Firstly, I'm not very experienced in relationships with the opposite sex and the following may provide some reasoning as to why. I was just wondering what your opinions are on it; both guys and gals. I think part of the problem why I suffer from social anxiety is that I feel that I don't fit...

My counsellor gave me a number to phone for a local charity that supports people with mental health problems. She advised me to attend a building self-esteem course. I rang up this charity and the person on the other said "Hello, Wendy speaking from Community Wellbeing". I replied by telling her...

I'm sure this will sound trivial but it's really bothering me. I don't get much social interaction so online is the only way for me to speak to people. I don't play video games that much but there is one franchise that I am really into at the moment: Assassin's Creed. Anyway, I post on the...

My cat woke me up at 3.50 this morning by dropping a live mouse on my face :eek:. I think she was probably giving it to me as her way of showing her affection for me; I'm quite happy with just a cuddle though. Oh and the mouse is fine; I picked it up and released it back into the garden.

Not many of you will have heard this comment because it was on the Football (Soccer) League Show in England. To cut a long story short a French-born Malian player was accused of showboating because he rolled up his socks whilst in possession of the ball and in a comfortable lead. An...

I'm 22 and desperate for a job. I have never had one nor even any work experience but I want money. I live with my parents and I want to become independent but I am anxious about having to communicate with other people as much as I would have to in a working environment. I also really want a...

Has anybody read anything or seen that video of that complete **** who taped a kitten to a broomstick and drowned it in his bath. Some people are beyond redemption. Apparently he has history after he put a kitten on his bed where a Burmese Python was waiting under the bedsheets and ate it...

I started a thread some months ago about a counsellor that I used to see (people who read that thread will know that I developed strog feelings for her). She really helped me and I gave her a thank you card before she left. My intention was to let her know how grateful I was for her help...

I am a male and adore women just as much as the next guy. However, I have damaged myself possibly permanently, and I was wondering if I am the only one in this situation. I find myself physically attracted to many women but I have always felt disrespectful when thinking of them sexually and...

I seem to get confused very easily as well as forgetful. I was wondering whether it is just me as I am only 21 and these things shouldn't be afflicting me just yet. Earlier today I had a hospital appointment but my train was cancelled so I couldn't make it. I dialled 118 118 and told them that...

I just used this service and I really recommend it, it is free of charge and allows you to speak to a trained professional: https://livechat.relate.org.uk/netagent/cimlogin.aspx?questid=4C35AF12-644C-4EBD-BE61-89F3DEF2F9FB&portid=FC91D8C0-5471-457B-BDAC-D923F521A7C0

I am currently writing my first ever CV and I have two people who are willing to be references for me. This might sound like a really silly question but how do I write them into my CV? How should I structure them into it? How much information on them do I include? Should I mention that one of...

My brother and I argue all the time. He annoys me because he is so arrogant and vain and always makes sure how good-looking he is and how big his muscles are. I have always felt that I am unattractice and haven't seen a future for myself in terms of relationship. However, I spoke with myself and...

I was with a friend of mine at college and I was in a daydream staring at this girl that I really like. A blonde girl behind me asked "Do you like her?" To which I replied "Yes". She then said "Why? She's so flat-chested". I told her that "It's not the size of her chest that attracts me to her"...

I started another thread a few days ago about how naive I am about stepping up to the wider world. I am going to come across as a complete idiot whilst people are reading through this but here it goes. In late July I pre-ordered an item that is due out in November. Through previous experiences...

I have always found the world intimidating. I'm only 21 and live with my parents but I have never had a job either. However, I have been seeing a counsellor and have started to do things that I would never have done before and I now want a job and my own place. The thing is though that I am so...

Hello everyone this is my first post on these forums. I am a 21 year old male and see a counsellor for my social anxiety. In my opinion she is the best counsellor in the world; every week she makes me feel so happy, always knows the right things to say and I feel that she's is the only person...
