I read the whole thing, and the whole time was thinking that it sounded very much like a friend of mine, who is paranoid schizophrenic.


I meet lots of people who are, or have been, in psychiatric hospitals and the paranoia is familiar, as is the length of the post. Those people aren't as coherant, and their rants tend to skip around a lot more between completely unconnected stuff.

So, yeah, I'm pointing and laughing, but also recognizing that this guy might be ill.

I've seen his website. He's definitely heading down that road. He's not JDM-level or anything, but he's getting there.

"A mob mentality has taken over. The dark side of human nature has emerged." Are you freaking kidding? The fact that anyone on this site....much less a "mob" would stalk you...is just ludicris in my eyes eeek

The more I noticed the chill, the quieter I became. I started using my cam less and stopped watching other people's cams. I think my attempts to make myself invisible aroused suspicions even more. I think that may have been a mistake.



go anon! seriously, if you have to think this much about it...go anon. i have no doubt that you will be forgotten about very quickly.

I wanted to say I have talked to men older than you in chat before and had amazingly pleasant conversations.. they had webcams and mic's and never seemed to get any shit. I dont really think its an issue if you lurk in the chat either.. people do that all the time... no problem.. shit.. sometimes I just lurk cause Im to lazy to hold a conversation.

I think one of 2 things is probably happening..

1. you need to contact the police and get a restraining order. As do a scan on your computer for spyware, etc.

2. you might need to seek psychological assistance. The way you talk about things reminds me of my paranoid schizo (sp?) ex husband.

I was wondering why you think that a mob of people would spend their time trying to stalk you. In my opinion most guys aged 18-30 are too busy trying to get laid or make money.. or at least to concerned with how they look to dedicate their lives to someone they dont know... okay.. so yeah.. of course do what you need to to feel safe but I would seek out all the options like paranoia.

Half way through reading your post I was REALLY looking forward to fucking with you, but the more I read the more I feel for you. I intend no offense or judgement by this,I assure you it's motivated by compassion only: please, please, please seek some psychiatric help.

Seriously. You got problems. No one is stalking you. No one hacked into your computer. No one is circulating tapes of you. Get help.

Your story is odd... I don't believe that anyone on the site has the time, desire, or ability to do what you are suggesting. I suggest you give names to the staff and they will see if there is any validity to your claims.
Some of what you're suggsting isn't even really possible. Everyone on the bus would have to have bluetooth enabled right? I mean, I'm computer literate but I'm no expert if i'm wrong please correct me, but I don't think you could distribute something like that on a bus..
I have to side with the others, talk to a professional.

If you ever come back and read this thread:

Perhaps it would be better if there was more than one chat room. For example, a chat rooms organized by age or interest group. There is one group for members who are over 30. It is called "Geezers." I'd be curious to know exactly what the age demographics of SGs is. There are over a thousand members on the "Geezers" group and that obviously does not include the whole universe of the those 30 and older.



There are multiple chat rooms. Every group on SG has its own chat room, and when you're in chat you can look over on the side and see the different chat rooms you're able to get into, depending on which groups you're in. So yes, "Geezers" has its own chat room, and if you're in that group, you can use that chat room.

I'm going to be sensitive here because I know its easy to turn off to good advice when its coming at you in what appears a negative way.

I can see how what has happened to you would make you feel absolutely awful- this is totally justified, and it is understandable that things would esculate in the fashion they have towards legal action etc.
But I would ask you to do one thing, not for the people who have made you feel bad, or for those who have taken the time to read your post and given their opinions (whether they seem agreeable or not) but for yourself:
Have a look at every step of your story and ask 'what if I'm mistaken?'
I'm not saying 'wrong' or 'paranoid' or anything like that- I'm saying mistaken.
I'm going to spoiler this post as its long, but its long because I have seen these symptoms before and it is important they be looked at- not just for you, but for others in this community, as previous topics mentioned above have shown there has been a negative effect on others.
Read if you wish.

SPOILERS! (Click to view)

When something matters to you, its very easy to become protective of it, and to become very sensitive to threats to it.
I would imagine you may feel uncomfortable about people's percieved opinions of you.
But it is important to keep this in perspective and avoid assuming that if other people have a more filppant attitude to certain things, this means they are sniping you. They might merely have a flippant attitude, which is as much their right as something being important to you is yours.

It is easy to have a view that you have done nothing wrong, and just as easy to therefore assume that if there is an air of discomfort, somebody else must have done something wrong by you to create it.
In reality, often arguments start out of nothing and actually have less substance than they appear.
On another note, paranoia is not a dirty word in this day and age.
Many people suffer from it in varying degrees and it creates exactly the kind of scenarios you descrive. I have suffered from it myself, to a lesser degree, and the things I was paranoid about did happen, but not in the extreme, meaningful or noticable extent which I believed they did.
There are only two cures for paranoia- psychological help or simply taking up the attitude to mindfully notice paranoid thoughts in your head, label them so and let them go.

If all of what you say is real and true, you have a legal case against certain unnamed people.
But before mounting a legal case I would step outside yourself and examine these events, as the implications of making legal claims against things which are not there are immense.
As an example, I find the bus example quite unlikely.
I have never seen buses full of mothers and kids with laptops, and even if it were, how would the participants obtain their e-mail addresses?
There are many people your age on this site. I would suggest perhaps this is more a problem for you than it is for other individuals.
This is perfectly understandable, but if people raise it as an issue, simply tell them to go fuck themselves- its quite simple.
However, I don't believe there's anyone on the site who would possibly have a problem with it.

Perhaps write down all the factual info and cross out all the emotive stuff.
Its a good psychological therapy to get it on paper.
Be honest with yourself, and tho you may not like the results, they will help you.
Good luck.

Thanks for the bit of info AL perhaps I will check one of these group chatrooms out.

By now, most you must be familiar with me. In my defense........



I highly doubt the validity of this statement, and you're beliving it might be part of your problem. There are a LOT of people on this site. People you haven't talked to here probably have no idea who you are.

Seek a psychiatrist immediately... I'm not kidding... at first I was like ok... yeah, the newcomers alway go through a little rigamaroll so to speak... they get tested... but skipping from paragraph to paragraph the dark cloud started to appear... the part where people followed you onto a bus and 'sent whatever to everyone on the bus with laptops' reeks of extreme paranoia...EXTREME... I mean this in the most kind and benevolent way...find a pyschiatrist... you may very well suffer from schzephrenia. I only say this because I've had a few friends who were schzephrenic...your story is classic... goodluck

either that or your an excellent writer...
or an extreme attention whore...
I'm seriously going with schzephrenic though...

(honestly, this may be funny to some, but if this dude is serious, it's not good)



I read the whole thing, and the whole time was thinking that it sounded very much like a friend of mine, who is paranoid schizophrenic. The whole thing sounds very familiar to her outbursts.

Seriously, if you are having these problems, contact staff, or a doctor. I think a doctor is more appropriate.



My mom's schizophrenic, and it sounds extremely similar to scenarios she's described to me. He really should seek professional help, but if he's like my mother he doesn't think there's anything wrong with him. Anyone who tries to convince her otherwise is part of the "conspiracy" against her.

As for feeling alienated: it seems like you are the type of person who does that to himself on purpose.

As for being older: that's what the internet is for... to let you be yourself without being judged over something like age. You don't HAVE to post how old you are in your profile. Most people wouldn't even go check even if you do.

As for people stalking you: it seems like you may be suffering from something either like paranoid delusions, or severe narcissism... if you had been taking prescribed medication for these symptoms you should continue on that course. If not, you should definitely seek therapy.

As for the novel you wrote: it belongs in your journal, but you needed the attention so you posted it on the boards.

If you feel unsafe here, TELL STAFF, GO ANON, or LEAVE.



Bingo.
