Last year I had a maintenance job for a state park. 40 hours a week, approx 1k per month. I was pretty miserable 90% of the time there because there was no way to avoid people or my co-workers, though I did my best and become somewhat of an expert at it. They were all nice and exceedingly...

Pretty self-explanatory. I've been playing a lot of Xenoblade Chronicles for the Wii, as well as the online multiplayer portion of Kid Icarus: Uprising. Between these two games, I've put in approximately 70 hours of game time.

Has anyone here ever started a forum of their own? What was your success level? My thinking is an active forum will lead to more views for the main site. It's in its infancy, and I've been actively advertising but that only does so much. What do you guys recommend? I'm doing a giveaway right...

I'm looking for a quality reviewer willing to review the following games: PSP -MLB 07 The Show -Socom US Navy Seals Fireteam Bravo -Splinter Cell Essentials GBA -Rocket Power Beach Bandits -Broken Sword: Shadow of the Templars I will send you the games, shipping included. All you need to do is...

I know this doesn't directly relate to anxiety, but I figure some of you would be interested in making money writing. I've started a handheld video game review site, Portable Platypus and I want to find another person to help with content generation. I'm paying $3 per review. Not huge, but I'm...

To put it simply, I dread having to work around a lot of people. Customer service is something I'd only take up if I absolutely had no other choice. I prefer solitary work, so working from home is a pretty attractive idea to me. I've been doing this, but it's still not enough (yet) to support...

Some links: The Highly Sensitive Person Jim Hallowes' HIGHLY SENSITIVE PEOPLE :: The Trait of High Sensitivity When I was little, tags on the back of shirts would irritate the hell out of me, and I would ask my mom to cut them off. Itchy clothing literally made me angry. I got headaches pretty...

I've finally come to realize that I have a MASSIVE ego, and I'm an *******. I have a hard time genuinely caring about anyone other than myself. This is where my anxiety stems from. All I have to do is stop thinking about myself so much. Easier said than done, but I'm working on it.

Now that I've come to terms with my sexuality, I'm back in a feeling of bliss. I've been back and forth so many times, for some reason I kept changing my mind, and kept playing the game of deception. I'll tell you though, it takes an awful lot of energy to sustain such a lie for so long...

Fully accept yourself as you are, right at this moment, 100%. It's hard, but the feeling is amazing. It can best be described as bliss. I've felt it a few times, and I was content with whatever it is I was doing at the time. I was happy just doing nothing. It's a feeling of truly being alive...

I'm certain I'm codependent. Here's a link Mental Health America: Co-dependency Characteristics (almost all of these describe me) * An exaggerated sense of responsibility for the actions of others * A tendency to confuse love and pity, with the tendency to “love” people they can pity...

For a few months, I've been pretty down. This is because I didn't know if I was gay. Sounds silly, no? I've never wanted anything but the opposite sex, but this doubt persisted. I spent hours analyzing my past from a third person perspective, and making assumptions about it, instead of...

Instead of even trying to summarize it, just watch it. I don't think you'll regret it. http://www.sprword.com/videos/kymatica/

I'm at a point right now where I'm happy with who I am, and I'm choosing to prolong that feeling indefinitely. Whenever a negative thought about myself enters my head, it has no power. Recently, I've come to an important realization. When conversing with other people, feel them. Pay attention...
