What are a few good graduate universities for psychology in Europe?
I've been looking into possibly going abroad for my masters degree and I've been researching universities for years. But I would really like some more insight in the choice.
I'm considering France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Norway, and Germany as possible countries right now.
4 AnswersStudying Abroad4 years agoIs my dog having a stroke/seizure or is a nightmare?
Out of no where my dog will make a horrible howl screaming noise. He s completely asleep during this. It sounds like he is in pain, but he seems perfectly fine. He wakes up right after looks around and goes back to sleep. He does have a begin tumor under his right front leg. Could this be causing this to happen? He also wakes up right away if I touch him during this. Sometimes his back will arch sometimes, or he ll flop over on his side leaning up against the fireplace that is right behind his bed for support or nothing at all.
My dog is a twelve and half year old pug. He has no health conditions other than his age.
2 AnswersDogs4 years agoWould it be a impossible dream to get into a university in Japan for my graduate studies?
I've been doing a lot of research of countries where I could work on my master's in psychology in. Right now Japan is one of the top countries I'm considering. I also have a minor in international studies and study abroad in Thailand. The main university that caught my eye is Kansai University. I'm not just studying abroad but hoping to actually be able to work as a psychologist in Japan therefore the easiest way is just to do my graduate studies there.
My concern is the entrance exam, which I wouldn't be taking for at least another year. I'm worried that my Japanese abilities won't be strong enough for the exam since I'm self-teaching myself Japanese with the aid of talking to online language exchanges. My Japanese is only at a basic level right now so I have a long way to go in the next year.
1 AnswerStudying Abroad5 years agoShould I drop this class? Urgent question.?
I've been taking Spanish for two weeks. But everytime I go I get really frustrated because I can't seem to get it. The teacher gets frustrated because I can't speak Spanish when she calls on me. I end up fighting back tears the entire rest of the class. I had the same issue with French one day two years ago when I was a Freshman in college and just broke down because the teacher had belittled me about something. I made it through French barely, but I didn't continue it because of math requirements. I'm thinking of doing French after two years next semester instead of torturing myself with an extra class I'm struggling to grasp and our first exam is in two weeks. I need a quick answer because tomorrow is my last drop date without a mark on my record.
6 AnswersHigher Education (University +)5 years agoShould I take my dog when I leave my parent's home?
My dog is twelve years old. I've had him since grade school and I've been looking into moving into an apartment around December or January. Being my dog's age I'd feel bad taking him from the only home he has known. But I went away for a week during high school and he sat in front of my door the entire time and starred it and sometimes cried.
But he has a very set schedule with my parents. My dad takes him out every morning at three when he goes to work again around noon or one and then around eight. As a college student there is no way I'm getting up at three to take the dog out in the city. Now the good thing is I'm going to room with my best friend. So its not like he's going to be alone all the time while I'm at work or in class. But she's also in college but she won't be taking the crazy amount of classes I am.
My parents also my younger cousins living with them who are 6 and 9. The nine year old doesn't care much for the dog but the six year old sort of does. He mostly likes to argue that the dog is his not mine. :p But there are a lot of people in the house and in his old age he's starting to get ornery and freaks out when someone is drinking.
Any suggestions on what to do and how to go about taking about it with everyone?
8 AnswersDogs5 years agoFull body apparition or a trick of the eye?
It was elven o'clock at night. I sat outside to listen to music. I look over from the chair I was at and see a person with light brown hair and a flash of blue clothing. I shake it off and then looked back over and see it again. It walked right pass a group of trees and appeared again on the other side then disappeared. I saw another thing like this when I was eight and it walked passed the window in morning around 7 am, but that could be an overactive imagination. This has been twelve year gap if this meanings anything. I've heard voices, seen shadow people and had things be thrown out of cabinets. But this is the first time that as an adult I've seen this.

2 AnswersDental5 years agoHow would this guardianship situation work out?
This is not a real situation but an situation in a story I'm writing.
The character is living in Kenya when their parents are killed in a car accident. They are an American citizen. The only family member they have in America is their eighteen-year-old sister, whom is going to University. The paternal grandparents are in Kenya and the maternal grandparents in England. But who would get guardianship?
3 AnswersLaw & Ethics5 years agoHow to know your own sexuality?
I've been with guys and girls neither in sexual ways. And its not because I'm asexual, which at one point I thought maybe. But I am sexual attracted to men. There is an attraction to women too but its not in a sexual way. Everyone around me is straight, gay or bi and I don't know what I am. Anyone been through this or have any words of advice here. I know it shouldn't matter that much, but its kind of hard to date when I don't who I am really.
3 AnswersLesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender5 years agoAm I an Indigo child or am I just seeing myself in what I am reading?
This is for serious people that do believe in such thing or not. I'm not big on labels but I'm humoring it, it was brought to me by a friend.
As a young child I would start crying if someone would walk into the room in a bad mood. By the time I was school-aged I got into my uncle's, whom was an jerk in nice term, face and told him 'I don't have to listen to you'.I'd often get angry at teacher's who were very closed minded. I never would rebel because I was afraid to due to parental pressure.In 7th grade a teacher singled out my friend and I refused to do what the rest of the class did (she made everyone get up and get up to get stuff off the floor to show how 'distracting' it was, it wasn't right but it happened). In high school I'd react poor to teachers and often purposely do something wrong or not all just to get them angry then I'd do it. My last year of high school I started to get a strange percation thing when around a lot of people or stressed out in a small room. The room begins to feel like I'm on a boat swaying then part of the room goes forward as I go backwards but if I stop and just look around it goes away or if I ignore it and keep walking.
Any thoughts? I'm not sure if I believe in such things but from what I read I seemed to fit the bill fairly well. I was born in the 90s, which was a big period for Indigo if you want more information please send a message or whatever.
8 AnswersParapsychology6 years agoOver-sensitivity or anxiety disorder?
Ever since I can remind I react very badly to negative energies. A person can just be mad in general around me and I"ll get upset. As a small child my dad just looked at me the wrong way and I started to ball.
Now in college I'm faced with the fact this may not be normal to end up into tears every time I'm criticized or yelled at. I don't know if I bottle stress and that's how it releases or what. But it's getting annoying. People see it as immaturity but I'm actually very mature.
I lost my mother when I was two and my father gave me to my grandparents to raise. (No one say sorry, I don't even remember it). However, as good as my grandparents were to me the expected me to be perfect all the time and I was nearly always perfect b/c I didn't want to let them down. I'm still living with them while I go to a local university and every time they criticize it's like a punch to gut. I know it's not healthy if that's how it makes me feel but I can't leave, I don't have any money to do so. I don't know if is b/c of the fact I lost my mother and my father (whom admire greatly for giving me to my grandparents when he wasn't able to provide for me) may have created an anxiety disorder, afraid if I made someone unhappy they'd disappear (subconsciously). I'm a psychology major so I know some about this but if you start thinking about all the things you could have you'd have everything. I've used unorthodox things to help and it's helped some. But if its a disorder it won't get better.
3 AnswersPsychology6 years agoIs this demonic or spirit haunting?
This weekend I had the house to myself at night, I'm out in the living until nearly two that night. From eight until I went to bed I kept hearing scratching in my aunt's room like something was trying to be open the door but not being able to. I went to bed and slept fine not thinking about it until morning. During the day while she was gone I started to hear falling things and bangs against the wall that shook my bed.
My aunt herself is a horrible alcoholic and she gets very nasty when she drinks though she's not very pleasant sober either.
I think it's a demon in her room. She has blown out two light bulbs in a week. I've always hated that room even before she moved back in, that was her room as teenager as well. As I child I was very sensitive to spirits and I knew something bad was in there and I used to see a black shadow until the death of my great-grandmother then it disappeared When my mother was young she would get sudden spirits of rage. I've felt something try to influence me to do harm to myself but since I moved in the drawing of my mother into my room it has stopped. I feel whatever it is can jump into procaine dolls in a cabinet in the living room.
3 AnswersParanormal Phenomena6 years agoCan I join the Navy with a childhood history of asthma?

5 AnswersMilitary7 years agoSpirit experiences or reaction to traumatic lose of my mother as a child?
As a child I had multiple experiences with ghosts. I've heard my name be called one time by a woman that sounded so familiar I thought my grandmother called me. I saw a solid black figure wave at me though a window. I saw a solid figure, which looked identical to my deceased mother, I had a side view, go past the window. I went outside no one was there. Every night until the death of my great-grandmother I saw a shadow figure come into my room pace then leave, which precedes dreams with a man standing in my doorway with blond haired blue eyes, dressed in overalls, I got the feel was from the 1950-65.
I am still skeptical about these childhood experiences because I lost my mother at a very young age, which is very traumatic. .But my grandmother did have a cousin that died who had a mental disability that was close my great-grandmother. Who died in the mid-60s, Whom may have gone with my great-grandmother to the afterlife.
The closer I get to being 18, which is in couple of weeks it's getting worse. Whispering, shadow figures, and visions. I seen saw a solid little girl in a purple shirt and pink leggings playing in the front yard with curly brown hair, which really creeped me out b/c it was nearly identical to me as a kid. I also saw red glowing eyes in a tree, grabbed my bible and asked for protection from angles, I haven't' seen the eyes since. Every single night the same time I see red figure, it looks almost like one of those cloaks similar to Little Red Riding Hood.
4 AnswersParanormal Phenomena7 years agoI just graduated high school and I should be happy but I'll I can do is cry. How can I stop this and why?
I just graduated high school six days ago.I noticed I've lost ten pounds without even trying, I didn't think much of it. I felt fine until yesterday and now I feel like a weight a million tons heavier. I've gone from no stress to about a ton of stress. I was until my grandma started complaining about when I was registering for college, for carrying around my prepaid credit card (which I'm not going to stop doing), and then I leave and come back and she starts talking to her sister about me and I start sobbing again. She doesn't realize how much it hurts and that I still need some support, just because I graduate doesn't mean I'm an adult right away. Then today she wakes up at 7 in the morning yelling at me about dolls I haven't played with in six/seven years and haven't seen for two and starts saying how I don't take care of anything. Then I start sobbing again. I'll sob for twenty minutes uncontrollably and unconscionable, I detest it when someone tries to comfort me. I've had bouts of this before but never where I've felt this bad. My stomach is turning, I have a headache and I feel like I want to through up. I can't go back to sleep.
The last time I had crying this bad was my eighth grade year and first year of high school. After my dad went to prison. I literal sat in my closet and sobbed. Then my grandma decided to yell at me and say it wasn't 'normal teenage behavior', only made it worse.
I'm only 17 and I don't turn 18 until August and I don't have anywhere to go.
1 AnswerMental Health7 years agoShould I see my doctor after a mild blow to the head?
I woke with little kids at work and we were outside on the playground. One of the kids was going down the pole rather fast and I happened to be at the bottom talking to another kid and the kid on the pole swung around the pool and his foot came around a whacked me. I felt a bit out of it after it but I pushed it off until the center closed. I didn't think it was that big of a deal. Then I went home and I had a mild ringing in my ears but it went away (this was about a half hour after getting whacked) and forgot about it until this morning. I had a really hard time staying awake. By the time I got to school this morning I had a headache on front right side, tenderness where I got hit, tension in my neck and shoulders, the ringing is back, my ears will hurt when I try chewing and I just can't focus. I'm not sure if I should make a doctor appointment. It just has me worried because in January I had my first concussion and I didn't go to the doctor but my friend who is on the football team told me that I was acting like I had a concussion, I had the whole personality change thingy. I'm concerned this is another concussion even though the blow was't' that hard. Should I see the doctor or is going to the school nurse enough?
2 AnswersInjuries7 years agoHow can I believe in God but question the bible?
I have always believed in God but as I've gotten older I've questioned the bible. I don't agree with everything in the bible. Does that mean I'm going against God? I also don't believe one religion is wrong that in the afterlife you experience what you believe in. How is that seen? I also don't believe in the traditions of just Christianity but Judism. Combined together the two religiously lifestyles make sense to me. I don't really considered myself Christian or Jewish despite having family that are both. But I believe in God. According to the bible what will happen to me when I die?
I am looking for people who really understand the bible and God. Please don't answer if you are going to be rude and belittle me.

I missed my period by a month now but I keep showing signs of PMS. There is no way I'm pregnant since I'm not with anyone or had sex. I do have hypothyroidism, I don't know if I need a higher dosage. I have gained weight the last view months but my other periods were fine.
1 AnswerWomen's Health8 years agoWhat does this strange paranormal event mean if anything?
I saw an apparition of a little girl that looked a lot like I did as a child. It was there for a few seconds but long enough for me to get a good look. The apparition had her back turned to me. I could see curly light brown hair that was being tangled by the wind, it was windy out, she had on a blue shirt and black leggings, an outfit I wore quite often as a kid. I'm just really confused since I'm not dead. Nor do I have any sisters that have died. My mom died but I don't think she'd appear as a young version of me and it has been many years.
3 AnswersParanormal Phenomena8 years agoHow To Tell Family Member They Aren't Being A Good Parent Or Houseguest?
Recently a family member has moved in with me with her two kids after her husband left her. She's an alcoholic. She has two boys, one is six the other is three. She still lets the six year old sleep with her and not the three year old. She always yells at the three year old when he does something wrong until he cries. While when the six year old does something wrong she let's him keep doing it. She only threatens her kids. She is always threatening spanking. She'll spank the three year old but not the six year old. She always buys stuff for the six year old but nothing for the three year old. Her ex-husband does the same thing. She treats the six year old like he is three and the three year old like he is six. To make it worse the six year old is a spoiled brat that doesn't listen to anymore.She tells the three year old to go away all the time.
She is also mean to my dog in my house! I've told her countless time not to talk to my dog like that. She always threatens to kick my dog, she never does but every time I hear it I want to scream at her. She is extremely rude to me, she looks at me in degrading way. Sometimes I want to flip her off. I tried telling the people that own the house but it's hard when everyone is family. Is it bad to say I hate her when she's family?
I can't stand it anymore. Either I say something or else I call Child Services, I don't care if she's family or not. She isn't only doing the above but drinking while drinking with her kids in the car. I swear if she doesn't stop I'm going to erupt.
