In today's show (episode 295), Dr. Lisle discusses the following questions:

1. I am a 35 year old female and I don't know what to do with my life. I have a bachelors degree in biochemistry and doctorate degree in pharmacy. I worked as a clinical pharmacist for a year but I got bored and I quit. Then I worked as a massage therapist, a real estate agent, and a dental hygienist. I got bored of these as well. They just didn't satisfy me, even though I don't even know what I'm looking for or what I want. My relationships are the same as my careers - casual at best with many different men. I really want to settle down in a career and relationship but I just seem unable to. What should I do?
2. The euthanasia law changes in Canada to include mental illness as a valid reason seem deeply disturbing to me based on an evolutionary psychology perspective for people in the majority of situations. This would have been considered a "slippery slope" argument on euthanasia in the past, I cannot see how they are considered logical fallacies anymore at this point. What is your libertarian perspective on this issue given your wealth of knowledge within these areas?
3. My son recently became disabled. If "finding yourself in good circumstances" is what leads to feelings of happiness, how will I ever feel happiness again? How could I ever feel "happiness" for him if everything about his life is now difficult and painful. These are not good circumstances. My pain and sadness for him and his future is indescribable.
4. Can you discuss adrenaline rush and the people who seek it? especially with respect to free climbers.. i mean i get the status acquisition part but god are they crazy ?
5. I am curious about how homophobic sentiment arose in humans. Has it always been there?
