I open myself, make myself love, and what do i get? More pain. I was a fool to think I could ever make a girl happy. In the end, I was nothing but....what? I wish i could cut her head open and see inside, to behold what processes could lead someone to go back on 2 years of love and promises? She won't even talk to me online. I would rather be hated, an object ...

Hello all.

I'm Jacki. I was dx'd with bipolar I disorder, borderline personality disorder, schizotypal personality disorder, PTSD, anxiety & insomnia over the past seven years. I am also a self-injurer. I have had three inpatient hospitalizations and one partial inpatient program, all around 2002-2003. I have since acquired a strong resistance to inpatient hospitalization, and probably will never go back unless I'm committed.

I am currently in a crisis diversion program that I started ...

Firstly this site looks like a fantastic resource and I will definitely make use of it now I am registered. The thing is I've only sought this out because I have got to 'unload' somewhere and anonymously on the internet seems the only outlet right now.

It's Friday morning, the sun is shining, I have a job with a forgiving boss and am doing ok at it. I live in a city centre flat with ...

Okay, just so I don't drive the poor folks here that already know that there have ASPD, I'll warn you in advance. I am trying to figure myself out.

Basically I was severely abused as a child according to "shrinks" and one shrink at 19 said I had RAD (Reactive Attachment Disorder, inhibited subtype). He made this brilliant diagnosis after asking me if I knew my parents' addresses and phone numbers, which I didn't (and ...

Thanks in advance to anyone who responds. I will try to make this as simple as possible. Basically when I was in my mid 20s I met a friend who was about 51 then, who was/is male to female trans. She told me then she was sexually attracted to men. I don't care about sexual orientation and the friendship was fine. I have anxiety issues and get panic attacks so I drank a lot in ...

Hello! I want to tell you my story because I cannot keep it in my mind. I am very sorry for my poor English as I am an international student in an english speaking country and I am a little bit nervous to talk about the things that happened to me.
I am a 22 year old BA student (it's my first year).
3 weeks ago I had a dinner with my 2 good friends. ...

I haven't taken the time to see if this has been covered on this forum, so forgive me if it has.

I was raised in Scientology and was subjected to hundreds of hours of Scientology "processing" called "Training Routines" and "Auditing". I reached their "clear" state at age 12 (unheard of) and was on track to become the youngest ever to reach the upper levels of indoctrination called the "OT" levels.

Well, I went a ...

This post is for those that have cared for a RAD child (or those that may have had RAD as a child and "recovered"). Are you concerned that they (kids with RAD you care for) will develop ASPD as adults? I know not all kids with RAD develop ASPD, but if you care for such a child, what steps do you take to get them appropriate treatment? I have been interested in RAD for years ...

Binge eating has for the most part been a big issue contributing to my obesity and other mental problems as well. I was raised in a household where my mom would give me food as a reward and because it was just something she did. I have always been fat and binge eating increased my weight significantly. I remember eating a lot of food when I was faced with a lot of rejection from peers ...
