Why do people have something happen to them that's just one instance and then...

[JJChicken]

So, why do people have one thing happen to them and then they're like... mentally fucked for the rest of their life/6+months? (Death of loved one, getting raped, they murder someone, one traumatic experience, etc.)

I can understand if it's something bad for like... years. But if it's just like one or maybe two experiences, WTF?

It's like they break then can't ever repair themselves.

Stop trolling.

Trident's response would be "Darn, now who's going to buy me a hotdog?"

Probably. I'd be more downed by the whole thing if I didn't have someone who was able to take care of me as a child rather than the loss of someone such as a father.

 

[TridenT]

Stop trolling.

Your first response was better. Mr. NinjaEdit

i don't feel love or familial affection towards anyone either.

Same here, I sympathize with my family in the sense that we are "friends" and share our lives etc, but I never understood what is this "love" that people talk about when it comes to family

I just dont feel anything towards them, at all... I have no idea how Im gonna react when my parents die, I wonder if it will change (that would be incredible irony, finally starting to care when they are already gone)

I think the only thing that really makes me care about other people is romantic love... Thinking of ex-gfs, those were the ONLY times in my life where I wanted to be with someone for no reason at all, because just being with them made me happy

I supposed thats how friends and family should be like too, but I dont feel the same way at all

And the former of the latter.

But I do not have a disorder. :\ I'm quite marvelous.

Just like Neckbeard, you guys think there is nothing wrong with you.

No, there's really not. Either you weren't close to them or you have trouble creating emotional connections with other people. There's no other options.

He could be a sociopath as an extension but he's too retarded for this.

No health insurance, government assistance?

emergency health insurance (paid for by parents), no govt assistance.

atm i'm taking nightschool classes to fulfill requirements for a grad school program, leaving my day open to any potential jobs i might find, but i can't seem to find a damn thing.

Put yourself in this scenario.

Your parents/best friend/loved one is horrifically killed via murder/accident were you are also present. You are the only survivor/witness. That feeling of sorrow/guilt of why you didn't have the same fate as them. Not sure how that mental scar can heal. Sure time will pass, but you'll end up thinking the what if and why me. How can you deal with that? Some people will end up nuts and all it took was that one event that tragically changes their life.

Not excusing TridenT or anything, but it is hard for someone who hasn't been in this situation to really understand. I used to think I understood how it felt when a loved one died, or someone broke up with you that you really loved, or whatever. But it doesn't even come close to what I actually felt when someone I knew died (and as far as it went, I wasn't even that close to them). My first girlfriend breaking up with me really tore me up. I doubt I could even begin to imagine the loss of confidence and withdrawal that would accompany being raped.

Some sort of cobra? Does the insurance cover mental health? I would imagine it does. It might be very helpful to spend some of those days seeing someone.

i actually feel somewhat defective as a human because i don't feel empathy towards people who went through traumatic circumstances.

i don't feel love or familial affection towards anyone either.

the only emotions i seem to have are anger (which dissipates quickly), embarrassment, and regret.

you are a sociopath

as long as you arent killing people theres nothing wrong with it

 

[guyver01]

Aww... Poor Trident.... His mental disabilities has caused him to form no personal attachments... and noone cares about him enough to try.

Maybe Toucan Sam will care one day.

You reap what you sow

 

[dud]

If you have a traumatic event it can effect the way you view similar events in your life, you equate it to a lot of other things, it causes you to question everything, those things are what fuck you up.

So what's your excuse? Inquiring minds want to know why you are the way you are.

 

[guyver01]

So what's your excuse?

He's British..
He's got Mental Disabilites.


do we need to know more?

😕

I'd like to know what the "minimum" requirements are for membership in these forums. Why? If you allow NeckT#%$ in as a member your standards must be rock-bottom.

Not necessarily; those with ASPD don't often regret. Lack of empathy is just one trait of APSD, there is quite a bit more to it.

someone should rape you brutally for a couple hours

and then you can tell us you're okay in less than six months

I mean.. you would totally be okay, right?

I would think the fact that he feels there's something wrong with it excludes him as a psychopath.
