The condition is different from anxiety disorder which lacks the presence of a stressor, or post-traumatic stress disorder and acute stress disorder which usually are associated with a more intense stressor. Adjustment Disorders may also be acute or chronic, depending on whether it lasts more or less than six months.

Ever since I was 14 I knew I was attracted to both sexes.....well at first I thought it'd go away, but it never did. The most confusing part is it's not necessarily the gender I'm attracted to, it's the connection I have with the person, whether they're a man, woman, anything really. So does that make me bisexual? I often find myself wishing to be a woman again, but I am madly in love with my boyfriend of 2 years. I'm afraid I'm being unfaithful by desiring the opposite sex. It doesn't hurt to look right?
I guess my main concern would be, what sexual orientation am I? And I have begun rambling!!!

The G-spot: What is it?
The Gräfenberg spot or G-spot was discovered by Ernst Gräfenberg a German gynecologist who first described it as “an erotic zone located on the anterior wall of the vagina along the course of the urethra that would swell during sexual stimulation.” The area the G-spot occupies is called the urethral sponge and it is tissue that surrounds the urethra (the tube we pee out of) that swells with fluid during sexual arousal. It is associated with the prostate gland in men and is made up of a complex system of erectile tissue, secretion glands (the Skene’s gland), the internal pelvic nerve and muscles that engage with one another during the arousal cycle. In most women it is sensitive to pressure and stimulation which can lead to high levels of sexual arousal and powerful orgasms. The existence of a G-spot has been widely accepted and most popular sexology books treat it as fact. In one study of female ejaculation, 84% of the approximately 1300 professional women who responded reported a sensitive area in the vagina, and this was correlated with those who also reported ejaculation.

Gays and lesbians have long been encouraged to change their sexual orientation through therapy or other treatments, on the assumption that homosexuality is merely a lifestyle choice.
That advice should change, psychologists now say.
Mental health professionals should avoid telling clients that they can change their sexual orientation through therapy or other treatments, according to a new resolution adopted by the American Psychological Association.

Of Me I Sing
His Serene Highness, the Emperor Hussein, has a song in his heart.
By David Kahane
I woke up this morning with a song on my lips. Well, not exactly a song — more like a tune, a song without words.
