What are the four types of ladies?
Budda says there are four different types of women:
- Those who become angry for slight causes, who have changeable minds, who are greedy, jealous of other's happiness, and who have no sympathy for the needs of others.
- Those who grow angry over ordinary affairs, who are fickle and greedy, but who do not envy others their happiness and who are sympathetic for the needs of others.
- Those who are more broad-minded and who do not become angry very often, and who know how to control a greedy mind, but who are not able to avoid feelings of jealousy and who are not sympathetic.
- Those who are broad-minded, who can restrain feelings of greed and retain a calm mind, who do not envy others their happiness, and who are sympathetic for the needs of others.

What are the major differences between how a behaviorist and how a humanist would motivate someone?
Well, a humanist (one prescribing to the theory that people are fundamentally good) relies on an individuals sense of propriety to guide them into appropriate behavior. So a humanist will appeal to a person's inner calling to "do good" for motivation.
A behaviorist will set up a system of payoffs in order to incentivize one into changing their behavior.
Why do girls call themselves fat or ugly?

How does a narcissist get diagnosed with narcissist personality disorder?
Only a licensed psychiatrist can diagnose an individual with Narcissist Personality Disorder, or NPD. Individuals with NPD rarely seek psychiatric help (that's part of the disorder: "I'm OK and you're crazy, why should I seek help?") so usually it's a spouse or family member that exposes the behavior. Individuals suspected of having NPD must have a certain number of traits or characteristics common to the disorder. Recognizing these traits is what a psychiatrist is trained to do. An individual can have multiple symptoms of NPD and still not get a diagnosis of NPD.
Why would a teen girl shave her head?
In a society that places high value on the appearance our hair it seems like an odd thing to do doesn't it? It could be she is just expressing herself though. Hair grows back, so unless there are other symptoms of something else going on with her, she probably just wanted to shave her head. Shaved heads feel nice and cool, and if society was not so appearance centric I imagine many more females would shave their heads, especially if they knew how wonderful it feels.
Why do some fat woman have low self esteem?
BECAUSE THEY'RE INSENCURE! AND mostly Jealous of YOU! And if your a boy, they have a crush on you-most likely.:) Just give them a compliment and see how they sorta change...
There is no specific word for that specific form of bragging. "Uxurious" can refer to a man excessively devoted to his wife.
"Braggart" is the general term for a man boasting of his own accomplishments.
Often times any person who excessively speaks of their children or grandchildren - for any reason - is called a "bore", as others usually do not care one way or another.

What foods raise serotonin levels?
1 Food sources that help with serotonin production - foods high in B-vitamins (brown rice, chicken, corn ,eggs, green leafs, legumes, meat, nuts, peas, sunflower seeds, nutritional yeast), Calcium (almonds, brewer's yeast, green leafs and cruciferous vegetables, fish with bones, sesame seeds, tofu), Magnesium (green leafs, brown rice, sesame seeds, shrimp, salmon) and Tryptophan (turkey, soy foods, peanuts, almonds).
2 Essential fatty acids necessary for serotonin production are the omega 3's (fish oils found in mackerel, salmon, sardine, tuna; walnut oil, flax oil) and 6's (canola oil, chicken, eggs, flax, grape seed oil, safflower oil, sunflower oil, turkey, wheat germ oil) as well as Gamma-Linolenic Acid (black current oil, bluegreen algae, borage oil, evening primrose oil). I've also read that most people have an excess of omega 6's and need to decrease the amount of 6's in their diet in order for the 3's to function well. I guess most of us are lacking in 3's.
3 Long-term stress depletes serotonin levels. Short term stress actually increases serotonin, but after time you get burn-out and it becomes increasingly difficult for the body to produce serotonin. So reduce stress--this can be as simple as adding exercise and meditation to the daily routine or as life changing as choosing to leave a really stressful job.
4-Avoid stimulants because they deplete serotonin over time--this works the same was stress does. We're talking things like caffeine, refined carbohydrates, chocolate, sugar as well as the heavier stimulants like cold remedies, alcohol, street drugs, diet pills and tobacco.

Neurotransmitters Serotonin
Serotonin is similar to catecholamines. It is made from the amino acid, tryptophan. Serotonin is converted to melatonin in the pineal gland. Tryptophan, derived from food, is transported to the brain to make the neurotransmitter serotonin. At the appropriate place inside a brain cell, two enzymes and vitamin B6 transform tryptophan to serotonin. Serotonin is then transferred to the sending end of the neuron (the terminal bouton of the axon), where it is used as a molecular messenger to carry information across the synapse to the receiving neuron. ...
Serotonin production is sensitive to the supply of tryptophan in the diet. The effects of serotonin were first observed in the digestive tract where it causes contractions of the smooth muscle. Serotonin is released from blood platelets and elevates blood pressure. Serotonin circuits arise from the brain stem arousal complex and reach into all areas of the brain. Increased serotonin circuit activity tends to activate abnormal behaviors. Too little serotonin is associated with sleep disturbances, loss of appetite and depression. Some antidepressant drugs increase serotonin activity and these drugs tend to decrease appetite.
Serotonin itself isn't in food. It's a neurotransmitter released into the synapse and bloodstream. However, certain foods cause serotonin to be released like candy, cereal and pasta. Anything with plenty of carbohydrates will increase serotonin levels. However, the effects won't last long, maybe only 2-3 hours.

How can a 17 year old girl get bigger breasts when it's only an A cup or less?
There are many factors that influence growth of breasts. These include nutrition and genetics, both because of hormone stimulation. Breast growth is one of the important things that happens during puberty. The pubertal hormones produced by the pituitary gland (located in the brain and responsible for producing a variety of hormones), play a critical role. One of the earliest signs that puberty has begun is enlargement of the breasts as a result of increased production of ovarian estrogen stimulated by these pituitary hormones. Boys also often experience breast enlargement during the early stages of their pubertal growth spurt, but their breasts usually shrink in size after one or two years. As long as estrogen continues to be secreted in females, breasts will grow and/or maintain their size. Breasts may also enlarge slightly in women taking birth control pills or, after menopause, estrogen-replacement pills. Naturally, breasts enlarge during pregnancy as a result of marked increase in estrogen secretion. Girls with poor diets and weight loss may notice that their breasts get smaller. If these girls improved their nutrition, their breasts would enlarge to their previous size. Push up or padded bras make them "look" bigger, but that is deceitful. The poor guy is going to be disappointed when he finds out they are smaller than he thought they would be.
This may be worthwhile. You can enlarge the muscles under the breast tissue that may give the appearance of a slightly larger bustline and help to keep them from sagging. Any exercise for the pectoral muscles will do. Pectoral muscles are muscles that support the breasts so if you do them your breasts will get a somewhat lifted appearance. Other chest exercises will help to create a little more rounded look. The breast themselves, however, will NOT increase in size no matter what exercise you do. Put on weight although it's not good for your health. If you gain weight your boobs will get bigger but I don't recommend it as they will become saggy and fat and the fat will also go into other places and make your whole body bigger I heard if you massage them then they will be bigger because it relaxes the muscle or if you put your hands in a prayer position with your elbows out and push your hands together.
Hang in there. You may not get large breasts simply because it isn't in your genes. Look at other family members like mom, grandma, aunts. Don't be fooled into taking any pill or using any creams, they don't work. If you are 21 and still unsatisfied, you could consider a breast augmentation.

What is the difference between narcissistic personality disorder and self-centeredness?
Apparently there is but be very careful because it is often stated that even the experts have trouble telling the difference between these two definitions and even between narcissism and narcissistic tendencies and the prognosis is different for each. My husband had NPD and everyone said that he couldn't get better but he did. After that there were those who said OH he really just had tendencies! I think that it is dangerous to try and diagnose someone as incurable when it is not so clear cut. My husband and I have the best marriage ever now.

There are three things you can do.
1) Drugs have been known to supress anxiety but this only lasts a little while, and eventually the drug becomes useless...this includes all prescription or natural remedies.
2) Many will sell other methods like subliminal messages hypnosis psycaitric help. They are of very little help. Dont waste your time.
3) Experience. This cures Anxiety. Anxiety will keep growing if you keep giving in to it. Except if you fight nervousness and face all problems, challanges, and situations head on. After 1 year you will become the type of person who is simply immune to anxiety....Take it from someone who has tried everything and realized the truth

You can start to feel better about yourself, by looking at yourself in detail. You will start to feel better as you work on improving yourself internally, externally, and within your environment. One thing you can do is a SWOT analysis on yourself. Make a list of all your Strengths, and do not be afraid to toot your horn. All of us have strengths. Then list all of your Weaknesses, and we all have weaknesses, Next, list all the Opportunities that are there for you. All of us have opportunities. Maybe the opportunity for furthering your education, work on to physical strength (body), health, appearance, confidence etc. Lastly, list all of your Threats; things that you feel might interfere with you accomplishing your goals and objectives. The objective is to maximize your strengths and opportunities, while minimizing your weaknesses and threats. This is not a spontaneous event, but one that occurs over time and you must be patient and persistent. As you start working on yourself, you will notice a change over time; the way you feel about yourself and your environment. Is it easy? No. Will it occur? Yes! Still, if you do not take steps (however small), nothing will happen, and you will be saying the same thing about yourself months from now. Acquire a vision for yourself; a clearly articulated picture of the future you intend to create for yourself, and the benefit it will bring to others as well as yourself. It's a dream! However, if you do not develop a road-map for yourself (like developing a SWOT analysis for one), it will never become a reality for you. Keep the vision in front of you at all times, be committed and dedicated, persevere even in the mist of some set-backs, and do not get discouraged. As time goes by you will see yourself in a much more positive way, and in addition, others will also.

What can I do to boost my self steem?
you can look in the mirror everyday and pick out the things that you like about yourself. You can pick out the things that are unique about yourself, and make it beautiful, work what you have. I have low self of steem, and will always deal with it, but when im feeling down, i look in the mirror and find things that i kinda like about myself and if i see something that i don't like, i look at it in a different way, and relize it is beautiful. You gotta relize.."I could have it worse". you could have been born with out a face.Be happy that God made you beautfiul. If you are being told your ugly,get a makeover till you are happy with yourself, if your still not feeling beautiful.Because if you feel beautiful your self of steem rises.
