My life can't get any worse than it is I'm afraid of people and my parents are bullying me so bad I can't kill myself I tried yesterday getting hit by a car I came so close the closest ever still no one gave a damn. I'm stuck in my house due to fear.

When everyone hates me it's kind of hard to talk to someone that has it all like a damn therapist

You're really into a down phase.
A few days ago (Sunday) you said you'd talk with your therapist about your
anger, loneliness, and fear of being rejected.....

Being jealous of your therapist sure gets in the way.
Have you ever told the therapist how angry you are?

It's okay to discuss your frustration and anger. This helps you label and deal with your feelings. I can get very frustrated, but it's not acting out, like the car situation. Take a minute to breathe slowly, 10 slow breaths. Acknowledge that you feel low, then let go of those feelings. Therapy is help to recognize how you feel, then you let go of it.
My best friend has a really profound fear of the simulation/backrooms theory. He has OCD (so do I, but mine is treatment responsive) and I wonder if it's a manifestation of his OCD. I'm not judging him at all, just seems like an unusual and specific fear. Anyone else really afraid of stuff like that? I'm curious to hear your thoughts because I'd like to know how to help. Didn't feel like this should be a whole thread

In any case, I don't really worry about this either way, since if I am a simulated being, there is nothing to my knowledge that I can do about it anyway?

Fortunately, “noclipping” is only possible in video games so I wouldn’t worry about ending up in the Backrooms.

@cooljethro That was my thought too. That if it’s true we can’t do anything about it anyway.
Thanks for the replies!
Hmm...Albert Einstein (possibly autistic) didn't like wearing socks.

Interesting! Apparently a lot of autistic people have an aversion to sleeping in socks, but I hate sleeping barefoot because my feet get freezing cold lol
Pekka, our friends and I just found this in a store 😂 the guys are all laughing their butts off, and I did also laugh, but I kind of hate that it exists lol

A wedding gift from a friend- these awesome posters for Pekka’s office, including a painting of his jersey (they are from Etsy)
We love all the gifts we received. They are amazing.

Very thoughtful. Nicely done. I am surprised you didn't play air hockey at your wedding. :)
Just joking. Lol

Ever make a challenge to read a book a hundred times just to see if you can do it?

That thought has not ever occurred to me.

Not particularly 100 times, no, but I do often re-read books, especially ones with a lot of photography in them.
In my hometown there was a restaurant/music venue called "The Lunch Box that Rocks", today I cannot get "The Lunch Box who wears Socks" out of my head.
In case anyone wasn't sure on the pronunciation, my last name is pronounced "Lowry-nen", not "Laurie-nen." (That's how I write it phonetically for English speakers)
Common misspelling of my husband's first name is "Pecka." Just don't call him "Pecker." Lol

I just wanted to ask you, are you sure you want to use your name and surname here? Plus photo. Because if anyone googles it, they immediately see this forum, and can come read here anything you write.

That’s a good point. I just wasn’t sure what to put as my username.
I’ll think more about a better one. Thanks for looking out for me.
One of the highlights of our wedding for my husband was me allowing him to wear a tie that was Nashville Predators colors, lol. I think his special interests should only be celebrated and encouraged, not squashed, so I wouldn't have it any other way either.
Whenever there's a full moon, I can't help but stare.

The full moon is beautiful. Where I live, there aren't many street lights and there's no light pollution, so when it's a full moon, it's very bright outside. It looks cool.
Festivities are finally over for the night, time to relax together as a married couple for the first time :) Our relationship doesn't feel any different, except I think we've fallen in love with each other even more.

There is something special in the wedding day, knowing that everyone looks at your man and thinks "damn he's such a catch, and so is his wife." ;)
Lou Laurinen
Lou Laurinen
Haha, I think everyone knows he is a catch ;)
If I can die in my sleep tonight I would be happy. But I know I will wake up to another horrible day and lonely future.

I hope you tell your therapist how you're feeling and what you've been thinking about so you can get some extra help for this.

That has not been my experience.
I can't even render a image of "God hates autistic" without it being moderated anymore.

Hey Tony, you have come really far. You have some peeps to call friends, you are doing a lot better. Sit back and realize you have moved forward. Some people maybe threatened by you but don't stop living because of idiots. You need to be your best version, and don't test us with meltdowns. Okay?
