Hello people, I'm in a very unpleasant state of mind and it's been going on for a few years now and I'm slowely starting to lose my personality because of it. I've been trying to fix myself for a long time, but no matter what I do I just can't kill the darkness in my soul. It's taking too long and I'm becoming very desperate, so I'll try to explain as detailed as I can just what is bothering me and how this might have happened during my time growing up. This is my story: As a kid I was very loving, humorous and I had a lot of imagination. During the years in primary school I was not very popular though, because I was very shy, sensitive and a tad insecure. I also had a hard time standing up for myself most of the time until people would push me to the max limit and I would become very agressive and angry. On top of that I wasn't really able to concentrate on my schoolwork and I'd just watch out the window or joke around with other kids instead. Because of this I never finished my tasks and the other kids made fun of me because I was slow. During these years I actually thought I was a dumb kid and I remember that this made me feel “different”, but it never really made me depressed. I only felt a tad more insecure about my (self-proclaimed) lack of intelligence. My first feelings of actual “depression” came at the age of ten or eleven I think. I started to become interested in sex and me and a friend of mine started looking at porn together out of curiousity. This boy was a bit weird because he lacked oxygen at birth (no offence, he was a good friend) and often he would come up with crazy things to do. I actually felt bad watching porn, but eventually me and my friend would try out sexual things with each other and I started to feel even worse. During that time I developed a major feeling of shame but at the same time I would continue to explore sexual things with this guy. I started to think I was gay and he even told me that we where both gay even though I denied it. I felt very very bad about this because I knew I wasn't gay, but doing these things felt good anyway. Eventually I stopped doing this with my friend and I started masterbating to porn. This made me feel very bad also and even though I didn't believe in god I started praying after every masterbation session and I asked god for forgiveness. After keeping this a secret for about a year and thinking about suicide because of this I told my parents about it. They didn't get mad at all and told me it was actually quite normal for boys my age to explore things sexually and I felt very relieved, but even though I felt better the feelings of guilt about myself were still there sometimes. It took me very long before I started to realise that sex and masterbation is normal. I don't know how all of this affected me later in life, but I DO know that this “secret” was the first thing I ever felt suicidal and depressed about. When I was about thirtheen to fourteen years old I didn't feel bad about this anymore. I started to worry about other things. The next time I fell into a mild depression it was because of a girl that rejected me. I still was a shy and insecure guy and it took me a lot of guts to even tell the girl I liked her. When she rejected me I became very offensive to the girl and I actually got mad. I even started to threath her in a way because I was so upset. Later in life I got rejected a few times more and instead of getting angry I just started to get more depressed. Then when I was sixteen years old a girl once told me I have a small dick (probably just joking I realise now but it made me feel horrible). We where having a sleepover/movienight at a friend's house and I walked around in my underwear. I was drunk so I started bragging about my “big dick” (just stupid boy stuff) and the girl told me it wasn't big and everyone started laughing. After this event I started comparing my dick to pornstars and I realised mine wasn't that big (it's above average, just not porn big) so I started to feel inadequate even though I knew I was normal. Eventually I started to get off on “cuckold/CFNM” porn shortly after this and I just couldn't help but feel like I really had a tiny dick. When I was seventeen I had my first real girlfriend, but my jealousy ruined everything. I was obsessed with the thought that I loved her more then she loved me and I felt like I didn't deserve her. She was/is kind of hot. She was very tall (6'1” I'm 6'3” so she wasn't too tall for me), she had a cute feminene appearence and her ass was great. Maybe this made it even more so that I felt like I wasn't enough for her. She actually told me that she was happy with my dick size, but I just didn't buy it. My weird fetish made me feel like she should be with a big black guy and not with me (yeah interracial porn is my main interest). Eventually I broke up with the girl because I just couldn't handle the emotional rollercoaster. I started working out shortly after that because I hoped that it would make me more manly. The opposite was true because it actually made me realise that I'm not an alpha male. I worked out very much and I started to become obsessed with my body for the next 6 months or so until eventually I decided that my body was hopeless. I started to notice how wide my hips actually are and how feminine my build is. It made me curious about my testosterone levels and I had them tested. I really felt that testosterone was the reason for all my problems. My insecurity, my weird fetish, my lack of assertiveness, my emotional instability and irritability. So I had a blood test drawn in the morning and it came back at 16 nmol/l with a normal range of 8 to 35 nmol/l. I'm still convinced that this is pretty low. Then I started to google a lot about hormones, alpha males, beta males, attractiveness in males and all that stuff. I also started smoking pot. Eventually I started to become so frustrated and angry at myself that the only thing that made me feel good was smoking weed. First I did it with friends and for the last few months I actually started to avoid people and rather stay inside, smoke weed and play videogames,. Now I'm twenty years old and my problems are getting worse. I also damaged my penis by doing jelqing (an excersise that should help your penis grow bigger) and I have chronic testicle ache because my ball got stuck in a vacuum penis pump. All of this is making me very very sad and I feel like I've allready destroyed my life and maybe suicide really is the only answer to my problems. At home I cry and scream in anger all day, while I'm a senseless zombie at school. I decided to stop smoking pot and avoid drinking much though, because when I'm drunk I often feel like I want to do more drugs (tried coke and pills when drunk) and most of the time I get in a state of mind where I feel like I should drink/do drugs till I die to end my misery. I've only stopped smoking pot for five days now, but I feel motivated to do so because my symptoms are getting worse. I now have more anxiety and more trouble remembering things. My mind seems to work very slow and I have all the symptoms of depression now. I hope you're still reading because that means that you know my whole life story now and maybe some of you can tell me wich of these things caused my problems. I feel like my cuckold fetish and depression go hand in hand and today I STILL think that testosterone might be the answer to some of my problems even though I know that I'd need to work on my cognital behaviour too. Thanks for reading all of this and I hope you people can help me find a solution. In a nutshell I really NEED to get rid of my fetish and I want to feel like a man again. Also.. is it possible that my problem is actually caused by an imbalance in my hormones, neurotransmitters and andrenall function? I mean my childhood wasn't THAT bad, right? I just "felt" bad about everything I did and what others told me.
