By medical research standards, the evidence for omega 3 is not conclusive, but there is a lot of evidence that it's definitely worth trying. http://www.amazon.com/Omega-3-Connection-Groundbreaking-Anti-depression-Program/dp/0684871386 http://www.psycheducation.org/depression/meds/Omega-3.htm

I never scroll past your comments or think you're an idiot. You're one of the people I value most here. There - stuff that in your pipe and smoke it!

I'm with nia on this one - I find it extremely surprising you should say this - and makes me feel a bit sad. I still have this a bit but it was paralysing when I was younger. I used buddhist mindfulness to overcome this though and I still find it the most effective way of quieting the...

Hey there - I'm thinking of you too - is there anything I can help you with - lesson planning etc? I am definitely up for lunch - I'm away next week and weekend (in the US!!) and then from 11th Nov I'm in Jordan for 2 weeks, but apart from that have few plans. I'm absolutely fine now btw - in...

Flow - that was anti-lolz nasty!

Interesting questions nia ... 1. It feels affirming and comforting. It feels like someone cares. 2. I am blessed to be surrounded by people who listen extremely well (a handy by product of working in health and social care) 3. The forum makes me feel listened to by people who empathise...

I agree with Waterstiller - I think you need to find a spiritual path and I think buddhism would be a good choice. If the rat race doesn't inspire you, then you need a non-material inspiration. Let go of any notion that you have to gain the approval of others and then follow your dreams.

hehe I have no experience with this sort of thing - but I did manage to burrow a hole into the centre of the earth, and jump out of it. And it's really good fun standing underwater and then jumping up and back into the water. And I built a tower of toadstools which was quite fun. I need to...

I could tell you a hilarious story about an INTP trying to play Taboo. But I need to get up!

What an absolutely brilliant idea. I have always said I hate Christmas - but what I mean is I hate the Christmases of my childhood and other people's notions of Christmas which end up poisoning a perfectly nice time off. Having said that, over the past few years as my children have become...

oh Jordan - hugs to you - I'm sorry you're hurting so much and i'll pm you with some ideas soon. You can get over this without drugs and I'll be in touch soon - just can't do it right now.

When a smartarse trainer put this slide up and asked our team 'how many Fs' and I looked, counted and said '6' and utterly ruined his whole presentation which depended on showing how we only 'see' in a limited way. when after doing the above, your colleagues all look at you with awe and you...

Mm sounds really interesting! I've found in the past that Alexander Technique, and deep massage have helped me a lot - also recently I have discovered that walking is hugely helpful when I have feelings of turmoil - it seems to stimulate my problem-solving and I can often resolve those nasty...

I did write something here: http://intpforum.com/showthread.php?t=2801 Yeah I think they have a lot to offer - what sort of techniques is she using?

Well it's either bipolar 2 disorder or it's that you have mood swings. Personally I have found meditation to be the most useful way to cope with mood swings as well as developing awareness of what triggers them and trying to avoid those situations and people (note how I missed one of them...

aww thanks - much appreciated - things are much better today though - but it's remarkably helpful being able to dump it on that thread.

He's another of those NLP/Ericksonian 'packaged' people who are basically selling hypnotic techniques to manipulate women into bed, isn't he? Do you mean you enjoy watching other people do it?

Hello Anna and welcome. I am rather stupid for a clever person but somehow manage to cope here - 2 kids and full time job suck the brains out of me.

hello Ran. and welcome. Am I the only person who is driven senseless by the fact that the 'spoiler' tab says 'dispay' instead of 'display'? Having said that - I really enjoyed the use of the spoiler there to record your inner ramblings - I rather wish I could have something similar IRL - it...

it's nobody's fault

oh! how strange I didn't notice it before ... I think I may have ordered the book a while ago on your recommendation and put it aside and forgotten I'd done that - thanks for the reminder.

Twitter????? You are making my brain bleed. Yes I read the thread but I simply can't accept it. Loved your response to Blob though.

hey, thanks for doing that - now I feel a lot more interested in you! I love Vonnegut too - such a loss. Sirens of Titan is thought-provoking too and fun. Have you tried any Thomas Pynchon? The Crying of Lot 39 is a good place to start. Gravity's Rainbow is one of the best books I've ever...

when logic leads you to the conclusion that the only thing you can do now is to trust that the universe has a plan and you just have to let it unfold - and you have to accept that because it's the only logical conclusion in the situation you are in once you have examined all the evidence a...

hello sniktawekim, welcome to the forum - hope you find what you want here - and appreciate the random and tangential benefits you will never have imagined. questions? what kind of music do you like? what are your hobbies? what do you like to think about? what do you want to be when you grow...

There are no perfect matches out there - go for the nearest to your ideal and then do the hard work to make the relationship work.

hi WS - where does the new quote in your sig come from? i love it. (and you look great in your photo!

Song Dragon In the war between good and evil, a Song Dragon tends to walk the fine line of Neutrality. When it comes to the powers of Chaos vs. those of Law and Order, your inner dragon walks a fine line between Law and Chaos. As far as magical tendancies, a Song Dragon's nature does not lend...

[back in her icy palace snowqueen pops the lock of hair into liquid nitrogen, then shatters it into tiny pieces which she grinds into dust. Putting the precious dust into a tiny jewelled box she thinks to herself, 'now where can I sprinkle my Melkor Dust to create mayhem and chaos'?]

when you wonder if you should point out to Cobra that it's not him ... nah let him have a little pleasure. >>>>>scrreeeeeech.... backs up. You're TWEETING???? gah - I would have hoped that INTPs were above such frippery - surely that's nearly small talk??

^^ thanks for support, Cobra! when you fall in love and are convinced you are now INFP :rolleyes:

So much for ignoring me! You liiiiiiike me, you liiiiiiiike me, you just caaaaaaaaaan't admiiiiiiit it. [snips off a lock of Melkor's hair and runs off]

when you have to wait till you're 53 till you find someone worth telling your thoughts ... welcome Eloise and TipicoTipiC

It'd be my honour to be called that by you!

Thank you for your continuing commitment to keeping the forum alive - I, for one, appreciate it.

Hi again, ah yes - that sounds very familiar! My mind is both a complicating and clarifying machine. Neither make life any easier. Frankly it's nice to find someone who still enjoys hobbies - what are you up to at the moment? (Apart from clutching ice cubes to your seared chest, that is)

I dedicated a story to you in EditorOne's 'wild' thread :-)

dull, dull, dull, unimaginative, tedious, whiny little turd.

Dead baby jokes? eeew that's not at all the same as what I meant! It's more about finding the bizarre angle like you did with the comedian/suicide joke. I like silly funny and awkward funny too. I love Eddie Izzard and The Mighty Boosh (Sed will get upset now)

you know you're intp when you direct boredrestless to the intro thread so he can experience the full intpf welcome and compulsory tasteless thread derail as his initiation. you know you want to do it!!

Cobra!!!! Hey there! Great to see you back on the forum. I've missed you. Hope this isn't a fleeting visit and you bring back your unique flavour into the crazy mix.

^^lol and welcome you start answering a question your 13 year old asked and she says 'look mum I don't need the 'na ne na ne na ne na ne' answer, that works on my sister, I just need 'boom boom'. (true story)

The diagnosis is simply a pathological description. I doubt it can be of use because it only offers one set of possibilities and doesn't take into account the crazy context he was living in. You're right - given the right conditions, anyone can become unstable - and the form that takes may be...

I know what kind of humour comes from and kills INTPs because I share an office with one and we spend most of the time clutching our stomachs laughing. It's either 'what is the worst and most cutting creative insult I can give you?' or seriously dark inappropriate stuff (makes that suicide joke...

Hi Jazz and welcome - what a wonderful set of responses you've elicited from forum members so far! Auburn - I'm a romantic too!! Unashamedly so ... only life and lost loves have hardened my shell. The cracks have started to show since I've been hanging out here though. I love Miles Davis...

Ah the voice of reason! Yes, you are right of course. Your new thread is fabulous - I will definitely contribute later - have to go to work now!

I cried when I started reading the INTP forums - it felt like I finally came home. Welcome home.

That was hilarious! Nice insight into your mind :) INXP then Enviably well balanced. I wouldn't spend much time worrying about it though - just join in here if you feel comfortable and check out the INFP forum too - any time I wonder if I might really be INFP I go over there for a bit...

I like to the one on www.mypersonality.info the best. It says to do it without thinking - I disagree entirely. It is much better to think a bit - is this what I would *like* to be like, or is it what I am like. Am I like this because I think I should be - or if I'm honest, is that what I...

thanks zmc (and welcome btw - please do an intro soon) I don't do stats at all! Can't cope with numbers. But if I did, that site would be fab! I do interpretive analysis on qualitative data rather than statistical (which is really another form of quantitative research even though it's using...
