    Responses To Your Therapist That You Will Probably Never Say

    Dude. Thanks for your dating advice but you’ve been married like 40 years and no matter what bad movies and sitcoms and your kids’ gossip has told you about modern dating, you have no clue how horrific it is out here. You’re a total Ned Flanders. Superdad. Loving husband. And I mean that...

    If I Could I Would..

    Have a female presence in my life. I miss it. It was good balance. A viewpoint I need. Too bad I’m simply unable to be close to anyone at the moment.

    Thanksgiving plans for one

    Thanksgiving up here was three weeks ago. I ordered pizza, smoked a bowl and watched South Park. Alone. It was great. Best day I had in a long time.

    Clonazepam. It actually helped me sleep almost 12 hours. Barely slept all week. That refill was a godsend.

    What Moved You Emotionally Today?

    Great thread idea. I’m reading a book on the communist revolution in China and it’s not my first journey into the subject. Regardless the mind boggling contempt Mao and Stalin have for human life genuinely moved me today. I’m usually detached and Spock-like reading about history. Today their...

    What Made You Angry Today?

    Someone outside kept honking their horn. And honking. And honking. I could feel every honk in my head like a cartoon character whose ear expands and contracts with the sound. I was literally about to throw a small pumpkin off my balcony on to his windshield. But being evicted and homeless will...

    Make it stop!

    I haven’t read much about DBT so I can’t comment, but I do know that CBT is exhausting. It’s a constant vigil. It’s highly-demanding and requires complete commitment. I think it’s such a ball-breaker because it actually does work. Even now at what I can only hope is as close to my worst as...

    ED Ptsd & eating disorder

    Any other men with EDs on here? Yes I developed an ED as a means of control and because being obese is a fear I have after being chubby as a kid and being abused for it. I also blame my satanic mother who points out my weight loss/gain every time we see each other, and my ex wife who has a...

    What is it like for you?

    I feel a need to flee. Literally flight instead of fight. Followed by a sense of hyperreality. I have no idea what else to call it. It’s like I see everything, existence, the universe, human beings, in full colour, full reality. It all seems bizarre and absurd and it f*cking horrifies me. It’s...

    Make it stop!

    I try to use CBT techniques. Meditation. Watch something. Music. Anything to distract. Weed is my medicine. I don’t like booze. Hell, I’ve even masturbated just to get my mind on something else. It’s temp but it may be enough to bring down that feverish thought stream. Wish you luck. I know...
