I have been married for just over twenty years to a woman I suspect may have NPD. My nurse sister-in-law introduced me to the idea after my wife told me she wanted a divorce. We have three children together (18F, 15M, 11F). I have been very concerned about her behaviour since she expressed her desire for the divorce partly because of her complete lack of emotion when discussing the effects this will have on the ...

I kind of don't know where to start with this. It's been a long time since I last posted here.

A few months ago, I went to a very unorthodox treatment facility a thousand miles away. The program was supposed to be 9 months to a year, but they ended up ending the program because they thought I was a "bad fit," despite promising they would NOT do that. So I end up going back ...

Hi all,

Just wanted to share something that's new to me and that I don't quite know how to handle.
I have had POCD for years now. But last night I had some weird dreams. Throughout, I was very aroused (excuse the graphic nature of this!)...it was almost like a 'sex'dream. I remember at one point there being a lot of little girls round for some reason, and I ended up 'letting go' and enjoying ...

I'm still together with my HPD girlfriend (already one year now), but just in the recent weeks some things happened, that made me *much* more relaxed to all the related "craziness" and I seriously wish, this would've happened already long time ago.

1. See that it's not about you - I gave her more space and saw her doing all the things with just everyone, potential friends, which she looses then, and even family! Logically ...

Hey, i'm new here. just joined.

i'm a 25 year old guy, and i'm the somewhat sensitive and emotional type.

I HOPE I'M POSTING IN THE RIGHT SECTION, in case i'm not, mods, please transfer this thread to the correct one. I posted under "Relatioship" because...although it's not a girlfriend issue here, it IS an interpersonal relationship crisis involving a family member.

i've always been very,very close to my cousin. We spoke very regularly, opened ...

Hello, I just joined in hopes of finding and getting feedback from people I may have things in common with. I'm a young teen and am a recovering addict. I attend Drug Abuse Program meetings and currently have a sponsor and am working my 12 steps.
I used marijuana, Adderall, Valium, Klonopin, MDMA and psilocybin mushrooms. Most of my use was done in solitude. I justified my use as self medication for untreated chronic depression. ...

Thi morning when i was hald asleep, half awake , i normally create a fantasy world because its more fun then the real world. But this timd i tried to imagine me with a girl i like (she ...

...when you were growing up? I think mine was. Deceit filled my head with a lot of strange beliefs that the adults knew were false but apparently didn't care to correct. I remember having skeptical thoughts from an early age, but they were usually dismissed ("You can't prove my _____ doesn't exist") or discouraged ("Every time someone says, 'I do not believe in fairies,' somewhere there is a fairy that falls down dead," "If you ...

I was watching her kids so she and her husband could go out for their anniversary. She came home and looked at me before she began to cry. She hugged me and I could smell the alcohol on her. She then dropped/threw her purse and jacket onto the floor and went to the bathroom. I asked her husband what was wrong and he just said she'd had a lot to drink...

I stood in the ...

I dont know for sure if I am in the right place all I know is I am very bothered about recent findings of my husband. We have a pretty good sex life but I find that he always needs to use a rather large toy on me if you know what I mean! Well a few months ago I found that he was going on some very unusual porn and when I looked up ...
