    rate the last film you watched

    Avengers Endgame There were times during this movie I was nearly crying because of how good it was. I'm also a massive marvel comic book geek and MCU fan so that may have something to do with, but I have never had a movie impact me in such a way. So, you know, I thought is was pretty good.

    Post your random thoughts/feelings etc

    We should start a SA sign business, with signs people can put all over their houses to constantly remind them of things. If I didn't live with my parents, I would happily put signs everywhere ::p: Blessing and a curse, I was going to say the same thing. While it may occupy your mind for...

    Post your random thoughts/feelings etc

    I think I need a sign over my bed that read "Go to sleep; You'll feel better in the morning" because that almost always seems to be the case. Nonetheless I periodically find myself up late feeling the need to find the solution some problem that weighs much more heavily on me at midnight than at...

    Celebrities with Social Anxiety Disorder

    When I think of movies that depict social anxiety well Punch-Drunk Love is always one that comes to my mind quickly, but I had never thought of Adam Sandler (the lead in the movie) with any of those issues personally, but when I was watching him on Ellen recently I was very much getting a...

    I'm sorry. I've made a big mistake making this thread. I realise it can be too triggering/depressing for some members.

    I don't think there is anything inherently harmful with talking about bad or traumatic things. Outside therapy, a support forum is probably as good as any of a place to talk about and work through that type of thing. This may not be the same for everyone, but on the forum when I see a thread I...

    Sociopaths

    I sort of thought that was what you meant when I read your post and was going to use a different example, but that anecdote was at the forefront of my mind so I decided to share that. I think when I try to pinpoint right and wrong, intent to threaten or harm other people's well-being is...

    Gamers thread

    Oo nice! The switch is awesome. It was my first new system of any kind since the Wii, and has not disappointed. I am surprised how much I like the handheld feature of it, as I assumed I would play it on the TV more often. That may be in part because I fall into a similar trap as you, but...

    Sociopaths

    Good points, I think for some things we may just see things differently. As to your point about things being bad simply because it hurts people, I feel its too consequentialist, which is a school of thought that focuses on the outcomes more than the reasoning behind them. The anecdote that puts...

    Treatment of the socially anxious humans, in the ancient tribes?

    When this topic comes up I always think of something I learned in an Abnormal Psychology class I took in college, which is along the lines of what Loyal was getting it. While googling to concept to refamilarize myself with it, I came across this joke which also paints the point fairly well also...

    Post your favourite music

    I wasn't old enough to know how songs like Fiona Apple's Criminal were received or felt like at the time at release, but my initial reactions feels like there are parallels to this one.

    I played through this demo last week and it has made deciding which game to buy next an easy decision (y) Now all I need is to find the time to play it once I do :P

    Sociopaths

    Thanks Loner, and I won't. It's not disagreement that bothers me, I like a good argument and thinks it helps strengthen an idea if its a good one or point out its error if its a bad one. I am bothered when I make a blatant oversight in a thought process, but understand I'm not perfect and feel...

    Sociopaths

    After reading back what I and thinking it over for a while, and feel like in my post and at times when I think like that I am using circumstance or intention as a justification for bad behavior, which I don't think it right. I might not be keeping myself honest and trying to justify it in others...

    Sociopaths

    Your post reminds me of a line of thinking I often had, and still often do, about an old co-worker. I worked with guy for a long time, and by the end of my tenure there, I struggled to see him as anything other than an asshole. I watched him as he started as a cook and slowly worked his way up...

    I've created a Discord server for SPW

    I'd consider it if there was ever a time I wasn't the only one there when I pop in :LOL: As much as I love awkward voice chats, I personally prefer the awkward video chat staring. Just ten people on camera, half of them smiling like dopes at someone else, and the other half realizing someone...
