Sounds like he is really immature. Does he also run around naked in public, since nobody has the right to make him wear clothes? Like srsly.

Yes I know, that was more of a snarky, bitter post, since his beliefs were so obviously just coming from his own sociopathic issues.

Ah I see, sorry for jumping the shark and assuming it was a new relationship, that was my bad. I have been on both sides of the fence, as far as having issues, and trying to bond with people with issues, and I can be a little over-protective at a jump. Sorry about that.

If he can't handle you expressing basic human emotions that are totally reasonable given the situation, then he's not ready for a relationship.

I have "parts" but they are not alters. They are not separate identities, do not cause me any time loss, or anything like that. They are clusters of intense emotion, memories, perceptions and so on, that I sometimes have easy access to, but sometimes not, but I know they exist. And when they are...

My father had his own take on religion. We grew up in an evangelical community. My father's take on religion included such things as 1. Black people are all demonic / the children of Satan 2. Physically abusing women and children is a right every man has, given to him by God 3. God hates women...

I don't think it matters much what words we use. People who have the wisdom to do so, will want to ask questions and understand what we experience, what we feel and what we mean, specifically. They will know that anyone can write anything on the internet, and to take it all with a huge grain...

Do you know that he has been diagnosed with PTSD, or did he just tell you has PTSD? The reason I ask is that sometimes a person with a personality disorder who is malignant, will scapegoat using things they don't have in order to make you feel sorry for them and put up with more games. And they...

Usually by the time I am going in to see a professional, I haven't showered in weeks, don't leave the house, have crazy anxiety, not sleeping very well, etc.. But on the day of the appointment, it's like my brain recognizes that I'm about to have interaction with strangers in public, so I go...

I can relate to a lot of what you shared. I was exactly the same at your age (and yes that includes being turned on by the idea of others being raped, even though I could never actually do such a thing), and also had no memories of any sexual abuse, only physical and emotional abuse. However...

It's good that you did what you needed to do for yourself, for sure. I might change my mind at some point, but for now, I feel that with the details of my own unique situation, I might still be able to make it if I can get certain things under control. I figure regardless, the longer I try, the...

No, I don't feel that my symptoms are severe enough for disability, I would feel guilty about applying to be honest. The reason is that I have very specific triggers that are not common in every day life. I was abused physically, sexually and emotionally as a child, but I don't see that as being...

Yeah I would never recommend that type of job to anyone who has any sort of mental health struggles, really. It really brings out the darker side of humanity with the way it is socially acceptable to treat cashiers in general, and a lot of customers will display inappropriate hostility over...

I am able to function well enough most of the time, that I feel like if I could get certain things under control, then I could hold down a job. When I try to work, things usually go alright at first, but eventually something happens and I have a really bad reaction to it and start losing my...

Okay well possible trigger warning for the rest of this post of mine, because I would like to explain why I think I have PTSD, and why I am frustrated with the treatment methods I have been given so far. (Start Trigger Warning) The reasons I think it is PTSD (or some form of it) is because I...

Thank you for relating. I wasn't sure if there would really be an answer to my frustrations, but it is still nice to not be the only one with the same frustrations. Maybe my last therapist just wasn't a good one.

That was the last therapist I saw, but it was a major disappointment. The way my mind works is that I want a plan, I want to know what I need to do to get better, I want to have goals, etc. This therapist refused any of that. She just wanted me to talk about whatever I wanted every session, and...

Thank you for the info, I appreciate it and will look it up.

Hello. I am a woman in my late 20s who went through a lot traumatic abuse when I was growing up. I can't even remember all of my years but what I do remember is bad. I had my first major breakdown when I was 15, and I was diagnosed with depression, given zoloft and sent home. Since then I have...
