>>677860350
Then I would say it is merely intrusive thoughts; nothing to worry about. See a doctor if you start to get the impulse to actually DO such things.

See, your brain has entire circuits dedicated to running simulations on possible events, to make you able to deal with them. You probably are just experiencing that not being suppressed properly. Not really a big deal unless it moves to self harm.

I'm trying to figure out why some friends of mine keep avoiding me. I get along with most people, but I think I made a mistake with this group and was overly preachy. I probably didn't listen enough to them too. I think they are pretty cool, but they tend to exclude me from their group chats and activities alot and that makes me sad. Everyone I ask tells me I should stop trying to be friends with these people but I don't like quitting or giving up. I think Maybe my ego is in the way. I sometimes think I go back for humble pie, since it's hard to find people who dislike me as much as this group does and I like to maintain perspective. What I'd really like is to get along with these people. I've known them for years and we have years of baggage to let go of, and maybe they don't want to let go of why they dislike me. Even if I'm ready to move on and not participate in those behaviors, I want to respect their choice to still hold me accountable for what I've done. I just get frustrated because things years in the past keep getting in the way of having a happy peaceful future. If you'd provide some insight into my situation I'd appreciate it.

Wait, back up. Did you just insult me, claim I was lying, then ask for help? Are you serious?

Fine. I'll be the better japanese picture poster and ignore your rudeness. TALK TO YOUR GIRLFRIEND. Tell her you are unsatisfied or have high libido. Without communication your relationship will not get better.

It may be as simple as her using her hands or mouth or a fleshlight, or even providing you hot pictures during the day, or teasing you before you masturbate, etc etc. But ANYTHING is better than just keeping it to yourself and boiling over it.

If you love her, truly love her, expose yourself to her and let her in. Maybe she'll reject you, but that's the risk you take with a relationship. Don't be afraid of it.

Let her know how you feel.

I've been vaping for 14 days now and I'm worried about popcorn lung. Supposedly 88% of vapers show symptoms of popcorn lung after 14 days of continuous use. I fear I'm addicted at this point and I don't know how to quit, or if it's worth popcorn lung. Could this be rooted in my childhood?

Not recently have I asked how to make amends. They just don't seem to want to forgive me. I'm not even sure what I did that was so terrible that they would ostracize me for years. I want to try asking how to make amends but I'm really afraid they will shut me out again. I'm not entitled to their forgiveness, they don't have to forgive me... I don't know if I'm wrong for wanting or hoping to be forgiving, I don't know what I did wrong, aside from being "generally awful" I've tried listening closely to all criticisms of my behavior and to crack down on all displays of inappropriate behavior. I can and will control myself, but I can't control them... they will feel however they want about me. I just wish I could make it better or find closure.

I'm gay, but het porn arouses me. Does this make me bi?
>>
>>677865136
Not OP but so far I've been studying psychology at a university for 4 years and it seems that you aren't as emotionally close to family as you think you are. Whilst on the other hand, you tend to form an emotional bond with the characters you see on TV. You identify with them, and thus it has an effect on your emotions when something happens to them.
>>
>>677865345
Generally, sexuality is not viewed as a series of points, but as a continuum. So you could be 75% gay, and 25% straight, or what we call "gay leaning bi".

Actually, schizophrenia seems to be related to addiction and parkinsons, of all things. Autism is comorbid, but that may be due an unrelated third factor.

Correlation doesn't imply causality, after all.

>>677866257
Both, and it depends on the illness; the evidence suggests that it must be determined on a case by case basis.

I'm not OP, but I think I have insight. I've since gotten over my incest fetish, but back in the day I was really in to taboo kinks.

Because you consider it forbidden. It's pretty typical for such fetishes; anal, for example, is not particularly better than vaginal sex for men, but is fetishized because it is seen as forbidden.
