^not a request for advice.

I can use some advice. I’m stuck in a situation that confuses me, consumes everything, exhausts me. I can’t figure out the right thing to say or do. I’ve tried everything I can think of and nothing helps. What should I do?

My advice would be to describe what the situation is to better understand your situation before someone can give you advice. Pls be more precise about your situation.

I have a question. Why did Lance get ogg to post his lame goodbye to lit, never to return with a lame alt, only to return with several lame alts?

Why me? Because he thought I would comply with a reasonable request. Why did he return? No idea. Apart from the farewell message that I posted and his thanks I have had no contact with Lance outside the forums.

Everyone in my life, everyone I come in to more than casual, incidental contact with, including my family, friends and coworkers, are part of a secret conspiracy that is somehow all about me, but I’m the only one not “in” on it. In other words, everyone I know is trying to do something about me, without me. All I get from anyone lately is a reflection, a mirror, of myself, or some aspect of my personality, my history, me. No them. And trying to figure out what is going on, why everyone is changing, and not acting right, why they would do this, who would bother, why nobody responds in the typical way for a human in this world anymore... is making me totally fucking batshit crazy. Maybe I was selected for a super-secret reality to show. Maybe I’m part of a top-secret research experiment on human behavior. A pilot program and people are noting and measuring my responses. Maybe I’m paranoid. I am taking Zoloft and Abilify and seeing talking doctors twice a week now. So, there’s that. They think my “magical thinking/psychosis” are secondary to severe, untreated depression and will go away once the depression is treated. I don’t know. It feels real to me. I think my doctors are part of the conspiracy. I don’t trust anyone. I’m tired of not knowing what everyone else knows. It’s lonely in here.

So, let the public shaming begin. For the record, I already hate myself enough for all of us. Maybe you could spare me the inevitable additional hate.

A: I think you should trust your doctors and family and give your treatment time to help you get on track. Also, believing in a better tomorrow is always good advice.

I totally understand. You should talk to AlotLikePhysche. You 2 seem to have something in common.

Great. Think Positive.

Anne and Psyche,

From a lay person's point of view what you describe appear to be symptoms of the depression you are seeing the doctors about.

The feelings that everyone else is out to get you are normal symptoms of depression, the signs of the illness, and not real.

You should listen to your doctors, not to me or other people on Literotica.

A: My advice in this would be to focus on yourself.

I am. And my self wants an answer to my question.
