Does anyone else feel like they have something that there is no name for?- i feel that i have 'DoorMat Syndrome" - its like i lay down and tell people to feel free to walk all over me.... i can't say no to anyone who needs help even if it means not being true to myself and if i do say no and they need me i usually give in and say i'm sorry- so just thought i'd share- if u have any syndromes u would like to share feel free......

I have delusionalmovie realism disorder.

When I watch movies I can relate TOO much to them and I FEEL they are real. Watching horrors is bad as I believe they will happen.

I also almost take on the persona of the main character after watching a lot of movies.

I have what I call the twitchies... it's where I go all blank emotionally, but I can see the emotions inside me ripping my soul apart, but I can't feel a thing. I'm empty. Only thing is when the twitchies stop, everything I should have felt in the time I was blank, somes at me all at once. Yet, I can't cry. No matter how much it hurts.
