Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1213086Psychiatrists DO NOT produce these kinds of results. In the study, more than 60 percent of subjects described the effects of psilocybin in ways that met criteria for a “full mystical experience” as measured by established psychological scales. One third said the experience was the single most spiritually significant of their lifetimes; and more than two-thirds rated it among their five most meaningful and spiritually significant.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1194135 United States 12/31/2010 08:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've got way more than a million, and I do understand the OP to a degree. I've got really good friends, but no lover. For some reason, all the girls want to "just be friends" - regardless of money. I've no reason to give money away randomly - but I can and do help people out in many other ways. Life's not very satisfying without a girl living with me. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1165715I wonder if this is what the OP means. I know people just like you and OP - their money is who they are, their identity - it is most obnoxious. Money has nothing to do with it. I was dirt poor and rich several times - now I have money, it's invested, and I live frugally like I've always done. It's nothing to do with identity, other than I've got a few more choices. Regarding girl vs "real woman" - it makes no difference. Both "types" want to be "just friends". |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 773494 United States 12/31/2010 09:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What is it that is really making you sad? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12130861) You never know if people like you for your money or yourself. 2) I feel sad because there's too much people in dire needs of help and I don't have enough. 3) I feel sad because all those sheeple dumbfucks are happy when they don't realize that the system fucked em up real good, them and their parents/friends/kids. I'm sad for them. 4) I also know that people claim they love me, but I can't tell for sure if it's real, I can't ``feel`` it... 5) Maybe there's something wrong with me... Wealthy people tend to wall themselves off from the rest of society (figuratively and literally). 1) Why are you allowing everyone to know you have money? I don't let anyone know about my finances except to some degree the kids. We don't drive status cars. We live in a nice house and a nice neighborhood, but not a status house in a status neighborhood. I know I spend a lot less on clothes than most people I know who have much less money than we have. It's nobody's business what your net worth is except your own. Don't go around flaunting it or you probably won't have a lot of friends. 2) There are people in dire need now, have always been, and will always be. Pick out a couple of causes you feel deeply about and do what you can. We go with environmental (endangered species) causes. I also work with disadvantaged kids. You have to understand you can't help everyone. Plus, a lot of those in need will always be in need no matter how much you give to them because they have never learned the skills necessary to take care of themselves adequately. 3) What's wrong with being happy? It doesn't mean you are dumb or are unaware of what's going on in this world. It's better than being depressed your whole life. 4) Well, you cannot make people love you. They either do or they don't and it's not worth worrying about. Be friendly, respectful, helpful, and don't worry about whether people love you or not...it just doesn't matter. If you are a good person, that's all that counts. Also, you talk about others loving you...you don't talk about loving others. Have you put enough effort into your own self so that you are capable of love? While it's your life, don't be so self-centered. You would worry less about what people thought of you if you really knew how little they actually do think about you. 5) Get evaluated for depression. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 1211791 United States 12/31/2010 09:00 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OP you just need real friends, you know the kind that would hang out at a beach with you, talk and drink a bottle of wine. Real people and yes Canadians do seem to target people if they think they have $$$ or will benefit. You are not alone, I can see it would be depressing and not feel real. Thing is not everyone is like that, yes it takes time to find the right ones that give back in ways that are appreciated...but you can find some. I know some and some of them have felt the same way you do...it is a matter of testing peoples intentions, which is tiring. There are good people out there that would never ask or use you, believe me, that statement is so true. |

Nope, you need somebody who is really more mature emotionally and knows what she wants out of her life. |

Don't worry about saving the world OP, when the world needs a hero most people will figure out their own problems and save themselves because they have to. Love is a chemical imbalance. OP pick the people you like and surround yourself with them whether they are moochers or not, at least you won't be alone. Take some time to feed some wildlife, like birds OP. They don't give a rats how much money you have. |

Don't take the pills they offer. God never promised days without tears or pain...only that you will never be alone. He is with you.

But why not use your money to upgrade my account? You see, a little thing like that would make me very happy. If you can make me happy, You will be happy. Take some money and go to some homeless shelters. Pass some of it around and when they smile at you and thank you, you will be happy. Do a little gesture every day, don't break the bank, but just little things that people will give you their blessings for. Good luck SPEAK UP. SILENCE IS DEADLY!

But you will never meet them by flaunting your wealth as this only proves how misguided you really are. Some had suggested giving your money away but I disagree just put it aside for awhile.You will find many wonderful uses for it once you find yourself and those you want to spend your life with.You have been given an opportunity do not blow it before you get started. |
