How can you get over people's opinions of you?
If you are a moral, ethical person that is good to others then you have nothing to worry about. If what they are saying has no merit then you just take for what its worth. Crap. If what they are saying is true and it bothers you then do something about it. If what they say isn't true, you take a stand and protect your name and reputation, that is if its worth your time and energy. Petty people are everywhere and I have found that when people say things about you that arent true, they are intimidated by you and find you a threat to their own insecurities and it makes them feel better by putting others down. You can call them on it or rise above it, the truth does always come out and what come around goes around, it may take a little time. You will be and come out being the better person by letting them make fools of themselves.
Why do people yell when angry?
People yell when they are angry for much the same reason that dogs bark. The loud voice is a threat. It says, I am angry, and I may become violent, so you had better listen to what I am saying. Loud voices also have the advantage of drowning out quieter voices. Angry people do not want to listen to what other people have to say, they just want to be heard, and preferably obeyed.

Can I get an Illinois f.o.i.d. card after a mental health issue?
You can, depending on what the mental health issue was. The recent legislation that went into effect June 2008 states that hospitals and mental health treatment centers only have to report people who pose a threat to themselves or others in the community, not everyone like previously. If you were suicidal/homicidal at the time of the mental health treatment, you have to wait 5 years before you can get a FOID card. Hope this helps! -TaraI don't know where you're getting your information. The legislation that passed (Public Act 095-0564) does not state that mental health treatment centers only have to report people who pose a threat to themselves, others or the community. All mental health facilities are REQUIRED to enter the names of all persons admitted into the FOID reporting system, that DID NOT CHANGE!!. What changed is that now ALL public and private hospitals are required to report the name of any patient they deem a threat to themselves, the community etc.To the original poster, if you are truthful on your application and denied, you can appeal the decision to the director of the ISP, and the case will be heard by an administrative law judge. Be prepared to bring in your your medical records and if there's any self destructive behavior documented or if it's documented you could be a threat to others, then you're on the waiting list for 5 years.

Why do people always think that others are u-g-l-y when they are so sweet and great?
Different people see things differently. They like things that are like themselves. People judge others by what they see on the outside and never look into what the other person is really about. Some people see others that are different then they are as a threat. Then there are bullies. A bully does not have to be someone that physically abuses you, they can inflict pain with words. Bullies usually hang in a pack, crowd or gang. They only feel safe when they are with others like them and anyone who is not like them they deem as "ugly" or bad or stupid. By making someone else feel bad, they think that others will think higher of them.
