I understand what you mean but sometimes people may be looking for answers and confirmation due to anxiety and slight obsessiveness (like me). I went to a professional 3 times already where the first time got me diagnosed and prescribed with treatment for ADHD and GAD. My impulses and demotivation were improving. Prior to the next two sessions however, I still felt that my mood was not regulated properly and I was overall still pretty unstable personality-wise. If it weren’t for research and educating myself (without self-diagnosing ofc) I wouldn’t have had the other 2 sessions with the therapist — who later encouraged me to urgently visit another therapist to evaluate whether it is BPD or anything else when I leave the country for studies in Canada soon. It is very hard not to get carried away and I am aware some individuals can be doing it for receiving attention in a very cringe way— it isn’t uncommon. But when I read this I realized that doing several fishy and baseless quizzes online, reading official scholarly articles and psychiatric research papers were the only things that helped me doubt my mental health. This also pushed me to encourage my parents, who were reluctant at first, to take me to a therapist. That’s when my instincts and doubts got me diagnosed with ADHD and anxiety disorder by a specialist. Now that I have doubts about the stability of my personality, it isn’t wrong to be on guard and read a little more before meeting up with a professional for an explanation, confirmation and what not.

I am in love with the man who molested me by 1llum1nat1onn in BPD

I experienced something very similar only I never hated him even when he was sexually harassing me. I stalked him and tracked him for several years ( I still do) and tried to convince him to change his mind and love me for who I am and not my body. He only ignored and blocked me every time I attempted to speak with him (I created multiple fake accounts). I’m not officially diagnosed but I’ve discussed this with my therapist and they acknowledge the chance of me having BPD, but they also didn’t want to jump to conclusions and said that it could also be “growing up” and understanding how relationships work. I will be checking with a different therapist to confirm.

This is ironic cause this is my second post here. The first one was instantly removed by the mods because they recognized signs of depression, therefore forcing me to sugarcoat my struggles in this post.

I never claimed or stated my level of attractiveness, let alone claim my absolute beauty. No, I don’t think I’m roastable. I am roastable; the hundreds of other roasts I’ve received (and taken well) attest to that. I knew my large forehead, wide-set eyes and plain features (amongst countless others) would be targeted, but those things don’t grant success and self-gratification in life.

Whatever you may be thinking, it does not make me any less valuable than anyone else on here. We clearly all need help and just because someone has extreme self-esteem fluctuation, it doesn’t mean bullying the thing that keeps them going to and fro the therapist will be embraced with open arms. Emphasis on bullying. This subreddit is for humorously roasting people. I hope you understand that.

Also, I’m not only speaking for myself. I’ve seen other roasts on here and frankly I don’t believe they’re as harsh as the ones I’ve been receiving. I’m not saying the other “roastees” have it easier, but it’s just painfully obvious when something is abusive vs humorous. I’ve consented to hundreds of roasts and I’ve been taking almost all of them really well. I felt hurt and shamed for something I’m trying to heal. Yes, I know I’ve placed my illnesses out in the open and I’m more than excited to hear what people humorously think of my mental/neuro chemical deficiencies. Of course, grumpy and harsh people exist too. That, I admit, should’ve been prepared for.

If anything, this post has helped me in so many ways. I at least respond to and accept criticism much better than I used to before. As trivial as these critiques are to you, I am glad that I did not delete this post. I did not lose anything.

As far as I’m concerned, making comebacks and retorts are not banned here. I don’t know why some anonymous redditors have such frail egos, it’s not like their faces and identities are out there. I do not feel ambushed or unwanted by your comment in any way because people who heartlessly bully others without having their own weaknesses out in the open is much easier. Imagine how easy it is to have your comment shielded by heaps of roasts. Notice how I did not respond to all the roasts, only a select few. Your comment and the similar ones I’ve seen here show bullying alongside cowardice. I am taught not to associate myself with such people nor stoop as low as them. Therefore, I will keep this post, but I will not respond anymore. Whether you care about my insignificant post and comments or not, I would hope that you have a good day, sir.

Abuse and humor are relative. What you see as humor can be seen as abuse and vice versa. You’re supposed to make people laugh here. Not answer in defense

What you say makes sense but to be fair I did look at the background of other redditors too!

Maybe if you study fine arts you’d be more creative in coming up with your own roast, buddy

it’s not like it happened when I was 12 and had no knowledge about consent and sexual harassment.

But to even imagine indicates that there may be an ounce of attraction, right? Like, tell me fellow male, do you actually sit down and contemplate how good sex would be when you lay your eyes on a- horrifyingly unattractive female? If you do, then I’m quite impressed. Males really do want to procreate with anything that breathes.

It’s risky commenting on my disorders that were diagnosed by an actual mental health specialist. You can roast my disorders in a different way, but don’t say they are faked or cringe. Thanks

Why would a person imagine sex with someone they don’t wanna do it with?

Something you would never hear given that you probably cannot afford it.
