Subject: truth time! what is really wrong with you?
Written By: moparnut on 10/18/04 at 8:51 am
Time to dig down deep and face the truth, what is really wrong with you? is that why you're really alone?

i'm needy. i need to be mothered and pampered. i can't face the real world, thats why i hide in fantasy worlds of role playing games and sci-fi movies.
normal people scare me, regular wage earning types who love sports and backyard barbeques and talk about how perfect their suburbans lives are. really, they do. i surround myself with geeks and goths, i can relate to them, i'm "normal" around outcasts...is that so wrong?

That I am far from normal. I actually to an extent go out of my way just not to be normal. I don't follow fads or styles because it annoys me when people start copying everyone else in dress or the way the act. I just do things and dress the way that I like and could care less what other people do. Doing this has caused me to be an outcast in some ways but I would much prefer to be an outcast than be just like everyone else.

Said it in one, Kenlos.
Me to dig down deep . . .
I 'catastrophize' a lot. Negative thinking spirals out of control sometimes and I make a fairly innocuous situation into something tragic. Couple this with a fear of social rejection and that plays havoc when you try to actually make friends with people.
What about yourself, Moparnut? I think it's your turn to lie on the couch. ;)

And here's today's question, folks...
What is normal...?
A lifetime's supply of air to the first person with a plausible answer...!!
Me, myself and I have terrible 'face-to-face' social skills...don't kid yourselves that I'm this chatty in real life...!!

Heh heh. It's an unneccessary question, Paul. Normality is what people should strive against - Winston Smith had the right idea.
I certainly can appreciate your last line. I find it much easy to write things down than to say things (the brummie accent doesn't help things either . . . ::) ;D). The fingers can work freely but the voicebox always seems imprisoned in a mental cell.

In my opnion there really isnt a normal. Everyone probably has there own idea of what normal is. Like for me normal is the way that the majority of the society acts, dresses, among other things. And as I said in my earlier post I try not to be like them.

I don't blame you, Kenlos. I'm a social outcast too (I'm a geek in the day and a goth at nights and weekends... how much of an outcast is that?) and I'm too shy. I'm a complete extrovert; I'm always talking and interacting with people (and scaring them!), but it's pretty much an act. :P

First of all, I have diabetes. Second of all, I've gotten to the point where I've given up on taking care of myself healthwise. This includes doctor's visits, some hygiene, diet and exercise. My room has also been left unclean. A lot of people would try to avoid to be near me. Other times people try to advise my on my health and I tune them out. Maybe part of my upbringing. And I am taking Zoloft for depression and my blood pressure has also risen to the high catagory. My dad is diabetic also, as is most of his family.

Okay Indy...if you wish to 'tune me out' at this point, that's fine...
But for your own sake, DO NOT FOOL AROUND WITH DIABETES...danger can lurk at the slightest opportunity...
Whether yours is a cry for help or not (and forgive me if I'm being way out of line), I, and I'm sure plenty of others here too, certainly wouldn't want you to give up...
If this has lifted your spirits in some small way, then that's great...
Please...take care of yourself...

Yes, diabetes does run in families. My nan had it before she died (not of diabetes) and my uncle on the same side has it as well. My sister continues the 'tradition'. I am a very fortunate person not to have it myself and get checked for it at the doctors every few years.
I really agree with Paul, Indy. I appreciate that diabetes is hard work (how many times have I seen my sister have a hypoglycemic fit?). It seems you have a lot of problems related to stress. What is it you are really missing out on that is making you feel the way you do? Once you answer that, the rest may slot into place. I, like a lot of members on the board, really hope you can pull through with this - I'm sure you will.

Ok, I am going to reveal a bit about myself. I have many insecurities but I try not to let them get the better of me. I am also lazy and very messy. This is the one thing that Carlos and I argue about-he is a neat-freak and I am a slob-the Odd Couple? Ok, we are not as bad as Felix and Oscar. I am not a slob to the point of being gross, just don't put things away so they pile up.

I reckon you will have with Robin. However, I will have to stress to you, Howard not to rush this. If you sincerely like her, you will go through this journey of simple gestures with her, regardless of how difficult this may seem.
If you last the distance, Howard, you will have your girlfriend.  :)
Good luck.

Ah bless. I understand entirely. Even putting clothes away requires a special sort of motivation. ::)
The girlfriend and I are similar (this happens a lot in relationships). Unfortunately, I am a little like Oscar and she is like Felix. As in your situation, we aren't extreme opposites either . . .

Why do you think your relationship with your last girlfriend was 'hell'?
Great. Take it one step at a time and make that date a steady goal (without rushing towards it). From what you have told us, Howard, she seems like a great girl.

I have trouble saying no to people. I get stuck doing things I don't really want to do because I hate to tell people no.  I always feel tired. But never get a good nights sleep so then I get grouchy and snap at people when I shouldn't.  I don't take enough time for myself because I feel guilty that I should have spent more time with my daughter. I could go on, but that's enough for now! :(

Hmm! Yes. I can understand you not saying no to people (you seem like such a sweet person). However, don't confuse assertiveness with aggression (especially when it is used right ;)). If you explain to people why you say no, if they are in any way reasonable, they will understand.
Being good to yourself is being good to others in the long run - they don't get snapped at (quite so often anyway ;D).
Practice saying no with a reason behind it and you will feel better, no problem. :)

You know, I used to do that as well but I came across as preachy (I still do sometimes even though that is not my intention). I always wanted people to help themselves out of bad situations so badly (they always complain to me about them) but some people will only help themselves when you let them get on with it (funny enough ::)).

Man, that sounds so familar. I have people come up to me to talk me about their problems-some people I don't even know or hardly know. (I posted about one in the "What do you do" thread") I guess I emit some kind of aura or something that tells people it is ok to talk to me. I guess that is a good thing-still not too sure. :-\\ But, many of times I do extend my hand to let people know that it is ok.

It's a shame how love and obsession are mistaken for the same thing. People think it's romantic if they lock everyone else out of their lives. Howard, I love my fiance to bits but I could not be around her 24/7 (and she would say the same about me no doubt ;D).

Ah well. If you keep your composure, women like that. Sometimes it's best to say absolutely nothing than the wrong thing. Never be afraid of silences in conversations. It doesn't mean someone is ignoring you, they may simply be thinking about what they will say next.

Do you make eye contact when you talk and listen? Very important that. It shows that the person you are talking to is important to you. If you look around while you talk, rightly or wrongly, the other person is going to feel like you are not interested in the conversation.

Hmm! Yes. I can understand you not saying no to people (you seem like such a sweet person). However, don't confuse assertiveness with aggression (especially when it is used right ;)). If you explain to people why you say no, if they are in any way reasonable, they will understand.
Being good to yourself is being good to others in the long run - they don't get snapped at (quite so often anyway ;D).
Practice saying no with a reason behind it and you will feel better, no problem. :)
Thanks for the advice! But, another problem I have is, I don't take advice well!! ;) ;D

What is a 'daddy complex', Tanya? I understand it is to do with your dad but how does it work?
Basically, I really didn't have the best relationship with my dad, but I still loved unconditionally. My issues with him dominated much of my emotional-mental-spiritual-sexual life. For example, I used to exclusively date older men to find the love (non-physical) love I wanted from my dad. I lost my virginity early (14) b/c I sought some attention and affection. Emotionally-Mentally, I wasn't trusting of men in general and had this "get them, before they get you" attitude. My husband over time is helping me focus on such issues.
I hope I answered your question. I can joke about it from time to time though b/c it gets me through it so I don't become a nutcase!

Are there any parent/child clubs you could get involved with? Or just talking to parents at school drop-off, play group, swimming lessons or whatever?
Do you children have particular friends who you could invite round to play and ask their parent to come for coffee at the same time?
Most of the adults I know outside of work are people with children of similar ages to my own. We tend to bump into each other at school/nursery/swimming/dancing/parties etc. One of the dads once joked that in 10 years or so we'll all be stood together outside discos or concerts waiting to take them home.

I am with you on this. When I was in school we didn't know what ADD is, but I am definitely

Howard, talking to fast is not the most you have to contend with. Telling any girl you may have designs on that you are a porno fan is bad enough, most women think we are addicted to all forms of prono without us telling them, so when you tell them it only makes them think that all their stereotypes of men are on the mark. The thing is that since that was all that came to your mind when you blurted that out, you might want to consider backing off on the porno, getting the picture? If I, who don't know you at all gets the impression that you have to much porno in your life, can you imagine what she thought when you burlted that out to her in person? Howard give up the porno, before you screw up your chances of finding someone meaningful in your life. Although if you do find a woman as engaged in porno as you, then WAY TO GO! marry the wench!

This was my sentiments when writing my post, Mona. Honesty is the best policy (I told my girlfriend I had a small amount of pornography before I moved in with her so that she didn't find out accidentally). It's just there is a difference between being honest and shooting yourself in the foot before a promising relationship develops. :)
I have been told by my girlfriend that there is nowt wrong with pornography (providing it is all above the age of consent of course) so I live with the idea without too much guilt these days.

It's great to hear that you are an independent person with independent ideas, Icy. Treating fools lightly is something I am not known for either(despite my calm demeanour). Try not to confuse calmness with submission though. Getting hostile never does any good because it gives the other person a right to react back in the same manner (and the right to stick to their views, however wrong they may be).
It is great to see you on the boards. :)

I figured out my worst problem.... I'm unstable. I can't keep one emotion for more then a few hours. As soon as something good {no matter how trivial or small} ends, I become depressed. A lot of the time, It hurts to laugh or be happy. Physically hurts as soon as I stop laughing. Sometimes, I'll think for weeks on end about killing myself, sometimes, I just seem well adjusted, sometimes I feel like I'll never come down and I annoy people. More often, I'm low then high. People often ask me if I recieve psychiatric help, and they say it in a joking way. Oftentimes, however, I can tell that they mean it. People are geniunely concerned for me, people who hardly have a relationship with me. Other people haven't seen both sides, and don't know how to react when the other comes out. People who saw me normal for 3 days actually started crying when they saw me depressed. Things were quite awkward for a bit after that. People who saw depressed me {A lot of you initially caught me in a phase of depression when I started out. Originally, I was bitter a lot, which goes with the depression. Then I was just depressed.} weren't sure how to react to normal me. People have told me I scare them. I don't want to scare people, but when it hurts, it hurts. I can only hold it in for so long, and I don't have much resistance over my feelings. I act well when emotion isn't genuine. I can become another person, but not when the only thing on my mind is death. I can't do it then. I can stifle my happiness, I can hold back my hysterics, I can restrain excitement. I can not say the same concerning melancholy. Every day I wonder if I'll stay in a phase, leave, or just add another layer on. The most trivial things set me off, and it hurts so much. Even happiness hurts a lot sometimes.

I am a notorious procrastinator.
I've lied and told people (including some people here, sorry) that I am no longer depressed. To be truthful when it comes to depression I feel like I sitting on a fence with people throwing rocks at me. It's like I can fall off at any minute. I used to take medication but they made me feel like a vegetable. SO now ciggarettes and insane amounts of Pepsi keep me in check, no joke. Whenever I run out of cigarettes I drown myself in Pepsi and vice versa BUT god forbid that I run out of both, I become mentally fragile. Someone could just look at me wrong and I go over the edge.
I've become such an expert at faking it, that i don't know how I feel anymore.

1. I have a very poor self-image.
2. I tend to think like a critic too much.
3. I always play Devil's Advocate, when I guess people just want blind agreement.
4. I tend to hate people by default until they prove themselves worthy.
5. The smallest things can set off extended periods of depression.
6. I get into horrible fits of anger that I relieve in extremely harmful ways.
7. I have rapid mood changes.
8. I can be very quiet and anti-social in social situations.
9. I give people too many second chances.
10. I tend to have a dry sense of humor people don't get sometimes.
11. I'm too critical of my own work that many good works get destroyed in anger.
12. I find it difficult to follow the advice I give.
13. I'm only good with words when it's for someone else's situation.
14. I tend to act as more of a therapist and less of a friend, offering advice when sympathy was all that was really wanted.
15. I get very jealous and angry of others when they find happiness while I suffer in a similar situation.
16. I tend to be obsessive.
17. I lack co-ordination.
18. I capitalize words throughout my sentences at total random some of the time.
19. I find being around people painful some of the time.
20. I don't give myself enough credit a lot of the time, and nothing can really change my view once it's set.. and it's almost always to a negative self-image.
^ that's done in short. There's much more.

I have a bad temper when something goes wrong.
I sometimes think bad things always happen to me in that I'm just flat out am a "bad luck person."
I am not outgoing as I should be. I don't go to bars or nightclubs like other people my age do. I live in Jersey so its nightclubs and bars central. I prefer bookstores and the park.
Women Troubles-I go for women who are out of my league and sometimes I think I;m too nice of a guy to have a girlfriend.
I am a procastinator on the weekends when it comes to doing chores around the house.
I should give myself good advice instead of giving other people good advice.
I remember useless things such as what happened in a NFL game like 5 years ago. Example: when the Vikings got beat by the Falcons in the 98-99 NFC Championship game or when Philly made that 4th down and 25 yards to go and got 26 yards on a pass play to get a first down in a playoff game against green bay in 2002-2003.I remember every bodystyle car of from 1990-present. Yet I'm really not determined to go to college.

I'm usually a very laid-back, calm person, but when something p*sses me off, it really p*sses me off, and usually ends up broken. The best examples of this awful temper coming into play would be:
* Broken control pad - PS2
* Smashed number pad on keyboard
* Broken PS2 games : The Sims, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City , Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas , The Simpsons: Hit & Run
* Broken PC mouse
* Broke my Game Boy Colour twice in the space of a month - once headbutted, once thrown out of the window
* Cracked my tv screen
* Computers which no longer work due to being punched/thrown/hit with a hammer: Sega Mega Drive, Sega Master System
* None of my original PlayStation controls work because of being thrown across the room/yanked out of the socket
* My old PC now makes a quiet buzzing noise after I thumped it
As you can see, I need to watch my temper before I break something even more valuable :o

I think the reverse at times. Whenever I am interested in a woman they are usually seeing somebody else or women I don't like back. They are good guys out there. I should know I am one of them.

I think the reverse at times. Whenever I am interested in a woman they are usually seeing somebody else or women I don't like back. They are good guys out there. I should know I am one of them. I just don't want to go to a bar or a nightclub. I think women on this board should try online dating. I didn't work for me but for different people it can work I think.
Yeah that's true. I'm too young for online dating though lol, actually I don't really have any interest in dating. My friends think I'm weird.  ::)
yes they are!!

I'm usually a very laid-back, calm person, but when something p*sses me off, it really p*sses me off, and usually ends up broken. The best examples of this awful temper coming into play would be:
* Broken control pad - PS2
* Smashed number pad on keyboard
* Broken PS2 games : The Sims, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City , Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas , The Simpsons: Hit & Run
* Broken PC mouse
* Broke my Game Boy Colour twice in the space of a month - once headbutted, once thrown out of the window
* Cracked my tv screen
* Computers which no longer work due to being punched/thrown/hit with a hammer: Sega Mega Drive, Sega Master System
* None of my original PlayStation controls work because of being thrown across the room/yanked out of the socket
* My old PC now makes a quiet buzzing noise after I thumped it
As you can see, I need to watch my temper before I break something even more valuable :o
Backs away slowly..... :-X

Can't say i've put a screen through (yet), but i've came close numerous times.
I am also very very easily distracted. I find it hard to finish something once i've started it, say i'm doing a project for school that i'm really excited about, i'll go home, start it, then go back to it the next day and find that I can't be bothered. It's the same with revision. I have to be the WORLD'S WORST REVISER... EVER!!! I'll sit down to revise, then a car door'll go outside, so I jump up and go to the window for 5 minutes, then go back to revision, then there'll be another noise outside, and I get distracted again...honestly, I just can't force myself to sit and study or do homework... which would explain why I keep getting Cs  ::)

Diet and exercise, I've tried a variety of routines such as long stretches of running/lifting weights/cycling and it seems that if I exercise 1 hour a day (5 times a week) I lose about 1/2 - 1 lb a week and even then this isn't consistent. I also eat lots of fruits and vegetables, I eat a healthy oatmeal cereal for breakfast, I bring a sandwich with (ham/mustard on wheat) to work for lunch and for dinner it varies but more often than anything its grilled chicken w/rice & beans. I cut fast food (about two years ago) and lowered by cholesterol from 252 down to 192 but other than that, my weight stays almost the same and right now I am at borderline obesity (by about 1-2 lbs). Maybe its genetics as my father used to be obese and his father was also, my mother was slim but her parents weren't. I haven't quite figured it out yet what has been impeding me lately.

An unbelievably accurate impression of me, there Alcoholica! I would probably end up swearing, then saying "oh sh*t, I swore", then going "oh sh*t, i've swore again", then "sh*t i've done it again" and this would probably continue until I said "oh f*k it" and gave up! :D

There are periods in which I can be somewhat superficial.. it's not too noticeable, I do a good job of keeping it inside, but I can be shallow in up to two-week intervals. It's weird.
I understand that... Although I try not to do shallow things, I often think shallow thoughts.

Well, lessee... I have a sick sense of humor.. I find people's misfortunes humorous... (not serious misfortunes, though)
When someone hurts me I tend to think nasty, vengeful thoughts
I tend to keep my feelings bottled up inside and then some stupid thing will set me off and I just lose it
I tend to put on an act like I'm happy all the time because I worry that people won't want to be around me if I seem depressed

I tend not to pour my heart out too much, even though I am tempted sometimes... but I am always afraid someone I know will happen upon this board, and with my first name all over the place, pictures I posted, and many telling things about me, I'm not very anonymous. So I tend to be cautious with what I post.

where to start?
I'm actually really really shy. But thats at school, because when I get home, if there's a friend round, I become really really hyper. I also bottle things up, and get annoyed - extremely annoyed - at stupid things. It's just annoying that at school, I hide away and then people start picking on me because of it. I try and stand up for myself but it just doesn't seem to work. There's a lot more that I can't put into words. Because my real life is so annoying, I escape in roleplay and forums.

Ah! I was shy like you when I was at school. What I would do if I were you is pretend that every person at school you meet is a potential friend.
It's such a shame that a person so young should be annoyed with so much.

I usually listen to it before work - when I come back from work it's usually about 11:30, so it's a tad late to be blasting out "I Predict A Riot"! ;D

Thats it! I need to get my sweaty hands on that album. Don't care how much it costs... I just need to have it!

Another problem of mine: I'm a bit too melancholy all the time.. people think I'm pissed off or depressed, when, in fact, I'm usually at my normal state when they ask. And then, apparently, I don't project my actual feelings well at all, cause no one gets it when I'm actually upset.
