I realized the other day just how oddly my brain works sometimes. I'll explain;

On a radio commercial, I heard the words "touch tone". The words repeated in my mind briefly. Then came this.....

"Touch tone. Fire Stone. Around the Fireside. Volcano rock." :mrgreen: **I actually smiled like this at the end, lol

Somehow, those first two words set off some chain reaction of association in ...

Hi there,

A Long story to get to the point.. bear with me please..

I have been married for almost one year now, and honestly the road to that has not been easy.

My heritage is Indian, but I grew up in Europe. Me and my sibling both grew up with the "european" mentality, but we got the indian culture pushed upon us, as often happens in these situations.

The issues started mainly when we ...

I don't think I've ever had a good relationship with my body, I've always hated the way I look, too fat. Anyway for months and months I was forcing myself to throw up and then eventually I stopped. I didn't purge for a good few ...

my heart is quite heavy feeling. I'm posting here because there is nothing really to reply to.

I thought that reading other peoples experiences would bring me some perspective. In a way it has but it's got me reflecting on my life... my upbringing... and who i am today. I'm not going to blame the past for my problems. I've pretty much dealt with most of that. I've accepted a lot of it and i've ...

i was wondering if anyone else felt like i did about fantasy and unusual things....

*now that i've found a schizoid personality forum, i can't resist making OVER 9000 random threads*

for me, the more something is out of the ordinary, the better. i love fantasy, and things that don't really make sense, i guess... things that are ordinary and that you've been around your whole life seem really boring to me. you know, i'd ...

Whenever I stop my medications abruptly it does not seem to take long until I'm sent careening into a hypomanic state. Has anyone else experienced this?
