I have no purpose and I feel very very very alone and sad.
I once took medicine and it forever screwed up my whole body and caused immense pain for a year or more whatever I don't even know for sure now my body is still very weak after I recovered a lot from taking stomach meds.
I know nobody understands it probably burned through my brain like Alex Jones talks about.
>>
>>38099270

You're not alone anymore. Please take a name, and tell me why you took medication. Depending on what you have, medication can either be very useful and noxious.

Why did you keep taking meds for a year even though they were hurting you?

And relax, you're here now. We might be alone for a long time before the regulars come around, so we can do some good work.
>>
>>38099304
I didn't take them anymore. The pain stayed and was horrible. Also I am still alone I told many people but just get called crazy my family may have believed me I think but I'm not sure.
I don't even remember what it was I took a very small pill with a big effect (if ya know what I mean) and I took it combined with something else very famous too I repres thinking about it. Then I had the same effect with something else which lasted a very long time I also willingly forget what it's called.
I know it's not that helpful but I genuinly can't recall it for now it hurts my head trying to remember this was like 5 years ago maybe you can tell me what it was.
>>
>>38099364
>I didn't take them anymore. The pain stayed and was horrible.

Are you certain the pain was caused by the meds?

OK, you seem very confused and in unusual ways. If you "willingly forget", have you really forgotten?

I'd like you to pick a name for yourself and use it in the namefield; also, I'd like you to make a list of symptoms and reasons why you are "crazy", OK?
>>
>>38099364
>Then I had the same effect with something else which lasted
It'ssome numbifier. One of the most used ones.
>>
>>38099393
It was definately caused by the meds. Trust me I heard years of "it's probably something else" but it was the meds.
I used to take the medicine for just some depression absolutely ridiculous. Now I'm just very lonely and I don't like leaving my house anymore. I may overcome it if I weren't so tired all the time. Also I think I'm kind of sad that I missed out on my 18+s because of this. I already had not much of a childhood being a sperg and very anti-social.
>>

>It was definately caused by the meds. Trust me I heard years of "it's probably something else" but it was the meds.

I trust you, but I don't know what effects you suffered.

Anon, I feel like you're not listening to me. It is important that you answer each of my questions, there's almost like a flow chart in my head about what I'm asking you.

1. can you describe the pain you had?
2. do you have psychological symptoms and if yes which ones?

Also, if you could take a more specific name than "anon", it will help, because it won't work, and many users call themselves anon when they don't feel like taking a name.

Try choosing something that relates to your problems, that way it'll be even more efficient.

been in and out of prison and even had juvenile prison terms. hurt people and commit crimes like robbery and other stuff. be uneducated because i didn't even finish high school

not gonna go into too many details, but just edgy criminal behavior. ive calmed down a lot recently cause i have a kid now but i still have old habits and cant get my life together
>>
>>38099561

OK.

Would you say these crimes are anger-related?

Would you say you feel intense emotions?

Do you have any drug/drink habits or use substances to feel better and would you say there's like a painful hole in you?

>Would you say these crimes are anger-related?
maybe some at the beginning when i was younger but the most of them are money motivated like im just trying to make a living because i was too much of a shit to stay in school. but some of the money motivated ones have gotten so bad that i cant even give details on a public site.
>Would you say you feel intense emotions?
sometimes i get angry. sometimes i feel sad though and disappointed in myself
>Do you have any drug/drink habits or use substances to feel better and would you say there's like a painful hole in you?
i smoke cigarettes and i like to stand on my balcony and smoke a cigarette and think about why my life is like it is. i dunno if that counts. i dont use any hard drugs though but i drink sometimes
>>
>>38099659

OK, all useful information.

I don't need details on your crimes, so don't worry about that. All I need is details on what motivated you and things like that.

Do you think you would have gotten in trouble with the law if you had a regular job that paid well?

What's the main thing you dislike about your current mental state?
>>
>>38099455
1. It's really hard to describe it. Almost like I was poisened. Like I was so tired and kind of dying and it was buurning my body from the inside. It's hard to explain I also lacked any possibility of joy and felt like I was genuinly dead. I didn't feel very conscience only to feel the pain maybe it was because of it.
2. Like I said. I don't leave my house very much anymore. I'm still very tired all the time and I just really want a life but I still feel sort of sick I think it could be psychological for a part I also kind of fantasize a lot. It's gotten kind of bad I mean I know I'm autistic but jesus too much is too much.

I talked to many doctors and psychologists you probably won't know what it is but maybe you do but it would be nice if you could help me with my desire to be alone and giving up one life while severly wanted to live. The infowars red pill may have helped contributed a lot to that.
>>
>Do you think you would have gotten in trouble with the law if you had a regular job that paid well?
yes definitely. especially with my education level i cant make shit at any entry level job. and the school district banned me because of offenses i committed when younger so the entire system fucked me from the beginning.
>What's the main thing you dislike about your current mental state?
Im just worried about my family. i would hate for them to get caught up or me to go to jail and i think i may be going to jail in the near future it sucks. lately im becoming more "dull" and i cant even enjoy stuff i used to enjoy anymore. i cant get away from this and it feels all so grey and depressing
>>
>>38099704

Right off the bat, here's what I'm thinking.

What you describe could be a very type of depression with massive physical effects.

What kind of fantasies do you fantasise about?

As to autism, what would be your symptoms (it's very unlikely that you're an autist; for the time being, think of yourself as normal in that department, we'll see later).

I would strongly advise you to stay off infowars from now on. It may not help you with a bunch of things.
>>
>>38099730
>yes definitely.

Let me rephrase: suppose you had gotten a good education, a degree of your choice, and the job of your choice, would you still have gotten into trouble with the law?

May I ask what kind of offenses you committed to get banned by the school?

Hope may be nearer you than you know. I might be able to provide some help soon, but right now I don't know enough.
>>
>>38099768
>suppose you had gotten a good education, a degree of your choice, and the job of your choice, would you still have gotten into trouble with the law?
yeah i'd be a normal citizen and it'd be all okay
>May I ask what kind of offenses you committed to get banned by the school?
i assaulted students and a teacher
>>
>>38099788
>i assaulted students and a teacher

Can you describe how that happened? What started it, etc.
>>
>>38099744
>What you describe could be a very type of depression with massive physical effects.
Yes I've heard that before but I don't think so and if so you will need to explain to me how that can cause so much pain I don't think it's possible but who knows it definately happens every time I take the meds.
>What kind of fantasies do you fantasise about?
Talking to people. That's it but I'm such a neet and I don't leave my house that it makes me feel very sick. I used to hang around with friends. Now I just sit at home and wait for the day to end. It's much worse than you think I feel horrible.
>As to autism, what would be your symptoms (it's very unlikely that you're an autist; for the time being, think of yourself as normal in that department, we'll see later).
I had no friends in high school and make a fool of myself often. I also tend to stare into a persons soul till they fear for their life but I stopped doing that. I am definately an autist.
>I would strongly advise you to stay off infowars from now on. It may not help you with a bunch of things.
Yeah I already took a break partially. It made me feel much better.
>>
>>38099806
>Can you describe how that happened? What started it, etc.
Well i got into several fights and I attacked a teacher but they just transferred me to a different school in the same district but then i was involved in a big incident with a beating and rape in the school (i didnt have a chance to participate in the rape, i just helped and was the lookout) and i was sent to a juvenile center for 9 months and the entire district banned me so i couldnt re enroll when i got out

what started the fights and the other stuff was just I hung out with the "bad" group of students and former students or street children and just fought over dumb shit like being disrespected or stealing or whatever
>>
>>38099205
i think im developing some kind of mental illness, could i actually or im just seeking attention? do people developing schizophrenia know that they are developing it if they look into it?
>>
>>38099850
>it definately happens every time I take the meds.

It could be an intolerance or an allergy. If it happens when you take the medication, it most likely means it comes from the meds.

> Now I just sit at home and wait for the day to end. It's much worse than you think I feel horrible.

I understand very well.

>I had no friends in high school and make a fool of myself often. I also tend to stare into a persons soul till they fear for their life but I stopped doing that. I am definately an autist.

Not having learned to socialise doesn't make you an autist in the medical sense. It remains to be seen whether you were born that way or merely weren't taught/shown how to interact with other humans. I was raised a savage but I was never an autist. I learned to socialise and I'm doing OK now.

I want you to imagine the following scene: you're sitting in a cafe outside and someone sits in front of you, smiling. What's your reaction, what are your immediate thoughts?
>>
>>38099205

Name: Pygmalion (Not the most accurate name, but first prude I could think of)

Age: 19

Sex: Male

Country of Origin/Residence: USA

Symptoms: Horrid fear of sex/intimacy in general. Its pretty bad. Flirting causes panic-attacks.

Mother: Very motherly? A bit over protective, but I get why she is like that. Always makes sure I'm eating well, and not dying.

Father: Rotates between an asshole and a great guy. Idealistic as hell, and never thinks anything completely through.

Therapy: Nope, I personally think the time spent on me is better spent on people who can't function in society.
>>
>>38099865
>Well i got into several fights and I attacked a teacher

I would like to know why you got into those fights and why you attacked a teacher.

>i was involved in a big incident with a beating and rape

You helped rape someone? You wish you had been a rapist too?
>>
>>38099893

You don't develop mental illnesses by looking into them, no, but you might find symptoms you didn't recognise before, yes.

You aren't seeking attention by having symptoms, and there's nothing wrong with seeking attention if you need attention. This thread is here so you can get my attention. Don't worry about it.

Please take a better name and describe your symptoms if you would.

1.Mr. Roboto
2. 23
3.male
4.low self esteem, socially anxious(few friends, never had a gf.), depressed often.
5.very hard working, intelligent, overbearing at times with very high expectations, but often absent due to work, so no real follow up. Often got very mad at my brother and I when we failed to reach expectations.
6. Suffers from depression and anxiety, consistently on medication and in therapy. Alcoholic smoker. Would often let us do whatever we wanted as kids, while mainly becoming upset at us, only when my mother was.
7. No
>>
>>38099942

Hello you.

Your mother's behaviour might make you more anxious rather than less. Look into it and let me know. If someone asks you if you're OK all the time, you end up wondering if there are reasons not to feel OK and so on and so forth.

In what ways is your father an asshole?

Functioning in society is one thing, but you'll function better if you're well. Everyone deserves to be happy.

NO LEAVE ME ALONE
you have ruined the one place where i can be myself tripfagging keep calm faggot
>>
>>38099961
>I would like to know why you got into those fights and why you attacked a teacher.
Most fights started with either someone (usually me) assuming they got disrespected and acting hard or trying to punk someone out, or sometimes when we would bully someone they would fight back. sometimes it was just a "you were talking shit behind my back?" kind of deal.

the teacher i attacked a teacher was because he was one of those stern teachers who act all "hard" to students like he's in the military or something and he stood up to me and puffed up his chest

>You helped rape someone? You wish you had been a rapist too?
yeah i helped beat up her boyfriend and was the lookout but one of the staff still in the building reported it and like two teachers came up and broke everything up before i could get my chance.

i dont really wish i was the rapist idc either way i was just supposed to go last because we played rock rock scissors on it

Hello everyone

Sorry for my drunk moments yesterday
Im doing well again
Except for the fact that I slept for about 2-3 hours, my head hurts and im still a bit drunk,
As wise men say
>you cant get hungover if you dont stop drinking
I also made some updates to my drawing

Btw the girl turned out to be crazy as fuck
Well she was drunk but not that drunk to let it pass
There was only a few beds so she passed out on a double bed and some time later my friend went to sleep next to her (my very Chad friend)
We were making bets on how long it will take them to fuck.
The problem is that this Chad friend has a gf
At about 3 in the morning we found him sitting in a hallway
When we asked him why is he sitting there he told us that she is fucking psycho and wants to fuck him super bad, even after he told her multiple times that he has a gf and he definetly wont do it. She just didnt let him be so he got out of there.

Other girl, my old classmate came in at 2 in the morning, it was just me and my 1 friend, everyone else was asleep (well atleast we thought, until we found out that our friend was probably fighting for safety of dick at that time)
Other friend was already gone.
So this girl came in and we just drank what was left, mixed a few redbulls with vodka etc.
Also we smoked a SHITLOAD of cigs and when we went for a smoke on the balcony with her we talked about music. Friend asked me If i could find some song for him so I went back inside, found it and when I came back the girl had my friend pinned to the wall while holding his crotch
As I was about to do a 180 and bail the fuck out friend pretty much begged me to stay coz he also has a gf and didnt want any of that shit.
He felt pretty fucking bad for the rest of the night

TL:DR everyone except me got almost raped
>>
>>38100028
>the teacher i attacked a teacher was because he was one of those stern teachers who act all "hard" to students like he's in the military or something and he stood up to me and puffed up his chest

Showing signs of not submitting to you is enough to make you feel slighted to the point where you physically attack? That's a true question, not rhetoric.

>yeah i helped beat up her boyfriend and was the lookout but one of the staff still in the building reported it and like two teachers came up and broke everything up before i could get my chance.

I have to ask because you don't seem to realise. Do you understand how grave rape is and the effects it has on someone? Have you imagined being her in that situation?
>>
>>38099911
I would just nod, smile a little, look down and consider he may be an agent but just consider because it's a crazy world. I am definately autistic though I am just trying to learn not to be.
>>
>>38100074
>When we asked him why is he sitting there he told us that she is fucking psycho and wants to fuck him super bad, even after he told her multiple times that he has a gf and he definetly wont do it. She just didnt let him be so he got out of there.

Chad's secret life. It's not always easy.

That woman sounds histrionic as hell. She should probably come to the thread.

Sound advice: you don't want anything to do with her, friend.
>>
>>38100016
I'll definitely look into it.

He is the type of guy to build you up most of the time, say all sorts of praise, but certain days something about your behavior will annoy him, and he'll tear into you. I hope I'm making sense.

I'm content, I'd much rather suicidal/depressed people get the help they need as quickly.
>>
>>38100075
>Showing signs of not submitting to you is enough to make you feel slighted to the point where you physically attack? That's a true question, not rhetoric.
this happened when i was 15, yeah. i was an edgy talk back to authority kid
>Do you understand how grave rape is and the effects it has on someone? Have you imagined being her in that situation?
yeah of course but i was a dumb 15 year old at the time. also she was a really mean mean and snobby girl. not saying she deserved it but she wasnt a nice person just to let you know
>>
>>38100086

Describe your parents and the sort of fun times you had together when you were a kid.
>>
>>38100107
>but certain days something about your behavior will annoy him, and he'll tear into you. I hope I'm making sense.

Don't worry, I find sense in the craziest shit. Give me examples of when he tears into people.

>I'm content, I'd much rather suicidal/depressed people get the help they need as quickly.

Most people wait a decade before looking for the help they need. Sometimes much more. Sometimes they never get help. No need to wait for that long, friend.
>>
>>38100099
>Chad's secret life. It's not always easy.
Yep, not that much to be jealous about

>Sound advice: you don't want anything to do with her, friend.
You dont have to tell me twice, that shit was crazy

>>38100111
>yeah of course but i was a dumb 15 year old at the time. also she was a really mean mean and snobby girl. not saying she deserved it but she wasnt a nice person just to let you know

>of course

Just so you understand why I ask: there are people in this thread who literally see nothing wrong with rape as long as they get away with it. I had to see whether you had any empathy or not.

Do you feel regret about her getting raped? What did she and her boyfriend do to deserve that treatment, I'm curious.
>>
>>38100146

The only reason you weren't crotch-grabbed was because you were never alone with her. Don't feel bad about it.
>>
>>38100155
Nah, I was alone with her. Im just not the type of guy to get crotch-grabbed.
Not sure if this is supposed to be good or bad
>>
>>38100120
Uh.. you know they're good parents but I just was kind of alone when I could be I did talk to my brother when I was younger a lot and went fishing with my step-dad which was fun but really nothing much to say. I know I lack a lot of details but really it's how it is. I was very anti-social.
To add the details you asked I forgot.

>>
>>38100171
>Not sure if this is supposed to be good or bad

It's good. She tried to impose herself on the others, but not you. She probably thought you stronger than the other ones.

Now, what would you have done if she asked you for the Slav D?

Like, he'll pick into one flaw. And just grind into it. In those moments, everything great and worthy of praise is completely ignored, and its about hounding on the one negative until I feel horrid.

I think it would be awkward making an entire appointment/continued session about something that is so trivial in the grand scheme of things.

Time wouldn't make a difference for most people. How evil was she? Can you tell me?

>her boyfriend snitched me and my friends out to the teacher i assaulted. and he was kind of a snob

That's all? Does this seem like an overreaction to you or not?

Summing up: a teacher stands up to you, you attack him; another student snitches on you (although I imagine this happened in class with many witnesses, so are you even sure it was her boyfriend?).

Besides, if he snitched on you, why punish her for it?

Does this seem fair to you? True question.
>>
>>38100196
>Like, he'll pick into one flaw. And just grind into it. In those moments, everything great and worthy of praise is completely ignored, and its about hounding on the one negative until I feel horrid.

Could you recreate a dialogue based on this?

We're doing it right now. Anything that helps you is worth doing.
>>
>>38100230
I can't remember. Just questions about how I feel I guess but back then I wasn't like this. I wasn't lonely and I guess afraid. Yeah I sound like such a faggot I know but it's not my intention. The reason I think I don't leave my house very often is because I'm really afraid to be judged. I remember a little child talking to her mother and left the place looking eerily at me. I must have given the wrong impression with my psychotic behavior one time. I really just want to be a normie.
>>
>>38100193
Im pretty sure its just because my friends are chads

>Now, what would you have done if she asked you for the Slav D?

get scared and bail? Hell if i know, never really had to consider this option.
Its not like I want to fuck any girl I meet.
Im pretty sure id want to have atleast some form of relationship for some time to do that

No one is a faggot here, except anons who have dicks and want to suck some dicks, and even those are absolutely OK here.

Let's focus on your fear of judgement. Give me some examples. Are you especially scared of girls' judgement?
>>
>>38100264
"Why can't you do X?"
"Everybody else can do X? What is stopping you?"
"I don't want to hear any excuses, you're just lazy. "
So on, and so forth.

It is a lot easier online than in person!
>>
>>38100258
>Time wouldn't make a difference for most people. How evil was she? Can you tell me?
time makes a difference because when i was 15, i didn't regret anything i did because i was an edgelord.

also she wasnt evil she was just a snob.

>Does this seem fair to you? True question.
no but lets be real now. if he wasn't a little bitch who snitches on people then he wouldnt have gotten that treatment. it was extreme yeah, but we were kids.
>>
>>38099974
I pretty much have all the negative and prodromal symptoms of schizophrenia and im a bit paranoid, sometimes i have trouble speaking and paying attention. I also see things when im about to go to sleep and have sleep paralysis quite often but i think thats normal though. I used not to have all of these.
>>
>>38100302
Not really. Just scared of being FEARED!
>>
>>38100303
>It is a lot easier online than in person!

That's why I'm here.

As to your father, what he did is called invalidation. He calls excuses your reasons and decides that you're "lazy", an adjective one should always be very skeptical about, as there's a huge difference between being lazy and being unmotivated and simply not wanting to do something.

Can you give an example of X?
>>
>>38100324
Also to smell bad which is sometimes do a bit.
An example would be girls going "look that guy is staring at.." or when I approach someone to ask to exchange money and they're like "no no uh no" and go away quickly.
>>
>>38100351
But I'm not like that anymore I don't stare or behave that weirdly anymore I'm still very scared of being judged though.
>>
>>38100039
Mostly hang out with a few people or my brother and his friend. I don't feel very close to anyone. I have a good time hanging out, but I often strain myself to talk to them. Their all from high school, and I'm afraid they don't like me. None of us are too successful, with the exception of one, who's finished college and has a job.
>>
>>38100305
>time makes a difference because when i was 15, i didn't regret anything i did because i was an edgelord.

You call it edgelord but it sounds more like you were a psychopath, with severely diminished empathy. I remember being 15 and it would have been impossible for me to rape a woman.

The question is whether you regret it now, but you said you didn't, and that's what I'm curious about.

You don't actually believe that being a snob deserves being raped, right? Or that being a snitch's girlfriend makes you eligible for gangrape?

>no but lets be real now. if he wasn't a little bitch who snitches on people then he wouldnt have gotten that treatment. it was extreme yeah, but we were kids.

Let's, indeed, be real. If you can rape someone, you are definitely not a kid. At 15 you are no child anymore, you know what you're doing. You're justifying the rape of someone because of the behavour of another, that doesn't make sense. Besides, wouldn't you say you were in the wrong to physically assault a teacher anyway? Teachers have to maintain discipline in the classroom, it's not even personal, it's that, if they don't, everyone will walk all over them. It is a context in which, yes, you must submit, just so the class can happen at all.

The way this is is like a small child tries to steal some M'n'Ms from you and you decide to punish him by tying him to a table, sawing off one of his legs and then proceed to rape his mother in front of him. That's a bit much, don't you think? All this because a teacher tried to assess authority over you?

I hope you can admit this went from very wrong to insanely wrong.

Scared of being feared. That's poetry. Maybe that's because you stare at people?

>>38100364

Humans normally stare in a few very selective situations:

>about to fight
>about to have sex
>having an intense argument

Staring is therefore a cause for concern when it comes from a stranger.
>>
>>38100340

Well, it can vary, but the most recent one was regarding a C I got in an Algebra class. I've never been particularly strong with Math. No matter how hard I've tried, it just never clicked. I can maintain a high GPA, no issues with that, but he has been hounding me for Math related grades for as long as I can remember.

Beyond complaining about your C, does he do anything to help you with it? Does he recommend tutors, does he try to help you with maths himself, did he suggest the Khan Academy thing? (Check it out.)

It's one thing to spot a problem, but if spotting it is all he does, that's not cool.

>You don't actually believe that being a snob deserves being raped, right? Or that being a snitch's girlfriend makes you eligible for gangrape?
no. i know that she didnt deserve it, but it happened.

Why was it important to punish the boyfriend and the girl for having snitched?
>>
>>38100456
Rubbing their hands in their legs, looking the mirror, looking at me and cheerfully greeting me, sticking out their tongue etc they really look into me sometimes. Most were frightened shitless though. I'm so sorry to be a monster I like to be a normal human which I am somewhat becoming.

to be honest i cant really tell you now. at the time i just wanted to do it that way

severe anxiety, severe distractibily, feeling strange, withdrawal, isolation, rejection and paranoid thinking, speech and language disturbance. those are what i think i have, i also forgot to say in the previous post that sometimes i start to think about multiple stuff at once

I wonder if what you saw is what they expressed. Hard to tell like that.
>>
>>38100492

They would lean over and stick out their tongue looking at me. Yeah it's what they expressed. I just wish I was a normie I would get laid all the time but no I'm actually a silly virgin because I don't feel like I want to have sex. I'm so silly.

>>38100527
Women crave alpha but also fear crazy I think. Now I just behave normally or I try to.
>>
>>38100510

Those don't have to be related to schizophrenia. Severe depression alone can do all of these.

Feeling strange is possibly derealisation, look it up. It comes from extensive anxiety, your brain switches off and everything feels less real than normal.

Do the test.

i wasnt really interested in her like that. we forced her boyfriend to watch at knifepoint so it was more about him with her being the bonus i guess

>>38100526

So we can agree that he focuses on the negative but does nothing to help. In short, he whines like a bitch but offers no help.

When I criticise someone for something he does badly, I also offer pointers on how to improve, because my intention is to get people to do better, not to fuck with them.

I'm a teacher, I spend my life pointing things out to people, and I never need to be a cunt about it, and I always help.

The logic here is that unless he is going to be helpful, he'd be better off not saying anything about your maths grade. Silence would help you more than his antics, and if what he cares about really is the maths grade, then he would do the more useful thing.

Assume the possibility that he is venting, since he can be a good guy otherwise.

This is weird as hell. Adult women sticking their tongue out at you... Either you were staring and that's their reaction to it, meaning "Fuck you, perv," or... I see nothing else. For you to assume that getting tongues means they're horny, wew, lad, you're off the charts.

Can you describe an interaction where this happened?

Sounds like a way to reduce the gravity of your own acts. Stealing an apple and raping a woman in front of her loved one is not the same. You certainly realise this.

As to necessary crime, I am pretty sure that not assaulting your teacher and not raping this girl would have gotten you a better deal with life. When crime is "necessary", judges call it self-defense. Self-defense is not a crime.

If you have any examples, I'm all ears.

when your denied an education and a proper future due to the fucked up state of child care in this country people have to resort to other things to survive, especially if they have people they need to support. the orphanage i went to after my parents were killed were abusive towards me and my younger sister, so we survived for a couple months literally on the streets before we got picked up again and my uncle "adopted" us

im not gonna lie, as a kid i was a little asshole and did things rashly but im more mature now and all my crimes now are money motivated not just petty gangrape stuff

but its all for my family. if i had a degree and other talents i would but this is all i know how to do and what i grew up around

How come? What would you use to rate crimes? I'd use the suffering of the person affected by the crime. Can you use that to find comparable crime?

>when your denied an education and a proper future due to the fucked up state of child care in this country people have to resort to other things to survive, especially if they have people they need to support.

You're not talking about things like selling drugs and such, which is morally superior to raping people for revenge.

>So you'd say there's some real repressed guilt in you?
Not guilt.

I tried but the process for all the paperwork and stuff i dont have fucked me and i couldnt even apply for those equivalent diploma or trade programs. where i live has a really high unemployment rate and the economy cant afford to help people like me. i sound like im making excuses but ive seriously tried

>>38100976
>I don't think I have a big ego so much as a delicate one.

Correct. Each loss is a threat to your overall value. That happens when you are insecure, which is OK to be, don't worry.

It's all about valuing yourself for who you are rather than what you do. You have likely never been valued on just being a person, but you have been punished for what you did and judged for acts, and as such, acts are your go-to source for validation, which means losing anything hurts.

The best champions lose, everyone does. It's not a sign of failure, it's a sign of perseverance. No victory would be worth it unless it was hard to obtain, and that means you will lose a lot before you win.

The good news is that you now have an easy way to see if you get better: not feeling bad when you lose.

I failed putting on contact lenses the other day and I didn't feel bad. I've learned to value myself on my person and not my acts. Do the same.
>>
>>38100992
>ike a shadow that went away after like a second but i wasnt fully sleeping is that normal?

Sleep paralysis is pretty common and most people report a shadow, yes. I wouldn't automatically assume the schizotypal stuff connects to the sleep paralysis. It may, it may not.

Schizotypal won't turn into schizophrenia, they're not related that way. Schizophrenia is not a personality disorder.

Helping in the rape of that girl was not an act of survival. If anything, it screwed you over. This is why you got banned from school, right? So this act ensured that you would have no education and thus much impoverished chances to get a good job. This isn't the state's fault, Dog. Unlike millions of children, you had access to education and chose to fuck it all up to fuck someone else's life up. Don't blame it all on everyone else; while you have a tough background, this decision was yours. You may not have fucked that girl, but you definitely fucked yourself that day.

>have more of a life i need to think about other options and its so frustrating to realize how little options i have. i was never taught anything legitimate

You closed that door on yourself. It's not too late, however. You're lucky enough to live in the 21st century.

Girls are weird though they just want some alpha to dominate them. Not sure why were still talking about this. Never seen a girl been horny? I mean I'm a virgin but I can tell what I see and not all of them do that it was just an example.
>>
>>38101020
Sure, but when you look at your win/ loss ratio that can be pretty embarassing. In Tekken is one thing, but if it were in something more important - i.e. judo - it would be a bigger blow.

I know that perseverance is very valuable but it's tough when you feel the strength just leave you and the grey settle in.

The idea of valuing yourself for 'who you are' is alien to me. What are you, if not the sum total of your thoughts and actions?
>>
>>38101144
>Girls are weird though they just want some alpha to dominate them.

You seem to have some very skewed knowledge of girls.

>Not sure why were still talking about this.

I'm learning how you think through this conversation, that's why.

> Never seen a girl been horny?

Yes, and sticking their tongues out like that isn't what they do. Not in buses in front of other strangers.

> I mean I'm a virgin but I can tell what I see

That's my point, I'm not sure you can tell what you see.

Staring at people doesn't make you alpha, either. Alpha males in apes, for instance, don't spend their time sperging out at females. I can't shake off the impression that what you describe either doesn't happen at all or happens in a completely different way from what you describe.

How do you explain your virginity?

thanks but those videos won't give me the credentials

I appreciate the advice and yes i am still keeping my eyes open for options for an education and a proper life. i will save up enough money eventually and recolate and start a new life. this is my endgoal but it stills seems so far and unreachable a little more every day
>>
>>38101152
>Sure, but when you look at your win/ loss ratio that can be pretty embarassing.

It shouldn't be. Why should it be? If you're good or bad at something, then that's it. If you stop there, there's nothing wrong with seeing what your current level is. It only becomes a problem if you feel like you deserve better. That's where narcissism comes in. When you're healthy, you accept what your level is and try to progress while keeping a good mood because it's a game meant to have fun. If, like my father and my brother, you're very much invested in saving your ego, you will snap your shit for hours at a fucking video game designed for people to have fun.

>In Tekken is one thing, but if it were in something more important - i.e. judo - it would be a bigger blow.

And how is it more important? It's the same thing: a game. Having to use more of your body doesn't radically change the nature of the game. It may be more primal and thus make you feel even worse, though, I understand, but the idea remains the same.

>The idea of valuing yourself for 'who you are' is alien to me.

It was to me too, until I found out about that problematic.

>What are you, if not the sum total of your thoughts and actions?

You are the person with intentions. Intentions aren't calculated from the sum of thoughts and actions. You are before you think and act.

Here, however, you're only mentioning acts, like losing at Tekken, not thoughts.
>>
>>38101185
I'm just telling you what happens though.
>How do you explain your virginity?
I just don't feel like having sex. I don't feel like doing much at all. My body feels numb except the accid reflux I do feel that.
>That's my point, I'm not sure you can tell what you see.
You are completely wrong. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make though I'm just telling you how it is. I don't keep staring at them I just stare vigurously at them and look away trying not to stare at people. It feels somewhat like a defence mechanism to scare people so they leave me alone. I'm not sure why I do it.

I failed an exam. At least that's what i keep saying, in reality i didn't even tried because i knew i was gonna fail. Now i have either 3 days or 17 to try again, but i still cannot concentrate on the part i hate. My mother lost her job, it was a shitty one and i am actually happy for this, because she was almost wasting her life and time for few hundred euro per month, and i want something better for her. Still, she enjoyed it because she could spend some time between animals, and she actually almost cried when she discovered she was fired, both because she couldn't see this animal again and because now she is jobless for the second time and she is afraid for my future (she said multiple times that her only goal in life is making me happy and giving me the future i want). Now i feel guilty, because i am happy for something she isn't (the job thing) and because i feel i'm betraying her efforts because i'm not doing enough with university. I talked to her about this, but she doesn't know how bad things really are, sometimes i spend all day on bed, hoping the depression pass. Just to add the cherry on top, today my best friend told me he's going to commit suicide in case he cannot find some meaning of his life. I tried to help him the best way i could, but in the end he simply told me it was a matter of some years in the future. Still, i worry about him, a lot,because i cannot help him getting better.

Would you say that's what you did for that guy and his girlfriend? As the child of a raped woman, I can tell you that there might be a child, right now, who's being abused and mistreated because his mother was raped and didn't do what was needed to get better. People often take it out on others, weaker than themselves. Apes do it, humans do it. Maybe your aggression was in part due to this process.

>thanks but those videos won't give me the credentials

I know, but they can give you a base for knowledge and make you like learning. You won't go far if you don't like learning, and I assume you weren't taught to like learning.

Offline, I'm a teacher. The kind that no one would ever assault because I actually listen and give a shit about my students.

Choose a video in the astronomy list, anything that interests you.

Do you ever get erections?

Can you feel sexual pleasure at all?

Do you ever come?

>You are completely wrong.

I can't be wrong on how I am not sure of something. I'm not sure you can tell what goes on, that's a fact. Maybe I'm wrong, but you can't tell me that I'm not sure.

Perhaps what you describe of these women isn't what I imagine when you describe it.

Do you recognise faces easily?

Yes it just makes me depressed and my dick feels numb and it's not that great of an experience as it should be.

Yes

Yes this is probably the case. I honestly don't even think about it but it does happen. Women can be very submissive and it is what it is.

It's alright I guess.

>>38101231
If I'm brutally honest, in this and other areas if I do well then I feel like I'm worth something. If I do poorly then as you said, it undermines my self-worth. Likewise, when I train myself to the point of collapse it'd because there's a voice that says to me when I'm approaching one limit:
>Is this all you're worth?
>Is this the limit of your discipline?
It's the same voice that says:
>THIS is what you're worth
When I drink, or when I eat junk food, or when I do something that I feel guilty about. It should be pretty obvious who that voice is, but you could probably take a stab at the progenitor as well.

>her only goal in life is making me happy and giving me the future i want)

This is not necessarily as positive as it may sound. It puts a lot of pressure on you. She should also focus on herself and work towards her own happiness. Make sure that you don't carry more weight than you should.

> Now i feel guilty, because i am happy for something she isn't (the job thing) and because i feel i'm betraying her efforts because i'm not doing enough with university.

Feel no guilt: you feel happy she got fired because you know she deserves better. That's a good thing.

>sometimes i spend all day on bed, hoping the depression pass.

That will make it worse. Doing things is the way to go. You'll be surprised how doing things helps depression. I recommend working out if you can. Running, walking, lifting weights, anything you choose.

>Just to add the cherry on top, today my best friend told me he's going to commit suicide in case he cannot find some meaning of his life.

He needs to see someone ASAP. Personally, I don't think he means it. People who want to die just kill themselves. If they warn in advance, they often want to see if someone will save them, and if not, they feel worthless and ready to die. If he mentions suicide again, tell him you'll call an ambulance or something so he doesn't die and so yo don't live with the guilt of it.

Yes, but that's not something you'd know from looking at women on a bus. Porno faces notwithstanding.

Just want somewhere to vent so I will make this short. I'd like advice if possible.

Julius, 21, M

I hate my fucking life but I also hate everyone around me. I hate my parents who think I'm a failure who will never amount to anything who berate and ignore me constantly and piss me off by trying to antagonize me. I have people I talk to but even if they would call me a friend I personally wouldn't use that word to describe them - I just happen to talk to them if they're available, but most of the time I want nothing to do with them unless I'm really feeling out of it.

If I had to describe myself, it would be similar to Keima Katsuragi from TWGOK or Takumi from Chaos;head; adjectives used to describe me are often, but not limited to: temperamental, intelligent, focused, blunt, withdrawn.

I seem to have (though I will never truly admit it to myself) some degree of depression and a sort of bipolar low self-esteem (where if I do really well in say a PvP game I feel really good for a little bit, but if I do poorly I feel like absolute shit for a long time until I do well again, with my lows being more intense than my highs)

No I'm not diagnosed with anything and have never been in therapy, fuck that, I can work through this since it isn't that serious; I'd just like advice, please.
>>
>>38101335
>if I do well then I feel like I'm worth something.

I know. I do the same. Here's the trick: when you do well, value yourself for it, because that was the goal; when you don't do well, don't devalue yourself for it. It sounds like cheating but it's the best way. Failing is just temporarily not winning. Remember Charlie Sheen, and win. And don't get AIDS.

Can you identify the voice? Nobody is born with a negative voice in their head, it comes from a real voice in the beginning. Not hard to guess which voices may have talked shit to you, but tell me.

You need to silence that voice. Be free of it.

You should consider the baseball exercise I did with someone else two threads ago. Did you see it?

>He probably isnt such a tattletale anymore lol

I'd laugh but I can't. I do think your empathy is on the weaker side of things. I don't think you understand what you did and the type of damage it has on people. I'm not sure you realise the ordeal it has been for both of them.

>i was thinking about if I ever go legit i should become a cook or something because im really good at cooking but i have no restaurant experience

Excellent! The most important thing in the beginning is to want something. Go for it. You could try some restaurants and work there to learn. If your other activity gives you enough free time, you could even offer to work for free in exchange of experience and learning, then see how it goes. Don't be used, but if they do play fair and you get to see how a kitchen works, and learn things, then that's something you should consider.

Also, man, cooking videos. Loads you can learn online for cooking. Loads. Gordon Ramsey is now your senpai.

I like cooking too and my fiancee was a queen in the kitchen.

I recommend getting immersed in the culinary arts. Watch some Kitchen Nightmare episodes, etc. This is a great job and your family and friends will fucking worship you.

>So man, do i seem like a mentally sane person to you? whats your diagnosis? would you be my friend irl? : )

For now, I think your empathy is on the low side of things, which makes you potentially dangerous, but other than that, you have a good heart, as they say. I'll put that low empathy on your background and street education, so I'm optimistic.

Do this test. I'm predicting a high score on psychopathy, slightly over average on narcissism and fairly over average on machiavellianism.

I may be wrong but it's more fun if I try to predict stuff. Go!

>make sure you don't carry more weight than you should
That's partially the problem, i tend to get really involved with the problem of the people i care. I don't know why and cannot really explain it properly, but when somebody i care is suffering i suffer with them

I'm am actually working out. I either run or do some kind of body weight exercise in the morning. I momentarily feel better, than i lose all motivation again.

Finally, about the whole suicide story. It basically told me that in the future, if he cannot find happiness (as in, getting married and having a families with children) he will feel like he's a waste of time going on. I tried to tell him that he can find meaning in what he has now (family, friend) but it's not what he wand deep down. The only """good""" " things is that if it should happen it will happen 5-6 years in the future, so i can try to help him.

It's pretty serious.

I'd like you to read this:

https://www.helpguide.org/articles/personality-disorders/borderline-personality-disorder.htm

And this:

https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/communication-success/201602/10-signs-narcissistic-parent

If the first feels like you and the second like your parents (since narc parents is usually how you get Borderliner kids, but not always), this may give you insight.

This is the sort of thing you'd learn in therapy. Therapy isn't just about yourself, it's often about the people around you. Don't be scared of it. It takes balls to do it but that's what we're doing right now in our own way.

If she asks that, it means she's worried about your relationship as friends. Perhaps she thinks you don't pay enough attention to her, so this question may really mean, "Do you want to remain friends?"

It's not bait, silly head. Why would she bait you? If you don't respond, she might take her distances from you. Just be natural, not everything is games and tricks.

Empathy. It may also be because you were valued on your use for others rather than your own person. See "people-pleaser syndrome".

>I momentarily feel better, than i lose all motivation again.

Follow up with a nice shower time or bath, then maybe some badass tea.

>as in, getting married and having a families with children) he will feel like he's a waste of time going on. I tried to tell him that he can find meaning in what he has now (family, friend) but it's not what he wand deep down

As a man, he will be able to start a family until very late in his life. So it's fine.

>How is it going nick with the whole diary/keys with your mother?

I still have the key. I wrote a letter back. Two days ago. The instant she read it, she called her evil elder sister, who then called their brother, trying to make it sound like I was talking shit about him talking shit about them. That brother's daughter then called my mother to tell her to leave her father alone. The daughter then called me and I got to know that my mother is now spreading rumors about me. She's trying to convince others that I'm schizophrenic, have a drinking problem, am on medication and have always been (untrue, she's the one with countless pills in her bathroom), and etc. All in an effort to kill my credibility. Thing is, I don't care, since I don't know my extended family and they don't know me either.

You're right about this board being toxic. Small doses and with irony.

The working class is the most important aspect of society. If you can provide for a girl they will want you but that includes proving you are strong enough to protect her. I am a neet though and I really would like to get a job but I don't think I could I always feel tired.
>>
>>38101618

Not bad, self! Good news, your narcissism is low, that's very good. I think it should be possible to get your empathy back on track, but it will require connecting to hurtful feelings and such. It can be done.
>>
>>38101884

>I am a neet though and I really would like to get a job but I don't think I could I always feel tired.
Honestly that could just be boredom. When you have nothing to do at all, it ironically enough takes all your energy and motivation. I know it's like that, when your days are empty, there is no energy, but once you start doing something, it comes back.

As for the being strong enough to protect her. I mean it doesn't hurt to be huge and physically imposing, but many guys have partners even though they aren't very big. So what's the deal there?
>>
>>38101624
>That's just very naive.

Is it naive to think two stereotypes aren't enough to describe millions of people? Is it naive to think you guys have a serious case of confirmation bias based on your own imagined profiles?

The concept is to picture the troubling scenes in your head whilst following the therapist's hand go back and forth. You must keep your eyes open at all times. The idea is to associate troubling memories with new sensations to allow the brain to process them and get them "unstuck".

It's worked with everything except an unexpressible unsolvable months long event of torture in every way of which the 5 year anniversary is October 2017.

Oh yeah. I was 14, he was 24. Thus the law did too.

He's right though. There is a lot of totally pussy whipped guys who are pretty much controlled by their wives. Not that I'm saying that's good. I'd rather be alone than that, but still.

>I think you have been hurt by a woman or something.

Most men have. I'm not in denial about anything. I'm very clear on what was done to me and by whom.

You're trying to change the focus to me because you can't admit that women are just a big unknown to you. It won't work, but I'm not surprised you'd try that.

Go on with your analysis, it could always be fun (and keep in mind most regulars know most of my story already).
>>
>>38102443
Yep. And still they are married, have kids, are reasonably happy. Lots of guys actually don't mind having such wives, because they they don't have to be in control and take care of stuff. They just bring home the money which their wife manages.

I know a number of guys like that.

>>38102401

You need to connect to your anger. It's definitely there, but you put it away so you can still communicate with your parents, which is bullshit. That's the crap F should be taking care of, instead of going after me like a pansy. What use is he if he can't see the real enemies?

Anyway, let's go on.

Actually, no, we can't go on until you're angry and feeling powerful.

Without your anger, you'll just feel bad. You stumped me.

I'm not sure why you don't get this: muscles are obtained through working out, for years. You can have the best DNA ever, if you don't work out, you don't get strong.

>You still show of your dna if you get ripped.

You mean showing off? Do you mind when people "show off"? Does it make you feel bad? Do you compare yourself to others?

Are you upset that I sometimes wear tight T-shirt with short sleeves to show off my arms? Would it make you pissed off to know some women comment on my chiselled forearms?
>>
>>38102474
Well, I have to be able to surprise you some of the time. I'll think about it some more. You're right though, I am pretty disconnected from my anger. He nearly attacked my dad once. I'm always glad that he didn't. Things would be worse now had I not had him to fall back on at a critical juncture after my mother screwed me over.

I'm not so sure, senpai. I think you'd very much like a dominatrix girl who looks all cute and shy in public but loves to tie you up in bed and whip your buttocks every now and then, only to kiss it better afterwards and cuddle up to you once the thrill of dominating a big boy like you is gone.

Just because you say it doesn't make me frustrated at you. I've been in therapy since January, just so you know.

Either go on with your analysis or continue the previous conversation.

I understand you're upet at being confronted on your vision of women, but I wouldn't be helping you if I comforted you in your delusions.
>>
>>38102522

You'd be better off not being able to fall back on either parent. You need true independence. You also need to be angry. It is not normal not to be angry after what they've done.

Exercise for you: picture someone you like as a child, being mistreated by your parents. Feel the anger, let it grow, and when you can, realise you ought to feel the same way for yourself: angry at what they did. F needs to let go of his anger and let it be yours, where it belongs.

I feel pretty alone. I'm just sitting in the dark drinking again during a beautiful summer day. I feel very alone. Nobody ever voluntarily reaches out to me. I always have to vie for attention or else I'll just be alone all the time.

I don't know I don't have any situations like that. People just don't think of me. They always do things without me and forget about me. My cousin and brother went hiking without me this morning and only mentioned it to me after the fact when they knew I was off.
I'm just forgettable or not worthwhile.

Hello again Nik and Dan, nice to see both of you again.
>>
>>38102780
>We both know you are just frustrated about something.

Do we? I don't think you know all that much about me. I also imagine everyone is frustrated about something, that's just one of your many generalisations intended to look like you have incredible acumen about my psychology, while in reality it would apply to 99% of the population.

>You really aren't a good help

Not everyone wants help. Some would rather get a safe zone and never be told difficult truths. Funny how I become bad at helping only when it's time to confront some difficult truths, such as the fact that DNA isn't a good excuse and how hard work actually pays off, and how some people do it, and some people don't. You're bitter, and you're trying to project all these negative qualities on others because it's easier than to see them in yourself.

>good luck with your psychology studies you weirdo.

>>
>>38102853
I'm gonna bite on this one out of curiosity. What would you consider good to be good help? You have some beliefs that aren't completely rational and these are bad for you. Nick tried to tell you what these are and why these are, and while he does have some problems of his own, these do not invalidate what he said.

So tell me, what exactly were you expecting to happen?
>>
>>38102883

Sometimes people assume they bore you, so they don't contact you. Don't assume it always means they don't like you. If that guy didn't want to go out with you, he wouldn't have. Try not to guess how people like you based on facts like that, because it could be anything. If you need to judge on something, use the type of interaction you have with them. If they look like they're having fun with you, then they're having fun with you. Focus on that.

I mean you're a control freak (most people would consider this an insult, but I don't think you will, I know I wouldn't). So why not try controlling your mind? Why not control what you think and how you view yourself? It's gonna be difficult, but it's the first step you need to make if you want to control others. You said your ultimate goal is to have someone completely in your control. For that you first need to control yourself.

Do you agree?

1. Christine
2. 22
3. Female
4. I have been losing and gaining great amounts of weight (15-25 kg) in 1-2 year long periods since I was 13. When I'm gaining weight I sleep most of the day (up to 16 hours sometimes), don't have energy to do anything, don't enjoy anything and am just generally numb and inert. When I'm losing weight I am very energetic and optimistic, but still can't do much because concentrating on anything for more than 20 mins is a problem. Right now I have been on the positive for 3 months and have lost 15 kg. I have just graduated from the University and am currently on a vacation, but I know I will have to get a job and a career. However, I am afraid I'm going to slip into the negative again and lose the job or disappoint my employer, or worse - I will snap earlier than I even get a job in the first place. Right now my best peospective is employment at one of the Big Four audit firms, but they have inhumane working hours and requirements for their employees, I cannot afford to get sloppy.
5. My mother never worked, looks after kids. She's very controlling and strict, needs to know where we are and what we are doing 24/7, controls our grades, spending etc.
6. Father is busy at work, strict but not very involved in raising children.
7. No. Should I try it?
>>
Dropped out of highschool at 15 and was a NEET for 3/4 years. Dad lost his job, had to move to a different state to the middle of the worst place on earth in the most important developmental period of my life when I was already a stunted kid. Did nothing but stay inside, play video games on the internet, watch movies and jack off. Dropped off the face of the earth for a lot of people, and lost contact with what little friends I had in school.

Developed a online friendship with a guy six years older than me. We would play games until 4 in the morning and then talk to each other the next day from 6pm to 4 in the morning again. (sporadically) But it started out great. We shared the same sense of humor and I had never come across someone that I felt so 'in-tune' with. Kept this up for another two to three years.

But the relationship started to strain. He would say nasty things to me on a daily basis. Things a bitchy high school girl would say to you to try shatter your whole belief system. I stopped fighting it eventually and whenever he tried to abuse me I just tried deflate the argument the best I can, and change the subject. It was tiring, and he could never admit he was being hurtful, or ever wrong about something. Whenever I tried to get him to open up so that I could at least try to level with him, he responded with even more bitterness

>>38103017
>Self deprecation is just my sense of humor. Idk I'm always making jokes.

BINGO.

You stop this shit right now, my friend. It's only funny to you.

Here's what it actually does, brace:

It makes people know you think you're shit, and by extention, it makes them shit too. Do understand that other people DON'T share your idea of yourself, they DON'T think you're shit, so when you make self-deprecating jokes, it's cringy at best, and just really fucking sad if not cringy. They'll feel bad for you, and they won't try to cheer you up infinitely.

You need to cut that crap instantly.

>I'm shit!
>But I'm your friend... does that make me worthy of shit people?

You send negative messages without realising just how bad they are to others. That stuff is contagious: people like being around people with good self-esteem so they feel valued too. If you keep telling others you think you are crap, what are they supposed to think you think of them?

You aren't expected to suddenly think you're awesome, but be humble and realise that self-deprecating humor is the greatest vanity of all: assuming you ought to be better than you actually are, or that you ARE better than you are. Nobody can tolerate this crap for very long.

I hope this was helpful.

>>
>>38103123

No, you won't always hate yourself. The first step towards recovery is self-love. Be on your own side. It takes more humility than it seems. Do it.

You don't have to start amazing, but you have to be positive. People can feel your self-hatred, and nobody wants to be around that shit. People don't want to be there as your pseudo-therapists, although they WOULD listen to you if you asked them in an honest manner. Being passive aggressive with self-deprecating jokes will only make them feel bad.

>hehehehe, see, I make fun of myself I FUCKING HATE MYSELF AND WANT TO DIE
>"Uh... OK... Anon kun... I guess... It was nice seeing you."
>YARITE, MATEY, YOU'RE JUST GLAD IT'S TIME TO LEAVE ME ALONE, AIN'T YOU M8"
>"Anon... uh... See you next time OK?"

People like to be together to feel good. You can both receive and provide that. If you make self-deprecating humor, make sure it's done positively, not as a pussy way to ask for help without actually asking. Nobody likes that.

>>38103079
We had a falling out (he deleted me from everything) and didn't talk for about six months. It was an important lesson in being able to have a break from someone, even if you though you didn't do any wrong. After about half a year of no contact, we started talking to eachother again and it was just like old times. In another six months, I finally agreed to travel interstate and stay at his house for a week. Under the guise of having a good time.

And it was a great time. Nothing really ever gave me bad feelings looking back on that experience. It's been years and I still don't feel like i made some major embarrassment of myself in someway, or did something wrong. We just stayed at his and watched movies and did drugs. It was just a great time.

I flew home a week later, beaming from happiness (and possibly from my first mdma experience)
After about a month after that, he just flat out deleted me from everything again. No warning. Now, I'm the kind of person that demands to be told if I'm fucking up, or if someone has a bone with me. Because I want to try and fix that problem. I understand that people don't like to admit they are wrong or that they have done something wrong most of the times, but I'm not like that. I want to open up with people and have them explain why they don't like me.

It really hurt me. Coming from that experience a month ago which was such a great time, and felt like a I really bonded with someone as a brother, it just really hurt me.

I want you to practice the following exercise. Imagine someone you like as a friend. You go to a bar, and they say:

>I'm literally the worst fucking trash. I have no good qualities whatsoever. I'm surprised people even want to associate with me as much as they do.

>Why would I love my worst enemy?

How do you feel and what is your reaction? What are your thoughts?
>>
>>38103208

It's worth trying. It does resemble bipolar quite a bit. What you describe as mania sounds like a normal state. Bipolar can be just normal and "bad", without mania. There are different types.

In any case, you need to see a psychiatrist. If medication zombifies you, change it. I doubt this will happen though. Some medication makes you more hyper to avoid depressive states. It varies a lot and will require seeing a psychiatrist.
>>
>>38103200
>Well that is confusing. Dan seems to believe different.
I'm not saying they aren't real. I'm saying they are magnified greatly by your image of yourself. Which is overwhelmingly (fuck, I love this word! So smooth) negative.

As for the adjectives. They're all negative. Try to tell me 5 things that are good about yourself. For example you are very clearly tenacious.

Wrong again. People actually give a fuck, but if you act like they don't, they will feel insulted and underappreciated. Most people will help. Being able to help is a validating experience and it's not too often that you can help someone.

I hope you see how your own negative attitude brings down everyone around you and yourself included. All you have to do is not be so damn negative. Learn to enjoy the moment. Focus on others, forget yourself, you'll feel better and have more friends.

I know i've only told you strangers a truncated version of this story, but let me reiterate again. The whole experience of getting ghosted by a friend like that. Really hurts. I believe it fucked me up for years. I still have emotional and trust issues to this day,

Now I'm 22, stuck in a dead end fast food job because i was so fucked up by anxiety and depression for the golden years of my life to do anything to fix it. I made efforts to change my lifestyle and become more of a postive person at the start of this year, but fell even further into a spiral of depression, anxiety, drugs and alcohol. Nobody believes in me and even my coddling parents treat me like shit. All I want is for someone to hold me and tell me everything's going to be alright but I can't get that type of experience even from my parents. (they are neurotic as fuck and ignorant, similar story to siblings and relatives) The only bit of character development that I managed in my teens was to try and NOT be like everyone in my family. And be the better man. But it turns out, in the real world, being the better man gets you nowhere.

I don't know where to go from here. I feel old and I'm paranoid that everyone is starting to make fun of me now. I want to go to uni but I couldn't afford it. Thanks for reading.

if you've been avoiding activities as easy as holding 3 envelopes in one hand. combined with a firm belief that your body is really fragile.
most likely you are just extremely unfit and the pains you feel are to a large extent purely physical. it's completely normal to feel pain from weakness. try working out and i'd be surprised if it didnt get better.

I'd say that the fact that you were so deeply hurt is revealing. I would imagine you grew up without everything you needed, emotionally and psychologically, and this makes you crave human interaction on a level that is intense. Everything counts.

>Now I'm 22, stuck in a dead end fast food job because i was so fucked up by anxiety and depression for the golden years of my life to do anything to fix it.

You're young, at 22, all your golden years are ahead of you..

>Nobody believes in me and even my coddling parents treat me like shit.

Ambiguous. Whatever or whoever is toxic to you needs to be put at bay. Don't kiss fire and you won't be burned.

> All I want is for someone to hold me and tell me everything's going to be alright but I can't get that type of experience even from my parents.

You need a woman. It's that simple. Focus on the fact that women also need that.

Bro, you're 22. That's not old. I'm 34 and I don't feel old.

Don't wait on people, call them. Everyone likes to be called and invited. It's validating.

It's easy: don't speak shit about yourself the same way you'd not insult others. Treat yourself like someone else. Don't attack yourself, it's cringy.

ME TIME

I'm gonna make myself some tea. I've never done that before.

I'm a coffee person, but coffee sometimes gives me anxiety attacks, especially cold coffees.

I first tried coffee again during therapy. My therapist always asks if I want something to drink. Originally, I always had the reflex of saying no so as not to bother her, but I realised that was people-pleasing bullshit and I should cut that crap. So I did. Now, when I'm asked, I actually think about what *I* want. So I started asking for a glass of water. Then she offered tea, and I thought, fuck it, let's have tea. I went along and chose red fruit tea. Now I always get red fruit tea for therapy. Sometimes I speak so much I don't finish my tea.

I've always believed that your mental state is determined by your most recent experiences, and your current enviroment. But lately I've been thinking that it might be hereditary. Depression runs in my mothers side of the family. My dad's side of the family always had dysfunctional qualities to it.
>You need a woman. It's that simple. Focus on the fact that women also need that.
I know. But it's so hard to connect with anyone when I'm now overweight, and barely leave the house due to severe anxiety. I've been trying to get back into exercising. Been doing couch to 5k at night and then bike riding 5km to the gym and doing a light exercise there. I still don't know much about lifting, but I'm trying. I want to better myself to feel better, not because of vanity.

Thanks for taking the time to respond to me.

i have a lot of bpd and bulimia symptoms but they are all put under the psychotic depression diagnosis for some reason. they aren't still fully sure what's wrong.

thank you for talking to me. it helped me calm down. i always feel so alone in this world. i got some quetiapine too so i think i'm good for now

Yes, every trait I seem to have is very negative Dan. I don't see myself as having much value beyond my honesty, which can be seen as a detractor to most of society who would rather little white lies be told.

5 good? That is a bit harder than 5 bad.

honest, creative, dedicated, obsessive, rational

>I've always believed that your mental state is determined by your most recent experiences,

And you're wrong. The way you were raised, how your mind evolved between the ages of 0 to 6 and beyond are absolutely fundamental as to how you'll behave as an adult.

The problems you have are unlikely to be genetic, but are definitely given from generation to generation until someone stops that shit.

You're in luck, I used to run a fitness thread on this board. I can give you all the fitness advice you need.

Looking good is a fine motivation, and there's no need to choose: have it all! Health, good looks, strength, etc. It looks good because it's healthy, that's evolution at work.

For weightloss, focus on your diet almost exclusively. The idea of burning your calories through effort is much less efficient than simply eating less. If you do cardio, do it to get better stamina and a stronger heart, not primarily to lose weight. I recommend lifting weights to get in shape, stronger, healthier, and better looking. Controlling your own body is awesome.

More on eating soon.
>>
>>38103623

Calculate the calories you probably need for a day, then eat under that.

You can find that stuff online. It's all about calories in and calories out, everything else is BS.

Fat is just stored energy.

If you need 2000kcal and only eat 1500, then your body will take the 500 remaining into its reserve, your fat. That's how you lose weight. No exercise needed here. Count your calories and write them down, it will do the trick faster than you know.
>>
>>38103703
I wanna get into mealprep so I know exactly how many calories and I'm getting on a daily basis. But I can't cook.

>>
>>38103628
These are all great. You need to realize one thing, you've been through some bad shit, but you're still alive. You might doubt it, but this does make you strong. The average person didn't go through as much shit as you did. If I remember correctly, you mentioned death threats. And that's just one thing I remember. While these experiences fucked you up in a way, for example by destroying your empathy they do give you a good skill set. Just look at the things you mentioned.

So you have the skill set, but you don't think you have much value. Imagine a version of yourself that does have value. What would that version of your psycho self be like? What does the value lie in?

It all sounds like Borderline issues, of which depression and psychotic episodes are part of.

You're very welcome. You're not alone anymore.

Here's an e-mail address you can contact me at:

[email protected]

You can always write if you feel alone and need to talk.

(Anyone else in the thread can use it, by the way.)

I'd recommend reading more about BPD and seeing what you can find in yourself. It will help treating your symptoms as not part of you but as part of problems you have to deal with.

I visited Helsinki back in 2007. I liked it a lot.

>>38103628
>Well that in turn proves I am weak and thus in turn why I am inferior to the general person.

I see no logic in either of these. If you feel pain, that doesn't make you weak, and being in pain doesn't make you inferior. Even being weak doesn't. Pain is an alarm, it tells you something's wrong, whether mental or physical.

I recommend checking on the labels, eventually, you'll know roughly how much is what. Otherwise just weigh the stuff on a balance. Most food items show calories per 100 g, so just weigh 100 g of something and you'll get it.

Google has nutrition facts on food too.

Yes, you count on a daily basis.

You should count everything, yes. Knowing how much you consume will help you a lot.

Use this:

http://www.calculator.net/calorie-calculator.html

Use basal metabolic rate, the bare minimum you need. Let me know.

>>38103989

OK, so let's take 2400 as your number.

This is your cap. You can't eat more than 2400kcal per day. Within that limit, you can eat anything you want.

You'll see for yourself how limiting that can be if you go for chocolate or peanutbutter.

If you need to fill yourself up, think about vegetables (I buy spiced veggies and beans, if I need to be filled the fuck up).

Consider reducing the number of meals you eat. Some people only have one meal a day, a huge one. I used to do this. I'd eat like 1500kcal in one meal at the end of the day. It was great: I felt like I could eat a ton, and I was losing weight at the same time. You just have to be hungry for some of the day.

Record your weight every morning after peepeepoopoo. That way you can see how it's working. If not, lower cals by 200. Then wait a week or so. Weight can vary a lot depending on many things, but in general, it should go down little by little.

Oh yes! You should. It is a huge mental boost. Nowadays, I almost do it more for my mind than my Chadding bod.

Do whatever you like. Depending on how heavy you are, make sure running is safe for your knees.

I can help a lot when it comes to gaining strength through weight lifting, the best method. Forget machines, they do some of the work for you, which means less efficiency.

Definitely keep exercising.

Okay everyone. I'm going to the pub. I won't go overboard.

>>
>>38104175

What's your goal?

>>38104181

If you want to gain weight, sure. You'd just have to eat more calories than 2400. Be sure that this may not be the exact number that works for you. Mine was much lower than predicted by the calculator. For me it was more like 1500 than the 2000 it said.
>>
Hi

How's it going nick?
>>
>>38104208
Well at the outset I suppose I need to ease back into it. The goal will be to bulk up though. Although this time I'm going to run as well. Before I've focused just on weight and ended up no fitter. Or I've got fairly fit but still been overweight. So it seems like there's a lot of moving parts to this. Not sure whether to try and sort the intake first or just lift and build muscle, then cut after that. Neither should preclude cardio, I shouldn't think.
>>
>>38103750
>The average person didn't go through as much shit as you did.
No, they didn't, they went through a lot more than I ever could. I have the problems in life a prince would face, not a normal person, and thus am more pampered than your average individual ever could be. The death threats were only for a short time, then they mostly forgot I exist and just sought to avoid me.

They are not good skills. Honest hurts more people than it helps. Creative means I get over the top creations that freaks everyone out, I got in trouble in school for my creativity on numerous occasions and rarely find someone to this day that won't get upset for my weird designs. Dedicated is good, but I lose all dedication as soon as my creativity is no longer welcome or I am otherwise disturbed. Obsessive means I will scare away others with my clingy nature and in general be too much for anyone to be around. Rational means I see all of this as bad and cannot change it, while also means I am more likely to state my opinion on a matter in a way others cannot handle.

A person of value would not be psycho. They would care about the well-being of others. They would feel warmness when they love. They would be able to handle isolation but also not mind groups. They would not have degenerate fetishes, or at least be able to not be obsessed with them. They would not jump to quick conclusions. They would be healthy, not need to eat a lot. They would be strong enough to work for half a day at the least doing something physical. They would know how to assess others and know how to use tact. They would lack creativity, instead being based in the real world and being able to understand what was being said to them. They wouldn't start panicking because too many people were talking and draw illogical conclusions based on their own string of logic. They would be more patient than I am, they would be able to keep their temper, they would be smarter, they would be less materialistic.

>>38104267

Cutting is a bit of a meme. It's nothing more than reducing your calories. I'm not a big believer in bulking and cutting. As long as your body has any fat, that means you're putting in more energy than your body actually needs, so there's no point in bulking, but that's just my little /fit/ rant.

Cardio usually does interfere with muscle gains, since it uses a lot of energy would otherwise spend on muscle-building. I'm not expert though. I think they recommend doing cardio before you train strength, if you that on the same day. Look it up, I'm not too sure.

Holy shit, Bob, you need to ease up on the ass! (Not really an expression but now it is.)

Indeed, my own self-negativity is quite the problem. My ability to make friends means that quite a large number have tried to unsuccessfully help me. I am very good at despising myself for I legitimately see myself as filled with flaws.

I am not intelligent. What am I intelligent in? I don't have any skills, so I cannot have intelligence, for I have failed to achieve those skills I tried to obtain.

I find it interesting I am lucid, usually the problem is that nobody can understand what I am talking about, resulting in me being unable to communicate with others without lengthy explanations.

Do I have insight? I am barely aware what is going on in reality, often going into my own head and getting confused by what I see in front of me. An imaginary puppet show made it hard to handle people yesterday, I ended up getting into a near argument due to the fact that I didn't want to be sent on a plane to Africa. They were talking about a home they were selling apparently. Also, insightful is the same as aware, you just made more words to make me sound better than I am.

Sometimes I wonder if I am not harsh enough on myself. I am a psychopath. I am a monster to society. I don't treat myself as bad as I should.

>>38104405
I am a klutz actually, I used to go for walks but had to stop as I would end up limping home due to twisting my ankle or tripping over a small curb. I get more injuries in simple daily activities than most people seem to do with sports.

A word to describe me is awkward. I cannot fit in with normal society and this in turn causes a lot of conflicts. Even other robots I feel have more of a chance of blending in by being silent than I do, everything I do is weird and any time I open my mouth it is insanity. If you didn't know me, you would think I was making a joke out of everything as I have zero idea what is going on.

I can't handle pain at all. I get a cold, I fear it will kill me. I get a mosquito bite, I get driven crazy by it.

They mean different things. You can be aware of something without being insightful about it; it'd mean you just know something but have no in-depth understanding of it.

You have both awareness and insights.

What you are is a survivor. Nobody asks wounded people to run perfectly until they are healed.

Fair enough Nick, though I find it a skill most have. I also find I make grammatical errors, if you were to nitpick how I typed I am sure you would find them.

My worst childhood memory? Probably the time my mother snapped at me after I asked her not to get mad at me to the point that she threw our oldest cat against the wall while jumping up and down, yelling "MOTHERFUCKER! MOTHERFUCKER!" over and over. I bolted to my room and blocked her from getting in by pushing myself as close as I could to it. She was bashing against the door and told me that she was going to be the nice one, that my father would be the one to fear. He then came home, grabbed me, and pushed me up against the wall so I was suspended in midair with his hand on my throat. This was a common intimidation tactic of his when I was younger, he wouldn't choke, but he would pin me on the wall. That is about all I remember of the incident, for which I don't even remember what I did to warrant that.

Your mother is fucking insane. What the hell?

>for which I don't even remember what I did to warrant that.

Probably nothing. Holy fuck, Psy, no wonder you had to defend yourself from these people in any way you could, which, I assume, means reducing the emotional impact that such acts had on you. That means severing your inner connections to your emotions, resulting in your actual condition. I've seen this offline.

>not too sure

>my mother was insane
She just was not great at controlling her temper. She had a lot of stress and I was a difficult baby. She always relayed the story that I was the loudest baby in the nursery, crying louder than any of the others to the point that the nurses complained. Anyone would go insane from constant contact with me.

>my father was insane
It was a normal intimidation tactic. It taught me to fear him, kids don't know respect and thus need to learn it through fearing your parents.

>No wonder you had to defend yourself
Funny story, but in first grade I actually hadn't learned to be quiet and cover myself yet. I was too trusting of others still and so would speak about my family. The school overreacted and wanted to investigate my family life. I remember being coached by my parents to get through that, though I don't remember many of the details beyond this info. To an outsider, my words come out as a horrible misinterpretation of what happened and thus people seem to think my parents were worse than they were. As I said, they spoiled me rotten with toys. I always had plenty of toys and video games. I had a giant room filled with them.

>It stinks
Sounds like it is just like a name, but a converted number that others cannot easily guess. We can't have what we had the first thread, a person pretending to be me. I know the fact about my name being retained, I usually bounce between threads and thus end up with a name as I forget to clear the name field, then come back here and forget I don't have a name anymore. Needless to say, an odd juggle.
>>
I was thinking about it, and I really don't have appropriately directed anger. I'm tense all the time and have a quick temper as you've noticed, but I snap at small things, fly off the handle at bus conductors and so on. The anger and management of it is always situationally inappropriate.

>>38105597
>I have had people find grammatical flaws before, those more analytical than myself.

Beware of fake grammatical mistakes.

>She just was not great at controlling her temper. She had a lot of stress and I was a difficult baby.

Sounds like Stockholm Syndrome bullshit. Every baby is a difficult baby, but not every mother is as fucking insane as yours. Don't make excuses for her. She was an adult, she was responsible, or should have been. No excuses.

>She always relayed the story that I was the loudest baby in the nursery, crying louder than any of the others to the point that the nurses complained.

And you believe her? Nurses know what their job is, they don't complain about babies crying, that's just your mother trying to shift the blame from her being a shit mother to you being a bad baby. Saying others said this and that is a way to shift resonsibility. It's transparent to me.

Nobody goes insane from constant contact with their baby, that's just disgusting bullshit from your mother. Holy fuck, Psy, wake up.

>It was a normal intimidation tactic.

That's not fucking normal! Parents don't use intimidation tactics! Holy fuck, what your father did isn't even legal in some countries and it's definitely abuse. I rule children of all ages and I've never had to do anything like this. Your parents were abusive as fuck and are worse than war criminals.

>It taught me to fear him, kids don't know respect

That's the problem, such violence broke your trust in them, and so fear is all that's left. You were made to fear the very people your life depended on, what a fucking torture to impose on a child.

Kids know respect. What you have for your parents isn't respect, it's fear. You fear what is dangerous.

Respect isn't fear. I rule my students not through fear but trust and credit. They know I deserve to have authority over them because I know my shit and I care for them. The worst thing that can come from me to them is this:

"You have disappointed me."

There's a difference between not knowing respect and being a kid. I assume you were not allowed to be a child, much the same as I wasn't and always felt like a small adult compared to other kids who messed around and seemed undisciplined. I was never allowed being a free kid who had fun.

>The school overreacted and wanted to investigate my family life.

They did NOT overreact. Please fucking wake up because I'm going to get increasingly upset at this. They had every reason to investigate your family: you were being abused brutally by two absolutely fucked up monsters. WAKE UP!

This isn't normal in the real world! Wake up!

> I remember being coached by my parents to get through that, though I don't remember many of the details beyond this info.

They manipulated you. Fucking pieces of shit. I hate your parents.

>To an outsider, my words come out as a horrible misinterpretation of what happened and thus people seem to think my parents were worse than they were.

No, your parents are absolutely horrible people.

> As I said, they spoiled me rotten with toys.

Fucking hell, THAT DOESN'T FUCKING COUNT! It's just fucking toys. Do you know how easy it is to buy someone toys? Fucking hell. My father bought us shit and it was always to ease his own conscience. He'd think, "I buy them gifts, that's love!" and if we dared say that buying gifts couldn't buy people's love, he'd get furious. That showed his gifts were bullshit. It was a way to buy consent.

Don't buy the bullshit. Real love doesn't need to be proven.

Nick a symtom i forgot about is that apparently i am a very "cold" person or at least that's what my friends and family say. I never thought it was a great deal but they usually say i never express any emotion or make any facial expressions like smiling or laughing. Even some people have said that i look depressing and empty.

Because of X, I'm especially interested in anger. I wonder if you could control it better if you could allocate the right causes to it.

If you don't feel anger when thinking about your parents, something's fucky.

Allow anger where it belongs, and remove it from where it doesn't belong. The bus driver didn't violate you, leave him alone. Some other cunt can't say as much, hate her.

I had a student whose family was from Naples and they spoke that dialect.

My aunt may not even speak Italian. She's younger than my father, so that means she came around before she was 5, she may have been born here too. She uses French all right from what I saw.

Perhaps it is from being in it, but I don't really see such behavior as insane. Sure, my mother wasn't the most motherly, but she she did her job as enforcement around the household. I messed up, I met the consequences.

>And you believe her?
Why would my mother lie to me? She was a brutally honest individual, I can't imagine her lying on this one individual thing. She used to talk about how I would kick the door every night while crying and screaming until I tired myself out.

See, I just believe you are seeing the posts I am making here, which focus on the extreme. There probably were many uneventful days that I don't remember because they were exactly that.

>Parents don't use intimidation tactics
This was before the days spanking was seen as abuse. Kids are entitled little pieces of trash that seek to walk over you if you let them. You need to hold them in line, make them know your authority using whatever means you have at your disposal. Later you can transition that fear to respect, but first comes fear.

>Violence broke your trust in them
As said, fear is a very necessary part to any childhood. A child not in fear will be a spoiled brat that does whatever they want. They need to know the parents word is law and that is done through means of force.

Kids don't know respect. How did they learn that? I don't have fear now, I simply have respect.

See, the thing is when the kid could care less if they disappointed the adults and just did their own thing. Then you have zero control over them.
>>
>>38106020

I don't understand how this stuff functions from the inside, I'm taking shots in the dark here.

All I can imagine is you focusing on why you should actually be angry at your parents and opening up the gates for that. Try to consciously connect.

Your emotions happen for reasons, and if they're repressed about certain people, it's not for nothing. You have to undo that defense mechanism. You no longer have to feel like your parents are OK people. You're safe now.

Please stop. This is no way to treat a child, or a cat. Period.

>Why would my mother lie to me?

Ask her. She told you your father was the mean one, while being clearly a monster herself. That was a lie too and you apparently believe it right now. Had she been as strong as your father, she would have done the same if not worse.

>how I would kick the door every night while crying and screaming until I tired myself out.

With parents like these, no wonder you reacted. Don't be fooled by this bullshit. Had you been raised in a normal family, you would have been OK.

>See, I just believe you are seeing the posts I am making here, which focus on the extreme. There probably were many uneventful days that I don't remember because they were exactly that.

It makes no difference. Your parents were capable of doing these things, that's enough to know something was very, very wrong.

>Kids are entitled little pieces of trash that seek to walk over you if you let them.

Much like SS victims, you have adopted your parents' beliefs. It's crazy. I work with kids aged 3 to 20, they are not pieces of trash. They will test limits, yes, but if you're worthy of respect, you will get it. No violence necessary. Violence, brute force, is what people who shouldn't be parents use when they fail at parenting. Your kid isn't an enemy. Don't be a sick fuck like your parents, this isn't how you raise children. I deal with kids that aren't even mine, and I never show them such scorn and hate.
>>
>>38106093
>Later you can transition that fear to respect, but first comes fear.

Do you realise that a kid who both loves you and trusts you will do absolutely everything you ask because he knows you care for him?

No child has any reason to trust a parent who is a threat to his physical integrity. It forces the child to go fucking crazy over the idea that his protectors are also threats to him. It's fucked up and no child can cope with this shit. Why would you impose this shit on any child? Are you nuts?

>As said, fear is a very necessary part to any childhood.

Says who? It's not necessary to fear your parents. Most kids grow up without that and they do far better than you or me. Look at yourself, do you think your education was a success? Don't you feel fucked and impaired? But somehow you think you were raised brilliantly? Connect: you're the result of the shit parenting you received and now you have to deal with it to get better. Why would you impose this utter shite on any child? Don't you think parents are supposed to help their kids grow?

>>38105890
>Never allowed to be a free kid who had fun
I had toys anon and could play games on the computer. I also would terrify my cats from playing with them, I remember my mother said if she found out I had an animal she would report me.

>Please fucking wake up
Just because of some isolated incidents? You didn't hear about the fact that they took me to a couple concerts. You didn't hear about the fact that I carpool with my father every day, he gives me rides. You didn't hear about the fact that he talks to me for a few minutes every day and we hug each other when I leave. You didn't see the fact that he wants to involve me in his hobbies, but I am heavily bored with what he does so that we have little in common.

>They manipulated you
They explained to me what manipulation is as I used to fear this as well. Manipulation is when you convince someone of something that isn't true for the purposes of getting something from them. I was just a kid, I had nothing to give, and they paid the bills. There is no way they could manipulate me. There was no benefit to doing such.

>Absolutely horrible people
They simply enforced the rules when they needed to. When I didn't act up, they didn't do this. I had days where nothing would happen Nick.

>Buying toys isn't love
That is where you are wrong Nick. It isn't directly, but your father probably worked for his money. That money he had to sacrifice forty hours to make. That money mostly went to you. He was slaving away his own existence so you could have a decent childhood. He paid attention and got you gifts you cared about, he listened to your opinion enough so you could be happy. My father always hated my mother for being a selfish ingrate that couldn't see this.

Exactly. He didn't prove it, he just did it because he cared about me. He did it even when my mother was cheating on him, paying for her as well and cucking himself, simply because he wanted me to have a stable life.
>>
I don't have friends, offline or online. By this word I mean someone I talk to regularly and not because I/they have to, so you see my standards are quite low. I'm in my early twenties, slightly older than average on this board, not in uni or school, so I think it's going to be quite impossible for me to make friends at this stage in life. I have a job though, but I don't think you can be friends with people from work, at least not if you are me.

>just get a hobby
I don't have any. Anime and vidya don't interest me. Not sure if you can make friends through normalfag hobbies (not that I have any), I suspect normalfags just want normalfag friends (they already have a ton anyway).

>you sound boring as fuck
Because that's what I am.

>get a gf, gf will be your best friend
That's what I think too. I kind of have one already, she is a very nice fembot, but I'm afraid I'm going to bore the fuck out of her eventually with the gaping emptiness of my life, having other friends and interests would really help me here.

>don't worry about it, just do stuff with her, it will not only help you with her, but also make you a better person
I know I should try. This is so hard for me, so far we only watch movies or anime together once or twice a week.

>A child not in fear will be a spoiled brat that does whatever they want.

In other words, a child will be a child. Children need to be children. You are there to give limits, but you will never need to fucking hold a child by the throat. The fuck.

By not being a fucking retard and actually deserving authority, I can ask anything of any child or teenager of any age. Your parents didn't deserve an obedient child, they deserves buckshots to the face.

>They need to know the parents word is law and that is done through means of force.

I hope you realise what a bitch you are by adopting the rules of your enemies. It's literally as though your soul got cucked by people who wanted your pain and suffering to alleviate theirs. Fight back, in your mind.

>Kids don't know respect. How did they learn that? I don't have fear now, I simply have respect.

Look, the kids who show the least respect are those who are shown the least respect at home. Every time. Every kid who doesn't fear blows is the kid who receives blows at home. Every fucking time. They're treated like shit, they feel like shit, they don't even fear punishment. Your method is shit.

>I don't have fear now, I simply have respect.

You were never taught what respect was. Respect is not when you dislike someone or something, quite the opposite. The respect my children give me comes from admiration and the desire to live up to my expectations. When it comes to confrontation, raising my voice and talking tough is all I need, and I never need to be a cunt about it.

>See, the thing is when the kid could care less if they disappointed the adults and just did their own thing.

Only when the adults are clowns. I've seen it many times. 99% of the time, when an adult gets no respect, it's because he deserves none to begin with.

I've mastered entire classrooms of literal thugs.

So? So did I. It was easier for our parents to buy us toys and video games than to spend time with us. They just didn't like to spend time with us. Don't be a fool: toys and games were given to you so you'd stay off their backs.

>I also would terrify my cats from playing with them, I remember my mother said if she found out I had an animal she would report me.

Report you to who? Do you think a mother does that shit? Do you think parents report their kids? Boy, I wish you could experience what a real family feels like. I wish myself the same, but I know in theory how it works. It's not what you imagine.

Wow, so fucking what? You rape a woman but it's OK because you buy her a salad afterwards? And since when is going to concerts such a fucking ordeal for an adult? There are no excuses.

>You didn't hear about the fact that he talks to me for a few minutes every day and we hug each other when I leave.

And? It's fucking nothing. The brutality of your parents show they're horribly dysfunctional and the results in you are obvious. Don't be grateful for the impairment in your life. They're not here trying to fix their mistakes. You'll have to do that on your own.

>You didn't see the fact that he wants to involve me in his hobbies, but I am heavily bored with what he does so that we have little in common.

Would you REALLY act like your parents with your own children? Tell me that.

>>38106381
>I was just a kid, I had nothing to give, and they paid the bills.

They chose to have you. No child is to be made responsible for his own fucking existence. Don't fall for that trick either. You didn't ask to exist, they chose for you.

>There is no way they could manipulate me.

They told you what to say during the investigation so they would be spared what they deserved. You should have been removed from that looney house, but through manipulation, you didn't escape. Even now you don't see the obvious. Wake the fuck up.

>>38106195
>no way to treat a child, or a cat
My mother always said I imagined her throwing the cat though. It could possibly not be true and just be due to the panic I was in. She loved her animals to do that to them, it is why it stood out so much.

>My father was the mean one
My mother was the mean one. I can admit she does love to make excuses for everything. She would scream at me due to the car being too hot. She would threaten to call the cops in my teens, it was up to my father to prevent me from getting arrested or thrown on the streets. If there was abuse, it came from my mother. She definitely was abusive later on. That is why I don't talk to her often, she lives on the opposite side of the country. She left in the dead of night when I was visiting my father, saying that my toys were left and there was a key left hidden in a certain spot. He grabbed as much as he could fit in the car, then threw the key away.

>In a normal family, you would have been OK
Hard to believe with my perspective Nick. I feel I just would have been rejected even more for not being like them. I feel like I am as far from your average person as you can get.

>Capable of doing these things
If the kid is a difficult little brat, you do what you need to. Those that don't end up with kids that end up on Jerry Springer or as some transvestite trap.

>Never show them such scorn and hate
So how do you make someone earn respect for you if you don't use a brutal display of force? People have an alpha dog mentality, if they think they can get away with something and there be little consequences, they will do more. The foot needs to be put down immediately and strongly so to stamp out all future acts before they happen.
>>
>>38106381
>They simply enforced the rules when they needed to. When I didn't act up, they didn't do this. I had days where nothing would happen Nick.

I hope you can smell your own bullshit, because it's steaming. It's like you're robotically repeating what you learned from them. No, they weren't just enforcing rules. They chose the rules, they chose to physically abuse you, and believe me, it's abuse, brutal abuse. Nobody normal does this to a child as punishment. Like I said, you can have a kid do anything by being a good parent. Only pieces of shit do what your parents did. They blamed you for their brutality and to this day you believe them. Wake. The. Fuck. Up.

You must absolutely wake the fuck up or you will end up just like them. You know it.

>That is where you are wrong Nick. It isn't directly, but your father probably worked for his money. That money he had to sacrifice forty hours to make.

Bullshit rhetoric, my parents used the same. It's all bullshit, anon. When you love someone, you don't try to guilt them over the job YOU chose and the family YOU chose to have. What kind of sick fuck does that?

Toys aren't that expensive, either.

>That money mostly went to you.

Oh no it did not. My parents always bought themselves the latest tech gadgets they could think of. New cars, bikes, etc. He wasn't "slaving away" any more than anyone else, with or without kids. I didn't have a decent childhood nor did you. Stop kidding yourself. This is your first step to recovery, if you even want it. You are free to continue their legacy of pain and inflict the same shit on your own kids, and on and on.

>He paid attention and got you gifts you cared about

Please notice you're talking out of your ass about a family you know nothing of. Once that bullshit is understood, reconsider your position.

My parents never knew what to buy us and wanted to abolish gifts for Christmas.

Stockholm Syndrome is up your ass, very, very deeply. I'm upset because you don't see it and want to inflict the same on other innocent people as it was imposed on you.
>>
>>38106288
>Will do absolutely anything
I would do anything for my parents growing up. My father trained me quite a bit, making sure that if he said to get down on the ground that I did such because there was most likely a gunman trying to shoot me. He expected instant reactions.

I coped and you see that I am handling life, at least in my own way.

>Do you think your education was a success
Yes, I do. Anything good about me can be applied directly to my parents. Anything bad I should have learned from where they left off and applied correctly.

I am different from the average person, but that is my own doing. My parents did help me grow, it is because of them I have a job at all and have the capacity to shitpost on 4chan. I just am incompetent and difficult to teach to the point I could not learn more. You can't teach a brick wall too much Nick, that isn't the fault of the one making the effort.

That is so fucking fucked up. Goddam. Years of this shit. That's how you get C-PTSD.

>Hard to believe with my perspective Nick. I feel I just would have been rejected even more for not being like them. I feel like I am as far from your average person as you can get.

Psy, listen: if you are different now it is BECAUSE your parents raised you in fear and pain. You weren't raised, you were abused in every fucking possible way short of explicitly sexual ones, and that remains to be confirmed.

Why do you KEEP acting like it's your fault? Do you have any idea how being raised by such fuckheads affects a growing baby? Apparently not.

>If the kid is a difficult little brat, you do what you need to.

How do you think kids become brats? Again, I work with HUNDREDS of kids of all ages and I see them grow up. No kid is a brat unless he was raised to be one, and contrary to what you think, it isn't the lack of punishment that makes a kid a brat. Kids who have loving parents are virtually always good kids who are loving and caring, and that extends to everyone around them.

Again, look at yourself and evaluate your parents' success. You can't because you'll assume it's all your fault. Isn't that so?
>>
>>38106620
>So how do you make someone earn respect for you if you don't use a brutal display of force?

How do you think I do? Do you think I've ever had to hit a student? Do you not realise that if I obtained "respect" that way, I would have lost all respect? Once you're feared more than respected, you've lost all credit. In different contexts, this means you're "respected" until you're fucking stabbed to death by everyone.

If you want to learn about how to have real authority through real respect, I'm your man. I do this hours a day every day of the week.

>>38106422
>Children need to be children.
And I was, I was permitted to play. I just also was taught to not do something wrong like break a chair or leave my room a mess. Why would a kid naturally just listen to their parent? I always have been the argumentative type.

>Fight back, in your mind.
How can I do that anon? I still have contact with my father on a daily basis. I also don't see them as my enemies but my teachers in life. How else should they have taught me Nick?

>Every kid who doesn't fear blows is the kid who receives blows at home
That doesn't make sense. You need to feel a blow to know what a blow is like. Those that don't will just think they will just get a simple time-out or something coddling that they could care less about.

>You were never taught what respect was
I had it regardless. I respect my father, I try to live up to his expectations. He does not use intimation on me any more but instead just raises his voice.

>How much experience do you actually have with children?
Well, I live in a household with my cousins. They both have children, one has three and the other has two. Right now most are babies, but the one with three has one a bit older. He destroys things in the house, screams at the top of his lungs, and will brag about how because he has black heritage and I do not he is superior due to all the greek gods being black.

>I am different from the average person, but that is my own doing.

Sure, you raised yourself, right? No, you fucking didn't. Why is this shit so hard to understand, you're not retarded.

Had you been raised correctly, you'd not have all these problems and you'd not have emotionally impaired issues.

>Toys and games were given to you so you'd stay off their backs
What is wrong with this? Who wants a kid that will constantly annoy them? It is good to give them some distractions so they will leave you alone. Children are to be seen, not heard.

>Report you to who
The local animal abuse shelter. My mother cares about animals as well and she doesn't want me to hurt them. Seeing my mindset with people, you can imagine that is a good thing.

Does a real family eat graham crackers and play Applejack? That sounds rather pressuring, like you wouldn't have a free moment to yourself. The grass isn't greener on the other side Nick.

I really love music but I think I'm in love more with the idea of writing a great song than the actual process of writing a song. This naturally gets in the way of the creative process. I only started singing because I wanted to write songs.


Should I give up on it? I don't think I'm coming from the correct place when it comes to being creative.
>>
>>38106960
>Why would a kid naturally just listen to their parent?

Because good parents give good advice and kids know when it's good advice and when it's shit. You wouldn't have been argumentative if they told you good stuff. Besides, "argumentative" probably meant you didn't just instantly suck cock upon being told anything. Fuck that shit.

>How can I do that anon? I still have contact with my father on a daily basis. I also don't see them as my enemies but my teachers in life. How else should they have taught me Nick?

Are you beginning to wake up or do you really want to stay fucked forever? You and Facet both repress your true emotions just so you can tolerate being cucked like little bitches by your own parents. WAKE THE FUCK UP.

You're seriously pissing me off with this shit.

>That doesn't make sense. You need to feel a blow to know what a blow is like.

Yes, exactly, and once you realise it isn't all that painful, you no longer give a fuck, which is why what I said makes perfect sense, just not to you.

Fear of punishment works better than the actual punishment. Ask any teacher. Once the punishment is dealt, it loses its aura and becomes fucking useless. Again: kids who know physical violence are much harder to scare with punishments because they aren't scared of shit. How do you fear detention when you get whipped and sodomised at home? It's a fucking joke to them.

Don't trust your insights on children psychology, just don't.

>I had it regardless. I respect my father, I try to live up to his expectations. He does not use intimation on me any more but instead just raises his voice.

You're a fucking adult and he raises his voice at you still? What the fuck is this? Are you 15?

Oh my fucking God, I am not done raging at you. The difference between your father and me is that I rage because I care. You're doing everything you can to excuse him and blame yourself, just as they did. It's driving me insane.

Are you fucking retarded? If you don't WANT kids, don't GET kids. Normal parents aren't annoyed at their kids, they like them, love them. You don't have to spend all your time with them, you can enjoy being in the same room doing different things, you know? Being a parent doesn't have to be a fucking endless chore, which is surely how your parents portrayed parenthood to you.

> It is good to give them some distractions so they will leave you alone. Children are to be seen, not heard.

Children need to talk. If you don't like it, don't get kids. Unless you want to foster mental illness in your own kids. Fuck's sake, man.

>My mother cares about animals as well and she doesn't want me to hurt them. Seeing my mindset with people, you can imagine that is a good thing.

Coming from a cat abuser, that's funny. Your mother cares about animals until she hurls one against walls. What a fucking joke. Yet you think her word means anything. Please step out of the cucked zone. Take your balls back. Forget everything you were taught about respect and discipline: you were fooled and abused and like a shell-shocked bitch you still believe everything.

>Does a real family eat graham crackers and play Applejack? That sounds rather pressuring, like you wouldn't have a free moment to yourself. The grass isn't greener on the other side Nick.

It is. I've lived in another family now and then, and it was greener. Just feeling good with a group of people when you normally don't is absolutely amazing.

And still you don't connect with mental issues with your family.

I feel like I should add to this what with all the talk about pain, punishment etc: you're right that detention is likely to seem like small potatoes (though not to all abused kids - there are your frequently mentioned people pleasers) but there's also the prospect of what I'm going to call 'phantom power' because I don't know if there's a proper name for it. I told you I saw my abuser once and it felt like I was seven again. Though at that point I could have done him serious damage since I was in good shape, I hid from him. I felt as though I was 7 again. It was shit. This is not uncommon; if a person is intimidated and the other person is inside their head then the facts just cease to matter. You could have a .45 aimed squarely at their chest and they'd still make you cower and drop the gun. I don't fully understand it, but it's very significant.
>>
>>38107136

But it's very true. I can't stand seeing you fuckers worship monsters and act like kittens towards people who abused you, while at the same time you treat others like shit for nothing.

Next time you get angry at a bus driver or someone who doesn't deserve it, please feel like a fucking coward because you know who you should really hate but don't have the balls to hate.

Motherfuckers.

>You rape a woman but it's OK because you buy her a salad afterwards?
Actually that doesn't sound wrong at all. You must have cared about her to give her some food and care about her well being. It shows you got consumed in a moment of passion, but realized what you did and make it up to her by proving her love. As for being an ordeal, do you realize that a concert is multiple hours? He had to drive there, through all the traffic, and wait hours for it to start on his bad feet. He shouldn't even be standing as much as he would for my happiness, for a type of music he doesn't even like but bears so I can enjoy it.

>It's fucking nothing.
What is something then Nick? I am not sure I can differ between what has meaning or not in that case. They couldn't fix my mistakes because I was a difficult child, they did the best they could while having zero idea how to parent due to me being their first and only child. My father's father walked out on him when he was three, so he had to learn how to parent on his own. As you see, he didn't repeat his father's mistake, he stayed around in my life.

>Real fathers want to be involved in their kids' hobbies
Well, he did play a video game with me one time, but it caused him sickness and so he couldn't do it anymore. He lets me listen to my music, that is just for me. He financed me to have hobbies as well.

>Would you REALLY act like your parents with your own children?
I have zero idea, I have trouble being authority or demanding respect, so I think I would be more the cuck parent that breaks into tears because his kids can't understand him, then gets his grandparents to discipline them. Needless to say, it is quite beneficial that I will never have kids. I expect to die alone.

I'll pay attention to you with a question that I think you might be best suited to answer:

>>38106611
>No child is responsible for his own fucking existence.
No, but you should be grateful every day that your parents decided to have you. My mother had two abortions prior and only avoided aborting me because she didn't want to go through the torture again, it gave her too much stomach sicknesses.

>They told you what to say during the investigation so they would be spared what they deserved
They did it because they knew I was good at spinning tall tales and riling up everyone. Plus, if I went with another family I just would have felt even more rejected. I am a reject to society at large, so why would a family that didn't even give birth to me want me? If anything, I would have just grown up in a foster home. There I wouldn't have been given all I would have asked for. There I wouldn't have been guided to have a job. My mother got a new husband, I lived with them for a few months. He screamed at me for having too loud footsteps, for wasting the electricity bill with 100 degree temperatures on AC, and for using the internet. He complained that I smelled horrible and that I must be retarded if I have zero idea how to take a proper bath. I was brought to work with him as a tire repair assistant, he would send me to the back as he was too embarrassed to have me up front. I couldn't do anything right, he even told me when I got injured on the job after a jack fell on my foot and injured it that had he not been married to my mother that he would have fired me long ago. This is a normal person Nick. This is what the alternative life looked like.

Ah, assuming you're talking about the root? Yes, it's meant to calm you down but it's done nothing noticable for me. Do you have validolium in the U.K.? That helps me a lot in the calm down, it effects and targets the heart directly so it's great for anxiety and acts fairly fast.

If you're looking to sleep at night I'd reccomend Benadryl very strongly. It's over the counter and non addictive. Also Neuropan is great to calm you down as well. Let me know if I should go on.
Thanks for paying attention to me

If it's any consolation to you Nick (and I know it won't be) my therapists have all said that I ought to be angry with them, and they'd deserve it. I just can't quite believe it. I wonder if I'm lying sometimes, or blowing things up out of proportion. Maybe some of them are false memories. After all, my brother doesn't think it's C-PTSD level stuff and he got a 1st class psych degree. If nothing else, now that it's no longer necessary they still want to maintain contact. I don't give them any money or anything, so they must value my presence in some way. Oddly, it's only when I'm in a really good mood that I feel angry with them.

>>38106742
I don't see how it is bullshit.

Toys are expensive, they add up. I had a giant pile every Christmas, at least up until the year my mother screamed at me and yelled Christmas is dead. My father often would give me $300 gifts such as an expensive set of headphones I wanted. When I got older, he one year even bought a relatively high end computer system for close to $1000 dollars, a custom build that he devoted his time to build. He has put in the effort to set up any computer I bought, spending hours fighting with components that didn't want to fit. Does that sound like someone that doesn't love their child?

>Bought themselves the latest tech gadgets
Well, that is entirely fair Nick. No parent should need to devote all of their money to their child without some toy for themselves. He would go out and buy a harley or a corvette, but that doesn't mean he didn't love me. He just liked his own toys and could afford them. He would often sell guns he loved so a bill could get paid. Does that sound like something someone that doesn't love someone would do?

>Accept it, for it is the fucking truth
Perhaps my mother did lie to me. As I said, if any abused me it was my mother.

>That is so fucking fucked up
Well, I do also recall the time she saw me as she was walking past, dropped something on the ground, and flipped out at me because I distracted her. As for the police, now that I think about it, that only happened because I became confrontational later on and would box her in a room to demand to know why she would do the things she would do. She would hit herself and pull out her cell phone, saying she would say I beat her up and am holding her hostage.

Yes, the root. Smells terribly pungent. Isn't Benadryl an allergy tablet, used for hayfever and the like? As for validolium, I doubt it since it sounds effective.

Coming from someone who Force chokes their little child, I don't give a fuck how money he blows on you. You should know this is what sick fucks do to feel better. They buy things, because that's easy. Maybe your father was a sick fuck who meant well, but you need to protect yourself from that anyway. Fire doesn't mean you harm, but it'll burn you all the same if you let it. So don't.

>Well, that is entirely fair Nick. No parent should need to devote all of their money to their child without some toy for themselves.

If you and I were women who got stuck in a dark alley after an evening at the dance club, you're the Stacy who jumps forth with her naked ass, apologising for tripping over the incoming cocks that our would-be rapists are pointing at us.

I've never seen anyone so eager to defend their abusers.

Surely you see how that's bullshit, right? Just because I state the fact that they spent money on themselves doesn't mean I suggest it should have been spent on me, you fallacious bastard.

>He would often sell guns he loved so a bill could get paid. Does that sound like something someone that doesn't love someone would do?

>Isn't Benadryl an allergy tablet, used for hayfever and the like?
Yes, but being an allergy tablet it's also an antihistamine, meaning it would slow down your nervous system. If you take enough it can also knock you out. But I don't reccomend you do that. Really I find that to be a underrated over the counter sleep/ calm down pill. Since its labeled as allergy, lots of people overlook its other effects.

I'll translate from Narc to normal human: she dropped something because she's a fucking kluts and since you were there, she could accuse you of distracting her, to protect her fragile mentally unstable ego, so you took the blame and to this day you think it was your fault, as you were made to believe, for years. Wake up.

Your mother is a fucking whore.

>She would hit herself and pull out her cell phone, saying she would say I beat her up and am holding her hostage.

Your mother is a sad and sorry piece of shit. I'm sorry man, but if you keep contact with this human waste of space, you're the cuckest of all cucks. Try asking her for an apology for what she did to you if you need to be convinced that she's a fucking piece of shit.

>Actually you are right on that point. It is all television, it is make believe.

I am right in observing that you felt the same as I did while watching tv and films. You know what? Normal families are very much like what you see in movies and series, because that's what they're supposed to represent: you and I had families that were fucking abnormal.

I spent my childhood wanting my life to be like a movie. Little did I know normal life WAS like a fucking movie. The way people interacted, the way kids in series could actually speak their minds to their parents and have an exchange. This happens in real families.

Your family, like mine, was a joke. Mentally fucked up people trying to be parents and failing spectacularly.

Seeing things clearly is the only way to help yourself now. You deserve to live life the way it was intended. You need to get out of the fucking fog.

No, Psy. Your parents are to be blamed. You have to be man enough to realise it wasn't your fault, stop being a fucking life cuck. Your responsibility is in doing better now, in getting therapy, in facing the truth, no matter how unpleasant it is. You never had parents, you had mental nutbags, monsters, highly disturbed individuals.

The past aways catches up with you. What do you think's gonna happen the day your son acts up for the first time? You're going to feel that ancient rage and Force choke him too? And then you'll be angry at yourself for repeating the cycle and you'll take that out on your son too?

Well, people scream at each other Nick. That isn't something abnormal. People raise their voice to each other all the time.

>They gave me a certain degree of freedom by not being around me like helicopter parents,

When you know your parents can do what yours did, their presence is with you all the time, because you're scared. So don't give me more crap about how they were good because they weren't as bad as other parents, when they were in every fucking way.

Indeed. They are non-working NEETs that laugh at me for being cucked into working while they crank their rap music and live off my grandmother who prioritizes them over me, giving me a place to stay but not really wanting to bother with me. They argue with each other constantly over finances, they mostly sell drugs to maintain themselves. I try not to get involved with all of that, I just live my own life. I just would prefer they leave me alone and not drive me crazy with all the noise, especially at midnight when I am trying to sleep for work.

Psy, when you're an adult, your parents don't raise their voices at you anymore. If they do, you get the fuck out and don't come back until you get an apology. What are you, a toddler? Why the fuck would they raise their voice at you? Even my own parents knew better than to this for the past decade or so.

>People raise their voice to each other all the time.

No, they don't. You'd be amazed to spend 3 hours in a normal family. You'd think they were all acting because I paid them.

>You know, if what you say is true, it would explain my extremely low self-esteem.

Fucking hell, could it be you're beginning to understand? Of course! Nobody can go through your childhood unscathed.

>I don't really understand how you have such a powerfully emotional response to things in these threads, Nick

I can't help it. It's driving me insane. Imagine you see someone get beat up for no reason, and you see that person suffer terrible consequences for it, and yet the person blames himself for what his attackers did. And again, and again, like they don't fucking get it.

And then they keep doing the same shit. And it goes on. It makes me want to scream.

I'm a very emotional person and I usually keep it in check, but not tonight.

>Endless chore
Parenthood is an endless chore. Once you get a child, you give your life to them and stop caring much for yourself. My father lost his finger working for me. As I said, my mother didn't really want a kid, she just didn't want to have to deal with abortion again.

>Children need to talk
I have to agree with this. It would be nice to have some emotional support.

>Please forget everything you were taught
And replace it with what? That sounds like a lack of order or knowing what to do in life.

>It is.
Then why was my mother's husband the exact same way? Why are my cousins the exact same way? Why is everyone around me who has involvement with me abusive? There is a point where you have to say it is me or them that isn't normal. There is less of me than them, so I must be the abnormal one.

>>38107798
I felt really good talking to you. I'm sorry you had night/day. To be honest I haven't share my situation with anyone for awhile now. Years ago I told some friends about my C PTSD and the freak out and then didn't believe me. I don't have any friends now so haven't shared it much.
I never had issues sharing but, for recently I started look for a new psychiatrist and had to do a in take meeting. It's hard listing all your abuse at once, I wish they had better methods.

You have every right to be angry at the people who hurt you. Just don't victimize yourself. I feel if you do that your letting the people who hurt you win.

Anxiety attacks and panic attacks I assume you mean? Really hard to tell panic attack from a heart attack, terrible feel.
I can give you sleep advice, and for supplemts and the like, but that will come from a guy that hasn't slept in forever and will prob not sleep this night either cause his girlfriend is a fucking cunt.
Have you tried Melatonin? Assuming you have a bathtub I'd reccomend special salt that contains magnesium. Soak in that for 30-40 minutes before nite nite and you'll feel a diffrence.

Conflicted and sorry for not following your advice and also common sense for stopping to text the female and giving her space. I'm just going all out an also super moody. Gonna have a decisive talk with her over FaceTime soon and we'll see if that goes anywhere.

>You still haven't said a concrete thing you have done though. That is what I don't understand. You don't use force, then what do you do? Let them do whatever? Speak in a mean voice? I just don't get it Nick.

Taking the time to answer this.

The first time you meet a class, that's when they test you. Consciously, unconsciously, everything you do will be analysed. Kids always fear you in the beginning for the simple reason that they don't know you.

They will very soon know if you're a clown or not, and if it's your first time, you will be a clown. You can't fake experience and you're better off not even trying.

God is in the details. They will soon know if you know what you're doing or not. Simple things: when I started, I was always concerned about doing something or saying something when I was in front of a class. I felt like I was giving a show and I didn't want my audience waiting on me.

That attitude was weak and insecure, and students could tell. Now, I'll stand and stare at them, like a statue, merely waiting to have their attention and silence. I don't even need to fucking talk. They know what I want and they know I know that they know. Kids will play dumb if it suits them, but once they realise you see through their bullshit, they'll cut it short quickly.

I don't tolerate any BS from my students, especially the sort that seems to fool other adults. I never talk down to them, either. Children aren't retarded, but if they see you buy into thinking they're dumber than they are, they will use it.

I'm demanding, but I am demanding of myself just as I am of them. They know it and they can respect my demands because they are fair. My efforts for them is obvious and they know my concern is real. I'm tough in front of all of them, but when dealing with them individually, it's different, simply because you don't talk to 20 people the same way you speak to 1.

>>
>>38107963

Respect is obtained through being credible, having something to offer, deserving to be the boss.

Just as in nature, with animals, kids will not follow someone who isn't worthy of being followed, but since they have no choice, they will do as they're told, but mess along the way. I never have that shit.

As the ruler, your role has to be enforced well, or the kids will know you're a clown. You have to be more strict with yourself than you are on them. Your rules must make sense. There must be zero bullshit in them or you won't be credible. You can still enforce bullshit, but you will have lost them, their trust, and their respect.

That's how bad parents come to brute force, after they fucked up everything else.

Rules must always be clear and precise, kids must always know what the rules are and if they ask about them, there must be a rational explanation for any rule you come up with. If you can't explain your bullshit, it isn't their fault, you just thought some shit up that means nothing and you got caught by a kid. Bravo Obama. I can give you examples if you want.

>Assume you're a troll
I am very good at making people assume it apparently. I see nothing wrong with what I said.

>Would common sense be detected by you
Actually, my parents loved to yell at me that I lack common sense. If you are arguing against them, this is a point both of you share.

>>38107406
>It's OK, I was a bad Jew
Well, isn't it better to blame the self? What does blaming my parents accomplish Nick?

>You are so fucking clueless
I must be. I have no idea why any of what I am saying is so upsetting.

>Sickness due to vidya
You know... that actually does make sense. He didn't get motion sickness in the past when he used to play a game with me. He bought me a game once upon a time and I would play it, but my computer was rather weak at the time and thus the game could barely run. He used to enjoy beating me nightly, he would brag about being on top of the leaderboards, and I felt heavily limited due to the laggy computer I was stuck on. I started embracing older games that didn't lag for me. I started disliking the tiny resolution I had to play on, 800x600 in the mid-2000s, and the lag got frustrating to the point I stopped bothering with his game. So I played my own old school titles and asked him to play with me on them. He got sick from them. His game was Doom 3. Mine was Unreal.

>>38108322
>Parenthood is an endless chore.

No. Normal parents all say that having children is a dream come true. And it is true.

> Once you get a child, you give your life to them and stop caring much for yourself.

Bullshit. You were made to believe your parents were boohoo martyrs because you existed. What fucking pieces of shit.

>My father lost his finger working for me

Your father didn't work for you. He worked for himself and made money. What he does next is his choice. Look, either you act like a fucking father and take care of your kid or you don't, but you don't get to whine your entire life about your own choice.

> As I said, my mother didn't really want a kid, she just didn't want to have to deal with abortion again.

And you think that's worthy? Your dad is a fucking klutz who loses his finger because he's awkward and somehow that makes him a hero for you? Wake up. Your whore mother gets pregnant without wanting to, and has you just so she doesn't abort, and she's a hero too? Please. By the end of the month, I want you not to be such a little bitch anymore. Seriously.

>I have to agree with this. It would be nice to have some emotional support.

As soon as kids can talk, they will talk. That's how they grow. They need to. I was told to shut up because I was annoying my parents. That alone creates a lot of social gap between you and normal kids. Because you don't get to train conversation.

>And replace it with what? That sounds like a lack of order or knowing what to do in life.

Watch Super Nanny if you can and if that show exists in English. You'll learn how raising a child works, without violence, threats, bullshit, and mental illness. I used what I learned there a lot in my own job.

>>38108327
I hope that over time I'll be able to sort it out, but I've become fairly used to taking abuse in one way or another and just swallowing it. I feel angry most of the time but it's in my stomach rather than my chest. I have to keep it hidden. Then it erupts, whether it's me losing my temper or something more dramatic. I know that I ought to be angry with the right people but somewhere I just lost the ability. I really hope that EMDR will make it easier.

>>38108334
Unfortunately I don't have a bathtub. I don't know if I have panic attacks as people seem to describe them e.g. heart attack-like. I do experience escalating, hopeless panic and that's usually accompanied by visual snow. I feel as though things are totally chaotic, and it's rather as though I'm falling. Worst of all, powerless. That was how I felt the other night, adding Nick on that social media thing in fact. It was a huge crisis in my mind. I'm sure that came across, but probably not exactly what was going on for me. I have a severe phobia of social media and the associated exposure.
>>
>>38107572
>It's like you are trying to piss me off
I seem to have found something I am good at. A shame it is something so negative. Well, your parents didn't get an abortion, so they decided to keep you around.

>DO I REALLY HAVE TO EXPLAIN THIS FUCKING SHIT TO YOU????
I am amazed that I have upset you this much. I don't even know what I did.

>ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS?
Yes, because she could have aborted me and it was her ultimate choice not to. I should be happy she didn't make that choice.

>YOU WERE TELLING THE FUCKING TRUTH
I sure don't know how a 1st grader can tell the truth that well without having some weird and warped interpretation of the world. It is like you expect children to know how to do their taxes. Do kids really know this much?

>THIS IS ANOTHER FUCKING LOONY FUCK BIN
As I ask in a later post... how many people do I blame around me before I look at myself? It is too easy to say everyone else is the bad guy.
>>
>>38108322

Example:

Kid misbehaves and acts like a little shit. I come to him. I call him, if I know his name, if not, I ask him his name first things. Generally, kids will look away. Bar Asperger's, I force them to look at me in the eye, by simply asking so calmly and politely. There is never any need to shout like a fucking moron when you begin. No need to hurry either. If the kid doesn't look at me in the eye right away, I just ask again, so he doesn't imagine that I'm going to give up on anything.

Once that is done, almost no kids will act proud at that point. Eye contact makes it very clear who is the authority. You don't need to establish it more than that, the kid is listening. At this point, I speak slowly and calmly, but firmly, and state what I want from the kid. I also ask him to make sure he understood what I said. And he only leaves when I let him go, if he tries to leave before, I tell him to stay until I say otherwise. None of that is said in a harsh tone.

Understand this: acting like a boss is for people who aren't bosses. What your parents did shows desperate attempts at being authorities via whatever means they had. They sucked, they had zero authority. Resorting to force is weakness. It's like shooting your chess opponent with a gun instead of playing the fucking game to win.

I hate to tell you this but, the EMDR is going to make you even more emotional reck for a time.
Man my stupid psychiatrist didn't refill my prescription before the long Holiday weekend. Leaving me fucked. Don't know if I should just smoke pot.
I'm sorry you are having a hard time too. My panic been up without my meds but, I been hinding.
>>
>>38108322
>Then why was my mother's husband the exact same way?

Because mentally ill people attract and are attracted to other mentally ill people. Nobody sane would fuck your mother. That's why you keep seeing the same retarded fucks over and over again. It's geometry, you don't shape a circle into a square. A good man would have kicked your mother's ass out of his life within seconds of meeting her.

>Why is everyone around me who has involvement with me abusive?

Same reason. My entire family is dysfunctional in various ways.

You're more resilient than them because you don't abuse anyone. For all I know.
>>
>>38107757
Well guys, I have done it. I have sent Nick off the deep end and I don't even know why. I simply recounted my childhood and somehow that is causing emotional distress.

>>38107816
Okay. The kid won't stop playing with their toy. It is 2 AM and you need to sleep, but their noise is ridiculously loud. You have asked your kid to stop several times, but they go right back to playing with the toy. How do you handle it?
>>
>>38108327
>Just don't victimize yourself. I feel if you do that your letting the people who hurt you win.

Don't try to make it sound like being a victim is a bad thing. He was a victim, now he's a survivor. If anything, he doesn't see himself as a victim enough, not the opposite. Blame the right people, not yourself.

The people who hurt him have already lost. They lost because they are pieces of shit. Winners don't treat people like this.
>>
>>38108820
I'm not too worried. I like a challenge. Perhaps more than that I imagine that feeling some more varied feels will be productive. I don't really feel like an emotional wreck most of the time, just highly strung. I don't have any prescription. No meds to rely on. Pot works for some people; I can't stand it myself.
>>
>>38108603
>I am very good at making people assume it apparently. I see nothing wrong with what I said.

You are literally telling me that raping a woman is just "being too passionate and getting carried away" and then buying her a salad shows your care.

You are messed up. Real fucking messed up on so many fucking levels it's not even funny.

Here's a better example: I come to you, I smile at you, then I cut your hand off and laugh. But then I buy you a salad and it's all OK. Right? Of course not. Wake the fuck up.

>Actually, my parents loved to yell at me that I lack common sense. If you are arguing against them, this is a point both of you share.

The difference is that I am not lying, they were. Your parents had zero common sense, but they would tell you so so that you would never be sure of your own opinion. I'm not doing that.

I am not yelling at you, and your lack of common sense comes from their education, not yourself. Another huge difference. They were in charge of teaching you normal human emotions and understanding. I never was. I am now, I suppose.

>Well, isn't it better to blame the self? What does blaming my parents accomplish Nick?

Blaming doesn't matter as much as figuring out where responsibility lies. You take responsibility for things you weren't responsible for; believing that will hinder your progress. Truth and logic will always be your friends. Do you want to remain a Stockholm Syndrome cuck your whole life?

>I must be. I have no idea why any of what I am saying is so upsetting.

Which is amazing. I explained it: I am upset that you don't see the harm done to you and that you defend your abusers and even believe them. Imagine if you saw an old lady getting scammed by some asshole. You're my old lady.

>>38108603
>He got sick from them. His game was Doom 3. Mine was Unreal.

And on top of that he has shit tastes in game. What a fucking pleb. Who the fuck even plays Doom 3 multiplayer?

Your father is a fucking pansy. I hate him.
>>
>>38107887
>Force chokes
I told you, that is the big thing. He never choked me, it was all intimidation. He would press me up against the wall to scare me. he never suffocated me. Fire means well and can also keep you warm. Fire can provide for you. You just need to not be a retard.

>Stacy who jumps forth with her naked ass
Does it sound better or worse to know I have roleplayed as this quite a few times on various slave RP places?

>Surely you see how that's bullshit, right?
No, Nick, you were upset they bought the latest tech gadgets for some reason. Why is it then?

>You think making sure you don't have to pay more money because of a late bill is love?
Indeed, because he could have chosen to not support me and not pay the bills at all. Okay, think of it this way. He kept doing it after I was 18, which he didn't have to do as no law protects me after such an age. There was no punishment he had to avoid then Nick, yet he still did it.
>>
>>38108747
>I seem to have found something I am good at. A shame it is something so negative. Well, your parents didn't get an abortion, so they decided to keep you around.

I was an accident. Steps were taken to abort me.

>Yes, because she could have aborted me and it was her ultimate choice not to.

Would you tell your own child he's alive only because you didn't feel like being uncomfortable for some time?

> Do kids really know this much?

Telling the truth isn't hard. Kids are bad liars. Your mother is a liar, you know it now, and they told you what to say during the investigation. If they had nothing to fear, why coach you at all? They blamed you for it, surely, but fuck that. Any of the things you told us ITT was enough to get them arrested, as they should have been.

I always told them what I wanted to buy. If I wanted a high end computer, I said it. If I wanted some toy, I said it.

>Your mother is a fucking whore
I can't disagree with you there. She had sex with possibly 100 guys in the time I was around her. She had a new guy nearly every week, several of which she didn't want relationships with and just were friends with benefits.

>Try asking for an apology
She has apologized. She said she was under a lot of stress and that we both were to blame. I accept it as the best I will get from her.

>Your family, like mine, was a joke.
I can agree that the calling the cops bit was ridiculous. Between that and throwing me out of the house, my mother was a bit unstable.

What families on tv are we talking about? There are a lot of different families. Malcolm in the Middle seemed relatively realistic.

>>38108049

How will that help me? I can do whatever without changing my back knowledge and changing my back knowledge doesn't change where I am today. It happened.

>He would press me up against the wall to scare me.

That sounds normal to you.

>No, Nick, you were upset they bought the latest tech gadgets for some reason. Why is it then?

I wasn't, I had no understanding of most of what they were doing, nor that it was abuse in so many cases. The bullshit I'm talking about is false equivalence and false dichotomy, as if it could only be A or B and nothing in between. I was never upset at what my parents bought, I'm only responding to your assumptions. They didn't spend much money on us, but whenever it was done, we were to think it was amazingly generous.

>yet he still did it.

Is there an age when you stop feeding your pet?
>>
>>38109257
>and that we both were to blame.

That's not an apology. Don't fall for it. If she can't take responsibility she should go fuck herself.

Don't accept it. Tell her to go suck some more dicks. What a fucking piece of trash.

>What families on tv are we talking about? There are a lot of different families. Malcolm in the Middle seemed relatively realistic.

You wat mate. It's a great show and very underrated, but it's definitely not a realistic show at all. It's not meant to be.

Thread about to die.

I must sleep now. It's been a taxing evening for me.

Not in vain.

Psy, we'll have shitloads to discuss in the coming days, but I'm optimistic. Read the article I sent you, and read about how children should be raised, and read about abuse, and read about the effects on people as they become adults.

>Their presence is with you all the time
You know, this does speak to me a lot. I grew up in a lot of fear of my father due to the fact that he worked for the secret service and would bring home a lot of spy gadgets. My mother would find them hidden everywhere, trying to watch us. It is a paranoia that has eaten at me, when am I being watched, when he says he respects my privacy does he really?

>Your parents don't raise their voices at you anymore
They do if you rely on them still. My father carpools me. As he has said, I need to kiss his butt because he is the one who gives the ride and thus the one who decides what time he will show up. This is why I need to stand upstairs and wait for him for who knows how long, but he will get mad if I take any length of time. He is the one taking time out of his day to drive over, so I show my appreciation by waiting.

>You'd think they were all acting because I paid them
I have no idea how I would handle a "normal" family. All I can think of is a highly religious family that plays guitar. They probably would be controlling too, especially if I didn't want to be religious.

>Nobody can go through your childhood unscathed.
I used to dream that. I used to believe I was a person stuck between two warring tyrants. I used to compare my parents to the heat and cold miser. Both are opposites, but both are misers at the end of the day.

Well my father is looking for a family home, he just has yet to find it. Until then I have to grit and bear the situation I am in until either my grandmother dies and leaves the house to him, or we find a house that means his conditions. Note they are mostly his because I simply care about a basement. Give me a basement, I am happy.
