creativemusician I don't know whether I'm relieved that he can't make more of a mess or if I'm angry that he's leaving everyone else to mop up his mess! I'm scraping by on incapacity benefit (I had glandular fever last year & am still not well enough to work), well aware that...

creativemusician I'm the opposite, I'm closer to my Mum than my Dad. I'm just so blessed that both my parents are still around. However, there's nobody quite like your Mum & I know that when her time comes I'll be devastated & I'll never really get over it. I have every...

creativemusician I can speak basic German when I think about it & sometimes find myself thinking in German when naming objects. As my parents are moving to Italy, I'm also learning Italian. And of course, there's English as my own language (obviously).

how soon can one recover from depression

leechamp @leechamp (186) • Philippines 8 May 07

my sister's family, her husband and an 18-yo son, recently had a tragic moment in their life, when a triggerman on a motorcycle, whose target for the killing apparently was her husband sitting on the front passenger side,...

creativemusician This is awful. It depends on the individual as to how long it can take to recover & children are more unpredictable as the recovery may seem impossible & then they suddenly turn a corner. It sounds like this young lad is going through an awful time. He's...

antidepressents and memory

desertdawn @desertdawn (13) • United States 8 May 07

I've been taking antidepressents for many years. I probably will all my life and I'm OK with that. I'd much rather feel good (not be depressed or anxious) than have a sharp memory. Please don't misunderstand me. Is this real...

creativemusician I don't really know. You have different names for drugs to uslot in the Uk, but I do know some can have this effect. You don't have to tell people anything about the drugs. You could just make a joke of having a rubbish memory or something if you wanted. It's...

whenever you feel down and out and alone, what's normally the best thing that you should do? this has a lot to do with depression which leads to suicide. meditation is one of the self therapies that can work. some just knock...

creativemusician I think it depends on the individual, the causes of the depression & the severity of it. The most important thing is that the person gets help to deal with it & doesn't try to cope alone. It's the people who try to deal with it on their own who are most at...

You're all committing plagiarism!

ZaffireWolf @ZaffireWolf (480) • United States 7 May 07

You're all doing it! Even I'm doing it! We're all committing plagiarism! What are we plagiarising in our speech and writing? The English dictionary! That's right, you're using words that were written from the English dictionary!...

creativemusician Have you nothing better to do with your time? Are you short of ideas for writing projects? Have you a serious case of writer's block? Or are you just trying to be funny? Plagiarism is theft of an idea, not of words that mean nothing on their own. Honestly,...

creativemusician This is a common issue, though I wouldn't call it a problem. Write them down, so you can focus on you're current porject. I find that if I don't write them down, they buzz round in my head & I can't focus on what I'm trying to do. You can always come back to...

Do I have an outdated version of the Bible?

judyt00 @judyt00 (3497) • Canada 7 May 07

Inspite of what I read constantly on here, in my Bible I can't find the words Trinity or Rapture. And what bothers me most, nowhere in my Bible does it say that the snake that deceived Eve, was actually Satan. Has there...

creativemusician You don't say which version you have of the Bible. There are different "versions" that use different periods of English. So the "New King James Version" uses very traditional English, where as the "New Living Translation" uses more modern English. However,...

creativemusician There's not much else I can say about this as you other Christians out there have done a good job. However, it's not always easy when God says no or makes you wait. I've had money problems since I was a kid & now I'm an adult my money troubles aren't my...

creativemusician You need to talk to someone. If you find it difficult talking face to face, about your problems try telling someone over the phone. If you'd rather tell a stranger first, you can call the samaritans (in UK) or the equivalent in your country. There could be...

creativemusician I'm shocked. You talk about kindergarten, so I'm thinking you're not in England. I can't believe they didn't ask his version of events or investigate how the knife came to be there in the first place. To right he should never have been suspended. I would have...
