Well Manpe, that is because it is a tautological question. They are impossible to answer, just like the question: what is more northern than the North Pole? It is so difficult to anwer because being 'normal' is a normative, subjective question. We define being normal by the populations 'norm' and those people don't commit suicide. So .... No but people who do can still be at the outer edges of the 'normal' Gauss curve. Also, when they do commit suicide - even being normal, the act in itself would make them abnormal in the normative sense. Do yo feel the dilemma coming? Once you start to think about it, you cannot get out of it. Got another one I used to use in class: Can an omnipotent (all powerfull) God create a stone he cannot lift. Enjoy getting out of that one :-)

Lol! They did the same to 2 girls to simulate the pain of being kicked in the balls. Apparantly it was a tie with the labour pain lasting a lot longer :-)

He is belgiums 1 actually. He stands out too much. I don't see Mignolet ever takng his place again. The reason he wasn't number 1 before is because didnt want to burn a young talent in tis crucial campagne just yet. He is there now - beyond a doubt!!

Edit : bad joke.

Exactly .... so you can stop trying. @Amels please take over, man .... she's too much of a woman for me...

Also, I have only one last thing to say to you ....

and ...... BOOM!

I am in TOP SHAPE

@whatthemata You are like that goat in a Taylor Swift song ..... so disturbing yet funny!

It is all because of you, my dear.

Uh oh ... knight in shining armor to the rescue!

They would call it the Belgian Anaconda in the highlands!

allrightie ... the pub is up and running again :-)

Ai! Problem is I could never wear a kilt. Everyone would constantly pop from under there

Ow comon .... just turn the volume down a bit of that video. They will NEVER notice it :-) ps: do update!

Shite .... I took that as a compliment!

@rmpr : better?

Nope - I am rehabilitating, mate!

Or endorphines, oxytocin and dopamin Well, we call that love of course

Everyone has those moments in which you read something from before it seems completely alien. I have that as well. Also, those mood swings: everyone has them. It is th intensity in which you have them that count. If it makes YOU FEEL like you cannot handle it anymore, like it is taking over your life and prevents you from functioning in a semi-normal way .... that's the cue to get help. Trust me - people with a full blown problem do NOT sound like you - even on a forum. On a personal note: I had very traumatic experiences as a kid. It isn't until I had a steady partner that everything started to pan out for me. Some people - like me - need the stability of a (mature!!) relationship to move on - to heal. This sounds soft - but its true. Also , having children brings a lot of that old shit back .... Pm me when you feel shite. Let's see how you sound then, ok mate?

True ... Also, you seem quite ok. Don't fall into the trap over over-interpreting a possible disease. Many do in this (over)medicalised world. You wouldn't call me sane now, would you .... Still, I am eccentric and a bit hyper, but fine. Then again, I cannot see how you feel sometimes - thats the problem in diagnosis.

Don' be ... those guys know my (lack of) sense of humoiur all too well. They put it in the right context immediately :-)

That sounds like a chemical imbalance to me ... Question is if it is exogenous or endogenous. Exogenous: triggered by something external (eg.alcohol, weed, emotional events, ...) Endogenous: genes Now .... don't take my word for this and find a true specialist Exogneous: therapy and medication Endogenous: medication and when that doesn't 'do the job' electroconvulsion therapy (shocks) do help. but this is very controversial due to historical reasons.
