Well...

I owe you all an apology for that outburst of mine the other day, where I said a few things I perhaps should not have publicised, so here it is: I am sorry.

I've since calmed down.

On another note!
I've been to see someone, finally!
I went to see a man, on the NHS Adult Mental Health thingy. The man did treat me a bit like an idiot at times, but on the whole it was a good experience. He just asked me if I took street drugs (obviously because if I'm taking LSD for example, and thinking it's a bit strange that I'm seeing pink elephants then I shouldn't be at a mental health clinic!) and asked me to write him a letter, and made out that I might find it hard to write one.

I've also gone to a private psychiatrist three times, where I talk to a different, very nice man for an hour about my feelings, he writes a few things down, and just talks to me and makes me happy. He gets me to shout and go mad, and I swear alot, but he still treats me like an adult and a real person, and I go out feeling really good about myself and happy!
I think that he is VERY good at his job. He's called Phil.

I haven't had a diagnosis yet, but Phil keeps talking about the wiring of my brain not being quite right.

Wow, being encouraged to shout and swear. I'd love that.

Good luck with all this, 50 Hz.

Good luck, hope you get everything works out for you ^_^.

Welcome to the land of Asperger's, where nobody holds grudges against each other While it's natural to be fearful that people will not forgive you, you must remember that we are exactly like you (and are not like 'normal' people). We've all had our 'bad' threads here, including me before I was made a moderator (and then administrator). Anger is a natural human response to things, and yuor apology is not needed on this forum.

Hey 50HZ,

Glad you are getting some professional help with things. I would listen to Phil and maybe dump the other health worker. The yelling and shouting therapy sounds interesting, maybe it is psychotherapy. I see a psychiatrist on Tuesday who specialises in psychotherapy modalities.

Stay positive on the therapy and work to heel yourself. Impulsive anger never solves the real problem, actually causes a multitude of more negative issues.

Good Luck

I lost it on here a while back and couldn't understand why. I misunderstood someone's post, went ape-sh*t then scuttled off into a corner for while. Anyhow, people around me started noticing a pattern where I'd get all arsey and stomp around until I'd eaten at which point I go all placid. Type 2 diabetes test later in the week.

Isn't getting old fun.

I have the same pattern. I'll be quite easy to agitate until I've eaten.

Interesting. Anyone else the same, particularly under 40's?

I eat when I'm stressed, but I don't get stressed by simply not eating. I'm a teenager though.
It's funny how on the holidays I'm probably eating around 500 calories a day because I'm not stressed at all(I know it's not healthy, but I don't even think about food when I'm not stressed), and then on school days it increases exponentially the point where I'm over-eating.

Phil wasn't there today, I had Simon instead.

He put me on Citalopram for 3 weeks for my mood swings - let's see how it goes!
