When I stayed at a mental health facility in Oklahoma, they told me I had to stay at least 5 days minimum and that weekend/holidays don't count towards the 5 days. Are they allowed to do that? I was still billed for the weekend the same as the weekdays.

Not only that, but the doctor that I spoke to told me he forgot to get my paperwork sent through and that it would have to be another day before I can get out. I got mad, mentioned I need to get a lawyer, and I was out within 2 hours on the 6th day. I smelled greed as soon as he said he "forgot".

This was at the Bethany Memorial in Oklahoma btw.

Do you have any special instructions or any restrictions for your life now that you have had a lung transplant? Do you have to take any medication to keep your body from rejecting the lungs?

How do you keep yourself looking so young? (Not that 44 is old) But you look exactly the same as you did in Starship Troopers!

Hey. Thank you so much for doing this AMA. I've learned quite a bit so far.

Ive looked online several times, but to no avail. I couldn't find anyone else that has this issue. I've heavily considered seeing someone about it. So far, it hasn't affected my day to day.

Sometimes when I'm working out or just having a boring day, I just think to myself. When I say I think, I mean I think hard. Sometimes getting so lost in thought I don't notice certain things happening around me. When this happens, seemingly random, bad thoughts pop through my head. Not to get too specific, but thoughts such of events or scenarios of very bad things happening to my loved ones. Things that I know aren't very probable of even happening. When I dwell on such thoughts, I get this rage like no other. It's almost like I get locked into a daydreaming nightmare. Sometimes, it even happens while I listen to music. Despite how horrible the thoughts are, or dreams as I call them, I always come out on top. I end up "saving the day" so to speak and then I "wake up". This sounds way more bizarre typing it out than I thought it would.

I get so angry and stressed. It doesn't last very long, but I know this can't be good for me. My question is have you ever heard of someone else having this and is there even a medical term for it? Is this a type of anxiety? Thank you so much in advance.

Hello Dr Peterson and thank you for doing this AMA. I was raised in a strict religious household. Now I'm 26 and a non believer.

Despite being a non believer, I find it incredibly hard to deal with the death of family and friends and the future loss of family and friends. Being religious, you have the belief of an afterlife. My reasons for not being religious refuse me to go back to my religious thinking. It's like I am stuck between wanting there to be some sort of deity and afterlife, but I can't force myself to be.

How the heck do I cope with this?
