How many of you experiences those two things? I am not sure I recognize their affect in my life or if they even occur. How about you guys? Sometimes I think, "huh...I must be stressed out." Those days I am usually aggressive or violent for seemingly no reason. But somehow that diagnosis would fall short for nons/norms. Anyways, a good discussion on stress and anxiety? Any stories or experiences to share?

It took us about three hours to get her to go, we had to lie and agree that we would also check ourselves in because she said we needed to as well. The man evaluated her and then came to talk to us about ...

I hate my mother. Nothing changes that. I neither like her, nor love her. Her attempts at getting me to show any real love towards her are futile. I'm her next project, she has those; projects. She wants to 'fix' me like i'm fixable by someone as deluded and flawed as her.

All I want is my distance from her. And no, distance never changes the way I feel about her. It just means I ...

I don't really feel wronged, by sex.
I haven't experienced sex being imposed upon me, though.

Right now, I am slightly afraid that maybe you are nincompoops.
END TRIPPERING.

Like a psychopath is missing the empathical "circuits", I feel that there are some circuits which I am missing, too.

Or perhaps I am too smart to think about things so "low-level" ...

Hi, I'm 27 years old and I've had symptoms of anxiety or PTSD for the past 19 years. Until now I've managed to deal with my issues but unfortunately they're getting worse. I've tried counseling, with multiple counselors I've never been depressed at all but my anxiety symptoms are almost constant and just keep coming back. I've always been afraid of taking medications because I've been told that they are addictive and I have a ...
