If you know what it looks like as it relates to you, you have something to focus on, orientate yourself towards.

I imagine you’d probably end up being treated as an interesting specimen rather than a human being.

You're smartly dressed and goal-orientated?
I like to think so...
it was Reinhard Heydrich he went for, so he might just have been saying I wouldn’t be popular in Czechoslovakia.

That's a shame; the Christmas markets in Prague will be starting soon.

Therapy as always been a bit of a bust for me. I usually get stuck at the diagnostic stage. The therapist has sometimes been helpful post porphyric crisis as the effect the condition has on my mental state causes be distortions which would upset friends/family.

Beyond that family, friends, partner, pets, boss, and my various mentors have all proved themselves more useful that any therapist. I had a clinical psychologist liken me to a nazi once, which was highly unprofessional and irritating since he wasn’t any the wiser on how to deal with me.

That being said if you’re facing off against NPD or AsPD I’m not sure there is much of a choice.


I like this suggestion, I doubt I’ll go back into therapy unless I have some sort of full on mental breakdown which at this point I wouldn’t completely rule out.

I don’t think I can have a dog in my current situation because I’m never home during the week and it would piss and shlt all over the house and probably eat my furniture too. Although I would prefer a dog, maybe I should get a couple cats, or a tortoise or something.

Get a reptile. They're more interesting that a goldfish and can go for days without needing anything.

I had a cat that used to climb the curtains and scratch the shlt out of my furniture. I put it on a leash in the bathroom once before I went to work so it couldn't go anywhere and scratch everything. I left the window open a bit so it could get some fresh air. When I got home from work it had ripped up the shower curtain and the toilet roll (I forgot about it being able to reach those). There was a mess everywhere), and the cat had jumped out the window with the leash on and hung itself. Damn thing wasn't dead though.

It's true what they say, cats have more than one life. That cat should have been dead. I ended up getting rid of it anyway.

The point is, cats are a nuisance. If they're outside they're killing wildlife, if they're inside they're scratching shlt up, leaving hair everywhere and stinking the house out with their smelly piss and shlt (you really have to change the cat litter regularly - that's assuming they even use it).

I had a pet turtle once. They're boring.

Lol my ex used to bring cats home allll the time and then one day, the cat wouldn’t be there anymore I’d ask where did the cat go? Ohh I opened the window and he jumped out and didn’t come back. A month later I’m at her mothers house and I see the fuking cat. I said WTF? Ohh that’s a different cat, BS it is, she got sick of taking care of it and gave them away, let them out, who knows what else she was doing with them?

When I bought my cat a scratching board he immediately went there and did what it was supposed to do, he's been using it ever since and he's never before or after destroyed any-thing.
He comes and pokes at me in a very specific way if he wants to sleep in my lap, or if he wants to play with me. He always asks first.
He has never peed in anywhere but in his litter box. He talks and interacts with me a lot and he is just thrilled and meowing loud when I come home or when I wake up in the morning. He follows me everywhere, also in the toilet, and if he is not sleeping in my lap, he is curled up next to me purring.

They call me the animal whisperer.

My cats clean their own litter box, prepare their own meals, and fold my laundry. If I let them out, they always return with a wad of cash in their mouths. They also do lots of little things for me like check my ps4 for updates and manage my Twitter account. Sometimes they'll catch a bus downtown, and with their adorableness, will lure celebrities back to my apartment who then will have sex with me.

I don't know where you got your impression of what cats are like, Reaper, but you clearly aren't living in reality.
