I’ll try and keep this succinct because it is 4:30am and afraid this might sound rantish. Anyways, here goes. I happened to stumble upon APD on wikipedia tonight, and after reading various website sources about it, I was shocked with how accurately it described me; my perception of myself, my interactions with others, my life in general. I’m aware of the obvious problems with self-diagnosis, but I can’t help but be convinced this time around. ...
