I always thought I was very depressed, because I've had episodes of these ever since I was tiny - but I just recently figured out that I'm having panic attacks! They usually come out of nothing and I get very doom and gloom, my heart races, I feel queasy, I get hot and cold...

i like to craft. i am not a machine and so things don't always turn out perfect. I also feel like objects in reality are open for interpretation. For example there are no such things as pink bunny rabbits. bunny rabbit are gray, white, brown/tan/fawn or black. but if my artist...

17... though still not an adult, not at all far from being an adult. It's only recently hit me that as much as I am happy and lucky enough to have such a kind, and caring family, they are treating me too young for my age and look down on me. I complain enough about my family...

I just want to know what are some of the typical signs of a parent going through their mid-life crisis. My dad is fine. It's my mom who I suspect is going through it. Though she's always had an attitude I realized it has been rising for the past couple of years. Without...

To Ginger. I wish you knew the reason why I haven’t call you for a long time. It’s impossible to be with you anymore. Not only my mom stopped me to go back to you crying but also my family told me to break off if I go. And here is more. Do you remember when we walked around...

Ok, so lastnight we started painting our kitchen. We rented a paint sprayer to paint the celing (not the first time we have rented one) And from previous experience, we know that these little paint driplets get EVERYWHERE, so it's important to cover everything, right? Well not...

I'm having a hard time thinking of a name for my new shop. I'm going to sell a variety of different things, pretty much anything that comes to mind. (Paintings,jewelry,clothes,accessories,handbags,toys,shoes...) How did you come up with your shop name? Or any advice how to...

do you ever feel depressed because of that? I do or when you feel like making something but don't know what? or when you realise you don't have the materials you need..? Do you think creativity is something that can be learnt or that you just born with?

So I rescued a 4-6 wk. old kitten from abandonment outside my apartments, a few nights ago. I have a daughter, Sofi who will be turning 3 in February. She happened to be spending a couple days at her dad's house, when I brought him home, but she came home yesterday afternoon....

Reading and posting on another thread prompted me to post this one. Who else thinks that statement is bunch of bull?! I think that whenever a "customer" spats that mess, they are usually trying to be shady about something and/or get something for free. Yeah, yeah, yeah I'm a...

Not too long ago I thought that taking up crafts in my spare time would be a good and fun hobby. Hardly ever find anything I really want in the stores. And when I do find something cool they're usually at a ridiculously high price. For example: a cute, small liquid bottle...

I am so frigging frustrated at my partner right now I've been trying to clean up our place as we've got a two bedroom home and just way to much junk, that half of its spilling outside (literally) its not un hygenic looking its just messy looking and its getting to the stage...

So I'm a bigger gal and whilst usually I don't care about what others think of my looks wise its just gotten to me recently and I think its due to my own anxiety issues (I suffer chronic agoraphobia) however usually when I go out shopping I don't care about the sly looks some...
