I can't believe this bullshit. Things were going at least smoothly. And then, all of a sudden, this psychopath comes back. I tried sleeping last night, and I was real, real freaking cranky. My brother has a child and his GF live in the house, and every damn night they are really, really loud...

This is a huge one, and it's not so simple to solve, but I've been able to sort of identify the problem. I remember one time I had a pretty bad meltdown in front of a class. I was filled with so much anger and hate at the moment, and I let it all out. Eventually I remember the next day the...

Oooh, I know this feeling. I've never really had many stable personal friendships (at least not since elementary school) because of a lot of factors. One thing that has somewhat helped me was finding some pen-pals. There are various pen-pal sites that you can google and set up a profile. What I...

My rage tends to be provoked. Usually when I'm near a stressor, I can get really pissed the f*ck off easily. The immediate anger tends to "wear away", but it never fully dissipates as I've noticed. Usually it's still there and if one little thing pisses me off I'm back into full on rage mode...

@rightkindofme I've learned that corporal punishment should be best avoided. In fact, my dad has actually realized this. If I ever have a child, I want to treat that person with respect and dignity. Wow! I'm definitely not alone! I think the problem that all of us have consequently suffered as...

This brings back some dark, dark times. My brother sometimes still acts in a very similar way. I would have to assume this asshole probably sees every piece of shit that comes out of his mouth as the right answer, and that he cannot lose an argument. That's what it sounds like. He knew you...

I don't think I'm alone when I state this. Whenever I look back at what has happened to me, all the abuse (physical, mental, emotional, verbal, etc in many different forms), one thing that always strikes my find is this feeling of having my childhood stolen from me. I was never given a chance...

I will tell you this right now: I'm a very paranoid person. I have been for a long time. As I've posted before, my treatment at school really affected me into developing a PTSD. The major problem that I still experience though are not just the dissociative episodes, but also the constant...

And now I've returned to the forum. Sorry for my absence, internet bill wasn't payed on time but now isn't a problem for the time being. I should mention my face (and body) has been clearing DRAMATICALLY since I've really made more of an effort. Literally, I've stopped breaking out, and I'm...

@joeylittle - I still don't have an official diagnosis, but given my autism diagnosis (as well as recommendations from a counselor), I should be able to get independent studies.

I no longer have to go to high school (a MAJOR PTSD stressor). My family has agreed to instead take me to independent study. Basically, I attend a different school once a week and I just do some work there. It counts full for my graduation. People can obtain this if they have certain issues. I'm...

Actually, Accutane probably isn't likely. My main problem is my upper body acne. My face is fine. I think I'm just gonna let it clear up, adjust the diet (I talked about this), and maybe use some product.

I understand your rant (I hate those people), but let it be known my acne is a lot closer to your's, with cysts. Yes, I have gone gluten free (though not corn-free; in fact, some corn products are one of the few foods I can eat that my skin doesn't hate), and honestly I plan to keep it that...

As usual, real life disabilities and differences in thinking are used as jokes or stereotypes. Autism and schizophrenia often bears an even stronger brunt when it comes to jokes and stigma, but this looks the same. I'd really just ignore it, as offensive as it might be. No need to give these...

Perhaps your husband doesn't have very noticeable acne. I mean, he is an adult (then again, my brother has VERY noticeable acne, and it's not a pretty sight). Believe me, it's probably a LOT different. Overall, I'm a very self-conscious person, so I kinda freak out over these kinds of things...
