The US's compromise with prostitution (another controversial yet pervasive issue) are brothels. Although prostitution's "immorality" in and of itself ...

Let's hope you never break an arm or ever need major surgery. Guess that bottle of Captain Morgan will just have to do the trick. :joke:

:razz: (My mistake, took me a sec to figure out how emotes work on this forum :sweat:)

I have a thorough analytic answer to the OP's question and also want to share further material I found to add to the topic for others contributing to ...

I wish that were true. I'm just talking on a forum concerning philosophy. Outside of this environment, I feed no fires. I hardly ever leave my little ...

Venting is my breather. I just want to get out of here. Thankfully, I've maintained enough self control not to be a criminal (for all that's worth). I...

I'm not in denial of being schizophrenic, moreover, mentally ill. But, you've gotta be aware that being considered mentally ill (to whatever degree, e...

Truthfully, I believe the reality of my situation is a bit of both. It's almost like the "Which came first, the egg, or, the chicken?" paradox. I have...

I'll admit I do believe I have some form of hormonal/structural cerebral abnormality (my personal assessment when comparing my behavior to that of oth...

It seems you take the meaning of the word "weapon" very literally. I don't know if like me, you are an American citizen. If you are, I can't say I'm a...

Well, I guess we don't see eye to eye on this, then. Even if someone were to peer into my virtual activity and not periodically convey they have in wh...

Weapon - noun. Any instrument or device for use in attack or defense in combat, fighting, or war, as a sword, rifle, or cannon. Anything used against ...

Let's see, someone would have to look into my private online conversations, identify the things discussed of the most sensitive nature to me, devise a...

You may not be as creatively sadistic as some of the individuals whom do this to me. Either that, or this is a loaded question. It's not all that diff...

I question that myself. Candidly judging myself in general, I'm dull in terms of arousing anyone's interest (among other contexts). I reside in a tent...

No, society isn't all one way or the other. I feel very confident that as the societies within nations concerned with inclusion and comprehension prog...

I know you've left, but I back tracked and found I had to address your input here. I doubt that was Leo's intent. And btw, there are alternatives to m...

My relationship to society in the context of our respective selves. And sure, I'll be around. Night Wallow. :yawn:

You're miscorrelating my way of attempting to undo years of put downs in my way of thinking at ten years old with how I presently am at odds with the ...

Sigh, and... there it is. Not everyone wants to be a hero in order to at least not be seen in either extreme -- heroically nor antagonistically. Both ...

First of all, just because someone is prone to delusions -- but has enough self-awareness to doubt their paranoia and suspicions -- doesn't necessaril...

Wa Wallow, I'm glad you've taken an interest in my thread. You may hold the typical connotative notions between Schizophrenia and Law Enforcement/posi...

True, but it ain't no walk in the park either. Those demons in the forest down by the mountain are quite terrifying and real too. Demonic representati...

And I couldn't be more relived to be comforted by that fact. Policing others and taking lethal commands have never been aspirations I've gravitated to...

The gist I took from Leo's comment is that not everything I experience is automatically made invalid all because hey, I'm Schizophrenic. That's bogus....

Leo, your ability to convey an unprejudiced third-party perspective (so to speak) to my circumstance is a cool drink of spring water in a mirage riddl...

Meant seem to forget *ever developing the urge to looking back* on their (parents') own childhood curiosities.

I would say my experience felt undamaging (if that's even a word). All the negative input strangling me seemed to dissipate in that instance of connec...

I had a friend stay out here with me for a while. I'm alone now, but it's probably best this way.

Yeah, that's what I'm holding out for. It probably comes as no surprise that I have an interest in the fantasy genre (being schizophrenic 'n all), and...

My sentiment exactly. Thank you for your kind hope, Bitter Crank. :)

I can see how you can be lead to make that assertion, Wallow. You haven't offended me at all. Actually, I'm appreciative of your dedicated concern.

I don't believe law enforcement would really have any interest or have the heads up to be looking into me by thoroughly hacking me. Unless DHS believe...

But, this thematic paranoia is turbulent and circumstantial.

I do sometimes wonder if certain people I unwisely confided in -- whom have implanted in my susceptible greenhouse of a mind the seed of threatening t...

I don't believe my family. nor police, nor friends are gaslighting me or playing mind tricks.

lol, I wrote a detailed response to this which has now ceased to exist.

I never claimed the police, nor my family, nor friends (which I can count, even having a hand with missing digits, if that were the case) were playing...

Fatalism? Ouch. Well, you're allowed your subjectivity, so am I. In general, no, I don't feel oppressed by the public like I had back then. I also hav...

... but, these people were my oppressors. I don't see these people as being inherently sadistic. I grew up during the 90's. It was a different time. I...

To answer your question directly, yes, I happen to miss him. Not simply nor mostly because together we were taboo, defiant and undermining a society t...

I guess if I'm not going to stop calling the World I'm in into question, it's only fair that I also never stop calling myself into question. Consideri...

I have my therapist to turn to when navigating through my traumas and to help me manage my mental condition (along with my psychiatrist) atm. I know h...

Thanks Wallow, and no worries, it's understandable to have what I considered with a bit of doubt from anyone when pointing out that I deal with mental...

:grin: (meant to end the sentence with a happy emoji)

Wow, it's mind blowing to consider that approach being taken in nurturing these students. I find it's very progressive and organic. I hope this trend ...

I very much appreciate you make this correlation and pointing it out. Even when I do, most people seem to rather link my psychological traumas to cons...

Your own emotional/psychological experience, and the insight it allowed you to gain is precisely my point. I almost feel like the vast majority of peo...

Thanks for all the thoughtful takes on what I'm going through. I'm Hispanic and my ethnicity is a non-factor in the part of the U.S. I'm at (there are...
