News of Psychforums : Psychology and Mental Health forum.

I posted a little while back about my husband, and now I have come to a point where I don't have any idea what to do. I am pretty sure he is borderline; he has 6 out of the 9 characteristics. When he is in that "mode", he cannot be rationalized with, denies past events, says he is never appreciated, never loved and we all hate him, and makes stories up that i cannot convince ...

So I joined this site that tracks and charts different symptons of different mental illnesses and I have to say... I think it's creating that mirror effect because I just looked at my chart for the first time since I started and I couldn't believe what I saw... my moods have been all over the place and while I know I've had some high's and low's in the past week or so; I didn't realize ...

I was the "other woman" and N has a steady girlfriend for the last 6 years, who he pretends does not exist.

His girlfriend stays with him despite all the horrible things he does, including lying, cheating with other woman, pretending, and D&D her many times. She has told him that she will "always be there for him, and love him, no matter what"...

I imagine those words must be music to a narcissist's years. ...

Sexual addiction is something that most people refuse to even consider plausible becuase it is 'natural'.

I heard since pornography and masturbation are secretive gestures that going public about them is vital in addiction recovery so here I am. My name is DJ and I'm 23. I first looked into pornography when I was 12 years old and it has plauged me on and off since. Since I'm sexually mature though it is too hard ...

it has ruined my last 2 serious relationships because ive cheated compulsively and im not a bad ...

How do you find the drive to do things that you want/need to do?

Hi all

I'd like to discuss this aspect of Narcissism, indicated in the title.

I was wondering - by psyh dynamic, out of which " black whole" do the N's draw their sense of entitlement? Is it the ego, the N trips, climate/environment in which things happen to be favorable for them to exhibit entitlement, or is it something else? It's as if they don't have any "tools" in their head to gauge the situation ...

I am going to be truthful here and this is a pure but truthful fact, I was actually addicted to the forums I used to visit. I was actually thinking of the posters as if they were real people and I was thinking more about them rather than my OWN LIFE.
My health actually suffered but here are some steps to take.
Make sure the Internet is in a PUBLIC PLACE, like the living room ...

About 2 and a half years ago i started dating/dealing with a woman....this woman is and was incredible, her mind is so deep and her heart is big as any ive ever seen.... but let me step back to catch you all up..

I first met her through a mutual friend and we began to talk which led to us meeting having sex and such, at this point we werent dealing with each other in ...

Gauze is so innocent. So soft against my cheek. Blank with no assumptions.

Sanitary, sane.
Sanitary, sane.

Its mantra to the dead.

Covering my lies, never asking. Never judging. Disinterest in its tiny eyes.

Sanitary, sane.
Sanitary, sane.

It soaks up what I've bled.

This chaos that I hear. Strangled by a blade. Yet this fabric lets no one see.

Sanitary, sane.
Sanitary, sane.

It tells me what's ahead.
