Why don't you start a post about online therapy? Some members have had good results. Though some have not. Maybe they can direct you to the credible services. I think "better now" is a good one.

No and in my opinion that person should not be a therapist. Therapist have to hear about abuse from both sides, abusers and victims. They have to hear about horrible animal abuse. They have to listen to people talk about their religious and political ideas. If you can't stand the heat get out...

oh laurie I feel it was more than justified. :D

Did she say she could get medical intervention? Most deaf people can't get medical intervention. They would have done so already in childhood. So maybe she thought you were being insensitive. Kinda like when people say to us, well you need therapy. I mean I have been in therapy for years and am...

Yes it is normal to feel it is good at times and not at others. Whether they have ASPD or not abusers of all kinds can be real charmers. That's how they rope us in to their abuse.

Lucy the reason it is titled that is because in psychiatry there is actually no one titled a psychopath but there is anti social personality disorder. This is the disorder people who the general public would view as psychopaths are diagnosed with. The key thing is that they cannot feel empathy.

The key characteristic of anti social personality disorder is that they cannot feel empathy. So no I would not date this person. If you have children he will cause them to also have PTSD with his abuse.

Well to be honest they were both super nice in the beginning. I think I have gotten good at spotting them because with the second guy he showed signs within a week. After that I have met a few guys that right away I was like "yeah abuser". I have read a lot about the potential signs and have...

I answered yes but after reading the whole thread I think I should have said sometimes. Philippa if you look at my profile I just updated my status with my favorite saying, "Don't argue with fools. You are not the jackass whisperer." This guy is a jackass as are all MRA men. No matter what you...

That's actually the response most sufferers want mrsmith.

Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I have learned to value being single and have been single most of my adult life actually. I just turned 30 so I guess I am eager to "get over" this trauma so I don't lose my window to find a good mate. I know that sounds ridiculous but you know most of the...

Selfie culture has dumbed down our society. There was a doctor who took a selfie next to a woman's exposed vagina while doing an exam. There was a nurse who took a penis picture of a coma patient. The nurse lost her license not sure about the doctor. What the hell is wrong with people?

I'm so sorry to hear about your experience. A family member recently committed suicide and it also left me shaken up for a while. Do seek help if it causes you to start having dark thoughts yourself.

Well I was also raised in a religious household so I get that there are people that wait for marriage. Nothing wrong with that. So that's another reason I was respectful to this lady's beliefs. I mean my parents have the same beliefs but they also believe people should be able to get properly...
