I refuse to ever go to a therapist but I am confident I have avoidant personality disorder, mild OCD, and depression. It has made me a 23 year old virgin and incapable of making friends or even casual acquaintances in work or college (graduated a loner). This all fuels my anger and bad bad bad thoughts
Jack Smith
schizoid+depression
no emotions, good or bad, can't feel joy from anything, apathy, zero motivation, depersonalization
head works just fine though, but with dopamine not reproducing any chance for forming productive and healthy habits and fixing my shit is literally non-existent
Justin Lee
I have crippling social anxiety that basically scares me into not leaving my home more than half the time, including going to work.
Which also means I really can't even walk up to someone or let alone a cashier at the place i'm getting food at without being drunk. I'm pretty sure I have Stockholm syndrome because of my relationship and i've been through so many things in the past 3 years i've learned to trick myself into thinking everything is okay. Even if things are blatantly not, I struggle to think anything is wrong.
Crippling depression lmao
I've literally spent the last 4 days now laying in bed and taking showers. Struggle to find any interest in anything and cry all day basically.
I'm a sad bitch

I may be able to graduate college after 8 years. Almost dropped out of high school. Anxiety, depression, and anorexia are a certainty. Probably OCD as well, but self-diagnosis is dubious I guess. There were months I was tracking everything I touched and barely eating because of contamination. Months I was convinced my family was trying to poison me. It goes on. OCD seems to fit most of it the best I guess.

social anxiety disorder as a teenager and a number of depressive episodes as an adult. I've done fine in school but it has affected my ability to have good relationships. Also it hurts to think that I would have gotten so much further in life if not for this. Mostly the depressions are shitty in and of themselves, regardless of whether I can continue to function or not.
James Davis
No motivation for anything useful, incapable of being in a room with more than 10 guys I don't know or even calling a waiter a bit loud because of the social anxiety, and of course don't fap in 2 months if I only watch 3d porn but when I watch something gore I fall furiously until Im dry
I want to die

I'm paranoid, lethargic, irritable, refuse to go out with people, my mind fills up with pessimistic thoughts whenever I'm not occupied with something
I need a psychiatrist now more than ever but I refuse to go because I'm afraid it won't be what I expected
Ayden Cooper
Had a drug induced psychosis and tried to stab my dad because i thought he was a demonic alien, so yeah pretty big impact.
Also got sectioned for a month.
The food in the looney bin is some of the best ive ever had.
I have a psychologist that i check in with weekly to make sure im passing as nuerotypical
Justin Wilson
Mostly women executions
But rpgs where you can basically kill whoever you want and feel like God turn me on too, but 3d porn is not feeling good to fap anymore
I know, I deserve to die

Anxiety, depression, "untreatable" insomnia.
I refuse treatment for the depression, and have prescribed Xanax for insomnia (not anxiety), because it is that bad.
It hasn't really affected my life in a way that I can personally say because these have all been problems as far back as I can remember. I don't sleep until I literally pass out from exhaustion or if I take Xanax (but I often don't as I'm paranoid about addiction).
All I can tell you fellow robots is that although you may have it hard, just try to do what makes you happy (not the cringy stereotypical "oh do this [thing] to be happy bs...), but like actually do what you love to do. If that means shitposting on r9k for the rest of your days, fucking do it. Don't let other faggots tell you otherwise!

I can't function properly, I've turned down multiple girls during my teen years due to my issues and now i'm a near 23 year old thats almost bald. I cant finish my college, I cant work full time, I cant make friends easily and the one stat stay are either abusive or have issues like me. I feel stuck inside my room. Everything I do, can/will result in failure
Depression, avoidant personality disorder(diagnosed), health issues that affect energy, cognitive functions, hard time bonding due to emotional neglect during childhood.
You are not your fetish user. As long as you disapprove of it and try to contain some toxic elements of your fetish from interfering with your actual life then you are not beyond redemption

Can anyone help me induce mental fog? I once had it in a high stress situation. Lasted 8 days. I want it again for victimhood complex.
Ayden Powell
I was a manic depressive for about two years while at college, I failed my first year which meant I had to stay an extra two years there. I had be middling with depression while at secondary school.
I managed to get my depression under control at the age of 18. I managed to get into university and I've been feeling the best I've ever felt in years. I'm just worried that when I finally leave i'll return to a boring life of mediocrity and slip back into depression again.

Feels bad man. I don't know how to function with normal society ever since I got PTSD.

I think I'm more or less fine.
Some issues with my dead mother but I don't have a problem in my day to day life
Landon Wright
I don't really get how so many people get PTSD. Maybe it's my first world view? Could you tell me how you got it?
Samuel Bell
Just start doing clubs and other side jobs until you collabs from the pressure.

These fist one are not strictly mental health but affect it:
I lack enzymes Cyp2d6 and cyp3a4. Cyp2d6 is linked to serotonin regeneration as well as converting some other body's naturally occuring chemicals in to dopamine. They also convert manymany drugs to working ones in the body, which is bad since I do drugs (not truly addicted anymore though). Then I got the usual, depression, anxiety (which I worked through). Also I can produce mental images.
James Richardson
severely. i was a neet shut-in for over nine years. tried killing myself a few times
bipolar 1, BPD, PTSD (from being on an ambulance team), alcohol/substance abuse, anxiety disorder, major depressive disorder
Jack Gray
(Person you quoted)
I bought some club drugs that turned out to be amphetamines instead of what I wanted, overdosed. Trauma can be inflicted in various ways. It depends from person to person. What a soldier experiences is not the typical PTSD. Most rape victims experience a form of it.

>chronically depressed and anxious for seven years

>found out I'm also a faggot
At the point where I mutter "FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU KILL MYSELF KILL MYSELF KILL MYSELF" under my breath very regularly.
I've spent the entire morning thinking about how appealing it is to buy a rope and hang myself.. I hate myself my position my inability to be happy no matter what.
I can't fucking deal with this anymore.
Asher Jones
schizoid is not an actual disability. It's a type of character formed by bad upbringing.
it pisses me off every time some lazy cunt says "muh schizoid" as if it were an actual disease.
Daniel Rivera
It's an actual PD thought, we here aren't competing for the most misery last i checked
absence of emotions, anhedonia, unhealthy daydreaming, social isolation, asexualism, etc - is all symptoms of SPD, while it's not as bad as a full-blown schitzo or the like it's still hinders your life considerably, so type of character is not a valid classification, since PD is outside of norm.
Jack Collins
Anti social personality disorder here. Family and girlfriend finally found out about pervasive weed and alcohol addiction, so I am being forced to get help. Im pretty sure it will all unravel from here. All I want to do is to continue down the spiral of degeneracy. I have no more fucks to give. The average normal persons issues are beyond me. School, work, everything just sort of fall in place, I can deal with the absurdity of normalcy and repetition quite well, have excellent stress coping ability, so fucking let me burn already. My fantasizies centers primarily around abducting teenagers and fucking them unconscious in a converted van home which I then use to escape towards a life of nomadic drifting across Europe.
Samuel Russell
Not to be WebMD or an armchair therapist but have you considered schizophrenia? If you're convinced they were trying to poison you, that seems likelier than OCD.
depression and PTSD. Strange combo for a 20-year-old and everyone always armchair diagnoses me with anxiety which is stupid because Anxiety is the one thing I know I don't have (I have no panic attacks, no problem going outside, no irrational doubts, like wtf guys). I'm working on recovering from an eating disorder. I used to quietly hunger strike as sheer protest growing up (didn't wanna live=stopped eating) but it's hard not to now. I just take this hateful pleasure in starving whenever I hate life. It's not anorexia though cuz it has nothing to do with losing weight.
Dealing with these defines me more than almost any other single factor in my life, but not in a 100% bad way. It's made me a kinder/wiser person I think. I'm more conscious of how I treat myself because I have to be to stave off/temper mood swings. It's also the reason I got dogs. Timing wise I got both as a teen so I can't imagine myself without them because I had no personality before (as no kid does).
Anthony Allen
>Anti social personality disorder
Hey friend.
it sucks not having empathy for people as much as it can be good.
Do you find it hard to pretty much impossible to ever make friends?
as you cannot connect?
PTSD sucks man
Gabriel Gutierrez
I find it easy to make friends and I would probably strike you as someone really kind, friendly and charming, but its hard for me to maintain them simply due to my lack of interest in people. Unless you have something I want from you.
I always feel like everyone else gets these sort of connections with other people, and that people can sense that I am not transmitting a signal, like most other people do. I simply dont understand what it means to connect with someone and I quite loathe the concept of it.

Eli Reyes
I am officially at the deep end and I won't ever get better.
It's cathartic. I'm doing better now in life, but without purpose. It's scary knowing that I will die alone and I have to continue doing so for another possible 40 years.
Easton Bennett
I thought I was depressed but I've bawled by eyes out till I can't anymore even if I tried. Not sure what to make of this. Complete apathy perhaps?
All I know is that what I'm feeling doesn't align with what I know to be true, which is that everything is not fine.
Gabriel Baker
Oh, I also can easily make "friends" with people but I dont care about them at all and they are merely entertainment/distractions or like you said perhaps wanting something from them.
I have a friend though which I am grateful for.
>I always feel like everyone else gets these sort of connections with other people
Yeah 100%
Weird isnt it as if we are lacking something fundamental as part of being human.

this is why I want to do a suicide pact with someone.
TFW only person you could do one with is way too underage.
Grayson Rodriguez
im schizoid and depressed at the same time
its a blend of grey, i have no feelings nor do i have emotions, im extremely cynical and non-motivated, my daily routine is like a snail that just stays in his little house that rarely and slowly goes out for food
Kevin Hernandez
Yeah. Every time I miss my depression meds I get nightmares and go into guaranteed hyper stress mode the next day. I'm lucky though in that since I was never actually about to die (I got mine from being imprisoned in an unlivable space for too long) mine is much milder than what the vets get. I don't hallucinate but my memory is much more malleable than before. I can forget things in a semi-controlled manner by labeling them off-limits (until I forget why I did so, curiously go digging and then highly regret) and I can make my mind glaze over much more easily. Once I got legit full-blown disassociative amnesia though (as a symptom of PTSD). That was a weird experience.
Nolan Russell
Lol don't bother with underage people. Most turn out normal and leave you behind. Remember we are anomalies.
