watch tv and stupid youtube videos. I do not have the same sense of humor as them. When I am around them I have to adjust myself to fit to their personality. I have to fake my interest in their life so I seem normal. I feel like an outcast. I feel higher than all of my peers and I have always felt this way. I feel as though I belong in a different body, an older body. I feel like I belong in a different age like the 1950s for example. I feel as though I should have belonged to a decade like that. I love all kinds of music, but I treasure the classic music. I treasure the old life and the old ways. I love the old tv shows, the old people, and the old games. I really feel as though I am the wrong soul for my 15 year old body. Can anyone shed some light on this subject? Can anyone relate to my feelings? I feel so alone....

  • What's the right thing to do when you are faced with a family member wanting back in your life?

    This is a long story, I will try to shorten it up as much as possible. Its about my grandmother, she isn't the best person in the world. She is nice and can be sweet at times. She is talkative and overbearing. She is selfish and judgemental. She can also be hateful and downright cruel. You see, she only had one son, who is my father. My brother and I are related to her by BLOOD. She divorced my grandfather a long time ago and married another man. This man already had his own children and their offspring she treated like her own. She did everything in her power to make them her grandchildren. She tried so hard to be accepted into their family and she was. After this happened, my brother and I were shot down to second place. She always put them first. She went to all of their parties and baseball games. She attended every graduation and important events in their lives. The woman lived 3 hours away from us and the other grandchildren, yet she still found time to be with them. As I recall, she only went to 1 of my birthday parties, and that was BEFORE the other grandchildren were born. She never went to any event that me or my brother had. Growing up she always nagged my brother and I about sports and how we should join...blah blah blah. She wanted us to join because she didn't think we were good enough. My brother and I aren't really made for sports. We're both genius's and we have accepted that. We have never been popular, we have always been opposite and that has always bothered her. The other grandchildren are beautiful. They have long blond hair and blue eyes. The boy is captain of the football team, the girl is captain of the cheerleading squad. They are both idiots. She chooses them over us. She threw out her own grandchildren for two bleach blond morons. I can't go on much more or I'll get really pissed because it gets much deeper than this. Anyway, she eventually stops speaking to us altogether. She completely ignored us and pretended we never existed. She made her choice. Her husband died a few months ago and now she is no longer connected to the other grandchildren. She rarely sees them, now she feels awkward and uninvited into their lives because she is not blood. Now she wants back into our lives. I am very very angry at her, but she is my family and somehow I still ******* love her. I don't understand why I still have feeling for her after what she did to us, I am so mad, yet I wonder what the right thing to do is. Should I forgive her and receive no satisfaction in rejecting her like she did me? Or should I not forgive her and tell her she can go to hell? I am conflicted because I just don't know what I should do. I really would like to just ignore her and tell her to **** off, but I still love her and I want to forgive her. She hurt me so badly I just don't know if I can. I feel two different ways about this. I just want to make the right choice. I am a Christian, I am scared if I make the wrong decision how I will feel about it for the rest of my life. One way or another, I will either Regret for the rest of my life Ignoring her, or I will regret for the rest of my life forgiving her. Please help me. I'm sorry this was so long, I wasn't planning on it being this much. I'm so sorry. Thank you for reading this. I'm so so sorry for its length :(

  • What's wrong with me? (Women Only Please)?

    I'm 15 years old and I have noticed some recent changes in my body. For instance, I haven't had my period in 2 months. The last time I had one was in late November. I had it twice that month. The first time I was only spotting light brown blood and it only lasted about 3 or 4 days. 2 weeks later I had a heavy red blood period for a full 7 days. I have always been a tad irregular, usually 2 or 3 weeks off tops. I also rarely ever get red heavy bleeding. I usually get a heavy brown color that will last 6 or 7 days. Now its February and I haven't had a period since late November. I have never had 2 periods in one month before like I did in November, so this is new. Aside from this, my heart has started to flutter. It doesn't hurt or anything, it just will flutter occasionally for like 2 seconds for no reason at all. I don't even have to be moving and all of a sudden my heart will flutter. My Mother says this is hereditary and I shouldn't worry about it because she has the same type of fluttering in her heart. I was just worried about it because I was having problems with my menstrual cycle and this just started happening to me on top of that. Also, I have been getting heartburn more often. It used to never really happen, but a few days ago I started getting a heartburn after anything and everything I ate. I would just eat my food, it doesn't matter if its acidic or not, and I'll get a heartburn or have some Acid indigestion an hour or so later. What is happening to me, I'm scared that my period hasn't shown up and the fluttering and heartburn are mixed in with it. Can someone please tell me what is happening, is there something wrong with my body or is this normal? I want to say before you answer this, I am a virgin so I don't understand why I have stopped getting periods. I've been under alot of stress lately but now issues are starting to resolve themselves. I am a little heavy, but I just started monitoring my diet since I've been having these problems. Please Please Please answer this. Thank You :)

  • Was I Molested as a Child?

    I haven't thought about it in a very long time until recently I have been watching some episodes of Law and Order: SVU and one particular episode struck some nerve in me. All of a sudden I can't stop thinking about something in my childhood. This something happened many years ago and I can't even remember most of it. I was about 6, most likely 7. I'll start from the beginning. It was a hot summer and I was swimming in a pool with my baby brother, we were playing around and he must of said something silly because I gave him a kiss. I remember this because when I got out of the pool my Grandfather asked me why I didn't give him kisses and I said because he wasn't my brother, I only give my baby brother kisses. Anyway, later on that evening my Grandfather, (lets call him Bill) called me into his back room and asked me to give him a kiss. I gave him one on the cheek, he told me to give him one on the lips like I did my baby brother. So I did give him a quick kiss on the lips but after I pulled away he told me to do it again. This time he told me to open my mouth, it was normal and we were family and that was okay. So I did..I can still remember the horrible taste of his tongue slipping down my throat and his beard scratching my face, some of the whiskers from his mustache got caught in my teeth. It didn't last very long, but after he was done he told me it was a special kiss. Only our little secret, and that it was okay because we were family it was normal. He went on to say some other things but I don't remember what. But I left that room somehow loving him even more, I gave him a kiss on the cheek before I went home that night even. I visited my grandparents almost every other day. I remember after this happening sometime later my grandpa would take my brother and I on walks through the woods. He took us so we could enjoy nature and get exercise. Sometimes though he would just take me and not my brother and we would go way up in the woods and he would hold me very close and start to french kiss me like he did that one night in his backroom. For the life of me I can't remember if he ever touched me, and its probably because for some reason I enjoyed it. I didn't want him to stop, sometimes he'd provoke me, but he never made me do it. He'd always ask me, but I never once refused him. What the hell was wrong with me? I couldn't stand those horrible open mouth kisses, he was a drunk who had a terrible smoking habit. His mouth tasted like fresh cigarettes and Bud Light. He used to do this all the time, almost every day he'd take me for a walk in the woods. It only stopped because my parents moved to another house an hour away from my grandparents and I no longer saw them every day. I only saw them maybe once a month. Even then he didn't try to kiss me or take me for one of those walks. My grandparents divorced very shortly after we moved away. He threw my grandmother over for a younger woman. I never saw him again. I wish I could remember being forced or even being touched, all I remember was being coerced at one point, from then on it was of my own consent. But I was only 7 years old, and I always knew in some way it was wrong, but I was never sure if it was exactly illegal since I could never remember an unwanted touch or unwanted kiss. I wouldn't exactly define that as molestation since I gave him consent, even though I was too young, I still for some reason granted permission. Its not like it was Statutory Rape, he never tried to have sex with me. The clever bastard knew how to stay legal. Can someone tell me what exactly that was that happened if anything? I know this happened a long time ago and as I got older through time I realized how wrong it was, but I could never find a name to call it. It hasn't really bothered me, I shoved it deep into my subconscious and I have never looked back. I have carried it around like a stone inside my stomach for the last decade. It used to bother me, but it doesn't so much anymore. I guess I've gotten used to it. Watching this episode of Law and Order only resurrected a few memories. Its really been getting to me lately, can somebody please tell me what it was that happened in my childhood. Thank You to anybody who had the courage to read all this crap, your help is greatly appreciated.

  • What does it mean when you see a dead person in your dream?

    Let me start from the beginning, its my great grandmother. She was someone I loved more than anything in the world. She practically raised me, I used to see her every day of my life. She was the greatest person I have ever known, and probably ever will know. She was a truly beautiful person on the inside and out. She was an angel on earth. She got sick in early 2012 and eventually suffered a stroke leaving her unable to walk or talk. The last time I saw her alive was the day before she died. I held her hand as she lay dying in her bed, She smiled the biggest and most beautiful smile, and I leaned in and gave her a kiss and told her that I loved her for the last time. I wished so much that I could have heard her voice just one more time. She died early that next morning on June 29, 2012. About 3 or 4 days later I had a dream that I was just waking up. I had gotten out of my bed and it was the most beautiful morning I have ever seen. I could hear the birds chirping and I could see the sun streaming in through the windows. I walked out of my bedroom and just as I got to the end of the hall and rounded the corner to the living room, there she was. She was sitting on the couch wearing her favorite clothes and the shoes I gave her for Christmas. The sun from the living room window encased her entire body, it was so bright and so beautiful. She looked right at me and smiled that same beautiful smile. She didn't speak, I tried to say something but nothing came out of my mouth. Then I woke up and that was the last time I saw her until now. Her birthday was just a few days ago, and I was thinking about her, and I even wished her a Happy Birthday in my prayers. But last night in my dreams I saw her again. I don't quite remember what my dream was about, It was very random, all I can clearly remember was seeing her. I was walking in a crowded place and I turned around to see her standing behind me. She just stood there and smiled that same beautiful old smile. She didn't say anything, but this time I could say something. I told her the words "I love you" exactly, except they were in a whisper for some reason. I could not speak in my normal tone. She did not respond. She just stood there and smiled, then she started to fade away and I woke up. I thought it was very strange since I did not see her last year on her birthday, or this year on the day she died. I've only seen her those two times. The first time I could see as a final goodbye, but I don't understand seeing her again for no apparent reason. My life is pretty well I guess. Not too bad, I'm making it. Nothing new is really going on, things are just a little slow. Maybe it would be easier if I were in some kind of trouble but I'm not. Can someone tell me why I saw her again? Is it some sort of sign?

  • Why do I have a hard time looking people in the eye?

    It doesn't bother me around people I know, or who are my friends, but authority figures such as teachers or other school officials it really bothers me. Even if I've known them for awile, its just weird looking at them directly in the eyes. I have a tendency to look at them for a few seconds directly in the eye before I can't take it and I start to look around them for a few seconds and then look them in the eye again for a little bit and break away. This happens in everyday conversation, I am not one of those kids who lie all the time and have problems looking at people. I can just be having a regular conversation, or I could be asking for help and my mind is just telling me to look away. I can't hardly stand it. While this goes through my mind I have this tendency to block out what the people are saying to me because I'm preoccupied by my appearance or something, which is why I don't feel comfortable looking at them directly. Why do I do this? I hate having this feeling everyday, does anybody have some tips or suggestions to help me overcome this thing? Thank You
