i've wondered this for awhile, but never thought to ask here. so far in a nutshell, ive learned that the problem you have to undo is that the coping mechanisms that worked for you as a kid end up biting you in the butt as an adult. thats great to know, but i really dont see how therapy helps...

i had a really weird dream, that wasnt scary but it was still bizzare. i was a kid again and i was gettin yelled at by my mama who was standin like 20 feet away. well her eyes were bulging and her face was all contorted and red from yelling so much. but heres the weird part, there were these...

I got an awkward phonecall from my friend this morning and afterward i finally realized something. maybe other people are this way too. is this true for you guys? when people see you're eccentric and creative, they think you're so ****ing great and love your craziness, so you trust them and get...

so since theres no cure for insanity, you science people need to do us all a favor and create a virus that turns all the normal folk crazy. think of the advantages! everyone would understand when you refuse to go into a crowded room, people wont give you the "your such a pain in the ass look"...

i stay up most of the night. sometimes i enjoy it, but other times it seems like an eternity where theres so much energy and nothing to do with it, like sitting around for hours in a waiting room, then your so tired and edgy the next day that you can hardly look at anybody or talk straight. its...

Heres a thread for people to rant about insecurity, trust problems, and paranoia. heres mine, I always feel like people are either intentionally or unintentionally trying to fuk with my head. its completely irrational, cause not all people are like that, but i always feel that way and it...

so i think i wouldnt be so bitter about the whole conquering fear thing if fighting irrational fear was as rewarding and noble as fighting rational fear. for example, if i went around some warzone with bomb and land mines doing humanitarian stuff, then enduring fear would be brave thing but...

ever noticed the men in the movies look really feminine? whats going on!!! they've got these delicate faces and they're thin, pale, extra smooth skin, some of them even look like they're wearing lipstick! i have nothing against guys that want to be female, if thats what makes some folks happy...

this really steals an idea from someone else's thread, Do extra nice people make you extremely nervous? why do you think that is? they make me want to hurl and i dont know why.

i was looking at this book, "surviving a borderline parent" by Kimberlee roth and freda b. friedman. its bizarre to read something that describes what i went through as a kid so well. i cant believe it. im sorry this is so long. there's a list of "symptoms" i guess, of being the kid of a...

have you ever heard the saying "if you think everyone around you is crazy, chances are its really you" and thought, oh sh_t.

How it takes you 4 seconds to warm up to some people and years to warm up to others? there's no rhyme or reason either. too bad you cant give people the memo! id really like to get to know you, but i will have to think about it for four years first. can i get back to you then?

So I was in walmart today, and there's already holiday stuff everywhere??? what? Anyone else cringe and feel nausea at the thought of Christmas? or its unpleasant precursor, thanksgiving? social occasions + family = hell

Remember in the "sound of music" where the lady cheers up the boatload of austrian kids? she sings the song these are a few of my favorite things. So here it is! a happy thread. What are a few of your favorite things? here's mine: -coffee, lots of it -heating units that work -teaching...

Are you territorial? You know how there's two kinds of animals, the kind that get attached to people, and then the kind that gets attached to it's territory. maybe normal folks attach to people, and sa folks attach to territory. just a fun theory. i know i always notice how places smell.

I think i subconsciously (is that a word?) try to hurt people by saying the worst thing I can think of. it just gets blurted out. maybe its cause i treat myself that way, i dont know. or cause hurting makes you stronger, wakes you up, makes sure you dont fall asleep. i get irritated if a...

Feeling guilty because when people are nice to me, I can't be nice back. I can talk fine, but I come off as cold and distant. only with adults though, i can be nice to kids at least! I just hate thinking im one more impersonal person sucking the soul out of life. i hate it.

ignore so uh, hows everybody's saterday?
