  1. ....Always understand the supernatural as an extension of the natural - DO NOT approach it as an opposite[/i']! Understand that the supernatural - if it exists at all - is poorly understood in today's world, but with enough diligence and patience, those who want to can come up with intelligible explanations.

     

    I never believed in the supernatural, ghosts, or any other external entitys. I didn't think that way when I was little but as I got older I gradually became aware that they just don't exist. I can't explain the things I feel or hear or why I get drawn so far into someone any better than I already have and although I still have my up days and down days, I'm coping with it.

     

    I have tons of links on everything from cognition to mirror neurons with the hope that someday someone will hit on an answer for people like us. But right now, forget those external entitys and manifestations....

  2. (When I was younger) Covering my head with tin foil every night for a week to stop those vibes.

     

    (My dad) Adding six quarts of oil to his antique car as I watched it come out the bottom and flow down the driveway. I didn't say anything because I was only 10 and didn't know.

  3. I disagree with several points here' date='

     

    sometimes it IS hormones!

    and yes children DO need us AND to caution them when they do wrong, without that you cannot show love or provide security and stability.

    "de-humanise" is YOUR word here, no-one elses, so lord only knows where That came from?

    as for the respect, of teenagers, That must be earned, and that applies right across the board (IMO).

     

    being close to your Children is NOT a bad thing, quite the opposite in fact, and no they Don`t hold this picture of you changing diapers when they`re 16, they grow WITH you, there`s no Constant retained like a photograph, that sort of thing only occurs when you`re NOT close to your children! :)[/quote']

     

    Yep....

     

    My dad is 66 years old to my 18 and yet we are closerthanthis. He teaches me and I teach him and although our interests are very different we listen to each other. :)

  4. Sigh. As I've said yes I do smoke pot regularly currently. I was not under the influence of any drugs at the time of any of the things that have happened to me with my empathy. All the things that I've posted on here happened to me when I was stone cold sober.

     

    I've only recently began smoking pot again because as I said it's the only thing that seems to help my depression ' date=' which without it is too intense for me to deal with.

     

    Also as I mentioned my last bad drug induced experience was also my first one, and caused me to swear off any strong drugs. Pot doesn't make me freak out or see strange things, and in fact I would have to say it impairs me noticeably less then alcohol does, which is why I dont drink anymore either.[/quote']

     

    Sorry Mike90.... I never picked up on you doing pot. In your other posts when you mentioned "drugs" I assumed prescription medication given by a doctor. I may have missed other references too.

     

    I've never done any "Pot" so I don't know for sure but I would bet they could have residual, long lasting effects, so even when your off of them... your really not.

     

    Again, just a guess, but if you are truly like me you could easily be pushed to halucinations with the right kind of "drug". Pot is nothing to fool around with because it affects us much differently than normal people.

     

    Get off of them asap....

     

    Your friend.... Bee

  5. I haven't given this any thought so I'm treating it as if I had to leave the USA in a hurry. So with that, I would pack a quick bag and head to China. We had some Chinese exchange students and I got to know them very well.

     

    China is mostly atheist but tolerates non violent religions so if I wanted to taste religion, I could be a Buddhist. China is beautiful, devoid of the "bad" religions and with its million person army I would feel protected.

     

    I know its freedoms are limited, but I'm not in want of anything special.

  6. wait... what? Does this sound like a reference to homocide to anyone else?

     

    Since you asked.... No. IMO it sounds like this.....

     

     

    Attention-seeking trolls

     

    Off-topic complaints about personal life, even threats of suicide: sometimes, this is the "cry for help" troll. In other instances, this type of trolling may be for amusement.

     

    Messages containing a deliberate flaw or error: "I think 2001: A Space Odyssey is Roman Polanski's best film." Or "Federico Fellini is the Greatest Living American Director"

     

    Asking for help with an implausible task or problem: "How do I season my Crock Pot? "

     

    Intentionally naive questions: "Can I cook pasta in Evian instead of water?"

     

    Trying to look for vulnerable people and being offensive to them.

     

    Messages containing a self-referential appeal to status. "Pepsi is for white trash. I prefer a real soft drink like Coke."

  7. Mike90...

     

    No, I haven't left this thread but it was never able to help me and that was the reason I came to SFN in the first place. I also had no place to go and all the previous sites I joined consisted either of liars who claimed to bend various objects, project thoughts across vast distances, or just plain wierdos. I don't go to those sites anymore.

     

    You seem to be like me. Whats normal to most people becomes overly sensitive and overwhelming to us. For example, when a normal person looks at a dead animal on the road, they see a dead animal. I don't. I feel it. I feel the pain and the suffering it went through. I see babys waiting for their mother and I can go on and on until I spiral down a black hole. So, I have to be on guard all the time for things like that, which I call "sinkholes".

     

    When it hits me I have to do what Gib, Gutz and others here have done to break that feeling. I have to look away, count to ten out loud, sing a song, or just yell something. Anything to stay above that hole because if I lose, I am haunted by it for weeks as it plays over and over in my head. Sometimes, I call my friends and chat, or go to the mall because good friends are my best medicine and yes, the pills my analyst gives me help me to cope even though I still think he is sucking my dad dry. The bottom line is that for people like us, being happy is something that has to be worked at every day or even every hour to keep above that abyss that wants to pull us in. It suxs.

     

    The other half I already mentioned much earlier. The scary part. What I "hear" and what happens to me when I look at certain kids and certain seniors... especially the troubled ones. It gets really wierd and I'm not going to talk about that here but I've finally learned to separate it from the overly sensitive part of me. PM me if you know what I mean or want a better explanation...

     

    You also mentioned suicidal thoughts. I had those thoughts several times when I was ten and eleven where I just wanted to die and actually tried to hold by breath, smother myself with a pillow, and drown myself in the tub, but thankfully none of it worked and I was too young to think of something more drastic. I haven't had those thoughts for eight years now because I like being alive.... an awful lot. If you are working, your insurance will most likely cover a physco doc that can help you with meds.

  8. He was great with kids, and to me, thats his legacy. I felt bad when I heard he died and cried when I looked at the youtube video clip of him crying over the death of an alligator.. :-(

     

    What a great guy he was.

  9. http://www.infoplease.com/spot/taliban-time.html

     

    Here's a bit of the Taliban's history' date=' for your refference. The USA's influence was much much later.

     

    ~moo[/quote']

     

    Thanks for the link... What a bunch of sickos the Taliban are.... Most sickening to me is -

     

    "Taliban bans the use of the Internet, playing cards, computer discs, movies, satellite TV, musical instruments, and chessboards, after declaring them against Islamic law."

     

    After that came any form of ball game, kite flying, non-religious books, magazines, weather forcasting, girls going to school, picnics, etc, etc.

     

    Great to be free!!! Bee.

  10. That's what tends to happen when you have a pointless topic.

     

     

    I know Rebui's stated goal is 'humanize' these people. On the contrary' date=' it's just demeaning them to a list.[/quote']

     

    I think he knows exactly what he's doing and I'm not going to bother with his threads anymore.

  12. Well, wasn't there some poll showing that 20% of British muslims felt the London underground bombings were justified? That's well over a million people who were willing to admit to a pollster that they felt the the indiscrimite murder of British people is a good thing. Perhaps they should be keeping track of more poeple than that!

     

    Sure....right here...
