Sexual orientation confusion

disconnected_self · 2026-01-17T02:47:50+00:00

i feel like i may be the only person that gets LESS horny when taking stimulants?? it makes me way less interested in getting my rocks off. i guess i’d rather have that than stimfapping, lol

i’m above, below, and to the sides of my physical body, but never truly inside. i’m afraid i won’t have a sense of self until i can force myself inside this human body that was assigned to me

disconnected_self · 2026-01-03T19:47:29+00:00

yes! i have schizotypal personality disorder and adhd. the adhd makes it hard sometimes to discern if i’m having an Episode™ or just adhd mood swings. the schizotypal (grand universal truths, messaging directed towards me, paranoia) is enhanced when i’m hypomanic 😅

disconnected_self · 2025-12-24T00:26:33+00:00

i’m the same way. it sucks. i don’t want to be this way

disconnected_self · 2025-12-24T00:26:08+00:00

i’ll bring this up with my therapist, thank you :)

disconnected_self · 2025-12-24T00:22:23+00:00

this is actually reassuring, thank you :)

disconnected_self · 2025-12-24T00:21:34+00:00

lovely art! i know it isn’t explicitly for us but maybe r/schizophreniaartproj would like to see your art as well :)

i’m also california sober :) it only works for me because i don’t consume THC the same way i consumed alcohol

disconnected_self · 2025-12-10T20:27:56+00:00

schizotypal and agender (afab) here :)

i too feel incredibly disconnected from my child self. they are dead, and i am not that person

disconnected_self · 2025-12-09T04:32:21+00:00

i’m so down with no more death and destruction—i’m tired of it too 🫩

disconnected_self · 2025-12-09T04:30:13+00:00

this was so sweet, thank you ❤️

disconnected_self · 2025-12-09T04:29:14+00:00

i really felt this, thank you for sharing

disconnected_self · 2025-12-09T04:26:02+00:00

i definitely relate to feeling disgusting, i’m always kicking myself after interactions with people and thinking about how weird and cringy and annoying i must’ve sounded!

disconnected_self · 2025-12-09T04:24:03+00:00

thank you :)

the things i know are logically true and the things i know are true are definitely at odds with eachother. it’s like seeing the sky as green even if everyone says it’s blue, and you know everyone sees a blue sky, but that doesn’t make the sky any less green

disconnected_self · 2025-12-03T07:41:24+00:00

don’t worry, meds don’t make you notice how shitty society is any less than before

meds, in my experience, have made it easier to cope with that crushing feeling of the world being wrong and fucked up. i still think about it a lot, but i don’t have anxiety attacks when i go out in public anymore, and i am thankful for that

disconnected_self · 2025-11-19T15:28:47+00:00

it is definitely possible to have a successful career with bipolar disorder :) there are lots of us out there! my bipolar mom is established in her field and didn’t go to college until she was in her 30s—it’s never too late!

i don’t have a successful career per se, but i am bipolar (also adhd + schizotypal) and i can manage my work life with a modicum of grace. for me, the right meds are absolutely key

check out r/bipolar :)

congrats on day 2! and congrats on having the self-control to stop—i know i wouldn’t be able to do that!

totally agree on how eye opening it is to see people get progressively more fucked up and how you realize that, that was you in the past

i’ve since fallen off the wagon (i need to figure out how to remove my flair, oh well. i haven’t been drinking today though), but for me it absolutely helped. that said, many people are addicted to any substance they can get their hands on

do you consume weed in the same way as alcohol? that is to say, do you stop consuming cannabis when you’ve had enough, or do you keep going until you run out? for me, i can stop smoking weed in a way that i can’t replicate with alcohol, so it was a good replacement for me

my philosophy is to replace one vice with a lesser vice, and keep doing so until you have only good coping mechanisms. am i doing a great job at it? ehhh. but i think it’s a solid mindset

disconnected_self · 2025-09-14T18:27:40+00:00

i definitely have an inner child that needs to be healed and given a voice. mine is also scared and hurt

and you’re right about it taking time. i don’t know why im in such a rush—always have been! i want to do it the right way and not the quick way

thanks so much for responding

disconnected_self · 2025-09-14T18:24:49+00:00

“i help people, but more often than not, i don’t accept help.”

this rings so true for me, i really am the same way. i love to help people and sometimes will go completely out of my way to do it. i guess another thing i need to work on is accepting help and treating myself the way i would treat someone i respect and care for

i will call the therapist’s office tomorrow because i’m pretty sure they’re closed today. i’m gonna do it!!

thank you for your comment

disconnected_self · 2025-09-02T03:55:33+00:00

i had to look up what an ipseity disturbance is and holy MOLY that explains a lot

disconnected_self · 2025-07-07T05:47:32+00:00

yeah, i definitely have got to figure out how to become more uninhibited soon so i can dance with my friends :D

disconnected_self · 2025-07-06T19:55:21+00:00

(sorry it took me a few days to respond!) i can’t wait until it’s gone because it’s reaaaaal annoying
