Defining the elusive line between mental disorder and normality is not simply a scientific question that can be left in the hands of the experts.

Holding ourselves to the same standards in solitude, denying ourselves the permission to experience unwanted emotions or feel indecent feelings when we are alone, is potentially harmful to our well-being.]]> no@spam.com (Tal Ben-Shahar) http://talentdevelop.com/articlelive/articles/890/1/Permission-to-Feel/Page1.html http://talentdevelop.com/articlelive/articles/850/1/Am-I-An-Emotional-Vampire-How-Do-I-Know/Page1.html We’ve all got a smidgeon of vampire in us, especially when we’re stressed. So, cut yourself a break. It’s admirable to admit, “I think I’m emotionally draining people. What can I do?” Can’t be free without such honesty. Then you can change.

You kind of do and you don’t [have to have a really big ego]... A friend of mine said, talking about writers, they’re egomaniacs with low self-esteem.

For people with attention-deficit disorder (ADD), stimulants like Ritalin and Adderall (a form of amphetamine) clearly improve intellectual performance. But do they boost brainpower for people without ADD—and if so, is such "cognitive enhancement" an appropriate use of these drugs?

Each one presents creative new ideas to help individuals overcome internal obstacles and achieve personal and professional goals. "Para" is the Latin prefix meaning "beyond". "Liminal" refers to the "limen" or "threshold" of conscious awareness. The term literally means, "beyond the threshold of conscious awareness".
