What can lower someone's self-esteem?
From experience I know that there is ALOT that lowers a person's self esteem. It can be silly little things like looking at yourself in a mirror and thinking you're 'ugly', or your 'fat'. To big things like someone telling you you're 'useless' and 'A waste of space'. The best thing for it is to ignore these things and be happy with the way you are.
Listening to something calm, soothing, and forgetting about the problems of your world relieves stress. Just think soft tones going through your ears, and you can immerse yourself into your own world. You can even use Hard Metal, to let all your anger out, so you can forget about the problem you are dealing with. Do this as long as you want, until you feel better.
Hope this helps. You also need to try it sometimes, see if it works for yourself.(:

I think he has panic disorder when he is getting ready to take on Voldemort. He probablly takes pills for when he is ready to battle but takes midol for when he is done battling and says "I gotta let loose." which means you know. but no he doesn't have traumatic stress disorder. his friend Ron does whenever he gets a chill for when he sees Hermoine. He is thinking "oh i get to see my baby tonight. but oh that's right i can't because she is busy studying the art of relaxation with Harry .

If you are gay is that normal or is it mentally sick?
- Being gay is perfectly normal. Some people think gay people are sick, but they're not -- they just have a different perspective of looking at some things. For example: I love pizza, you might hate it; we're both normal, aren't we?
- Up to 1973 the Diagnostics and Statistical Manual, the handbook of mental health professionals, listed homosexuality as a mental disorder. It was replaced by a different definition when the DSM-iii came into use, and then dropped altogether in 1987. So, to answer if it is "mentally sick," the answer, according to the American Psychological Association, is "no."
To answer if it is normal, of course, begs the question of "what is normal." According to Kinsey's studies, 10% of the subjects in his studies were more or less completely homosexual from their teens. One out of 10 certainly sounds "normal."
To be fair... "10% of the people in his study" is slightly deceiving since 100% of the people in the study WERE GAY. It is generally accepted about 1% of the population in the U.S. is gay. 1 out of 100, not 1 out of 10.
The Kinsey study of the sexual habits of the American male was done in the 1940's and involved interviews with several thousand men who were willing to talk to the interviewer. Kinsey reported that roughly 30% of the respondents had experienced homosexual intercourse to orgasm at least once in their lives. Current research suggests that somewhere between 2 and 4 per cent of males are primarily homosexual, and perhaps 10 per cent have had significant homosexual experience.
It is normal to be Gay, Hetero or Bi, anything else would be abnormal !
Due to something that's happened in their lives, people have homosexual attractions and that's not sick. If acted on or embraced, it's like any addiction. You should believe this if you're a Christian.
Technically being gay is unnatural due to mammals (and other animals) need a male and female to reproduce. Think about it is everyone was gay we would all die within a generation because no children would be produced. Being gay is also in your genetics one of the things about being gay is maybe the point is so that you don't reproduce but one of the only ways to do that would be that you are attracted to someone whom you cant reproduce with. So technically speaking being gay is wrong and unnatural, but some people don't think so. But just because being gay is wrong it doesn't mean that you should be discriminatory towards them. Closing comments, if mammals birds and fish, reptiles (well maybe some fish and reptiles do) could reproduce asexually being gay would be fine.

Task 5 Impact of ICT assessment objective 5 A) Describe the impact that ICT has had on business practices. In particular, you should discuss: · Changes in places of work · Changes in working hours · Changes in skills required · The stress that using ICT can cause. Changes in places of work: Things that used to be seen as being important in the work place and the relationships between staff at different levels are changing as the economy changes. In part this is due to the change in the structure of employment - the reduction in the proportion of workers in primary and secondary sectors and the increasing importance of the tertiary sector. Particularly important is the growth in information driven businesses. For many people the world of work will not be like that. Working practices are changing. Changes in working hours: Union leaders are urging the government to rethink planned changes to working hours regulations, as a report shows UK employees are the most overworked in Europe. The Trades Union Congress (TUC) is asking ministers to call talks between employers and unions to reach agreement on difficulties which have emerged in the Working Time Directive which came into force last year. Changes in skills required: The stress that using ICT can cause:
Is it possible to have any level of intimacy with a narcissist?
I think the key here is "apparent" intimacy. The N I've dealt with is extremely good at making you THINK he's being intimate....actually he turns it on and off at (and for) his pleasure. He goes in and out of being highly somatic and needing a sex partner, and when he's needy, he offers intimations of intimacy that are very appealing. He's capable of producing a certain boyish charm that is very hard to resist. It's so easy to think, "Oh, wow, this time he's different." Not so....he'll go back to being obviously selfish almost instantly once he's got whatever he sought. The selfishness, ego, and yes, callous cruelty, of these people is hard for a decent person to even grasp. Dealing with an N is an exercise in observing a highly skilled adult-size person who has the moral values of a spoiled two-year-old. Nothing worthwhile exists for them unless it provides their own goal of personal satisfaction--whatever that may be at the moment. They are the ultimate users.
AnswerI totally agree with Georgette, the contributer above. "Apparent" intimacy is truly the key here. A month ago my N paid me a visit, and, oh, she was sooo sweet and so nice. Before I knew it we were back in bed for two nights. It was great!! She was so romantic - candles, soft music, taking a stroll down memory lane with all the great times we had together, and all the promises she had for the future. Three days later she emailed me saying the intimacy deal was off, and she hoped I wasn't upset and could we still make that trip we had planned together? She truly is quite a character. I emailed her back saying I had absolutely no idea of what she was talking about and did she mistake me for someone else? This turned her all friendly, friendly again. Amazing. To go back three years: We planned on getting married. I bought us a house, she moved in, became pregnant with our child one month before the wedding, and then ten days before the ceremony she called it off. The next day it was on again, we had the ceremony in a "Chapel in the Pines" (without the support of a marriage license - my last minute thought) we had a great honeymoon, came home, and then she decided she wanted to live alone. I never lived a day in the house I bought. Six years before that: I took her to Hawaii. We had a fabulous time. On our last day in the islands on the drive to the airport she broke up with me. Okey Dokey. Do you see the pattern: "Apparent intimacy", then take what you can get. Yes, she is a spoiled two-year-old. Her father says she lives in just one dimension - her own. He has asked me why I have ever put up with her and I say: Because if I didn't that would spoil all the fun, and second she has given me the most precious gift anyone could possibly receive - a son. I must put a disclaimer in here: Do not try this on your own, you results will vary!!!! This is definitely what you would call playing with fire and if you don't stay one step ahead of your "N" YOU ARE TOAST and you will live a miserable wretched existence. If you are in a "relationship" with a "N" I strongly advise that you run as fast as you can and don't ever look back. Answer #3:Answerer #2 appears to be a closet narcissist himself.Rather the closet narcissist is gratified by the re-enactment of past abusive relationships. In the narcissist, he feels that he has found a lost parent. he seeks to re-create old unresolved conflicts through the agency of the narcissist. There is a latent hope that this time, he will get it "right", that thisemotional liaison or interaction will not end in bitter disappointment and lasting agony.
Yet, by choosing a narcissist for his partner, he ensures an identical outcome time and again. Why should one choose to repeatedly fail in his relationships is an intriguing question. Partly, it has to do with the comfort of familiarity. The closet narcissist is used - since childhood - to failing relationships. It seems that he prefers predictability to emotional gratification and to personal development. There are also strong elements of self-punishment and self-destruction added to the combustible mix that is the dyad closet narcissist.
not to mention how he appears hypomanic when thinking and interacting with the narcissist, (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypomania )which is a serious issue aggravated by the interaction with a narcissist. he never learned how to extricate himself from his attraction to the needy narcissist.
People with Personality Disorders (PDs) are very afraid of real, mature, intimacy. Intimacy is formed not only within a couple, but also in a workplace, in a neighborhood, with friends, while collaborating on a project. Intimacy is another word for emotional involvement, which is the result of interactions with others in constant and predictable (safe) propinquity.
Patients with personality disorders interpret intimacy as codependence, emotional strangulation, the snuffing of freedom, a kind of death in installments. They are terrorized by it. To avoid it, their self-destructive and self-defeating acts are intended to dismantle the very foundation of a successful relationship, a career, a project, or a friendship. Narcissists feel elated and relieved after they unshackle these "chains". They feel they broke through a siege, that they are liberated, free at last. By withholding love, intimacy, and the fulfillment of other people's desires and needs, the narcissist torments them even as he obstructs his own gratification.
a narcissist's inability to give and take intimacy is not the partner's responsibility. The patient with a personality disorder is vulnerable to and prone to suffer from a host of other psychiatric problems. It is as though his psychological immunological system is disabled by the personality disorder and he falls prey to other variants of mental illness. So much energy is consumed by the disorder and by its corollaries (example: by obsessions-compulsions), that the patient is rendered defenseless.
Narcissists are simply indifferent, callous and careless in their conduct and in their treatment of others. Their abusive conduct is off-handed and absent-minded, not calculated and premeditated.
