TPCAN

Yo sufro del trastorno de Asperger, y con este he sufrido rechazos y maltratos que me han llevado a episodios fuertes de depresión y ansiedad. Así he enfrentado una soledad extrema al mismo tiempo que he cargado con el dolor de los malos recuerdos de dificultades que he tenido en el pasado con la interacción social, y la ansiedad y depresión que estos malos recuerdos implican. Trato de distraer estas cargas con otros hobbies, como el arte, dibujando, y pintanto, pero esto solo me ayuda de vez en cuando. Voy a terapia también, pero esta tampoco me ayuda mucho que digamos. Los anti-depresivos que me tomo tampoco me estan ayudando mucho…

¿Qué hago? ¿Vale la pena vivir la vida? ¿Por qué no deberia suicidarme? ¿Qué importaria si yo lo hiciera?

I'd prefer to download songs that have words in them, but instrumental are ok as well.

I want to learn about the United Nations and the way it operates. Are there any movies (fiction/non-fiction) where the UN is a big part of the plot? (i.e. like "the interpreter"?)

How can I know I won't get a disease after having a tattoo made for me, or how can I prevent that? Would it be better if I just don't get one done? I'd really like to, but I don't want to get a disease or anything...

What makes crushes and people falling in love to happen?

I'm a 20 year old teenager from South America who lives in the United States. I fee like my life in SA was pretty decent, but ever since I came to the USA, my life has become a living hell. I have no friends here, and I live with my family here, but I don't have the kind of relationship with them that would allow me to express my innermost feeling with them... or at least not completely. Outside of home, I have difficulties connecting with people, and even getting them to like me in the first place. I have no friends in college. I'm an outcast there- a person that no one would give a **** about there. I've had many psychosocial problems there that are haunting me day and night, and lots of times I feel like I want to kill myself. I wish I had someone to talk to, but I don't. I've even looked for alternatives in facebook mental health groups, but in one of them things ended up pretty badly. Even the group leader was hostile to me, and a total *****, after I had a fight with other users. I hate my college, I hate the people there, I hate the United States, where people are so gay that they will not open up to people who are different from them if their lives depended on it, and I have problems with my family. I did something pretty bad today, and I don't want to say what it is. Luckily things are good now, but the problems sort of remains. Where can I find someone I can talk to face to face? I'm seeing a therapist now, but it ain't cutting it! Sometimes the connection that I make with my therapist is awkward because it only involves patient/therapist relationship, and that's not what I need! I need someone who actually wants to help me...

Sorry for the venting, but I'm in college now, incinerated by the indifference I face by my asshole peers there every single ******* day. I hate those *******.

So... anyone out there? Or anyplaces where I can find someone?

Where is the What Should I do Raterd? Anybody knows?

Do you ever find it hard to get girls to like you? when this happens, does it ever occur to you that all girls may be lesbians in disguise? Let's face it, sometimes they seem to like each other more than they do us guys...

Where can I find this game? :(

In simple words, can anyone explain to me what is the responsibility of the San Francisco Chapter of the United Nations as part of the whole body of the UN?

I'm feeling like I want to kill myself. I feel like I want to tell somebody in this crappy world about how horrible I feel but I'm afraid of the repercussions of doing so, specially if I tell my therapist. As far as I understand, she would be forced to break confidentiality, and to tell an outside agency about my suicidal feelings. This might mean that medication taking will be forced on me, which I do not want. What should I do?

Ok, today I started my third year of college, but I'm not doing as well academically as I probably should... I'm a math education major, and I only had a C in Differential Calc last semester. It was so hard for me, that I don't think being a math teacher will make me very happy. On the other hand, however, I am very good at art and drawing, but because funds are being cut for art, then I'll find it much harder to find a job in this area...

So, what can I do? How can I find a field to major in that will be a balance between a job in decent demand and one that I will be happy with?....

I've been experiencing the so called dysthymic depression for about 5 years. All this time I've failed to make this problem go away, and I'm afraid that recently it's gotten much worse... All of a sudden, I've lost the incentive to even do anything... I don't feel like I can accomplish the things I want to, nor the energy to do the things I want to do because I no longer see how it will make things better for me in the long run... I feel that no matter how hard I try, people around me won't like me for being "mentally ill" or for just having self-esteem problems in general. This problem gets even worse because I can't even talk about these things to my family. Doing so has barely ever had any good outcome... they will simply go on denial about this depression I'm experiencing. Outside of my family I have no support. This means that I have to hold in a lot of the troubles I'm facing.

Where can I find someone I can talk to and be open with? Where can I find someone who won't be so ignorant and judgmental as to say "stop feeling sorry for yourself" or "don't be so selfish." I've tried several hotlines, but I'd rather talk to someone I can stay in touch with for a long time. Where can I find someone? Are there websites or other sources?

Can anyone explain to me what's going on there like you would explain it to a first grader?

Has it ever happened to you that you use websites like facebook, myspace, hi5, and you spend hours and hours using it even knowing you got much more important things to do? IT sure has to me :/

What are some things I can do so that I'm not so vulnerable to that social networking addiction? Are there thigns I can do so that I can get myself to use these sites with more moderation, or should I just stop using them?

I'm a first timer on using contact lenses. I got a pair yesterday, but I can't get myself to wear them for the sake of my life! I can't help but to blink a lot and then my eyes get watery when I try to put them on...

Is there a way I can desensitize my eyes so that I won't feel so uncomfortable when trying to put these contacts on? Did any of you contact lens wearers have problems starting to use your contacts? if so, how did you work it out?

I've tried to download MS-DOS from several sites to install it on my Windows ME, but no setup files for the OS that I've downloaded has actually done the work. I don't know if this is because these setup files are not compatible with Windows, or if I'm not installing the OS the right way...

Which is a site where I can download MS-DOS and a version of it that is least likely to let me down like the ones I've used? Where can I find a guide to install MS-DOS for people who have limited knowledge on that kind of stuff?
