I know this isn't the right place but I can't seem to find the right place. Hocd is homosexual obsessive compulsive disorder which makes you obsess over the idea that you could be gay.
Here's the story:
It all started when I was really stressed out one night when I 13. I was regularly very stressed because I was studying for this test to get into the highschool of my dreams and had just found ...

So I need help with these three things, and I will address each of them individually. If anyone has any advice or just can relate please tell. Anyways, so I'm highly sensitive. When someone insults me in any fashion, I feel a strong need and hatred (that lasts for decades) of attacking them back. I don't understand this, and I'm a fairly logical person who decides to face my emotions head on as to not ...

Sometimes when out in public; if I A. feel physically unsafe and B. see someone looking at me in what I perceive to be a threatening way, I get this 'fight or flight' reaction. I become hostile (like suppressed rage) and fearful. It doesn't happen often enough to be a problem, but I'm just wondering why...

Do you think this may be a sort of 'primal response' to feeling threatened?

And has anyone else ...

I'm new to this forum and I'm not sure if this is the right category to put this topic in. Also, although I may not be the best at explaining things, I will do the best I can to help provide you with the best information possible.

Hey guys, new here and just doing a post. In a nutshell....31/yo guy here, college grad with a useless degree in Poli sci, and for the past 3 years I have worked in a pathetic call center for healthcare.

I did not go to college for this...and whatever the issue is, I got tested and do not have ADHD (the test that says don't press space bar when "X" shows up), but found out my ...

Hi
I've been wondering for a long time.. What are these things I keep experiencing?
I have read about "intrusive thoughts", but those seem different from what I experience, they seem more similar to your own thoughts, but unwanted and sometimes very weird. Mine are not like that.
I know you can't 'diagnose' me and I'm not asking that, but maybe you do have a clue about what these are, maybe some people here have ...

Does anyone know of any good movies about mental illness? Maybe like Silver Linings Playbook?

Hello all, this is my first post in this forum. I've been dealing with depression, anxiety, and OCD for many years but I was recently diagnosed with BPD about 6 months ago. I can say that it was such a relief to get a diagnosis that made sense instead of receiving the same diagnosis over and over again with no explanation of why. Now that I know I have BPD I can work towards a ...

Can someone have major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder all at the same time? I've been diagnosed with all three at some point, but was once told by a counselor that they are conflicting diagnoses. Is it possible to have all three? What a nightmare, right?

Looking for new friends who deal with mental health issues. I have bipolar and anxiety issues, and some personality issues.
