I need some advice/help ***URGENT***

[Nocturnal]

ok well i could use some help as this problem of mine is causing problems with my girlfriend and i, and myself mentally.

ok basically i suffer from ocd, obsessive compulsive disorder. and i went to the alt.support.ocd newsgroups a few monts ago to search anything that i could fine regarding my type of ocd. i found one poster who kept posting a lot of msgs about his disease similar to mine. so basically i thought it would be cool to talk to him. but i didnt bother till i found his webpage again. i found it while searching for more info on ocd. i got his screen name because his name was blah@aol.com meaning anyone with the xxx@aol.com can be instant messaged most times. so basically i imed him and i was talking to him about what type of ocd he had. and i told him i suffered from the same type. he basically said "i think this is a joke, i think you're someone playing a sick joke on me, you must be from the ng's (newsgroups) playing a sick joke on me" I told him that I wasn't, that that I suffered from the same thing. I then proceeded to give him resources with a lot of info regarding ocd. i asked him if he read this one article and he said no i skimmed over it thats all i dont want to read it.

so basically from this point we were talking nicely, then i had to go, and there is no law stating that you need to say bye or anything like that i had to go badly and it was urgent so i just signed off aim, and left. i come back on, go to these message boards i gave him to post at, and out of the blue there is a message stating that ive been harrasing me and that hes going to bring up charges of slander against me. now i was trying to help him out.

i believe he has more problems then i thought. im not sure what to do. he keeps saying things like im harrasing him when i am truly not. if i was i wouldnt be posting this here to help my name.

at the message board i post at, everyone there looks down upon me now. even though ive been posting there ever since last october, and this guy just posted there once, a day ago. now everyone there looks down upon me and thinks im the bad guy even though ive been there giving advice and help to whoever needed it.

i dont know what to do now. i wish he would just stop it. there are more then one person that hes doing this too. he thinks just because he got an IM on the same day as i IMd him he thinks its me. His name is xxx@aol.com and he posts at a newsgroup and it shows his e-mail address. so duh, anyone can just instant message him if hes on aol.

i dont know what to do. this is causing me problems.

like i really obsess so like when im not at a computer, i really need to get to one ASAP to see what kinda things hes sad about me. i feel really sad that i tried to help someone and in return i get this.

i even talked to his friend online but who is his friend in real life. she said to just ignore him and that that is the way he is. she said shes tried helping him herself but in return he gets angry like that.

what do i do?

hes made me out to be some kinda freak monster at those other message boards. im so sad man i didnt deserve this. i just tried to talk to him to be a friend and give him support, but in return i get this. i love how the way the world works sometimes, dont you?

 

[Nocturnal]

hey guys i could really use your guys advice.

i need help as im very desperate.

should i call the police on this guy?

its causing me a lot of stress and grif right now.

more then you can imagine.

please help me out guys.

 

[Nocturnal]

i e-mailed the guy and said that i was sorry and that i dont want anything to do with him.

in return, he e-mailed me and said that i need to post a msg on the board saying im sorry, and that ive been posting as other ppl saying fake msgs about him.

but how can i do this, when those other ppl who are posting aren't me?

i am not going to confess to something i didnt do.

now this is causing me a lot of grief, and im wondering what dept. at the police station or fbi to get in touch with.

i really need some help and i need to get this resolved, any and all of your help is appreciated.

 

[bunker]

Have you tried posting this message in the newsgroup?

 

[Nocturnal]

no this didnt happen in the ng's though. it happend at another msg board.

 

[Hammer]

I would try to work out the issues you have first. It shouldn't matter to you what people say on some anonymous board, and you certainly should not obsess over it. Deal with that first. In the meantime, stay of the board until people lose interest.

i know that, but hes threatening me telling me that i need to post a apology and that i need to say who i have been posting under.

i post under one name, and one name only.

the other two ppl who he thinks i am, are real. i talked to that other person last night on aol and she said herself that he did the same thing to her. that she signed off and he went crazy saying she harrassed him.

ill try my best to ignore it.

thanks.

 

[Nocturnal]

i would like to add that i tried to stay away from the boards except that he kept posting message after message about how im harrassing him, and i wasnt. so i had to clear my name.

if i was some sick prankster i wouldnt even have done this. hes such a loser.

 

[bunker]

Just post on that board what you've told us. If they don't believe you, so be it. It's the internet, not life.

 

[Hammer]

You didn't do anything wrong, you we're trying to help him. You don't owe him anything. If he's upset about, then tough, that's his problem. Like the guys friend said, he gets angry when people him him and to just ignore him. That's good advice, there's probably little you could do to change someone like that.



<< i know that, but hes threatening me telling me that i need to post a apology and that i need to say who i have been posting under. >>

 

[Kev]

you can prove that it wasn't you posting the other messages because it should track the message poster's ip info in the message header. don't ask me how to read this, i don't know how. once you do this you can prove to the people on the MB that all those other posters weren't you.

but i don't know why you're getting so upset over this, it's just a message board.

 

[Nocturnal]

i told him i was sorry on the board, even though i didnt do anything, and he stopped.

but still, i just talked to his friend and she said that hes very paranoid, and that he says outrageous things about her to his mother. things that she has never even thought of.

i believe he needs serious medical help.

he said his own therapist said that i was just "f'ing" with his head.

now for a therapist to tell you this kinda things, i think you have a very messed up therapist.

i still feel like turning him over to the fbi or police. i dont feel that it is right that he can do this kinda things and get away with it.

its like hes telling me to confess to a murder that i didnt do.

thats outrageous.

i know i have problems i have to work on myself. but jesus christ, this guy takes the cake.

 

[Cyco]

Looks like another case of "never let a good deed go unpinished". Yeah, just do your best to ignore it. It does sound like there's more to his story, and there's really nothing you can do to change the way he thinks. Some people are just like that. Regroup and go on. Good luck handling your ocd, other than this little incident, it sounds like you're doing what you can to deal with it and improve.

[Nocturnal]

I let things like this bother me, I wish I could just let it go.

It's something I really need to work on.

Damn, it's very irritating.

This sucks!

 

[telstar1]

Dude, it's the internet. Just stop using the message board he's on for a while.

 

[Nocturnal]

<< Dude, it's the internet. Just stop using the message board he's on for a while. >>



Dude, very true, thanks man.

I appreciate it.

I take things too seriously sometimes

No more to explain

 

[Nocturnal]

<< No more to explain >>


ROTFLMAO!!!

 

[eakers]

post your thoughts then take a sabbatitcle from it.

beleive me, a sabbatiticle from a message board works wonders for these stupid situations that really shouldnt bother you but do.

*kat. <-- coming off a sabbatiticle elsewhere.

 

[Jzero]

<< *kat. <-- coming off a sabbatiticle elsewhere. >>

<-- coming off a sabbatical from spelling class

 

[bbarnes]

Just post the message you did here, or not, and stay away from those boards for a while and let things cool down.

<<Posted by IC2 on March 1, 2002:

My troubled friends:
There is much of satan in some of us.

I have a vision I would like to share with you:

A young man, in his mid-twenties, who I will call IT, is trying to arrange a
meetng with a young boy, perhaps 10 to 14.
The boy may have learning disabilties, physical problems, or a mental affliction similar to ITs.
The meeting occurs, IT charms the boy by telling him whatever he needs to hear.
Assurances of friendship, love, care, help, anything.
But then the tone turns sexual. IT begins to fondle the youngster, touching him
in ways he doesn't want to be touched.
Some force is used, and IT gets the dirty satisfaction he came for.
IT now feels guilt for needing this kind of activity, and is mad first at
himself, and then redirects his rage toward the boy.
There is some preliminay punching, mostly to relieve a few anxieties.
Then a weapon is used, a knife or a club of some sort, such as a
baseball bat or fireplace poker. IT does NOT use a gun, nor does he choke
or attempt to suffocate the boy.
IT now needs to dispose of the body. Perhaps like Jeffrey Daumer
he uses the knife to cut off the arms at the shoulder joint, then cut
off the head. Theres more, but I dont like it.

This is only the beginning. IT must do the same to someone a little older,
perhaps another homosexual. It happens many times, each to a slightly
older man. It gets easier. Finally he is ready to do what he really needs.

His most important victim is a man about 30 years older than IT.
This man represents his father, who led ITs family in rejecting IT and
his dirty lifestyle from their house and from their hearts.
That is why IT never talks of his biological family.
That is why IT needs to kill his father, if only in his own mind.
The father represents the root of his homosexual compulsions.
But I have no idea what happens after this.

I'm tired and I need to rest.
I share this vision so that someone out there may avoid IT and his dirty games.

Love, IC2.

P.S. I see Seattle>>

^^ This is the kinda sick crap they post there. The above person believes to be psychic, and believes to have saw a vision that someone is going to do this. I'm not sure if she is talking about me, but if she is, isn't this slander? Can I do anything about this?

I in no way would ever try to touch a kid, or lure a kid. That is not even what my OCD consists of.

This is a sad sad world.

 

[eakers]

they are CRAZY. just leave, they dont deserve your time!

FIND SOME PLACE BETTER.

make sure you hide your email address and/or ask the admin to delete your account and NEVER LOOK BACK.


*kat. <-- feels so bad for you.

 

[Hammer]

Those people have SERIOUS problems. I would stay away, and never go back there again.

Oh and not everything is about you. Don't be so paranoid.

 

[Azraele]

Sometimes, people are mean. What's worse is that when this happens, sometimes people will jump on the bandwagon without knowing the full story and in turn get mean themselves. All you can do is tell them your side of things. Ultimately, it will be up to them to decide what they want to think. You're going to have to respect that, no matter how wrong it may seem. You have a couple of choices. Shrug it off and show them who you really are. Be helpful, funny, creative, be yourself. Or you could lay low for a while, even create a new username. The choice is yours. The most important thing to realize is that it's not your fault, and that you did the best you could with the best of intentions.
