Let me first say the title you picked for your post is what caught my attention. Even now it surprises me when I find someone who shares a view. I'm not sure when it happened, but in my childhood my feeling of 'other' switched to that of 'non-human.' Reading your experience gives me hope maybe I can gain a feeling of belonging somewhere other than in my house.

May your travels lead you to what makes you happy.

Thank you, and the same to you. Now, I still haven't found anywhere in the real world where I can say that I 'belong'. But I know now that it's a real place, and it's out there somewhere. And I'll find it in time.

I was, of course, quite manic when I wrote all that stuff up there. And now I'm not.

It was an interesting two months, to say the least. People I hardly knew literally came up to me and hugged me, telling me what a great person I was. Everywhere I went, people were just happy to see me. I felt a lot of things that I've never felt before. Happiness. Empathy. Compassion. Love. And now it's all gone again. The high is gone, and I have now entered quite a severe depression. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder type II today.

I feel like a new introduction is in order here, as I'm definitely not the person who started this thread.

Hello. I'm odd2k, and I'm a sociophobic, depressive, misanthropic and somewhat sociopathic wreck of a human being. I have a very long way to go before I'll be even remotely near "ok"; it seems that you can't just wake up one day and find that you're a perfect human being. On my road to self-improvement, I hope to connect with others who share my fate, as well as people who have already surpassed the immense obstacles I find before me. Additionally, I hope to just make friends here, and so I welcome any and all PMs sent my way.
