    • About Me

      I'm (apparently) a man of steel, my brain is (apparently) a computer and my heart is (apparently) a block of unmeltable ice. I'm like Frankenstein's Creature looking for acceptance among humans. I'm like the wooden puppet Pinocchio dreaming of becoming a real boy, I'm like a Vulcan following the path of pure logic and reason without embracing emotions. I live in my Fortress of Solitude, in a fortress looking towards a desert and waiting for an enemy that is never going to attack. So why living here? So why not looking for compassion and love?

    • Open Insomnia

      I began to have sleep problems at 13 along with anxiety. At 17 I had a really bad insomnia problem. Now it is just a seasonal disorder.

    • Open Loneliness

      I've spent most of my life in solitude. I've never had a date and I have contradictory feelings about intimate relationships. Sometimes I desire love and intimacy, while sometimes I don't like being touched or observed and I hate those who show interest in me. I have very few friends and all of them know little or nothing about my psychological situation.

      I do not fit well in any particular category, however according to my last diagnosis I have a Personality Disorder with avoidant, paranoid, obsessive and social phobic features.

    • Open Self-Injury

      I've been properly a self-injurer when I was 17. I've always been kinda masochist until approximately the age of 23 when I understood the concept of self-love. My self-injury problem involved punching, hitting, scratching, self-biting, burning, starving, freezing and sleep deprivation.

      Treatments

      Agoraphobia, social phobia, enochlophobia ( fear of large crowds), gelotophobia (fear of being laughed at), haptephobia (fear of being touched), fear of driving.

    • Open Migraine Headaches

      Headaches make me crazy sometimes. They are just a consequence of heavy thinking, paranoia, obsessions and meds.

    • Open Prescription Drug Abuse

      Between 22 and 24: painkillers, antidepressants, benzos, at times mixed with alcohol just to wash the pain away. I guess I've been close to death more than once.

      At 24 i've got this problem because of a sliding hiatal hernia. It is really painful, but somehow it helped me to get back to my normal weight.

      Most guys out there are just looking for the right girl. I've always been looking for the "right me". I feel like I've been ready for a relationship for a year, at least I've been thinking it as acceptable, I fell in love for the first time last September. So I've just got the "right me" and the "right girl". Being in love is awesome.

    • Open Hyperhidrosis

      Sometimes my hands perspire too much. That makes me feel uncomfortable. Not sure if that is hyperhidrosis since it doesn't happen all the time. It might be related to anxiety.

    • Open Smoking Addiction & Recovery

      I've been a smoker for almost a year at the age of 23. I started because I wanted to find a sort of socially accepted drug with no side effects instead of prescribed antidepressants and antipsychotics. I hated the smell and I had a strong will, so it was quite easy to stop. Now I hate smoking more than before because I know what being a smoker means.

      Treatments

    • Open Diets & Weight Maintenance

      Due to the weight gain caused by the drugs I've been taking, I've been overweight for 3 years and for few days I reached a mild form of obesity. I'm almost back to my normal weight, since i've lost 40 lbs in one year and a half .
