Hey, I was wondering if someone needs credit to buy things. People in my family have said I wouldn't be able to buy a car or a house without credit. But if I'm saving up cash to pay for things outright, do I really need credit?

Note: I’m sorry if this is the wrong place to ask.

Honestly, that's the funny part. I have rarely, if ever, lied in the past few years. I just don't see the point. If people don't wish to accept me or don't like what I do, I don't exactly care. Sometimes, it's fun to keep the argument going. But yeah, that's not all I was getting at. I do meet the psychopathic spectrum, which has deeply influenced my life. I see the world and perceive what's right and wrong drastically differently. Also, if you think what I’ve said here is what I’m talking about, no. It’s what I say on a day-to-day basis that can be absolutely out of this world gruesome and insane but that also opens the door for crazier ideas and more fun, including taking bigger risks. While it’s true that the portrayal of psychopaths in media often focuses on a lack of empathy or emotion, the reality is more nuanced. Psychopaths can indeed experience a range of emotions, though they might feel or express them differently. For me, while I used to feel a broad spectrum of emotions, I now mostly experience love and negative feelings. Since the only positive emotion I experience is love, it has significantly amplified both the depth of love I feel and the amount I can give to others. Now that I think about it, it’s always been that way. My favorite thing is ensuring others don’t go through what I experienced.

Please talk to a licensed medical professional and take a break from the internet until you get better.

Then you've been going through a psychological break and posting things with zero connection to reality. That's not better, that's worse.

I find it perplexing that some perceive what I share as disconnected from reality. Everything I post reflects my current life experiences, including my personal growth and related developments. My medical team is aware of these experiences, and they are corroborated by others who have witnessed them.

Regarding the capacity to love, it is a frequent topic of discussion. Why should there be a limit to the number of people one can love or care for? The idea of restricting this capacity to just two or four people seems arbitrary and unnecessary.

I have consulted both a psychiatrist and a therapist. Both professionals have confirmed that my experiences and thought processes differ significantly from those associated with psychological breaks or schizophrenia, contrary to some family members' concerns.

Not gonna answer this, could easily pick out the lies in this comment just from comparing to your post history, I think I understand fully now why involuntary commitment exists.

“It's fascinating how you suggest that comparing my comment to my post history would effortlessly reveal any inaccuracies. It seems you’re making quite a statement but holding back on the specifics. If you’re as insightful as you claim, why not share your findings with the rest of us?”
