Re: Internal struggles

Dee
How about you? Have you undergone any trauma before? Or any internal struggles before? This is likely an assumption but it must have been a revelation(or not) or even a struggle to realize that there…


Ah, you didn’t finish. Even a struggle to realize that there are… what?

Trauma… Yes, I’d say so. Daddy dearest wasn’t exactly the sweetest father figure in the world. Mommy dearest, well meaning soul that she is, is one of those weak, neurotic women who lie to themselves about their husbands abusive behavior. My childhood was my “trauma”. But it does not bother me much anymore. I used to hate my father and did a few things to him to register my displeasure with him. But that was a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away. I see him and her now and I get along with them just fine.

Internal struggles… I did go through a phase of trying to be normal. Not just act normal, which I’ve been doing for almost as long as I can remember, but actually be normal. I finally understand why that was never going to happen and that I should simply be myself in all my awesome glory. ;-)

Religion… What can I say about the history of religion? I’ve done a little light reading on the subject but for the most part, I don’t know how it came to be. It must have been very useful to the species as a whole though since it’s so ubiquitous. You pointed to the obvious uses. I think religion (and by religion, I mean faith or belief in the absence of evidence) will be with mankind for a long, long time to come. It managed to not only survive the Enlightenment here in the West, but to actually grow stronger and thrive in the modern world. Since that seems to be case, I suppose there is no good reason why smart people shouldn’t make use of religion for all the reasons you point out yourself. My only quibble with your comments was the part where you equate science with religion. Religion, as I define it and as it is popularly practiced, is belief in the absence of or even despite, evidence. Science is the exact opposite, which is why it’s proven so effective and reliable down through the centuries.

Bah… it’s past 12 a.m. and my head hurts. I really should write shorter posts in the future.


You apparently had a lot to say. You sounded angry in your post. You say you are also doing better. Maybe you are. At the very least, you are not whining about the unfairness of it all. Disney was right. I haven’t run into too many whiners on this forum, which is very nice. Good for you for deciding to at least try to face the world as it is rather than hide behind childish fantasies.

Why are you interested in me when Daniel seems so willing to answer your questions?

All the faith in the world won't change ah thing.

This person.. I would guess.. followed me from mytherapy.com? They don't like psychopaths at mytherapy.com. They get upset when we interact with others. They're afraid of our influence. Scared we will harm them. Sheep.

and i NEVER did VISITED that website and i DOES not afraid of YOUR or YOURS ORGANIZATION influence. i DOES not tells you MINE home ADDRESS so yours ORGANIZATION or YOUR canot touch ME so does not CAN harm either. but GOD does can touch you WHEREVER you does be. He not HARM but He DOES watches..

Re: Internal struggles

LOL

God doesn't make mistakes. Remember? So using the Bibles reasoning I am exactly who God intended me to be. No amount of prayer is going to make the blind see or the crippled walk. I am the 1% and I am proud of it. Be like you?! Why? You think my existance is suffering? I live a better life than you. I don't have guilt or regret. I don't have internal struggles. I don't lose sleep for anything. I'm not built to look back...

You can't comprehend what I am because you think everyone is like you. You're wrong and your judgement is impaired. You're way out of your league.

Stop trying to fix what isn't broken.

Re: Internal struggles

NOPE God DOSENT makes mistakes. YOU did maked mistakes. GOD did created you in BIRTH so you DOES has good and BAD insides you. MAYBE them GOD did sended me to HELP you. I dosent THINKS your existence BE suferring but ONLY because you DOSENT knows about MINE life. YOU dosent lives BETTER life then ME.

i DOES thinks you doesnt COMPREHENDS what I AM IS. YOURS them JUDGEMENT be imparied. and what YOU does talks about LEAGUE? and you DOSENT answers question what ORGANIZATION you does be TALKEING about either.

im DOES tries to CURES you so you DOES has BE more HAPINESS in LIFE. did you TRIED speakeing to YOURS family or GOD?

Re: Internal struggles

Why are you on this forum Whitewolf? Just curious.

As for Lega: I dont understand the function of you preaching on this forum at all.

I'm here because this place interests me. It's rare a psycho can walk into any situation and not get strange looks. Here it appears to be accepted. A nice change.

Lega, you may have noble intent but let it go. :-)

Re: Internal struggles

Hey Daniel,

LOL indeed. I actually read the entirety of this site before you were on it ( and I just by accident or opportunity thought Id have a look again and found all your posts). I especially enjoyed the ask dr robert archives, there are some pretty **** existential questions being asked that you never get to read anywhere else and its without the need for attention or acting interesting; just plain confessions and help seeking and thanks to Dr. Robert's policy its to the point. I really respect the way dr. robert is capable of explaining whatever without moral judgement but his pieces still sound personal and involved. I enjoy this site better than the other one cause its more real and more... intelligent, basically. The discussion between the 2 of you was really interesting but you checking whether the doctor wasnt trying to win anything really cracked me up. Come on.

I thought you moved south though? How is your new path working out?

Ciao.

Re: Internal struggles

Daniel, i just googled your name ( ofcourse I know its fake but thats just the kind of person I am), and I found some discussion on a site called topix where someone used my alias and yours I think, or was that you for real? As you asked somewhere whether it was me ( its getting rather complicated now): no, that wasnt me...

Re: Internal struggles

LOL. Hey, I had to ask, no? I still do not believe that most people are beyond the motivation to aggrandize themselves in one way or the other, no matter what they call it or how they dress it up. The reasons people give to themselves for saying/doing things matters less than the results of said words/actions, and that applies to our dearly devoted doctor as well. Why not? He’s human isn’t he? (Btw doc, if you are reading this, no insult is intended. I merely make observations based on what I believe is true about human nature in general and not to stir up negative feelings in you, as if I could anyway.)

I enjoy this site better than the other one cause its more real and more... intelligent, basically.


Come on. I think ME does a good job of articulating his experience of what he thinks of sociopathy. It’s all personal since it’s a blog, but it is also thoughtful. More importantly for my purposes, he provided an angle on this consciencelessness business that I did not know existed. It was very illuminating for me.

I thought you moved south though? How is your new path working out?


I did move South. Not permanently though, as I expect to be going home in March. My family’s been real good to me here but surprise, it’s been boring, hence my return to internet commenting for the moment. But it has also been useful. The time away from my usual environment has given me a little more perspective on things, which was the entire point.

How’s the new job/educational opportunity going?

PS:

I just followed suit and Googled DB, Disney and Topix and no, that was not me. Wow. Seriously? Those silly kids over at Sociopathworld! You know it had to be somebody from there. The last comment was a decent impression of me though. I suppose we should feel flattered that someone even bothered. Curiously, I’m more nonplussed than annoyed.

Re: Internal struggles

Really? Thats hilarious. I totally thought it was you.

Yeah well I guess I am more drawn in by the posts here cause I feel the people on here are more honest to themselves is the main thing I guess, it satisfies my curiosity better (remember we have a different 'constitution'). SW is fun though.

IF there would be any answer to a question you have that could be absolute ( which isnt possible) which would it be? cause obviously something in your head is longing for some fix, even though youre sensible enough to know it wont happen. Play with it, what would it be.

And: werent you going for some kind of career change or into a way of making use of the way you are?

That’s an intriguing question. Unfortunately, I can’t think of one right now. I suppose I could ask something idiotic, like is there a god after all, or is there any kind of life after death. But I feel satisfied with believing there is no reason to suppose there is a god or life after death, so I've got nothing. You?

cause obviously something in your head is longing for some fix…


Is it now? That would require that I believe there is something wrong with me that needs fixing in the first place. I do not believe that. I am in the position of clarity, remember?

Re: Internal struggles

Didnt mean in your head as in some wiring that needed fixing, but more a thought process in need of a fix. Understand what I mean?

Yeah I would like to know more about death if that were possible, but its not, so...

Never had a near death experience? Death isn't so bad. It's the dying part that gets most people. :-p

See unlike Daniel.. I do have faith. I believe in an afterlife.

My thought process takes not just logical but moral considerations as well. Right and wrong are matters of perception and cultural influence. What is humane changes from culture to culture. There are a lot of considerations to make. None of which can prepare you for international communities in online forums.
