I'm new here.
I was in a relationship for 5 years with a man who I now believe has Obsessive compulsive personality disorder.
He definitely fits quite bit of of it. he doesn't hoard anything but money, and he does complete tasks. Other than that, he fits the description almost perfectly.
For the first four years we were together, he showed no signs of being abusive and does not fit an abuser's personality. He has ...

Ok firstly I have recently been diagnosed but not on meds yet as I have major issues and my Pdoc says if I take meds before my issues are sorted I will probably be so stressed I will go manic anyway. I hear many people describe different aspects of bipolar but the aspects they describe are not the one I feel the most. When I go manic I believe god made me to be free. ...

I am not sure how aware schizophrenics are of their situation mentally, but I am awake and alert way too much for my liking. It seems I know of every little possible hurt and heartache.

I know I just posted my letter to my AA friend, but to go from being in a pretty good mood to wanting to drink myself drunk and blind then take that silver bullet pill to die is a pretty ...

To start off with, I didnt know where to post this at, so If its in the wrong thread i am sorry.

I have constant obsessive thoughts... they are mostly about nothing specific...but I tend to way-over analyze things ....constantly... I try to make myself stop thinking aBOUT WHATEVER IT IS BUT I CANT, THE THOUGHT COULD BE ABOUT HOW RED A CAR IS. AND I WONT BE ABLE TO GET MY MIND OFF OF ...

I know this is the wrong place to post this.. I don't have Schizoid Personality Disorder.. But whatever.. These are a couple things.. I don't really know how to string them all together to make sense, so.. yeah.
I don't care about anyone I know, I don't want to care about them. I keep thinking I'll meet new people that I actually like, and the future will be better suddenly. I also keep thinking it's ...

I feel like this forum doesn't need another thread of this sort, but I also feel like the next stop in me moving on with my life is to talk to people and be completely honest.
