do you think there are opposite forces like you know NEO and SMITH from matrix... Or like in the movie unbreakable were bruce is the opposite of Sammy... You know opposite spectrums in all to keep things in balance?

Yin and Yang... good and evil... male and female... everything has its opposite

yes i do think there are, anything is possible, i dont know of any though.

Well if there are then that means I would have one and if they died then I would right?

no not really... you have an opposite, as a split personality...I think everyone has one but they just dont know it. your shadow can also be an opposite?

I'm sooo confused.....so we all have MPS?

there would be no good without evil... and vice versa, there would be no you without different moods and personality changes as you prospher growing older... and there is also the "you" as your awakening state and the "you" of your dreams... sort of like when you die in your dream, you think that you feel it when you wake up sweating or find you've wet the bed. lol.

when you accept both forces in and of yourself perhaps you shall be complete.

your opposites may exisit for you but until they come together how can you find balance?

Accept the dark and the light
bring them both into yourself and be one

Then no opposites exist only ordered chaos

everything has a balancing force. it is what keeps the universe spinning.

without an oppisite there would be no balance...

yin yang......black white...dog cat....
each thing has it's polar opposite...this is for a reason....

so could someone have a chemical imbalance opposite of depression? so there pretty much always happy

psh...if there were anything like that i wish i was happy as much as i've been depressed

i asked because i am hardily ever depressed pretty much only when i "GET" it from other people but most my friends say " with all the horrible shit in your life why arent you depressed all the time " I dont know why i just am not so maybe i have an imbalance that is oppsite of depression... Also i seem to be drawn to people who are depressed so maybe its to balance myself out because i can feel (GET) there depression...

I REALLY don't like comparing movie characters to make a point.

Everything that people say are just about right.....good and bad.

When an individual experiences a discrete period of persistent and pervasive manic (elated, irritable or euphoric) mood, this term may be applied.

Criteria for Manic Episode
A. A distinct period of abnormally and persistently elevated, expansive, or irritable mood, lasting at least 1 week (or any duration if hospitalization is necessary).

B. During the period of mood disturbance, three (or more) of the following symptoms have persisted (four if the mood is only irritable) and have been present to a significant degree:

(1) inflated self-esteem or grandiosity
(2) decreased need for sleep (e.g., feels rested after only 3 hours of sleep)
(3) more talkative than usual or pressure to keep talking
(4) flight of ideas or subjective experience that thoughts are racing
(5) distractibility (i.e., attention too easily drawn to unimportant or irrelevant external stimuli)
(6) increase in goal-directed activity (either socially, at work or school, or sexually) or psychomotor agitation
(7) excessive involvement in pleasurable activities that have a high potential for painful consequences (e.g., engaging in unrestrained buying sprees, sexual indiscretions, or foolish business investments)

C. The symptoms do not meet criteria for a Mixed Episode.

D. The mood disturbance is sufficiently severe to cause marked impairment in occupational functioning or in usual social activities or relationships with others, or to necessitate hospitalization to prevent harm to self or others, or there are psychotic features.

E. The symptoms are not due to the direct physiological effects of a substance (e.g., a drug of abuse, a medication, or other treatment) or a general medical condition (e.g., hyperthyroidism).
Note: Manic-like episodes that are clearly caused by somatic antidepressant treatment (e.g., medication, electroconvulsive therapy, light therapy) should not count toward a diagnosis of Bipolar I Disorder.

There is the opposite for Manic Depressives outside of depressive state.
Manic......

Not fun to be around people when their "opposites" are not balanced.....

WELL now lol i am not that bad i dont sleep much i do have many thoughts but i dont talk to much i dont do things that can cause others harm So i probly do have this but not to that EXSTREM where it affects my dayily attivitys... i can payattetion well sometimes to well

We tenc to discover what somehting is by first defining what somehting is not, and therefore to keep this equilibruim via our own perspective, antithesis would be necessary.

so im a manic i feel more awake off a 30 kintue or whatever nap then a full night sleep ????

i am just clinically depressed i dont get the up swings
LOL

do have to wonder if opposite attract where is mine and what happens when we meet....

I dont have a twin but I guess my opposite is somewhere else.

to be honest... i think this is all silly

not everything has an opposite. for christ sake that's just mad

come on... what's the opposite of a playstation 2? what's the opposite of the pillow on my bed? what's the opposite of a comet several billion light years away? what's the opposite of some random australians penis?

what a silly concept!!!!!

to answer your question is a scientific concept... anti-matter. to every particle of matter in existence, (atoms, molecules etc) there is a corresponding void. look it up ;)

so yeah in basis there actually is an opposite to everything.

I do believe in opposites. For example, Love and Hate I believe are 2 sides of the same coin. One cannot exist without the other. You cannot love something without hating. Just like in relationships. You love your partner because you hate them. You hate them because you love them. Their flaws make up their perfections. This is what I believe, though. Anyone else?

yes there are opposites but not to objects like playstation etc...opposites like water and fire, love and hate etc....

DarkDahlia the opposite of love is not hate dear. The opposite of love is apathy...

The Chaos of Light
The Order of Void
Love
Apathy

A shattered mind for me means perfect order for another?

EURCH!!!

that's all i have to say..

EURCH!!!

i'm not going into why :|

Without evil, good cannot exist, so there are two oposite forces, like black and white, like male and female, the world is composed of opposites and similarities, the problem is to find a balance in between the two and to see the simplicity of it all, *sighs* Okay... enough psychology blabber, My answers is yes.

yea i believe that there are. Like me and my brother he is way badder than i am (if thats possible kind of like im a good lil angel and he is a bad lil demon).

Hmmm.... I noticed in here a lot of interesting points. Some people were talking about opposite, others about split personalities whereas one person can be both good and bad. The way I see it The body and mind of an individual can become a very complex topic. Each of us has what everyone here has talked about. We can be good and/or evil, Strong or weak, Have the highest intelligence of all man or be as dumb as a box of rocks. I would like to hope that I am one of a kind. a unique individual if you will. I hope you feel the same.

do you people ever watch maurey povich on tv? lol odd couples, opposites attract. when old grandma and young biker dude get hitched and are in love, or vampy dude marries church-going mother of 2. lol

Yeppers...look at the color wheel...red vs green, blue vs orange, purple vs yellow...etc...

everything has an opposite.
ying and yang, dark and light, black and white, etc...

Well yes some good points have already been made . and lots of great examples as well, everything has an opposite

Its a truth when it comes to nature. You cannot know the day without the night. There are males and females. Even in plants these things exist. Without the sun everything would die...but without night, everything would be desert.

How could there not be opposites to keep balance?

You don't know what good is with out evil....light without dark...and so on. So of course each side should have some mutual respect, eventhough at odds, and sometimes at war.

“come on... what's the opposite of a playstation 2? what's the opposite of the pillow on my bed? what's the opposite of a comet several billion light years away? what's the opposite of some random australians penis?”

Completely amusing…a good argumentative soul. Let’s see I believe the opposite of playstation 2 would be an etch-a-sketch. The opposite of the pillow on your bed is definitely a section of wood on the floor. The opposite of a comet several billion light years away is a pebble at your feet. The last is difficult but I suppose the opposite of some random Australians penis would be an elite French woman’s vagina.

A blast from the past. Finding a three year old thread was nice but originality is always better.
