  • have yo noticed the sky getting lighter/whiter in color?

    in your personal experience, what you see with your eyes, do you think the sky was bluer when you were a child than it is now?

    reasoning for question: iv seen a lot of old pictures (70s?) of a bunch of places that have deep blue sky behind them...(but i dont trust pictures)

    but i think when i was a little girl (im 22 now) that the sky was a darker shade of blue

    so i was hopeing to get other opinions to looking back in memory did the sky look blue-er on a sunny day to you then, than it dose now on a sunny day?

  • How do i explain to my long term(2year) boyfriend that if i cut its not a reflection on how good of a man/boyfriend he is?

    So we are Vary happy and devoted happy partners, i had a cutting problem for a long time, but when we started dating i was just starting to get better, weed helped a lot for my insomnia witch in turn helped my self harm... I had been almost a year then i slipped up and cut my self again. He said he would away love me and help me though it... almost another year goes by, then i get stressed out, I start having those thought of hurting my self, i don't say anything i don't want him to worrier, "im fine rely i can do this" and then when i'm alone, those kind of thoughts start racing though my head, then i self harm.I'm 21 years old, when i was 12 i never thought i would be still doing this. i though i was over it, i thought I was better. this addicting "coping method" is getting in the way of my relationship! i love him so much and the disappointment and fear in his eyes when i have to tell him i slipped up again, brakes my hart the guilt of what ive done is unbearable.naturally he hates to see me do that to my self, but he takes it on him self, he thinks I did it because he is not good enough and dose not make me happy, or does not take good enough care of me i've tried to explain to him that the to are separate i don't cut when i'm unhappy i cut when im suffering emotional pain and that is never caused by him, he is the best man i have ever known, i want to stop this cycle for him. i don't want this problem any more, i don't want to have to face him and tell him what ive don.

  • Why do people never believe me when I say I don't want children?

    for the past 7 years I've known and for much more of my life uncertaintly I've known that I do not want children. because of my age any time I mention not wanting children everyone always assume that I will change my mind. I'm so tired of people telling me you'll change your mind

    I've thought it over for meany years I'm not interested at all , even if on the off chance I do change I don't want to bring more life to this shitty world I would adopt a chilled that needs a family. But I really am sure, and my life partner dose not want to be a dad as much as I do not want to be a mom.

    my question is how old is it okay for a woman decide not to have children and why do so many people think I'll change my mind? mothers if your daughter told you they didn't want children with that make you upset? do people think it's wrong for women to not whant children?

  • Why is self harm wrong/ bad? Please read !?

    I'm a recovering cutter , slowly I'm learning that way more people than I thought have this problem but why is this copeing method so bad?I know eeveryone says it is unhealthy but why is it. You get hurt all the time your body heals just the same if you did it international or not plus you are not hurting any one but your self.. I'm stopping this habit because I'm addicted , and no longer gaining controle over my life through cutting. so your answers won't provent me from "getting better". I'm just trying to understand how a non cutter sees this problem.

  • Looking for Aspergers diagnosis and coping help?

    I'm 20 year old woman who has been struggling to cope with the stress in life. I feel I can't handle things that other people can easily do. My mom suggested I have AS a few years ago , we read through lists and personality traits and it seems spot on . Now as I'm getting older I'm trying to keep a job and am struggling. The stress of people relying upon me and not having control over what I do each day drove me to a relapse in self harm. I think work is not the right choice for me so I'm looking into getting diagnosed with AS maybe they can help me learn to work better. Any one know how to find details.

    the cat is a year old and not fixed, she is a torta color cat . so the cat will rub up agents us and play with us but then randomly start attacking , we give her treats when she is calm and pet her plus use soft calming tones, but sometimes when my niece walks by not yelling or being loud or disruptive in any way the cat will jump at her grouling and hissing claws out and try to scratch her. my niece has not yet been seriously scratched but got a few here and there mostly because of swift reflexes on our part ( grabbing my niece or catching the cat mid leap) my sister and I have been bitten and deeply scratched wile stopping the cat from getting my niece. we are looking to help this once mellow cat to feel safe and calm in her new home and stop attacking us. if it dose not stop soon we will have to get rid of the cat for the safety of my niece.

    please if you have any ideas that might help us please comment we don't get rid of this cat just because its having a hard time adjusting but the baby comes first!!
