Depression has made me feel great empathy and care for those who are upset. I will often go to great lengths to make someone's day better because I don't want them to go through another sad thought. I want to protect and help others. I don't want them to stew around all day like me.

Sort of related, but I've always imagined that mental illness acts as a natural defense against mind powers. So when the mind controlling aliens come to Earth, the mentally ill will be immune because the aliens are unable to control such warped and damaged minds, and we'll be the only ones left to fight them.

>>4785 I wouldn't say it's completely rational however. I'm not an expert in the empathy department but from my understanding from others it's physical, isn't it? like when someone is sad or is hurt you put yourself in their shoes and also feel sad and in pain to some degree? Correct me if I'm wrong but that sounds very annoying and if everyone was sitting around feeling sorry for eachother nothing would get done, everyone would be in emotional pain to some degree. This sounds extremely obnoxious and irrational.

>>6151 On the surface one would guess that, but no. Further evaluation revealed that it was schizoid PD.
Well, that is a bit untrue. What actually happened was that there were multiple things on the diagnosis sheet or whatever a day before my release at the mental hospital.
There was:
Schizoid
Aspergers
Chronic Depression
Generalized Anxiety.
Of course this was two years ago and a lot of the traits of being a sperg left me as I grew older. I still retain problems with body language, though, but that is because I rarely practice it. On the contrary, all of the traits of Schizoid remained such as the vivid internal fantasy life, the lack of any desire for relationships, the high interest in metaphysical/spiritual matters, and so forth.
As for the latter two, chronic depression(dysthymia) and generalized anxiety, those seem more or less to be part of schizoid PD as a whole.
I am probably going to go back for re-evaluation since I have changed a lot since my last visit. Mostly because I fear that I am starting to progress into schizophrenia as I have been getting extreme senses of paranoia lately not to mention hearing and seeing things out of my control(have always had hallucinations, but they were generally self induced via my own will.)

Have or do you still have autistic traits such as a very limited diet, trouble with things like tying your shoes,disliking certain fabrics, wearing the same several things over and over?
Once you were properly diagnosed did you feel better?
In the sense that you knew what you were up against as opposed to just the terrible feeling that your mind is in revolt and you don't know why?

>>6155 >Have or do you still have autistic traits such as a very limited diet, trouble with things like tying your shoes,disliking certain fabrics, wearing the same several things over and over? I don't care for beef, but that is about it.
I didn't learn to tie my shoes until I was like 7 or 8. Even then, I tie my shoes like once every couple months and just slip them on and off as I leave them double-knotted.
I don't think I am any different for disliking scratchy winter sweaters(nobody I know likes them, they just wear them because they are warm.)
As for wearing the same things over and over, I think that would be true. Like I said, I am not very materialistic thus meaning I don't have a huge variety of clothing beyond what is necessary(a set of dress clothes, a coat for cold weather, and casual clothing to last a week)
Fuck yes. It felt like I had finally found 'the answer.' Like the puzzle was finally solved. I finally understood why I am the way I am and, despite the obvious negative drawbacks to having the disorder(s), it made me feel like I had found my "purpose" or "destiny." To me, there is no greater feeling than to know 'you' than you have already known before. To be ignorant of your true self is suffering.
