Why am I dissociating? And why does no one believe me?
Forgive me if this is long I'll keep it short as possible and thanks for reading my mess also I'm new here hi everyone.....
I've had Depersonlization and Derelization since about maybe 4 years old. That's a far back as I can remember having it.
I've also had this other voice with me since I was very little, she's like me sounds like me but she isn't. I've told my previous therapist about it but she didn't take me seriously nor did she really understand what I felt she never even heard of dp and dr before.
I told her about the voice that sounds like me but isn't but she kept trying to put me into this box saying "voices" when I told her it was only one. I guess two if you count me. We talk 24/7, about movies, and music, about what to say what to type what to eat for dinner. She even wakes me up sometimes when I'm sleeping.
I've told my mom before but she rolls her eyes at me, telling me "it's all in your head." or tells me to "stop it, there's nothing wrong with you."
I noticed that when I have my phone near me at night when I'm asleep. When I wake up I check the search history and a bunch of things that I never looked up appears.
This is why I don't keep computers or phones near me. Because I think she does things while I'm asleep. I've had people ask me why I said this, that and the other and I have no idea what they're talking about.
I noticed that lately it's been happening during the day, I can go out to the store or just be driving, come home and completely forget that I left the house. It's like a dream a very vague dream it 's foggy, I forget I've even been out anywhere. I feel like I should be scared but I just feel numb and distant from everything and everyone.
(I have Aspergers I am on the autism spetcrum, just thought I mention that.)
My eyes roll back sometimes too (I know this sound insane but it happen I'm not sure what it is.) I've read that people with DID sometimes have their eyes roll back or may feel like they're falling.
I don't know what to do when I've been to a therapist two of them actually, I've been going to that therapist for a year in a half now, and she never believed me so I cut her off recently. She didn't even ask why.
I'm done with therapist all they ever ask is for my money and when I'm going to pay completely ignoring my concerns.
If this is DID I have no idea how it happened, I only ever lived my mom and she was fine, she never hurt me and never had any strangers around me.
Maybe it's not DID and more like a spirit, maybe I had a twin and she died in the womb and our souls like merged together and we share the same body now.(I've been speculating)
Depersonlization, feels like my hands and legs don't belong to me, I look at myself in the mirror and feel like I'm seeing someone else. Derelization having it right now as I type this, my eyes feel so strange and everything is like I turned the contrast up on my t.v. I've had that since 4, I remember coming home from Kindergarten in tears because "I don't feel real." I told my mom.
She didn't understand what I meant, they took me to doctors they didn't understand I was healthy. And what do you mean "You don't feel real, you're right here you're real."
I just want to know why why this is happening to me and why at such a young age, why am I doing things and not remembering why do I have dp and dr.
Thanks if you read this, I know it's long I just hope someone can reply or relate to me.

Re: Why am I dissociating? And why does no one believe me?
If you have ever read Elron Hubbard's book: "Dyanetics" you would see that he talks about traumas occurring in the womb.
It is very easy to traumatize, even, a newborn to four year old toddler. It does not have to be physical abuse that causes a dissociative disorder. Anything that scares the toddler, anything that causes emotional or psychological stress to the toddler, or anything that causes emotional pain to the toddler can cause a dissociative disorder.
Many of Dr. Colin Ross's patients' dissociative disorder exhibits just like mine. It is extremely hard to tell one personality from another. My family was dysfunctional but not total psychopaths. My Dad would have gotten me help if he could tell one personality from another.
Even with Sybel and Eve, the family members did not see anything wrong. But it is the dysfunctional family that causes the mental illness.

Re: Why am I dissociating? And why does no one believe me?
a lot of professionals have a hard time believing in DID and the spectrum. dissociation in general like the depersonalization and derealization is more known/accepted, but even that is difficult for some professionals to grasp the concept of.
you could have had some trauma as a young child. even emotional neglect, etc. can cause a level of trauma and detachment which could cause a child to dissociate. not sure if you had emotional neglect or not. i had it in the way that my mom (single mother of four at one point) had to work to support our family, and when i wasn't at school, i was at a babysitter's. she also wasn't able to give me the emotional support i needed and neglected me in that way as i was highly anxious. she didn't mean to do that but did the best she could given the situation. i did have a lot of other traumas though early on, so that was just one type.
have you seen therapists that work with dissociative disorder clients? if not, they might be a better type to consult with. maybe you could find some to phone and ask questions before you decide if you want to see another one or not.

Re: Why am I dissociating? And why does no one believe me?
here's an idea that may prove to them once and for all if you have a dissociative disorder or not. ask to go to a psychiatrist for testing. there are special tests that can tell you, your parents and your treatment providers whether you have any mental disorders and what they are. they will also be able to get you to a medical doctor who can do some tests to find out if you have and physical medical problems that are causing your eyes to roll back in your head. if it turns out that you have a seizure disorder like epilepsy you will be prescribed a medicine that will stop the seizures. or at the very least you will have less of them.

Re: Why am I dissociating? And why does no one believe me?
There are things that can cause dissociative disorders other than parental abuse. There could be abuse by someone other than a parent, premature birth, painful medical procedures and other things.
For most people, DID starts at a young age, so it would not be unusual to have dissociated as a young child.
For me, figuring out why I dissociate has not been as helpful as working to integrate, and I have needed an experienced therapist to do that. I think you may need to work with someone with experience in helping people with DID to get an accurate diagnosis and understanding of how to heal.
I am sorry you are not getting answers. Losing time can be embarrassing, dangerous and confusing. It caused me to isolate, which did not help my recovery.

Re: Why am I dissociating? And why does no one believe me?
So sorry you are going through this...but also, welcome to PC!
MD doctors don't get it because they just deal with the physical aspects of human anatomy....and therapists that don't understand are not trained to do so. With dissociative disorders....one needs a T trained in trauma therapy.
As far as initial trauma...from what I get...abuse is not neccessarily the root cause of dissociation leading to DID...it's plain trauma: anything a babies' dissociated mind can't process....like death, an accident...murder...the loss of a mother's touch or presence or never felt....
A babies mind associates after 5-7...whenever...but trauma prevents this, hence parts/alters/Others/states/....
The womb trauma interests me....because pinning down our initial trauma (which creates a traffic jam of unprocessed trauma (we got 20+ years worth))...
It just takes therapy with a T that can help guide you through the pain.
Oh I hate the dp/dr thing....funny how I always thought that it was normal....
Good luck and hope that you keep posting.

Keep looking for a therapist who believes you, not all therapists or counsellors have had training about dissociative disorders.

Re: Why am I dissociating? And why does no one believe me?
Incidentally, I have DID and Aspergers...we kind of sat up straight when you got to the autism spectrum.
My gummy-bear died. My unicorn ran away. My imaginary friend got kidnapped. The voices in my head aren't talking to me. Oh no, I'm going sane!

The biggest issue in the United States still has to be the upcoming presidential election, seeing as how it has yet to happen and will significantly color at least the next four years of world policy, but lately it's not feeling like much of an issue at all. The final debate cemented what was already becoming apparent to a majority of voters: We were deciding between a candidate who is thoughtful and collected and one who is fiery and uneven, between a candidate who can process complex issues quickly and speak intelligently to policy concerns and one who resorts to oversimplification and false allegations, and finally, dare we admit it, a candidate whose bearing and insight are appropriate to the office of the presidency versus one whose bearing and insight—at least as expressed during the debate—are not.
There's no need to spell out which candidate is which, but in case there's any doubt, this Frank Rich editorial could more or less stand as a proxy for my feelings about one of them:
Another amusing op-ed piece, and one more appropriate for those who resent liberals recommending liberals, is that of David Brooks. Brooks can be very insightful about sociological issues, but he struggles to balance his conservative views with even-handed writing. Usually he succeeds, but at times it becomes clear that his success comes at the cost of great effort. One such case was when he wrote this failed attempt at satire that bitterly mocked the tone of the democratic convention. It cost him some of his cache not only by starkly revealing his bias, but by demonstrating a surprising capacity for contempt for his political opponents. This past Friday, however, he posted an interesting article on Obama in which he refers to him as a "homeostasis machine." At times there may be glimmers of Brooks struggling to reign in his desire to smear Obama, but at other times his penetrating insight is manifest in his critique of the leading candidate.
It's hard to see at this point what path could lead to McCain winning the election. He continues to disappoint both in and since the final debate, condescendingly (and inaccurately) talking to voters about "Joe the Plumber," disingenuously bringing up William Ayers and ACORN, claiming to campaign honorably while his insufficiently informed (i.e., dangerously ignorant when placed in the context of what a person in her position could be expected to know) VP selection accuses his opponent of consorting with terrorists. It's a very odd feeling to be disappointed by the performance of the candidate you always hoped would lose the election, but that is what many of us on the left side of the cultural divide are feeling. Is there anyone out there who doesn't agree that these campaign tactics are condescending and disingenuous?
* * *
As a side note, I can't speak for the Arab community, but I don't blame McCain for the apparent distinction he made between Arabs and good family men. It seems apparent that McCain correctly interpreted the intention of the speaker, who didn't mean "person of Arab descent," but rather something along the lines of "dangerous non-Christian foreigner and likely terrorist/sodomist." So McCain in this case responded in good faith to the speaker's intention, and unfortunately did not pay sufficient attention to her choice of words. This doesn't excuse the woman's ignorant racism, but McCain cannot be held accountable for it.
* * *
And while we're questioning people's motives, isn't it a little convenient for Colin Powell to come out in support of Barack Obama at this late stage of the game? It isn't that anyone doubts his sincerity. Through all the scandal and secrecy of the Bush administration, Powell has emerged as someone who behaves honorably and can speak his mind when the situation calls for it. Still, what could be more politically expedient? To further his own career, Powell needed to join a campaign early enough to affect the election, thereby displaying his loyalty and earning gratitude. However, he had to make sure he joined the right campaign. So, he waited until the debates were over, and then jumped on the ship of the leader. Can anyone be certain he wouldn't have come out in support of his friend John McCain if McCain were in the lead? Would someone else in Powell's identical position be viewed more cynically? If so, what is it about Powell that grants him permission to choose his loyalty at this late stage of the game?
* * *
P.S. The title of this post refers to McCain's state in almost every single minute of the final debate.

My name is Rebecca Alaniz and I am a 27 year old who wants nothing more than to just serve Jesus wherever He has called me. Since a young age, I've had a heart to serve on the missions field. I loved being able to share Jesus with people while getting to know their culture. After I graduated high school, I began working towards my bachelors degree from Cal State Fullerton. It was in those four years of college that the Lord showed me that He had a different calling than what I had planned for myself. After graduating from CSUF, I continued my education at Calvary Chapel Bible College. It was through one of the extension campuses that I was able to meet the ministry that I am now serving with.
Though I was not able to point to Croatia on a map, I jumped at the opportunity to be able to serve the Roma people. While on a short term missions trip to Croatia, I realized how much work there is to be done in the Roma community. I am currently working in the villages, with the children. We prepare Bible lessons, crafts and meals for the children. My goal is to make sure that every child in the village hears about Jesus and comes to recognize Him as their personal Lord and Savior. I am also teaching English to a group of youth from the villages. It is through the weekends that I spend with them, inside and outside of the classroom, that I have been given the privilege to reflect Christ's love to them. Though language is sometimes a barrier, there are a million of other ways of showing God's love to these kids. Croatia went from being a foreign place on a map to becoming my home.

email or text someone, I see it. It's mezmorizing to me and I think if I
had the time I could stare at it for hours. For me, it captures the
joy and blessing my children are to me. For them, it captures the joy
of childhood.
A couple weeks ago I got busted staring at this picture. My Shelter co-
leader said let me see those kids. She stared at it for awhile and
commented at how my kiddos looked so happy. I responded by saying
"this is what childhood should be." children should grow up in a
loving home. They should laugh, be care free and joyful. The women
that would be joining us in the room later that evening didn't get to
experience that as children. Sure there may have been moments but
nothing like what it should be or should have been.
There are so many of us out there who never got to experience what
should be. So many children right now, next door, or half way across
the world who aren't experiencing what should be. Neglected, abused,
poverty stricken, starved, forced into slavery, fatherless, orphaned,
forgotten and abandoned, they are out there and one may even be you.
Again I am struck by the question, how am I to respond? I am grieved
that their are so many children out there that aren't experiencing
what should be. I am grieved for myself and the countless numbers of
other adults who also didn't get to experience what should be.
I am also awed over a great God. A God so great that He took all the
what should NOT have been's and conquered them while nailed to a tree.
A God who heals the loss experienced by those who missed out on what
should been's. I am awed and thankful for a God who is sovereign over
all and can restore all.

In the shadow of Kobe, Shaq, Karl Malone, Gary Payton, Rick Fox and Derek Fisher, I'd forgotten about guys like Devean George and Kareen Rush. After finishing The Last Season I immediately googled George and Rush to see whatever became of them. This book was an intriguing flashback to the 2003-04 NBA season. I was completely captive by this L.A. story, and unaware that Phil Jackson and Kobe had such a tumultuous relationship. The Last Season is a must-read for NBA fans.

The show picks up seven years after the end of the original, with Michael Scofield locked in a Yemen prison, waiting for his brother Lincoln (Dominic Purcell) and true love Sara (Sarah Wayne Callies) to break him out. FOX has released plenty of teasers and posters for the new show, and there is little doubt fans will be treated to a few more in the coming weeks.
Now, a new promotional video for the show has been released, and uses interviews with Wentworth Miller to see how far Michael has come over the past 12 years.
The video is just over a minute and a half long and includes two interviews with Miller as well as footage from the early episodes of both the original show and the new sequel. The video also shows an early interview with Miller talking about his character …

As discussed in yesterday's blog, time is running short for the session – 9 legislative days left – and a sense of urgency of sorts is emerging as members in both the House and Senate prioritize efforts to pass legislation.
I'm hearing through the halls of the State House that the House Budget Committee may finally bring the House General Fund Budget to a committee vote tomorrow, positioning it for a full House vote on Tuesday of next week – note that's the 23rd legislative day....leaving just 7 days for the Senate to pass the budgets on to the Governor. I've encouraged leadership and members to move the budgets so that we can pass the budgets during this regular session. Some of my colleagues have already accepted that we will be unable to pass the budgets during the regular session and will need to go into a special session later this year to address the budgets.
I'm simply not ready to surrender to that notion.
The Senate will go into session at 10AM tomorrow.

Only overseas-based Springboks with more than 30 Test caps will be eligible for national selection after July 1, the national rugby organisation said Friday.
Currently, a South African national rugby coach can choose a player irrespective of how often he has been capped or where he is based.
The move is an attempt to halt the brain drain as South Africans are lured to Britain, France, Ireland and Japan by salaries many times higher than they earn locally.
The rule change comes into effect after a season-opening three-Test home series against France during June.
In Rugby World Cup years, however, any South African can be chosen, no matter where he is based.
Japan stages the next World Cup in 2019 with the group draw scheduled for May 10 in Kyoto.
"We are sending a message to young players that if they want to play for the Springboks they must remain in South Africa," said rugby boss Mark Alexander.
"The coach (can) select exceptional players who may be based overseas provided they have (more than) 30 Test caps for the Springboks.
"How to balance the need to select the strongest possible team against the challenges of having such a large number of players based overseas has been a subject of long debate.
"We have made this change in what we believe are the best interests of the Springbok team, but we will review it periodically in conjunction with the national coach."
Ulster loose forward Marcell Coetzee will hope to play against France in Pretoria, Durban and Johannesburg as he has 28 caps.
South Africa are following in the footsteps of Australia, who considered foreign-based players with at least 60 caps for the 2015 World Cup in England.
Record three-time world champions New Zealand choose only local stars.

The high cost of credit
By Laura Rodrigues, Senior Public Policy Advocate
Yesterday the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) announced that it'll be reviewing high-cost credit, such as payday loans and overdrafts. This is very welcome.
We regularly see families who struggle to get by on tight budgets and have to pay a premium to borrow money for essential living costs. The cost and design of these credit products can trap these families into cycles of repeat borrowing and lead to debts spiralling out of control.
Regulating the payday loan market
From 2014 the FCA undertook a range of measures aimed at curbing the worst excesses of the payday loan market, including the introduction of a price cap on the cost of these types of loans. Since then there's been a large contraction in the market and falling numbers of people getting into payday loan arrears. This suggests that fewer people are being offered credit that they cannot afford to repay.
Our own figures also reflect this trend, with significantly fewer people coming to the charity for help with payday loan problems: 23% of our clients had payday loan debts in 2013 compared to 16% so far in 2016. However, there are still issues with payday loans that the FCA needs to tackle. Our recent research found persistent problems with people accessing multiple loans, and poor treatment of customers in financial difficulties.
Other forms of high-cost credit: unarranged overdrafts
The FCA review on high-cost credit is also welcome as it acknowledges that overdrafts, specifically unarranged overdrafts, can be a form of high-cost credit. We recently found that our clients are facing average charges of £225 per year in unarranged overdraft fees, pushing them further into debt. This review provides an opportunity to examine what more can be done to prevent short-term borrowing options becoming long-term persistent debts.
The regulator has acknowledged the need for a price cap on payday loans and in the credit card market there are already caps on default charges. There's a clear need for the FCA to consider the case for limiting the amount banks can charge for accessing unarranged overdrafts as short-term borrowing, and tackle persistent overdraft debt.
Affordable credit alternatives also needed
There's a broader question for the FCA and for the Government to address alongside this review. Who do the most financially vulnerable turn to when they need to borrow money for essentials and emergencies? What happens when the boiler breaks down, or they need new school uniforms for their children?
The FCA's price cap on payday loans has rightly moved towards restricting access to this type of high-cost credit and only allowing it to those who can manage to repay. But this also leaves very few options for those unsuitable for these types of credit. The Government must look at how to better support the financially vulnerable through the provision of more affordable alternatives to high cost credit, including looking at international examples of no and low interest loan schemes.
A broad look at the continuing issues in the high cost credit market encompassing many different products is welcome. It's essential that measures must be taken to tackle the detriment consumers continue to face with payday loans, overdrafts, credit cards and other forms of higher cost short-term borrowing.

Sheep-Throwing Marsupial in the "Yo Frankie" Game
If you've ordered the DVD, you're probably already busy throwing sheep and beating up rats in a lovely virtual countryside.
You're now Frankie the sugar glider (an Australian marsupial with the Latin name petaurus breviceps), familiar to many from the "Big Buck Bunny" Blender video. In that animated short, Frankie and two of his playmates had angered poor Big Buck to no end.
After the Blender Institute released Big Buck to show what the Blender software was capable of, they followed it up with the 3-D "Yo Frankie" game that they produced using Crystal Space and the Blender Game Engine. The core team had met in Amsterdam and spent the next half year developing the platform-independent game, financed through advance orders. Other sponsors beside Blender Institute and the Crystal Space Team were also involved in the Amsterdam game-making.
The DVD, which is now available and costs about $43, comes in two variants, one with Crystal Space Engine (CSE) and one with Blender Game Engine (BGE). The content comes under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 licensing and the game was created exclusively using open source software. Best hurry to order the game now, or wait a bit longer to get it for free.
Meanwhile you can learn more about the game's background and logic from the Blender wiki. Also see the YouTube video and view the gallery of further "Yo Frankie" screenshots and wallpaper.
|Gallery (3 images)
Hardware specsBesides the info on the project web site that Yo Frankie is a "cross
platform game (at least Linux, Windows, OS X)", we got some additional info on the hardware specs: processor should be at least 1.5GHz,and 512MB RAM are neede. The crystalspace engine requires an openGL-2.0 graphics card, which is optional for the Blender Engine.
Sheep-Throwing Marsupial in the "Yo Frankie" GameHi,
What are the system requirements? I think that I would like to give this game a try.
I'm running openSuSE 11.0, H-P Presario V6000 Notebook, 2 GB RAM, and a soon to be replaced 160 GB HDD, with a 320GB one.
This game looks so cool, and I'm not a gamer!

Movie Review: "School for Scoundrels"
Starring Billy Bob Thornton, Jon Heder, Jacinda Barrett, Luis Guzman, David Cross, Horatio Sanz, Sarah Silverman and Michael Clarke Duncan
Directed by Todd Phillips
Official Web site
One of the trickier sub-genres to successfully pull off in movies is a black comedy, as it frequently is inhabited by some unlikable characters, or at least puts likable characters into unfortunate situations. Excellent examples of the genre include "A Fish Called Wanda," "Ruthless People" and of course, "Dr. Strangelove." There could certainly be some debate as to whether "School for Scoundrels" can actually qualify as a black comedy, as its PG-13 rating almost seems the movie is pulling punches, while also trying to uncomfortably mesh romance into the mix.
But however the film is officially classified, it's certainly less successful than it should be, taking into account its solid cast.
The film stars Jon Heder ("Napoleon Dynamite") as Roger, a guy suffering from serious self-confidence issues. First, he's a parking meter cop, who's the target of ridicule from his co-workers and has been rejected by several children in the Big Brothers program. Add in his problem with talking to his sweet and available Australian neighbor Amanda (Jacinda Barrett) along with his frequent panic attacks, and you've got a ripe candidate for a life overhaul.
Enter Dr. P (Billy Bob Thornton), a mysterious adult education teacher who has a radical confidence-boosting class that tears down its students before building them back up. Dr. P's class is both secretive and expensive ($5,000), which makes one wonder why people that have this kind of money readily available wouldn't just seek out counseling.
But that quibble aside, some of the early scenes with Dr. P interacting with his class show promise, allowing Thornton to show off his darkly funny comic timing that he's honed in movies such as "Bad Santa" and "The Bad News Bears." However, that does point out that maybe it's time for the versatile Thornton to start seeking out roles of a different ilk, lest he start being typecast. A trailer for his next film ("Mr. Woodcock") that ran before "School for Scoundrels" looks quite a bit like more of the same.
The film starts going a bit off the rails once a competition for the affections of Amanda begins between Roger and Dr. P, who seems to make it a habit of destroying the life of one of his students in each class. Evidently, it's his form of entertainment. Unfortunately, that entertainment doesn't really cross over to the audience, as the two engage in a contest of one-upmanship that produces few laughs.
Part of the problem is that Heder's comic range seems rather limited, making his rather sudden transformation into a more ruthless foil to Thornton's Dr. P a bit of a stretch. Thornton's comic skills are rather muted in the second half of the film, while skilled comics such as Sarah Silverman and David Cross are largely wasted – a bit of a surprise, seeing as how the film is co-written and directed by Todd Phillips ("Old School"). An uncredited appearance by Ben Stiller as a former student in the film's third act is a welcome sight, but by then, even he can't quite lift the comedy much beyond mediocrity.
"School for Scoundrels" seems to want to be a movie that contains both a mean streak and a heart, but ultimately is lacking a little in both departments.
Grade: C
(Rated PG-13 for language, crude and sexual content, and some violence.)
What's Next
Billy Bob Thornton - Starring with Seann William Scott and Susan Sarandon in "Mr. Woodcock," as a former high school gym class teacher who made life hell for his students. Now, he's set to marry the mother (Sarandon) of one of his former students (Scott). Set for release in January 2007.
Jon Heder - A thirtysomething slacker (Heder) who lives with his mom realizes his sweet set-up is threatened when she hears wedding bells with her self-help guru beau. The 2007 release also stars Diane Keaton and Jeff Daniels.

One-Day DNA Test Researched
Modorato-Rosta, Caroline, The Washington Times (Washington, DC)
An American University chemist has developed a new process to speed up DNA identification, a key to solving missing-in-action cases from Vietnam, determining the identities of plane crash victims, and proving guilt in criminal cases.
Professor James Girard is using laser technology to analyze multiple samples of DNA simultaneously. The process can identify a person in just a few minutes instead of the usual days or weeks.
"Our work is focused on doing more sophisticated and faster DNA typing. The military is very interested for cases of unidentified bodies," Mr. Girard said in an interview at his lab.
"Maybe the family of the killed soldier kept his electric razor in a carton. And maybe you can find skin samples on it. Or on the clothes in the closet. This fellow could even have written love letters and licked stamps, and we have saliva that we can use for DNA research," Mr. Girard said.
"The military doesn't want to have this problem again, so that's why we now have blood cards," he explained. Since 1993, all soldiers are required to give blood samples for DNA identification.
Mr. Girard is conducting his research at a university lab and at the world's premier DNA identification lab, the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology in Rockville.
Under a cooperative agreement between the institute and American University, he is using a $350,000 mass spectrometer that employs laser technology to analyze multiple samples of DNA simultaneously. …

Regardless, my YSA years have taught me ALOT and I wanted to share some of those things. So lets have a list - we all love lists, right? :P
#1 - People are more important than things
A few weeks ago in fast and testimony meeting my RS President actually said this and I realized how strongly I agreed with her and realized that my single years have helped me to really understand this. What brings us the most lasting happiness, helps us to learn and grow, and ultimately become more Christ-like is our interactions and how we treat other people. It isn't the activities we necessarily participate in (obviously activities we do can teach us things and activities we participate in can affect our ability to have the companionship of the spirit, etc.) but the interactions with people in those activities and as we try and decide how we will spend out time. And because everyone is different, every single person will push us and challenge us in different ways and can help us grow and become better.
#2 - Give people the benefit of the doubt
Elder Holland said it well - "Think the best of each other, especially of those you say you love. Assume the good and doubt the bad." This has been a struggle for me - I'm a very black and white person so when I could see it wasn't for Reason 'A' it was just natural to assume it HAD to be for Reason 'B'. A good friend has helped me to be able to focus on the good and to give people the benefit of the doubt especially those I care about. In any relationship if I look for the bad I will find it - ALWAYS. You can always find what you are looking for. So now I say to myself - what do I know about this person? What are some of the happy times and times that show me this person cares and wouldn't be doing anything purposefully to be hurtful in anyway. Helps me not to jump to Reason 'B', which can I tell you has made things alot better. Just a caveat though - I worked with domestic violence for over 3 years, so in saying "look for the good" that never means to discount or ignore abusive behavior.
#3 - Everyone has hidden hurts and struggles with something that seems to much to bear
This has been a big one for me to really learn and understand. It is amazing how really struggling yourself makes you more aware that even though you don't see it or ever even talk about it with someone that EVERYONE has those things they've experienced that have stretched, hurt, and been the cause of many tears just like I have. Makes me want to be more kind to others, but also more available to reach out to others. I've also realized some people are REALLY good and putting on a front that everything is perfect. I in no way criticize people that are able to do this - I say it because it was easy in the past to think that they had no problems and their life was easy. That is never the case - everyone has struggles and though their struggles may be something that comes easy to me, it doesn't mean it isn't a struggle to them.
#4 - When you hurt, don't be afraid to cry
Life isn't easy and sometimes it really hurts - I HATE to cry as much as anyone but I've realized how important crying is and that when I hurt it is a GOOD time to cry and helps me to feel better. And I've realized in general that I do value all the emotions that I'm able to experience even hurt and sadness because I've realized that if I hurt or am sad it means I've invested in someone or something and I think that is so important. Especially investing in people, which often is the source of alot of pain, is also one of the greatest sources of happiness. So don't be afraid to cry when life hurts!
#5 - The Lord never gives us more than we can bear
And last but not least I've learned this even though it has been a hard lesson. I pray to grow and become better - in fact this is something I pray for everyday. Sometimes I laugh at myself when I'm really struggling and think - "Why do I pray for that!?!" Life is SO hard. But I have learned so much in those times and years of struggle and everytime I've made it through with the Lord's help. I feel like I've been stretched and stretched and stretched until I'm going to break and have no more stretch but when the next pull comes, as I turn to the Lord and plead for His help, somehow there is just a little more stretch for that moment. And then when it is all done I can look back and see a different persepctive because of what I've experienced. Hilary Weeks did a song in her last album that sums this up perfectly -
So while I would love to be married and have wanted it for a long time, I know the Lord knows me perfectly and knows the experiences I need to become the best I can. And I wouldn't trade the things I've learned!

The Ainu and their ancestors Emishi were ruled by Japanese for roughly 1300 years.
The Tocharian and their descendants Uyghurs were ruled by Chinese and others Asians for 500 years.
The Japanese looked upon the Ainu as hairy barbarians who were primitive and uncivilized. The Chinese also looked the Tocharians as barbarians, nomadic, weak and primitive. Both of their territory are now part of China and Japan although for most of history they were not.
The Ainu look white or Caucasian. although many claim they look like white aborigines/Australoid. In fact genetics even claim they are more closer to Southeast Asian Mongoloid rather than to Caucasoid.
Their territories lived in Hokkaido, Northern Honshu, south Sakhalin, Kuril islands. They were conquered by Japanese from 700 AD to 2015 AD today. Some Japanese upper class are partial descendants of these people.
According to Dennis Johnson :Japanese settlers commonly took Ainu women as sexual slaves. And the upper class also took Ainu as concubine and wives. Many Samurai also took Ainu women as wives.
In 8th century, there was war between the Emishi ( Tohoku Ainu) and Japanese . The Emishi eventually lost to the Japanese and had all their northern lands conquered and incorporated into the Japanese state.
During the Muromachi period (1336–1573) Ainu rebelled against Japanese influence and control of the island but ended in failure.
During the Tokugawa period (1600–1868) the Japanese ruled the southern part of Ainu lands. Japanese introduced diseases making the Ainu population decrease from 80,000 to 16,000.
In 1868 - 2015, Hokkaido had been incorporated into Japanese lands.
Ainu population dropped significantly during these years of Matsumae and shogunate rule. In 1807, officials estimated the total population of Hokkaido Ainu at 26,256. Observations made by Matsuura Takeshiro, for example, illustrate concretely the dramatic decline of Ainu populations caused by epidemic diseases. 47 years later that number was reduced to 17,810, a 32% decline.[11]
The Ainu in the 14th century were much more populous before invasions from the Japanese. Some Ainu oral stories, and the Matsumae clan's documents, recall and record several severe battles between the Ainu people and the invaders. After losing several battles, the Ainu people were enslaved.[12]
Metropolitan magazine reported, "Many Ainu were forced to work, essentially as slaves, for Wajin (ethnic Japanese), resulting in the breakup of families and the introduction of smallpox, measles, cholera and tuberculosis into their community. In 1869, the new Meiji government renamed Ezo as Hokkaido and unilaterally incorporated it into Japan. It banned the Ainu language, took Ainu land away, and prohibited salmon fishing and deer hunting."[citation needed] They were regarded as 'extremely inferior races', as one Diet Member had expressed it in 1907 (Hokkaido Utari Kyokai 19902190).
The Tocharians were Indo-European Iranic people and their descendants was the Uyghurs who are a mixture of Turkic and Iranic. Their Caucasian genetic shows they are medium between European and Middle easterners.
They live in Xinjiang, Tarim Basin. Which is Central Asia bothering Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan and historically had nothing to do with China. In fact for China to get through there they must first pass through North Tibet ( now Qinghai ).
They were first conquered by Xiongnu, than by Chinese, than by Tibetan, than by other Asian empires. And finally by Turkic Asian Uyghurs who conquered them and assimilated their people with Turkic language.
"The Uyghur Empire was originally located in Mongolia and conquered the Tocharian tribes in Xinjiang. Tocharians such as Kroran have been shown by archaeological findings to appear phenotypically similar to northern Europeans, whereas the Orkhon Uyghur people were clearly Mongolians. The two groups of people subsequently mixed in Xinjiang to become one population, the present Uyghurs. "
The recorded history of the area now known as Xinjiang dates to the 2nd millennium BC. There have been many empires, primarily Han Chinese, Turkic, and Mongolic, that have ruled over the region, including the Yuezhi, Xiongnu, Han dynasty, Sixteen Kingdoms of the Jin dynasty (Former Liang, Former Qin, Later Liang, and Western Liáng), Tang dynasty, Uyghur Khaganate, Kara-Khanid Khanate, Qara Khitai, Mongol Empire, Yuan dynasty, Chagatai Khanate, Yarkent Khanate, Dzungar Khanate, and Qing dynasty. Xinjiang was previously known as "Xiyu" (西域), under the Han dynasty, which drove the Xiongnu empire out of the region in 60 BCE in an effort to secure the profitable Silk Road,[1] but was renamed Xinjiang (新疆, meaning "new frontier") when the region was reconquered by the Manchu-led Qing dynasty in 1759. Xinjiang is now a part of the People's Republic of China, having been so since its founding year of 1949.
In 1949, Mao Zedong invaded this region and incorporated into Chinese lands. It was also renamed.
Uyghurs with mostly Torcharian blood.

The voice of President Bush ranged clearly and loudly in the hall as he began his second State of the Union address. During the first month of every year since 1913, the President of the United States has presented his State of the Union message in the Capitol Building, stirring up millions of Americans from all over the United States.

Living in a foreign culture...
Had a major pie craving and after walking ALL around the block the only thing I could find open was the dingiest of pubs- yes that is something my country excels at! I am really quite sick of this country, the culture, its people...definitely need to get away so that when I come back I can appreciate it again. The longer I live here the more I notice things I don't like seem to be on the increase.
Sunday night is a black hole here... I'm looking forward to experiencing cultures where at night it's still happening and alive and not just with doof doof clubs and sleazy bars. Really, this country is very boring at night. I guess it's worse in New Zealand but hey at least they have spectacular nature and clean air everywhere and lots of sheep :)
I think I start to understand why all my my age and older friends left a looooong time ago and didn't come back! This city is too oversaturated in baby souls, bimbos and himbos, american culture and obnoxious extroverts. And not very conducive to that which isn't...I still love the natural geography we enjoy though...not many places can beat it!

That may be part of the reason why your friends left, but from my experience, that's just what friends do. At around age 15 BAM! They scatter to all four corners of the earth. Really sad.

I agree not many places can beat our natural geography Unfortunately I also agree about the night life and that the things I don't like seem to be on the increase. But there are also many beautiful souls out there.

ha! the quarter life crisis seems a distant memory. now it's knowing what you want but having to tolerate your rigid limitations until the seed is ripe. i think my experience is a little different cos this is my 2nd spin on the merry go round...and I've lived my life somewhat in reverse as well...old>young!!!
FG have you ever been to this city? I think you might hate it if you lived here...

You are in Sydney? I have'nt been there (except in transit). I was relating you comment to my Australian city also. With the possible exception of Melbourne I don't think any Australian city is known for its night life. Unless you enjoy getting blind drunk and fighting. I made a post sometime last year called City Streets (I think) describing a walk at night to the city train station.

I always heard that Sydney was such a cool place to hook around. I guess you have to find other spots on this planet now. Being awake at the middle of night in Manhattan now, I can't say it's an exciting night life besides me :) We're just looking for something we haven't found yet... (the Dr. Evil laugh is virtual)

Ask an Urology Question, Get an Answer ASAP!
Does this area hurt?
I can't tell by the photos. Is this area an ulcer or is it a blister?
Yes but it is too blurry to see
Does your girlfriend have any open sores like this on her genitals?
Ok. This could either be skin irritation from inflammation or it could be a sexually transmitted disease such as syphyllis. The only way to tell is to go get tested by your doctor. In the meantime, you can apply some hydrocortisone cream to the area to see if this will make any inflammation go away. Hope this helps.

Flowers and all that...:)
I walked past a florist recently. It was a beautiful shop, with amazing lighting, really pretty vases and just all the types of colourful flowers in the world! Okay, if you are wondering how i know...well, I stopped and stared! What am I suppose to do? It's flowers! I love flowers!
Anyway, my point is, how come as much as we love flowers we always end up sending them to people but not to ourselves? Before you start giving me that look, let me explain. I am always going on and on on how you should love yourselves and how much you should always admire who you are despite what people tell you and all. So, I thought of it and it did make sense. How bout go into a florist and get a bouquet of flowers and have it delivered to you? Maybe write a card too. And when the flowers arrive, won't you feel so happy? That smile on your lips or that little twinkle in your eyes..why would you want to depend on someone else to put it there? Do it yourself!
And that being said, I want to do it too. But I told my mum and she said that I was mad. She said that if I wanted flowers, I should go get the flowers. What's the point of going through the hassle of having them delivered and so on? But she did not understand that it was not just the flowers that I wanted. I wanted the thrill of having flowers delivered to me as the rest watched. I wanted the element of surprise. I wanted to feel special.
Anyway, everyone likes receiving flowers. Especially girls! So why don't you go pick up some flowers and have them delivered to someone special today? And people, in case you are wondering...hehehehe...my most favourite flowers are sunflowers! But anything would do! :P

Drive down from Port Orchard, Wa to Port Orford, Oregon - part 2
This was our first migration with the Toyota Highlander, so we weren't sure how things would go, but there were no issues towing the trailer.
We started out at Port Orchard and drove down I-5 to Portland. We had hoped to be able to stop at our favorite restaurant in Portland, but decided that it was not worth the time that stop would entail. Instead we stopped at a hamburger stand, which probably took as long anyway. Ug.
We continued down I-5 until we were about half way down Oregon, and took off west on a state road through the mountains that guard the coast.
The trip was uneventful. We stopped at Reedsport at the sugar shack in Reedsport and bought every muffin they had in the case.
We arrived at the house in Port Orford at 6PM and after we knocked our eyes out
with the view in the back yard, we began unloading the trailer.

It's a rare sunny December day here in northern Michigan, and I've just come from a lovely breakfast with friends and a pleasant walk home, yet I'm infused with a sense of dread. When my kids get home from school, I have promised my son, who celebrated his 10th birthday this week, an outing with friends to the movies. In our town, the only place to see a PG or G movie is at the mall. Ugh! Can anyone think of a better way to wreck a perfectly nice day than having to go to the mall in December? It's usually a place I take great pains to avoid, especially this time of year.
On a happier note, I think the Christmas stocking is shaping up nicely. Here's the latest photo:
The snowflake pattern came from "Homespun Handknit"; the rest is my own. I don't know yet who the lucky recipient will be. I don't even know why I'm bothering to knit something as useless as a Christmas stocking. Bah, humbug.
OK, I've been skipping around it, so maybe I should just address the issue of Christmas. I hear so many people complain about the stress of the holidays that I wonder why it is the way it is. After all, this is something people do to themselves. Nobody forces anybody else to spend the month baking cookies, throwing parties, decorating and shopping. While there are many useful resources, such as The Center for a New American Dream, to help overcome the commercialism that Christmas has become, I've discovered two simple steps that are most effective: 1) stay away from the mall and big box stores, and 2) turn off the television. Most of the annoying commercial messages come from those two sources. Shut them out and let the peace come in.
If you do feel an obligation to purchase gifts, try shopping at locally-owned businesses, the kind that tend to be located downtown, if your town still has a downtown. Not only will you be more likely to find original and quality items, the money you spend will continue to circulate in your community, improving your local economy. For more information on this topic, read The Benefits of Doing Business Locally and Why You Should Shop Locally, just a couple of articles to get you started.
Back to knitting. Here's a photo showing the current status of Shannon:
All that remains is knitting the front bands and collar. I haven't decided yet if I want to follow AS's directions on that, which would have me knitting them separately and actually sewing on the collar band, or just pick up the whole thing and knit it as one piece. Because it's a V-neck, the trick would be getting the angle right at the intersection of the V and the button band. I could just make increases there, but I wonder if it would look as nice as a seam.
Soon almost all of my current projects will be nearing completion and I haven't determined which of the many things on my to-do list I want to tackle next. I'm thinking of this one:
Now I must go. I have lots of important stuff to do, such as clean the litter box. Ciao!

When I first read the carryout menu at Cellars' Market, I expected to find a standard sandwich shop catering to office workers. A half-dozen salads were offered with twice as many options for dressings. Sandwiches were served both grilled and wrapped. Daily specials of home-cooked favorites such as gumbo, meatloaf and red beans and rice added some variety. After seeing the bar, however, I knew that I wanted to come back even before tasting the food. It looked like an inviting place to sip a glass of wine after work.
When I returned to Cellars' Market and headed to the back dining room, I felt like I had been transported to the Italian countryside. Wooden racks full of wine line the sides of the room. Classical music plays softly in the background. Against the far wall, a silver warehouse door has been pulled back to reveal an Italian village. A working fountain juts out from the mural. It was like a European vacation in the middle of the day.
The salads were fresh with well-chosen greens. Don't expect to be dazzled by a plate of exotic leaves and odd ingredients. Cellars' Market sticks to the classics, like Caesar and Cobb. The baby spinach salad, for example, was full of tomatoes, red onions, feta cheese, toasted pecans and red bell peppers. It was large enough for a meal.
In keeping with the Italian ambience, Cellars' Market serves paninis with Italian names. The Grilled Italiano was an excellent combination of Genoa salami, pepperoni, provolone cheese, roasted red peppers and balsamic vinaigrette. Even better was the vegetarian Milano with chunks of roasted eggplant, provolone, roasted red pepper and a pesto mayonnaise. When these sandwiches arrived, a friend immediately noted that our paninis were not on an long, flat panino. Instead they were served on slices of grilled bread that had been cut from a loaf. My friend dislikes panino bread and would have ordered one had she known. I prefer the long, crusty loaves and was disappointed to find less exotic slices of bread on the panini sandwiches.
Among the specialty sandwiches, the Tchoupitoulas club was a solid rendition of the classic double-decker; Cellars' Market adds a layer of sun-dried tomatoes for a unique twist. They even offer a muffuletta piled with extra thick layers of ham, mortadella and Genoa salami topped with a chunky olive salad. I would, however, avoid the French dip next time. There is too much good roast beef in New Orleans to settle for something that had the texture and taste of a pressed meat product.
The pleasant idling away the day often ended when I had to track down a server to order a dessert. Most of the time, it wasn't worth the effort. On the spumoni cheesecake, each neon-hued layer tasted like a different variety of artificial flavor. The gummy red gel atop another cheesecake could have been stolen from the filling of a cherry Pop-Tart. The dessert that was worth the effort, however, was the homemade chocolate cupcake with fluffy peaks of chocolate icing.
Getting the final bill also sometimes involved a search of the premises. The faux-courtyard and the possibility of a glass of wine might encourage people to linger. Most of the customers eating lunch at Cellars' Market, however, were dressed in suits and business attire. They may want to have a leisurely lunch, but that decision probably belongs to their boss. Cellars' Market should consider a better system for getting people back to work when their lunch hour ends.
Cellars' Market sits on a block of Tchoupitoulas Street that still doesn't get a lot of traffic. As more bars and restaurants open in the area, Cellars' Market's unusual mix of a full bar, sandwich shop and wine store will probably fill several needs for those who live or work in the Warehouse District. After 5 pm., you can share a few drinks at the bar or try a flight of wines at the tasting held every Friday. It is the only wine store in the area, and the selection of 200 wines and late hours make it a great place to buy a bottle so that you don't arrive at a party empty handed. The best feature of Cellars' Market, though, is that little backroom oasis that offers an escape from the heat on a hot New Orleans afternoon.
