Who gives a **** whether I live or die?



NOBODY! As some lovely, kind friends of mine were nice enough to inform me.


So why am I posting here?
 
No... and on top of that I've developed this intense desire to be friends with a certain person that was banned from WP and AFF, and now I'm afraid I might be banned from AFF just for associating with him.

Not necessarily, you have the ability to choose your own friends since these choices are your choices, I doubt you would be banned just for associating with him.

By the way in what way do you mean by that?
 
Long story... it's in one of my threads.


Thanks for caring so much, Ian.


My bf still hasn't wrote to me! I guess my apologies and genuine explanations of how and why I won't do what I did again are just not being bought any more. I feel so sad. Have I lost him for good? I've been wondering for a whole damn YEAR if it is, but no, he still "doesn't know". He said a year ago that I'd have another bf in a year's time but I don't and this is the thanks I get I guess.
 
They all told me on WP before that I was in no danger of being banned. I did not ask them; they just all took the initiative to tell me after seeing in some of my posts that I had written that I was scared of being banned. But then I was banned. Gareth and couldbecousin assured me on AFF that I should not worry about banning but after my WP exoperience I am not so sure. Same as here; though people say they do not mind and even like me I think, How long is it going to last? I know I will be banned eventually.
 
Ana, with all respect, that's just silly.
WP is known for being corrupt, but tbh I hear AFF's a lot better.
And here no one's really been banned without justification. Even people who imo deserve to be banned haven't been banned.
You definitely won't be banned.
EMZ=]
 
Thanks, Emor. Nobody on AFF or WP told me reasons why I would not be banned, so I feel that you are telling the truth, that even if things change it will stay that way with me not getting banned. :)


My poor Stan; |I feel so bad. I also owe my therapist an apology.
 
My friend said our video isn't playing on his computer :( I was looking forward to seeing it.
I really want it to work!
 
I want to make some Kraft dinner but I can't stay in the kitchen because my dad's cats' litter box is in there and smells awful. (There is no room for it in the bathroom... he'd have had to put it in the middle of the living room coffee table.)
 
Ana, my ex-gf was bipolar and from what I can tell most of the issues that you are experiencing seem to be related to that condition rather than your Aspergers. Which is maybe why people with AS on AS forums are having a hard time relating to you sometimes.

Having AS is difficult. Having BPD is a lot more difficult. I can't imagine how difficult it is to have both. I don't think that any of us can.

I know that with my ex it was really, really hard to give her support while she was suffering from mood swings. I know that people treated her badly and judged her harshly because of things that she said and did due to her mood swings, and I know how very bad this made her feel. Espcially since the mood swings were beyond her control. And also especially since the behaviour related to those mood swings was largely beyond her control.

All I can say Ana is that I sympathise with what you are going through and I know that it must be hell much of the time, if not all the time. Do you also post on bipolar forums and do you find that you get a more understanding reception at those?
 
It's funny yuou say that; I saw a psychiatrist that thought the PDD was the most important thing to treat, which was insulting, because people with PDDs don't need to be treated unless they have another disorder.


I've been on some mental health forums. Once I almost got banned from a depression forum for posting too much or something. but I had a lot to say!


I was also shunned (in a nice honest way) a little bit on a PTSD forum because I said some insensitive things apparently, though not directed as an insult or scolding, just informing. I still don't know if I have PTSD. I have never even thought of going to a strictly bipolar board. I can't believe I never thought about that!


Maybe I can have my Kraft dinner now.It's the only think I look forward to all day, and using my camera of course and talking to Stan. I should make a thread about "things we have to look forward to tomorrow".

That is just so ridiculous it is obscene.

The consequences of not treating someone with bipolar disorder can be severe. When someone with BPD bottoms out they are often beyond rational thought, and dealing with extremely negative thoughts and feelings about themselves and everything around them. I'd be inclined to think that the main consequence of not dealing with PDD would be... that the individual would fail to live up to their full potential. I don't really know, but I'd say I have a better idea than that psychiatrist.
 
I'm feeling like a sociopath. I can hardly feel and I feel detached to people. I see an article online about empathy and autism and it was about how the feel too much, they come of as uncaring because they get overloaded with feelings. Lot of aspies were saying they can relate to it. I can't. I'm a sociopath a sociopath. I can hardly feel anything from people.

The following is based on my very limited understanding of what a sociopath is. Don't take it as gospel.

If somebody does something that you don't like, what is it that stops you from killing them? Is it because you don't want to deal with the legal and social consequences of being a murderer, or because you innately feel that killing people is wrong and you would not want to carry the guilt with you for the rest of your life? If it is the former then you might actually be a sociopath, if it is the latter then you almost certainly are not.
 
I feel similar LG. I don't feel a lot of empathy and Autism movies that go on about love(other than the movie Adam) piss me off.
How sociopathic I am imo varies from being able to go out and stab someone and not really feel any guilt for it to basically not being a sociopath at all but just not being able to feel love and the extreme emotions.
The media placing such a strong emphasis on how Autistics can feel emotions has back-fired on a lot of the Autistic community imo. We're now perceived as perfectly capable of feeling emotions but it's merely expressing them where we have the problem. Personally I don't feel like that at all.
Don't get me wrong, I don't lack emotions. I've cried for inanimate objects. I just don't feel an emotional connection with many people.
EMZ=P
 
I don't feel in the heart to kill even though I wish I can kill someone with my mind. I just wish something bad would happen to them like getting hit by a train.

I don't want to go to prison but if I had the ability to kill by wishing them dead, I'd do it.
 
Me too. Once when I was 13 I asked my dad, "What would you do to me if I murdered someone?" He said (though not in these exact words), "It depends on who you murder. If it's a shithead scumbag, I'd be proud of you. But be careful if you shed innocent blood, because then I might murder you." He's for the death penalty by the way.
