too much?
Feb 17, 2010 in the Adulthood: Transitioning Into Expert Forum
Thanks for your post -- if I'm understanding you correctly, while you seem to be frustrated by the amount that your parents ask of you, not feeling appreciated is the bigger frustration. I'm not sure that this would help, but have you told your parents that you would appreciate more encouragement?
I hate myself and my life
Feb 10, 2010 in the Adulthood: Transitioning Into Expert Forum
Thanks for elaborating on your original post. It sounds like you have already been dealing with symptoms of depression even prior to your recent move. I get the sense that you are beginning to adjust to the move a little bit better and mobilizing to take care of yourself better. As far as the issue about the video games, stuffed animals, etc., you seem to...

Before I respond, I was wondering -- why did you move from California?
will my 7yr old son accept my girlfriend
Feb 04, 2010 in the Adulthood: Transitioning Into Expert Forum
This is a difficult situation that you find yourself in -- you are aware that your son is having a reaction to the presence of your girlfriend, worrying about losing you, though at the same time you appear to care a lot about your girlfriend. At the same time, I am struck the most by your level of sensitivity to your son's emotional state and your desire to ...
adult child living at home or moving back home
Jan 28, 2010 in the Adulthood: Transitioning Into Expert Forum
I don't have a clear answer for you -- you'd like to see that your children are able to make it on their own but I get the sense that you're also concerned that they won't.
Assistance with young adults angry for rules at home
Jan 18, 2010 in the Adulthood: Transitioning Into Expert Forum
Thanks for your post -- your issue seems actually to be less about dealing with your kids' anger at your rules, and more about the lack of support you feel from your spouse for the enforcement of the rules. I think the place to start is to speak to your husband about why you feel it is necessary to have the rules you have, why his lack of support of those ru...
childhood abuse

First, let me address the two specific questions you ask: 1) Regarding your cervical smear -- I am not sure if this is a necessary procedure for a younger woman who is not sexually active, so I cannot comment on this one way or the other. This is a question you may want to ask on the gynecology forum if you haven't already. 2) Regarding the possibility...
Fear of the Near Future
Jan 04, 2010 in the Adulthood: Transitioning Into Expert Forum
Hi Kate, thanks for your post. I think that I was most struck by your sense that you need to find someone who you can talk to who can explore in greater depth with you your fears of growing up and getting old. And I admit that I am biased -- I am a therapist and I have heard younger people in your age range articulate similar concerns, and I have found tha...
Mother and son sleeping together
Dec 30, 2009 in the Adulthood: Transitioning Into Expert Forum
I cannot comment on whether or not this is "normal" behavior in Brazil. My question, though, is -- what difference does it make? As you said, you would never engage in this behavior, and it sounds like it does not bother them to. If you want, you could point out to the student that in your culture parents and older children tend to be less physic...
Becoming a doctor in this lifetime
Dec 28, 2009 in the Adulthood: Transitioning Into Expert Forum
I don't have that much to add to what you have discussed with the other commenter thus far. However, I would say that you have a lot to weigh, but consider that even if you were to go to medical school and that training were to take 8 years, you would be 42 and doing what you want to do for potentially the next 30 plus years. So ultimately, it depends on wh...
