What mental issue do you think you have?

I try to as well. It just sucks that it sometimes takes 'effort', and like a conscious reminder on my part to do so. I don't feel like a cold person, but I feel like sometimes I have to be one to make it through the day. Maybe I'm just a coward and should stop being so butthurt from people who never deserved my openness in the first place? This is a truth that I have not yet naturally embodied. The problem is in order for me to negate the hurt, I need to diminish the person who gave it to me, but I can't do that, because deep down I care about people too much even to write them off and save my own feelings.

Sorry to hear you got hurt recently. Want me to beat them up? :redface: <3

I think when I finally meet that person who i can be 100% open with and they are 100% open and we are just loving every second . . . i think that shall be a glorious day. I will dance in the rain

 

i understand you, and wish i knew how to articulate this right so bear with me.. but you don't have to diminish that other person, the place where your compassion comes is also the place where you find unconditional love. if there's one thing i really believe when it comes to love, i think everyone is deserving of it and there's an endless source of it - within and around. maybe you can embrace some new ideas
p.s. i forgot to add, your pain is not cowardly. i think looking at the pain and why we feel it can lead to us understanding the other person and maybe finding even more love for them. if that makes sense. idk.

haha that's ok, i already beat them up myself. :xmasnut: (not realy)

i hope for a day like that, too. you could always dance in the rain by yourself for now

 

I agree with you that everyone deserves love, that love is endless and everywhere, in a sense all we are is love. The more I think about it the more I realize I don't know what my position is . . . today I say this, because I'm a little hungover and it's a shitty day and last night was a bad night for my social anxiety . . . I feel having a position on these things is almost a liability, like you should take each situation on its grounds and not approach situations with any rubric of meaning. Yes, we are one and all is love and all is one and we are love, totally . . . why do i forget this. Why do i listen to the sleazy whines of my ego, the oily voice of "me" which casts these realities aside without a second glance and seeks to fulfill itself selfishly. I've been in a weird state of mind the last few weeks/months, and I don't like it, and I don't know why it is so. A strange regression, a newly healed ego which in health stretches and struts, invigorated by life and hungry for experience. I need to work on not allowing a healing ego to become a bigger ego

I think I need to do some rain dancing

 

My Delight and Thy Delight

My delight and thy delight
Walking, like two angels white,
In the gardens of the night:

My desire and thy desire
Twining to a tongue of fire,
Leaping live, and laughing higher:

Thro' the everlasting strife
In the mystery of life.


Love, from whom the world begun,
Hath the secret of the sun.

Love can tell, and love alone,
Whence the million stars were strewn,
Why each atom knows its own,
How, in spite of woe and death,
Gay is life, and sweet is breath:

This he taught us, this we knew,
Happy in his science true,
Hand in hand as we stood
'Neath the shadows of the wood,
Heart to heart as we lay
In the dawning of the day.

Robert Seymour Bridges

 

Dude other people CAN relate to you and do I'm sure. What I hate is people who act like they are the only one in the world with a problem and it's so much worse for them than anyone else...You can go ahead and add narcissistic personality disorder to your list.

 

I'm a narcissist, you're speaking like an idiot. We are even.

I never said I was worse, I was just responding to a thread about self diagnosis, which is basically a thread regarding the hypochondriacal of the world. It's offensive actually, not just to me, but too anyone who has actually had some issue.

If you think I am a narcissistic then that's fine. But you don't even know me, who are you to judge? I apologize to anyone who may be suffering, but if they haven't been to a doctor to get it sorted then I can judge them for that at least- and more so if they are just exaggerating somewhat.


It's an issue that I hold very dearly to myself, I wish everybody good health. You jumped to a very typical conclusion.

 

to respond to your second paragraph..
only an individual can say what they feel offended by
who are you to think and speak for everyone else? i express my feelings for myself, thank you
according to doctors i have "mental issues.." whether or not one chooses to view mental "health" in that way is up to them, but regardless of your viewpoint, i am not offended by someone posing the question "what mental issues do you think you have."

 

I have general anxiety disorder and social anxiety disorder, as well as depression. I was aware that I had all of these disorders long before they were diagnosed. I also have a very addictive personality, and I think that's very relevant to this thread. I'm addicted to general intoxication, regardless of the substance. It's not debilitating, at this point, though it was for a while.

I'm also a VERY paranoid person. I always try to look on the positive side of things but, at the same time, I always expect the worst to happen. This is based on past experience, as well as the fact that I have a lot of negative karma coming my way. lol

 

I appreciate that. I guess I am simply not quite as liberal or diplomat as you, which is fair enough. I am obviously looking into my own personal life too much, I know so many jerks who insist they have 'issues'

LOOK, YOUR MUMS FRIENDS, BROTHERS, CATS DOG DIED. GET THE FUCK OVER IT.

I apologize for my tyrannical attitude, nonetheless

 

put in that way, i think everyone has issues. we're all crazy. we're all perfect and imperfect.

 

I think I didn tomuch psucodelics.

 

:cheers2: here, here

 

i'm perfectly normal. it's the rest of the world that's fucked up

 

I have a really bad case of not giving a flying fuck....

 

I had to get 30% of my brain removed when I was 12. I guess that's a mental Issue, even though I'm just lacking mental Tissue.

 

Why did you have to have that done?

 

Nothing wrong upstairs with me, definitely disordered but organisation has never been my strong point.

 

Ive been feeling pretty regular lately.

 

That's good to hear man Haven't seen you posting as much too? That's usually a good sign

 

well even as a kid I always create these weird OCD patterns in my head.it would get really annoying and I always thought I was weird until I found out there was a name for it.over the past few tears it's gone away for the most part except when I'm experience anxiety.

Thanks to weed Ive had some anxiety for about 3 1/2 years. It was really bad for almost half a year but eventually got better. I can't really smoke that often. I wish I could trip but it really doesn't seem like a good idea this point my life.
