It takes 2-3 years of an intense desire to get better from Borderline Personality Disorder, which you likely have, and has inverted the parent-child relationship with your father.

Date: April 25th, 2012 4:51 PM Author: adulterous place of business that's the exact same thing as me. I was diagnosed with dysthymia, with occasional episodes of severe depression (when i think about suicide, etc. but never carry it out) and am anxious a lot. Never been diagnosed with GAD though, but just severe anxiety at times... law school doesn't exactly help lol.
I think it's dangerous to try to diagnose someone over the 'net, however. BPD is a serious disorder, and just reading your comments in that other thread - nothing in that struck me as someone with that disorder. |
|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:03 PM Author: dead stimulating locus generalized bond dysthymia is almost worse than occasioal bouts of major depression, IMO - especially in regards to relationships, as men will just view you as cynical, apathetic, dispassionate...a "downer".

Date: April 25th, 2012 5:07 PM Author: dead stimulating locus generalized bond and the GAD doesn't help, either: I'm a severe hypochondriac and constantly running to emrgency rooms, etc. in short, even when men love me, they understandably refuse to marry me. |
|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:11 PM Author: adulterous place of business :( you just sound complex... I don't know. Whenever I hear people say they have no hope of marrying because of x disorder, i think of famous writers from the 1930s-40s who were able to marry, despite being perceived as 'crazy' themselves (Sylvia Plath/Virginia Woolf, etc.) maybe you just need to marry a more artistic dude, rather than a lawyer type.

Date: April 25th, 2012 5:20 PM Author: dead stimulating locus generalized bond let's see: in 2011, i visited the er maybe 5-6 times, urgent care clinics maybe 15-20 times, and had at least 2-3 regular doctor's visits a month.
i also had 2 cat scans of my chest/lungs, a sinus MRI, a head CT, a colonoscopy, an upper endoscopy, 3-4 EKGs, several blood tests,a spleen/liver ultrasound, an echocardiogram, a stress test, a holter monitor, skin prick allergy testing, an assorted psychologist/psychiatrist vists. |

|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:30 PM Author: adulterous place of business true. I think Julia mentioned before that she pulls her hair too, compulsively.. I do that occasionally as well (trichotillomania), OCD disorder. Julia, do you still do that? It's compulsive. If you can stop doing that, which is a pretty serious OCD, i don't know why you can't stop this... (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1932903&forum_id=2#20546147) |

Date: April 25th, 2012 5:33 PM Author: dead stimulating locus generalized bond it's not baseless --i'll give you examples:
in 2009, it burned when i urinated, and i went to an urgent care to get antibiotics for an uti. my bf at the time rolled his eyes and told me there was nothing worng and that i was wasting my time. when, a day later, i was urinating frank blood, i went to the er, where they discovered i was infected with mycoplasma, not bacteria. they ran a ct-scan of my kidneys to see if there was any other cause for the frank bleeding -- my kidneys looked fine, but the CT revealed nodules on my lungs, instead.
i then had to undergo lung CTs every 6 months for 2 years to ascertain that they were benign nodules/not growing.
as another example, i frequently complain of palpitations, and went to see a cardiologist for a holter monitor. apparently, i was having ventricular tachycardia (a dangerous arrhythmia) IN MY SLEEP. My bf at the time was telling me it was all in my head and not real.
A month ago, i woke up with a cough; when i developed a fever that night, i went to the er. The guy I'm seeing rolled his eyes and laughed at me for seeking er treatment for a "simple cold". A chest x-ray revealed PNEUMONIA --just like that --I had been 100% fine the day before. I was given ciprofloxacin, to which I had an allergic reaction, and had to be given steroids + IV medications. |

Date: April 25th, 2012 5:39 PM Author: charismatic institution main people Do you smoke pot or anything to calm yourself down? I feel like a lot of people who suffer from anxiety at this level go beyond traditional meds to put the shit to rest.
How do you work/socialize/maintain friendships? It seems that your involvement in self-related issues takes up the time of two full-time jobs.

|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:40 PM Author: charismatic institution main people Perhaps the Q could have been placed elsewhere in this thread. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1932903&forum_id=2#20546247) |
|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:44 PM Author: dead stimulating locus generalized bond i take xanax for panic attacks, but otherwise avoid meds, cause i seem to have adverse reaction to everything.
i also can't drink, due to awful acid reflux/erosive esophagitis.
i have a very frail physical constitution, which has exacerbated my similarly frail psychological constitution. |
|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:42 PM Author: dead stimulating locus generalized bond i don't socialize much -which is fine, because i'm severely introverted. and life is difficult for me, overall, yes. |
|
Date: April 25th, 2012 7:59 PM Author: adulterous place of business why do you think you're "severely introverted"? Wouldn't really picture you like that. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1932903&forum_id=2#20547404) |
|
Date: April 25th, 2012 8:01 PM Author: dead stimulating locus generalized bond i hate small talk, don't like most people/find most stupid & uninteresting, and find conversation generally full of banalities and silly social rituals.
interacting with others is often about watching people present themselves as they want to be seen, not as they actually are; this is tiresome to behold. |

|
Date: April 25th, 2012 8:04 PM Author: buff chad parlor why are fake appearances more tiresome than how ppl really are; seems like the latter could be just as tiresome and at least there's something more going on with being fake, you can think about who they really are, why they pretend, how well they do it, etc (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1932903&forum_id=2#20547450) |
|
Date: April 25th, 2012 8:05 PM Author: adulterous place of business It's tiresome because you don't feel like you're interacting with a real person, just a persona of who they really are. And so many people are like this. I feel an urge to act fake as well, and prob appear more quieter and reserved as a result of this... can't really relate to people well, unless I feel they're being real with me.

|
Date: April 25th, 2012 8:07 PM Author: adulterous place of business I guess because I don't really feel a real connection with most people/don't relate to them. Related to how people feel small talk is tiresome. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1932903&forum_id=2#20547497) |

Date: April 25th, 2012 8:08 PM Author: adulterous place of business yeah for some reason I actually do better in crowds/with large groups of people. Don't know why. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1932903&forum_id=2#20547502) |
|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:39 PM Author: buff chad parlor lol, okay. well, if you sometimes legitimately get sick, then if I or any other normal guy were dating you, I or they would put up with your er visits. I myself always pretend to be really stoic/claim to never get sick, but freak out when I do. I mean, I don't actually care if I do get cancer or something really bad, but I always assume that something really bad is what it is.

Date: April 25th, 2012 5:41 PM Author: dead stimulating locus generalized bond it's a vicious cycle, though: i am weak/sickly, so i'm terrified of illness, because i know i'm always about to get sick again. this turns me into a hypochondriac, however, and turns men off.

|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:44 PM Author: buff chad parlor honestly I don't see why they mind/give a fuck. they should go to the er with you, tease you about it, watch tv, the whole thing becomes a cute couple ritual. it's especially okay because sometimes you're actually sick (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1932903&forum_id=2#20546285) |
|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:45 PM Author: dead stimulating locus generalized bond lol, that's not how it works in real life. IRL, people grow sick of it, start pitying me and seeing me as some sort of cripple, and eventually fall out of love. |
|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:47 PM Author: buff chad parlor well, I can only speak for myself, but I'd find that totally non-annoying/endearing. tbh you'd be somewhat less attractive sans vulnerabilities of one sort or another (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1932903&forum_id=2#20546322) |

|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:27 PM Author: dead stimulating locus generalized bond it is right in some important senses, namely that all kinds of people find love & mate. being plain or even below-avg in appearance stops very few from finding a mate; people fall in love with a person, not a physique, and anyhow tastes are subjective.

|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:31 PM Author: adulterous place of business yeah. I read that and still think it escapes the issue of whether you're too 'different', but then maybe I'm being cyclical in my thinking with that. Because the article posits that you can never be too 'different' for anyone. Nice thought, the reality of it, i'm unsure. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1932903&forum_id=2#20546154) |
|
Date: April 25th, 2012 5:36 PM Author: dead stimulating locus generalized bond it is 100% possible to be too different -- and at the risk of being attacked here -- it's also true that the more intelligent a woman, the less likely she is to find a mate.
i agree with the article's premise in regards to physical appearance, however. |

Date: April 25th, 2012 8:04 PM Author: adulterous place of business but not at any other time? Maybe you don't have trich then. Trich is characterized as an impulsive activity, that usually hits people at any time, can't really control that well.. if it only hits you when you're stressed, maybe it's just related to stress, not an OCD.
