Great. (meant for the OP, not you, you over sensitive girly man)

I think a "fucking" forum could solve a lot of peoples problems. I'd need to learn more about cyber sex. 

Can you explain why I always have my thumb up my butt?

You should consult with vorlie about that. Unless you want to call me a sociopath., then Steel will be right behind you.

Its my memory. I remember what members said and done before. For the years I have been here. I can make my judgement call for it.

In other words, I am an asshole. Vorlie loves them.

My patience towards this forum member has been long extinguished, but I am not speaking as a mod. You do realise we mods can have personal opinions? I have been here long enough to know that the whole story about the boy that cried wolf. If you seek help, at least be humble about it.

Seriously, you have read the OP?

And I don't know any drugs that can stop me from my opinion. If you are so much stalwart defending him, then look at his post history as the forum most willing drama queen.

Otherwise, not drunk yet.. you would know for sure.

Only after a romantic dinner.

RE: Seriously, here's my deal.
As LP mentioned before the romantic dinner/ thumb in butt came up, cognitive behavioral therapy is a good place to start. You don't necessarily need to pay to see a professional for this either.

I have a great book on my bookshelf - "Feeling Good - The New Mood Therapy" by David Burns, M.D. I haven't read it in awhile but I just looked through it and I may read it again. It talks about depression and anxiety - both often go hand in hand as you probably know. It gives very practical advice and I recommend it.

Here's a link (it's only $5, worth every penny):

RE: Seriously, here's my deal.
Actually, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy is better for anxiety.  That being said, it does not sound like you suffer from social anxiety.  As LP said, people with social anxiety fear social situations, then make excuses to avoid them. Causing a confrontation in public as you describe is almost unthinkable to people with social anxiety.

I'm no psych professional either, but I'd guess that if you actually feel you are suffering from something, it might be borderline personality disorderr, which is still characterized by some anxiety, but also outbursts of unreasonable anger, unstable moods, and difficulty with personal relationships.
Or it could be Narcissistic personality disorder, which a lot of people say is just being an asshole, but don't listen to them, it's a real disorder that you can treat with therapy, if you are willing to work for it.

That being said, I recommend that you see a real professional and get a diagnosis.  Then get treatment.  Don't be afraid of medications, but at the same time don't accept medications alone for any mental health treatment, something I feel too many doctors rely on too much.  Request therapy, then keep looking until you find a therapist and a therapy that work for you.

Every person in the world could benefit from learning techniques from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy.  I was on anxiety meds for decades.  DECADES.  I am now weaning off of them, and should be drug free withing the next 45 days, and the only thing in all these years that has helped me cope is this particular therapy.  It has a very high success rate with hard to treat mental issues, but it takes a lot of work and dedication.

At any rate, go talk to a professional, and good luck.

If I have to fathom a guess, it also might be Asperger's or schizoid personality. But it's nevertheless practically impossible to tell online since most, if not all, of us don't get to observe him live in person in various situations and we barely know his history and background. So yes, get diagnosed by a professional first, OP. That way, you have a better idea of what you struggle with.
