I believe you. Looks like your good side is fighting your bad side. Personally, I think it could be one of these: \n1. you could be bipolar-need medication\n2. you have been invaded by a spirit- need psychic help\n3. could be one of your past lives- need a hypnotist\n4. or you have had some sort of trauma and your really angry inside but on the outside you are a sweet person- need a psychiatrist.

It's called Empathic, a form of ESP.  There is lots out there on it.  Just Google it and take a look.

Not very well. I wonder why some people even get on this topic of religious & spirituality, only to slam those who know about God and walk with God. The person, who answered this question, only to say those who believe have mental problems, seems very angry, and admits to not following God. So I guess you see, those who do not follow God walk around with anger and seem to attack those who walk in faith. Others, as you read feel God "hates " them. This is another sign of those who are faithless and feeling hurt and empty. Yet others make replies about needing alcohol, this is a way they attempt to fill the void inside of them.Others refer to "thinking" versus believing". You see some are very confused in their thinking. Satan comes to steal one's faith. He comes to deceive. By reading some of the disbelievers answers, many have fallen to Satan's deceit. Hopefully, their lives will lead them to the truth. God is the way, the truth, and the light. It does not matter what antichrists believe. All eyes will see and all ears will hear the truth. Some people can live for quite a while in denial of the truth....but eventually, they will need to face it. I really believe they want to believe and are looking for God.Why else would they get on this topic to answer,\nthe questions. The interest is there, they are drawn to religous & spirituality questions/topics. They are bitter & angry. They need people of faith to teach them about God. They are looking for beacons of light to lead the way, as they are walking in darkness.

I think anger comes from hurt. Something's probably hurting you and anger & annoyance is your outlet for it.   My mom used to tell me that getting angry does not hurt the one you're angry at, but eats you inside. It made me mad when she said that (lol) but I think she was right. I wish I had some constructive advice for you, because just saying "let it go" is easy to say, but doing it is hard. the only thing I do, is when I catch myself feeling that way is to ask myself "is this even going to matter in 5 years" and most of the time it's no, and I doubt I will even remember it in 5 years, so then my annoyance kind of slips away, because it doesn't matter!

If you believe this to be a moral issue, then you should just wait.  What's the harm?  If your beliefs are that strong, you should not be bothered by ridicule or shame or whatever is making you so angry.  Refer to the purpose of suffering (ask a priest). Also, what's good for you may not be good for others and your question is more multi-layered than you realize.  Cultures change; not always for the better.

Psychoanalysis finds out more about your true self in the true sense of what christ said "I and my father are one". whereas u must be aware of T.A. transactional analysis, a form of psychiatry, wherein u find out about your 3 selves, your parent, your child and your adult.These fanatics play a game of religious schemeil and sort of get a supremacy feeling when they say christ is all.?That's all they have, so that sort of makes them feel ok and accepted. They can't accept themselves and they sell out to christ to feel accepted.\n     Yes, u are 100 % right. they are mental patients who refuse to see reality.\n    I would suggest the folowing books to get more awareness of one-self and about what human nature is all about. Believe me, it is worth the effort expended.\n\n Any book by Dr. Eric berne

You cannot literaly sommon him persay, however you can conjure the essence of the darkness that he has become.\nlet lust, anger, rage, and hatred consume you. dwell in darkness and utter selfishness. find something, anything, to be angry about and let it consume you during meditation. if you let it grow this will induce an aimless rage that ,if potent enough and if selfishly embraced, you will feel radiating from your face and skin as a soft warmth, do not unleash the rage on anything though, you want embrace it as though it were your beloved child. once you have taken enough rage from whatever reason you have chosen to be angry about, develope a lust for new things to be angry about to consume more rage from your hatred of them. During this state it is not possible to have any sort of friendship since it forces you to have a sort of compassion for one another. love is essentialy the root of compassion, and if you hate then you cannot love anything, therefore you cannot care about anything. This being said you can  only have allies who seek the same path as yourself.  Sit in darkness during meditation, since you cant see though darkness without light your eyes will only reflect images produces by your thoughts, this will creat a suitable environment in order to conjure his essence from within yourself, as you are the initiator.  thouroughly practice these meditations for about 2 months(if you can without others noticing and worring about you) and before long, you will be able to sense a powerful hatred and discust encompassing you that isn't entirely your own. Bringing about this essence is some what easy beacause about 7/10 of the worlds population practices the same thing unconsiously and so it thrives in the atmousphere.\n\nI do not recomend trying this, it will only harm you in the end since that is its nature. I was only answering your question.

My wife and I are opposite.  She is like you.  She looks for the negatives, I look for the positives.  I'm not sure you can really change over night.  You need to recognize what you doing.  The next time you are presented with something, take a step back and analyze the whole picture.  Your instinct knows how you want to respond, but look for the positives first.  Recognize how your negative reaction is going to affect others.  Sure there are negatives to everything, but if you can find positives, you are going to be much more happy.  Let go of your negativity....life is way too short to go through being negative all the time.  I always look at something and say things could be worse.  I wish you the best of luck!

Your emotions are the key to your TRUE self my friend. Pay good attention to it. As a human being, we are subject to all kinds of emotions, love, fear, anger, jealosy etc.... But the emotions you should always look out for are your fears.. It is hidden most of the time / makes you do stupid things ;P / AND if you can overcome your fears you will be free to make choices and make impossible things happen for you / Stuff you've always dreamed about... Always follow your gut instinct. It will always tell you something you need to do. Good luck!

Sounds like you need a hug. When do you feel the most rage? What sets if off? The fact that you are asking for help is a good sign. Please, seek professional help so you don't hurt anyone ESPECIALLY yourself. Seek out that hug for me.

First of all I would like to commend you for making the best decision of your life. I know that it appears to be a struggle letting go of the habits that you have developed in life, but I will assure you that it only feels like that because that is how the evil one would like you to feel, defeated. But you know as well as I do that there is only one source that is mightier than that evil liar, and that is Almighty God Himself.!!!  The fact that you want to be a Christian role model for your children will indeed cause the liar to squirm, it will reek havoc among its clique, causing it to throw temper tantrums and spreading a barage of lies and imaginations your way, the liar of lies will try and make you feel as if you are doing all this in vain. BUT-- NOT TO BE DISCOURAGED!!! Tada - Our Heavenly Father is watching and keeping His hand over you, you see there were some promises that were given to you when you accepted God's Son as your Savior. You were promised Eternal Salvation as long as you remained faithful and did not turn your back on Jesus, it sounds to me like you are doing all that you can to retain the relationship that you have with Jesus. Amen. Here are some scriptures that will surely help you as the liar comes to overwhelm you. Remember brother, as soon as it tries to decieve you, rebuke it with authority, the authority that God gave you!! You can stand up to that wiley thief, as long as you believe that you are a child of God, the brother of Jesus and the Prevailing Saint that God intended you to be. \nOur prayers will be with you brother, I know that you will dominate this challenge that has come your way, Have Faith, Trust and Believe!!\nFreedom from Sin - Ezekiel 36:25-26 - Romans 6:6-7 - 2 Corinthians 5:17 - \nRomans 6:14 - Colossians 2:6-7 - 1Corinthians 16:13 - Isaiah 40:29\nthese are just a few. God Bless you brother.

Ok, what you are experiencing is called confirmation bias, where you set up a hypothesis and look for evidence, in this case, that you are a failure. Not that what you do is a failure, but YOU! What crap that is, but I can understand your hurt feelings and anger. It is obvious that you live for others to recognize and validate you. You may be expecting too much from some people with very limited capacity for what you need. But you deserve the strokes, the recognition, the proud looks, someone validating that you did good! Well ya did. Tremendous work going to college and graduating with honors. I know. I am so sorry they didn't share this with you. I am willing to bet 1000 bucks that they didn't get their degrees. Am I right? Because it is hard to celebrate others successes when you haven't been successful in that way. But still, what is one to do? Because this is a theme for you (the victim feelings and hurt) and you can't change them, you must get that validation and understanding from someone who cares and can help. Go see a counselor. Find one that you like and let loose how pissed off you are. How deeply wounded you are. You feel invisible because people haven't validated you enough. Go and get it! Claim it! You are a grown up now and you have to find the healing now. Counseling will help I promise. And maybe those twerps will come around someday, but don't sit on your sorry butt waiting for it. You are worthy of recognition. I saw it. You are not the failure. It is the dynamics of your family system. Do not claim the garbage that isn't yours OK? Take care.

Psychologically speaking, failure to accept the truth is widely recognized as a symptom of a mental disorder. No sh_t!!!!!!!!

You are basically a good chap. What is wrong with you is you are short tempered. You have to control your anger which can be done by minimising your expectations from others. Secondly, remember that this world is imperfect and to expect your degree of perfection in others conduct is unrealistic. You yourself introspect and discover how imperfect you are. The more you look within and try to take some correctional measures, within no time you will be liked by others; and you will start loving yourself. People do not remember how nice you have been to them but once you are uncouth in your treatment towards others, they never forget and hence never forgive.
