I haven’t felt this way before. Tw for mentions of physical illness and, well, death and unreality

I have DID and at first I thought that’s what it was, the symptoms. It’s just, everyone around me keeps appearing as “fake” or “real” or “like me (in the sense of also being dead)”. It’s likely dissociation but it keeps coming back and bothering us. Memories worse than usual, honestly everything’s just been wrong and off for ...

I need help with the upstairs tenant, a large, malicious and vindictive homosexual, and his boy friend (whom I'd probably get along with under different circumstances).

My background:
I'm an older male with PTSD from childhood trauma. I'm a recovered alcoholic with almost ten years of sobriety (meaning I haven't had even a sip of alcohol in almost ten years). I've been without a single family member for over ten years but, considering the family ...

Hello,
I researched on the internet about MBTi personality test and got different opinions. Some people say that it is not reliable, but some people say otherwise. If you are a psychologist, can you give the right answer here?

Hi,

Can someone please explain why someone would have a "compulsive need" to always do that's that would make everyone hate them?

I'm fairly certain I have a mental illness but when I look up the things that go on in my head I can't find anything that applies to me. Its hard for me to put into words how I feel but I'll try my best. Most of the time I feel empty, but when I start to think about who I am I have many contradicting thoughts that don't stop for hours. Sometimes it's hard ...

On the night of December 21, 2020, I was woken up from my sleep by a demonic sounding voice telling me to masturbate to a woman that I do not like. I resisted the urge, my body was shaking. Then after a few moments, the voice told me to masturbate or else I wouldn't be able to go back to sleep for the rest of the night. After what felt like 2 hours of resisting ...

So I am reading this article

Can someone for the love of GOD help me comprehend something. Why the hell do families want anything to do with Serial killers or anyone who kills others at all ?

Hello, not sure if it is a right place to post this, but I need an advice. A sister of one of my friends is not well. She got gradually got worse in the last 15 years or so.

Sorry for the inconvenience but I just need to...
I am what my therapist would call a schizoid in development with melancholic temperament.
When I lie, even if it's the smallest lie ever, I feel the urge to correct what I've just said.
I want to cut myself but I don't.
I,like, when I discovered ASPD, started having the paranoia that I had ASPD. I cried everyday even with the contradictions (I love my family, ...
