I recall an event in my life when i was 12 years old.
I invited 2 of my buddy over just to relax and talk, suddenly they got excited over something on the TV.
I felt their energy, i told them "You both shut the ###$ up", as my eyes started getting red and going out of my head, i repeated it again. They would not stop talking and acting silly so i went in ...

Hi. I am desperately seeking any support and assistance so that I can hold on to my life and relationships. I am in psychotherapy and seriously considering one of those places where I can live for a month or more while have aggressive individual and group therapy. I found a promising one in California and even contacted them but now realize that was impulsive because I live in Indiana ...

I have been getting flashbacks or memories of abuse...in the dreams (mainly) I hear the old Godzilla TV show going on in the living room..and I'm in my parents room with my dad. I see my touching him. I wake up crying. I don't know if he touched me. I don't know who to tell....I don't want to tear my family apart if it isn't true. I have no idea if this is real or ...

I'm sure this is a shared experience. Don't know if anyone can give any advice.
Will try to keep this short.

I moved out of the state twice in my life, and both times I did really well, but within a few months of being back here I quickly slipped back into old ways. I've gotten better at picking my friends, and better at being a introvert. I tend to avoid people I know ...

I haven’t visited this forum in a while and avoided reading any post, then today I realized that I haven’t passed by here ever since I had my panic attack, I don’t want to force myself,i want to give myself sometimes,.. I just want to say hi and I am hoping all of you are fine and doing better than me, im not very religious but when I pray I’ll make sure I include you ...

Do you cry?

If so, how often, and why? What usually causes your crying?

I rarely cry, and when I do, it's only during movies.

A lot of times I have noticed with my obsessions that they can be so unbelievably convincing that I can't make a distinction between a feeling that i totally don't want to act on at all as opposed to an urge that i feel is real and desired, a conscious decision. Despite me knowing that the consequences of acting on the obsessions that I have will likely lead me into serious trouble, my OCD, the ...

Hello,
If someone has DID and is unaware of it, How and when,why do the alters try and let the host know that they are there and are real? thanks.

Members of the forum with APD, imagine this situation. You are wanted by the police for a very serious crime ( something like murder or multiple armed robberies ) and you know you will be facing a long prison sentence if you are arrested. You are armed with a gun and you have your family with you ( wife and kid or husband and kid if you're a woman) and have taken them to a ...
