One other reason I don't want to admit it is due to pride. I wouldn't feel like a man if I were to have to go through those programs. I want to enter because I feel like a piece of shit for sitting here and doing nothing while people die. I can't possibly do nothing for the rest of my life. I know I won't take my own life. The thought has never even entered my mind. I'll beat myself up, not physically, for doing things but I would never kill myself.

There's only one woman I have ever loved in all my life. She has been there for me when I most needed it. She ha comforted me and helped me through the probably most difficult times of my life. I confessed my feelings for her 2 weeks ago and got a positive reaction out of her. Last Sunday she started dating my best friend. He told me he was so very sorry and that he would wait until the end of times for my forgiveness and said something about she waiting as well. I haven't spoken to them in like 3-4 days, doc. I have come to terms with the fact I can't have her, but I can't come to forgive them completely nor to even think about seeing their faces without feeling very sad. I was always taught that forgiveness, and not resentment, is the quality of a true man. What do you recommend doc? Please, I'm helpless and clueless!

With the current theory that cognitive behavior could be offset by adult trauma do you think it is possible that perhaps this theory, like so many others, is more than a simple defense mechanism and an excuse for people to garner attention due to Histrionic Personality Disorder or is it so,etching that holds merit?

Follow up, with so many people constantly debating abnormal behavior in order to seem as if their actions are normal do you think the dsm-5 will attempt to defined abnormal behavior in more detail or keep it vague enough for others to abuse?

I t-think that acting as if m-most people with a mental disorder h-have a personality disorder as w-well is reaching a LOT.

Alice, why pretend to help people when we all know nothing will truly help any of us? We are hopeless. Will you bring my parents back? Will you take away my ptsd from them doing drugs and abandoning me before overdosing? Will you take away my rage and sorrow? No. You won't. You won't even help relieve anxiety from other fags on this site. My real question is what makes your life bad enough to come here pretending to offer advice to those who can never be saved? Surely you are suffering and project it by artificially "helping" others with context on an image board behind a false persona with wannabe cute anime pixels. Man, I'm going to go get some coffee. Think about what I said and get back to me if you have the time. I'm expecting the gay, superficial studder with image attached but maybe you'll surprise me.

OCD as a child. Now a 40s fag. I used to spend a lot of time checking doors, fridges, stoves, etc. Back then, my problem, no one to talk to, mother sick with cancer. So, fixed myself. Every morning started fresh.

Adult, past all that. But, noticed in relationships, when they fail (not all some, the ones with abandomment) I go back to OCD. No one can see it, just I'm going mad, delusional even. This shit, when it hits can take 6 months or more out of my life...b4 next girlfriend.

Do what?

*blinks slowly*

Your parents, no. I'm not god.
Your PTSD, absolutely, that can be w-worked through.
Your rage and sorrow? 100%. I'll swallow them both for you and do anything I can to make you feel comfort in this cold world.
Anxiety? Sure, we've got CBT and beta blockers and benzos for that.

I don't pretend to give advice. I give advice, I buy people health insurance, I send them to doctors, I do everything in my power to make their lives better.

So if you want to criticize me, by all means; I'm no saint. But people are not beyond help or redemption.

And I won't stop trying to help them see that.
>>
>>735164771
I guess a better way to phrase it would be, if 9 out of 10 people said something positive about me, I'd probably feel depressed about the 1 guy who said something negative. Is this all people or just me..

>>735165641
Anonymous, I take monthly doses of ketamine to stave off the treatment resistant depression I have. I'm way farther down that hole than you, and I'm still seeking treatment and working towards a happier future.

No one is too far gone.

>>735165669
S-so why do cringy things?
>>
>>735163152

Working on my clinical hours, undergrad, with only have 600 hours left. How do you distant yourself from the issues others are dealing with at the end of the day. In particular children who have been sexually abused? While I understand it is easier to simply leave things at work, dealing with sexually abused children has been seriously intense due to how angry I get over what has happened to them.

Bad enough we have to deal with transference with the children, which can be hard for both parties (especially with social media), but the decompressing after a long day is a bit much. What makes it worse is understanding the text book logic for handling 'leaving things at work' so I subconsciously ignore that logic and the issues can build up at times.

I try exercising, playing vidya or more but some of the cases are intense and leave a lasting impression for days, maybe even weeks. I once thought having empathy was a boon for this profession; lately I think it is more of a curse.

Any thoughts or any of your personal tricks would be helpful OP.

Empathy l-lets you help people more effectively.
It also lets them hurt you more effectively.

I recommend seeking treatment and counseling early and often. Getting ahead of the issue, talking with colleagues, it helps.

Don't lose hope. Its treatable and manageable.

She does a thread in the afternoon too.

Once I lived the life of a millionaire,
Spent all my money, I just did not care.
Took all my friends out for a good time,
Bought bootleg liquor, champagne and wine.

Then I began to fall so low,
Lost all my good friends, I did not have nowhere to go.
I get my hands on a dollar again,
I'm gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins.

'Cause no, no, nobody knows you
When you're down and out.
In your pocket, not one penny,
And as for friends, you don't have any.

When you finally get back up on your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend.
Said it's mighty strange, without a doubt,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.

When you finally get back upon your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your good old long-lost friend.
Said it's mighty strange,
Nobody knows you,
Nobody knows you,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
