This is every person in middle management ever. Just keep buying new lovely low end sports cars and pairs of oakleys every 6 months to a year and you'll stave off the creeping dread until you have a son/daughter you can put all your time and money into trying to form into a better version of yourself.

You will make 10x the money by just dressing up as a girl rather than actually getting a sex change because literally every viewer will want to see your dick. Also it's pretty hard to run a gofundme raising money for your sex change if you've already had it! loquacius posted:I apologize in advance for the rambling, goons. When I was young, I was used by a cousin (he was 10 years older than I). I didn't know I was being raped, I just thought I was helping him feel better. This broke me, obviously, and I haven't talked about it with a professional despite seeing one or another for over half my life. There is a very high likelihood that the majority of your issues with dealing with emotions, struggling to trust people, pushing them away etc are there because you have pushed this issue into your subconscious and decided not to deal with it. It sucks bigtime but the only way you'll ever move past it is to speak with a professional about it and start to work through those difficult emotions in a controlled environment. Please give it a try. If you like, try seeing a different therapist so if you don't like how it's going you can just stop seeing them and still maintain your relationship with your current one. You have a right to be hurt and angry about what happened to you, but you also have the right to let yourself work through it and get past it. You have to let yourself start that journey.

Yo, sadbrain kissin' cousin goon, I feel you. Know that honesty and openness with a mental health professional AND/OR SUPPORT GROUP has the power to blow your world wide open, and to solve problems you long ago resigned yourself to being just facts of life. If all you can muster is to go to a support group and not participate, just sit in and listen, start with that. Alternatively, just show your therapist the post you wrote if it's too painful to say the words. Or if it's too hard to admit you've lied to your therapist this long, get a new one and start from scratch. But you've got to make a move towards sharing openly and honestly with someone qualified.

My favorite thing about these threads are the "I have a normal job and a normal life, and lots of friends and I love my wife, I love my kids, and I am content...... but I just feel like I am faking everything and just going with the flow!" Motherfucker, we are all just going with the flow, you sad brains gently caress. It's like people need to invent this mega-tragedy in their life in order to feel like a person that matters. VVVVVV Goddamn Exhibit A. "I don't care about my wife's things, I must have the 'bergers!" No, dummy, you are just married. You think your wife gives a poo poo about your Hearthstone deck? She's just being polite. ElGroucho fucked around with this message at 00:45 on Oct 6, 2016 |

quote:Pick had quoted a bunch of sob stories of women married to Aspies. I might be one of those Aspie husbands. A lot of the complaints the writers had about their husbands definitely lined up with complaints my own wife had about me (not intimate enough, have to spell everything out, unsupportive, etc). While I've never officially been diagnosed as being on the Autism spectrum, there was definitely an uncanny similarity in behavior.

The Pickpost in question was in the r/relationships thread btw and most Asperger's self-diagnoses are wrong, but you did make an XKCD reference in the middle of your confession for no particular reason so maybe you're on to something

IIRC that's the whole reason that Asperger's is no longer "a thing", right?

i dunno, self-diagnosed burger rear end sounds like he's got a pretty mellow contented attitude toward life, but his wife also sounds pretty normal too, just more forward thinking and ambitious. they could make a good yin and yang team if they both made a solid effort to meet the other halfway. or they could just be horribly mismatched, should have never married, and should divorce asap. hard to tell.

Two from the girl who was abused:quote:This might be the last anony reply I'll do. I don't want to just go back and forth on how worthless I am. Basically, I've given up on having friends hips and other relationships. Even if I could open up enough to someone (which would involve a whole new 'new therapist' dance since I moved recently) I don't know what good it would do me. quote:Quote from loq:You have a right to be hurt and angry about what happened to you, but you also have the right to let yourself work through it and get past it.

Honestly I'm seeing a lot of thought patterns in your posts that therapy is supposed to be able to help with. I'd absolutely recommend keeping up with it, and if you don't think your past experiences have been effective, maybe find a new therapist. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) works wonders with the kind of self-sabotaging thoughts you seem to be exhibiting; see if you can find someone who specializes in it.

I'm starting to see why the people she loves leave her. I'm already sick of hearing about how worthless and undeserving of love she is and it's only been like 4 posts on a message board. Go to therapy. Be honest. Get help.

Sad incest goon, I know it's hard. But if you keep looking for support and treatment options that work for you, you will find them. Even if it takes a while and some false starts. You'll find something that works for you, and things will start to get better. Start here: http://online.rainn.org/ It's an anonymous chat hotline for survivors of sexual abuse. You can also call 800-656-HOPE These might be helpful reads too: https://www.rainn.org/articles/adult-survivors-childhood-sexual-abuse https://www.rainn.org/articles/incest

I have a friend pretty much exactly like you minus the opiates. It's not that people can't be close to you because you were abused, it's because you constantly talk about how lovely you are and how you deserve it (which btw is why nothing works, as long as you think you deserve to feel like that then ofc you'll continue feeling like that) and they're not an unending font of support and at some point they probably feel like they are enabling you.Solice Kirsk posted:I'm starting to see why the people she loves leave her.

Yeah not to be brutal or mean but it is pretty much this. Everyone wants to help you but they probably feel like they're leading the horse to water and wrestling with it to make it get a drink and giving up eventually while the horse is complaining how thirsty it is the whole time. You don't deserve to feel like crap. Nothing that happened to you when you were a little kid was your fault. You deserve just as much as anyone else deserves and you're the only real obstacle at this point.

Having dealt with people exactly like that for years and years and years and years and years it's either gonna end up with a drug overdose or her getting better and blaming the people that were around her at the time for not helping her enough even though she actively avoided their advice and was an emotional drain on everyone. I know that comes off as "edgy" and assholish, but it is what it is. I hope she gets better and she deserves to be happy, everyone does, but she sounds exactly like my other friends and it was always something in their childhood that hosed them up, but they wouldn't confront it except while intoxicated and it killed all but one of them. Stop feeling sorry for yourself and put some honest effort into trying to fix yourself. And when you very obviously half rear end it again or (more likely) ignore all the advice we're giving you here you can go back to blaming your abuse for everything wrong with your manipulative emotionally vampyric personality. It's a win/win for you.
