Would appreciate ANY advice to help my male mindset?
Hey there, thanks for reading this.My ex grilfriend broke up with me 3 months ago, and i was very upset over this. She wasnt very good to me, and i became very insecure I haven't had sex yet, she wasnt really ready, but 'technically' I lost my virginity to her. I was crushed yesterday to find out at a party in the most unfortunate way that she's dating someone else.Anyway my mind is going crazy. I feel nothing like a man right now, and definetely during our relationship as well because she wasnt ready to have sex and was basically " teasing me" with it. I ended up having like performance anxiety issues..and now alone..major confidence issues on top of that. I'm 21 now..in my final year of school..and feel that i cant start over and that i feel a bit scared about what lies in the future with me and sex. It's killing me as a male here. Please help me to get the right mindset back just an added note..she wasnt a virgin. she had sex with her previous boyfriend. It was the fact that she wasnt ready to have sex with ME. that caused the insecurity issues, i wouldnt have had them if she was a virgin..it wouldnt have bothered me. thanks a lot for helping guys

How does one find the mindset to exercise?
I'm roughly 60 pounds over my idea weight. I have a stationary recumbent bike that I occasionally ride, but nowhere nearly as often as I should to lose weight. I'm well aware of the physiological benefits of exercising, and how detrimental fat can be. But I'm wondering if anyone knows of a web site or book or something that can help me to get into the proper mindset to do it on a consistent basis.For comparison, I was wondering if there was something similar to Allen Carr's book on quitting smoking which did wonders for me . Thanks

Is there something wrong with this kind of mindset?
Many times I feel that nothing is right or wrong. Even if I hear of a murder I think that maybe the murderer couldn't help doing what he did and it's human nature failings and that such things will happen.I get verry angry a few times on hearing of such things and I feel that the guilty person should be punished severely.But this happens rarely.Is this normal?Thanks.
Is an eating disorder more about your mindset?
I know that eating disorders are to do with the way that you control what you eat, or the lack of control if you over eat, but is it possible that its to do with your mindset, even if you eat normally? EG Anorexia Person eats normally,but thinks that they need to lose weight and that they should stop eating to achieve this. This question is not meant to offend, and is not for personal use. I am studying a psychology course at the moment . Thanks for all your answers
Has anyone here who recovered from depression and suicidal thoughts have this mindset?
I'm 100 % back to normality but for some reason I keep going over it in my mind and even though life is good and a complete contrast to where I was last year I always have that thought......the thought that if I did commit suicide I wouldn't have regretted it simply b c it hurt sooo much and the memories are really painful. Does anyone else have these?I try not to dwell on it and it doesn't affect me I do think about it A LOT, not in a 'Im gonna take my life if it returns knowing the future' but a 'Whoa, I don't know how I'm alive that was horrible'
Do you think alcoholics annonymous could keep people in a sick mindset and stop u from recovering?
I'm an alcoholic and suffer from anxiety disorder aswell, I want to do a course called the linden method which says it will eliminate anxiety and ocd for good and has a high success rate, my friend from aa said I will always have like an ocd because of my alcoholism but then I think he goes to meetings every week and keeps confirming all of his problems so in a way is he keeping himself stuck? I'm not sure but I would like to think it is cureable, would be great to have some different opinions off people, thanks.
Paranoid thoughts/feelings about food. Could I be developing an eating disorder mindset?
I started off my day today by walking 5 miles and then having breakfast, which consisted of bran flakes 30g with two tablespoons of natural yogurt and some blackberries. Later on I had to go into town so I had my lunch at the local supermarket's cafe...I had a ham salad three big slices of ham with lettuce, cherry tomatoes and a few croutons and then I couldn't resist having a slice of apple and toffee pie.The thing is, I feel guilty. I eat a healthy diet every day but treated myself this once and I feel awful about it...like I'm going to suddenly pile weight on and I feel compelled to do more exercise, almost as if to punish myself.I'm going to have a healthy dinner tuna steak with mushrooms, cabbage and broccoli so I know I'm not going to be exceeding my daily calorie limit 1200 because of the apple pie...but I still feel really bad.Am I developing an " eating disorder" mindset and, if so, what can I do to combat it?I'm 5'2" and 7st 12lbs so rationally I know I needn't be worrying excessively about my weight but I can't seem to help it. I'm now calorie counting practically everything I eat.
How to break free of the bulimic mindset?
Bulimia has been as issue I've been dealing with for a long time now, though the past year has been a progression in a positive direction.I've seen doctors, I've taken the steps nessecary to largely recieve help and work toward a state of health, yet I still struggle at times to break free of the " bulimic mindset" being caught up in guilt over food and it's consumption, desiring and carrying out a purging episode to compensate for eating something unhealthy, etc. This is something I really now only deal with once every few weeks or so, which is such an improvement. I just want this finally behind me though. I want to be done with these " slip ups" .Has anyone been through this? Words of wisdom?
