I recently discovered that when I start to get depressed, I watch a TON of girly-ass anime. It actually helps me get out of depression's downward spiral faster than I used to, so it's kind of cool to know.
It's almost a curse to have the ability to cripple peoe with words, sometimes without even trying. I hope to get better as you have with doing the opposite like you have, cause it sure opens more doors then the other wayFalloutJack said:

Several things.
That I'm a furry.
When I was first confronted with this, it was pretty darn confusing to me. I knew I definitely was but it didn't make sense to me in my logical mind. It was all rather weird for a while... [small]and sexy.[/small] I pursued any information on the subject and most importantly, this question of "Why?" that I had for a while. I found out a lot of very important things and an answer to my main question so I guess that's all settled.
That I second-guess pretty much everything.
Made this realization a while ago but still recent enough to mention. I don't make it apparent that much really but it's still there. I doubt that I'll get a job. I doubt that I WON'T get a job. I doubt the terribleness of the world. And I doubt that the world really is as good as people sometimes say it is. All this also ties in with...
That I am a hybrid of opposite personality traits
Sometimes I'm very aggressive and sometimes I'm very passive. Sometimes I'm a genius and sometimes I'm retarded. I'm not kidding about any of this. I am not exaggerating in the slightest. Even my music tastes are many and varied. Everywhere from Rap to Rock to Classical to Electronica to 70's to Video Game music.

May sound odd but I realized that I actually enjoy a particular kind of dubstep. I absolutely abhor the genre as a whole since it just sounds like transformers having sex with each other and also cause a lot of it is very bro-ish and unoriginal. I found a track called strangers by the artist names seven lions. Can't stop listening to x_X
Prevented suicides, armchair psychological help, bolstering self-esteem, sage words of advice... There's one site that's nicked me as the resident Gandalf. The only downside is that it's draining sometimes. Emotional investment takes its toll.version4point7 said:It's almost a curse to have the ability to cripple peoe with words, sometimes without even trying.

I recently discovered I'm a lot uglier than I thought I was. That was actually quite depressing.
I also discovered I have had a massive improvement in understanding complex inorganic chemistry over the last 2 years. Thinking back I can't believe I actually was that stupid.

I am sexually repulsed by male voices. I knew I wasn't attracted to men obviously but I just recently realized how big a part of that the voice played in it. I'm assuming it's to an unnatural extent. I'm not just talking about porn either. Even during actual sex, mood music with a male vochalist, the TV on in the other room too loud to mentally tune out, hell, I can even turn myself off if I let out any kind of noise that isn't a voiceless grunt or shudder.
Well I found out recently almost everybody I know hates my goatee. That stung quite a bit. I'm not going to shave it for the sake that I like it and I believe it suits me. However, my friends appear to disagree, implying that it makes me seem "greasy" and "sleazy."
I've got a few more personal things:
I've come to the conclusion that I'm terribly, cripplingly lazy. I think I has a lot to do with the fact that I've never worked a singled day in my life ever and I never had the desire for money since I never went anywhere and I was never very trendy.
I'm working on fixing this, but man do old habits die hard.
I think things will finally get started one I'm employed in some kind of job.

I only recently realised that I live, as my friend FJ says, like a duck.
People see you and assume you're chilled, that everything's perfectly fine, but underneath you're paddling like an absolute madman.

I realized i can't watch football anymore (soccer for you american people), it's just boring, it's pretty much all fake anyway and i'd guess that most of the games are fixed. Not even my national team and not cheering for your national team in this shitty country means being murdered if you confess it publicly (croatia).
I can't think of anything really other than that I managed to find a way to accidently cut up my hand and fingers without noticing it till I handle something acidic. I'm still trying to solve the mystery how I now have four paper cuts I gave myself on my finger.
I guess there's also that want to stylize my hair a lot more other than just long. But I would assume my father would highly disapprove considering his reactions to getting my nails painted(though the girl that did it did absolutely terrible so I guess fair play)

Visual stimuli have provoked unexpected emotions in previously unknown areas of my brain over the last several years. I do not have the first idea about why it responded positively to the things I saw or how to best proceed. When I choose not to indulge those parts of my brain, I find them deeply uncomfortable and difficult to acknowledge. They have brought me some pleasure, but at the moment I do not believe that I would wish to live if they were known to anyone other than myself. Sometimes, it would seem, discretion is the lesser of two evils.
I am confident that I can, with practice, separate the best and worst of my thoughts and personality so as to ultimately placate both the misanthrope and philanthropist. I cannot reliably sustain either for a prolonged period of time, so they take turns at the wheel from hour to hour or day to day, whenever I see something inspiring or selfish, beautiful or heartbreaking.
Maybe I do think too much for my own good, but turning thoughts into words is at least a time-consuming process that occupies time I could otherwise spend poorly. When you do not want thoughts any more, it is a small relief to have somewhere to put them.
