Kind of reminds me of the phobias and fears threads, dreams and goal threads, and all sorts of things several forums have up somewhere, sometime, in some way.
Basically, have a personality disorder? A mental disorder? Some kind of emotional distresser? Share, why not - might make you feel better. But, please, too many people say "Oh! LOOK! I HAVE A.D.D.", and they say so mainly because they are hopped up on jolt cola and eat too many sugar coated breakfast cereals - which is not add, or hyperactive at all, it's simply a suguar rush - a very long one. So none of that kind of seld diagnose please.
Me, I have been diagnosed with ADHD, paranoia, a emotional control disorder, and damn near anything that became popular or known in the 80's and early 90's. By the time I was in junior high was even more ridiculed and I learned that in 1st grade my school (of all people) labled me mentally handicapped - without any tests, and that I was placed in slow classes, which probably explains a few things about why I would be diagnosed with various syndroms and such, that has never been proven.
The reasoning for this was because I could not speak coherently, for that matter I couldn't write clearly, or spell (still can't spell). That and an "unhealthy imagination" (what?!) led people to believe I was somehow not up to snuff with the rest of the kids. Eventually taking IQ tests, 6 times in my life, that all proved them wrong, but always "proved" someone else right, and a new diagnose would be notched onto the list.
But, the only things any test has proven is I have an emotional problem that makes me uncaring (supposably) and a slight tendancy of paranoia. Not the crappy "the governments coming to get me! wear the tinfoil hats!" paranoia. Sometimes I tend to show a xenaphobic disorder - but I don't see it.
So, does anyone else wanna say how mentally aschewed they are?
