I think I might be a Psychopath?
Recently a number of event have made question my sanity.
First off, I'm in the middle of a "divorce" . I use quotes, because no paperwork has been filed (there's a long story, that I'll get to in a minute). In my mind (for all its worth, nowadays) I am in the middle of a horrific divorce that hasn't even started yet. all that has happened is me saying "I wanna divorce", him saying "no.", me going downtown to "file"- as if things were that easy, and learning why the phrase "its cheaper to keep her" came about. but all in all, I feel like I don't even care anymore. Like, if given the choice to stand up and fight or just slip away into the darkness that life has become, I'd - without sounding extra dramatic - chose the latter...
Secondly, I keep having these anxiety attacks. the shortness of breath. the elevated heart beat. the feelings of running in the street like a crazy person ripping clothing (I'm not how the nakedness fits into this equation) screaming crazy (whatever classifies as crazy) stuff at anyone willing to listen... I feel like I keep having to talk myself off the ledge.
Thirdly, I don't know if this is a symptom but I've been increasingly selfish. I guess when the matters come directly to me i get emotional, but other people, not so much..
I guess me getting my hands on a DSM-IV doesn't help matters much...
Maybe I'm a hypochondriac (I spelled that right on the FIRST try) its the small victories.
Maybe I should see someone... key word being maybe. What do I say? Hi, my name is Trish, and I might be a Psychopath. Is the fact that I think I'm a psychopath the first sign that I'm NOT a psychopath? I mean wouldn't I have to think that there's nothing wrong with me? Maybe I just need to chill out...
One thing I'm sure about is that there is DEFINITELY something wrong with me..
I need help.
disclaimer - this is NOT a cry for help.
