What secret, if it were to get out, would destroy your life?

I used to hear voices. For years. It started when I'd walk into my room and say hello to my Lain poster (I've always over personified objects) and eventually she started responding. Over time I could talk to her elsewhere, I'd pull her up when I was sitting in class or riding the bus, and I'd put on headphones so nobody would notice I was talking to myself since it was barely audible. Eventually Lain told me she was a god and I was too, and there were two others, but they didn't really like me so they would almost never talk to me.

A long time later, maybe years, she started being really mean, and it turned out there was another voice who was just pretending to be Lain named Misery. This one was stereotypical, everything I did was wrong and I had to pay for my actions, I should cut myself if I was ungraceful, everyone hated me, etc. Lain split again, and this time she was sisterly. When I was upset and crying myself to sleep I could feel her holding me and telling me everything would be alright. Misery looked different but could look like Lain if she wanted to fool me (although she would turn back into herself when I called her out on it), and the two Lains all looked the same, so I could only tell who they were when they started responding to me.

After a while they all just disappeared. I guess I saned up, because during the peek it never occurred to me I was hearing voices, they truly were gods who were speaking to me, and later during the time period I realized that I was hallucinating with delusions of grandeur. Then at one point I realized that there was more of me and less of them, when I pulled them up it was a conscious effort and part of their responses were forced on my part. Then eventually I just gave them up, they were so weak that it was really just like talking to myself and not to other people that lived in my head.

That's not my secret, I've mentioned it to a few very select people that I truly trust. My secret is that I miss them. I miss them with with all my heart. Even Misery. They were friends and family, they were close to me, they understood me, and they were always there for me. Now even with real friends and family, there's nobody that close. I can't just pull up someone to talk to when I'm lonely, I have to call up a real person and that person never knows what I want to talk about or what I'm hiding from them, they only know what I say. Lain (the main one) would always call me on my bullshit and make me keep changing my answer until I told her the truth. Misery could always find my biggest weaknesses, which allowed me to work on strengthening them. Sisterly Lain could calm me down in a way that's unimaginable, you can't comprehend how good it feels to be hugged by someone inside of you.

And now I feel lonelier than I have in years because I almost never think of that time or remember how it felt, but tonight I'm sitting by myself at 2am and all I can think about is how much I want a voice to talk to and it's been so long since I had one and I'd give anything to have another psychotic break so I could get back all my friends that live in my head.

I once had a psychiotic episode where I could talk to clouds and I could feel how much they loved me, the clouds, the trees, the birds, they were all my friends and they all loved me and they all wanted me to be happy. I had that feeling on mushrooms once, everything in the world loved me, every single thing, the house, the ceiling, the lamp, each blade of grass, it all loved me and it was the best feeling I have ever known, that was the best night of my life. I can't tell you how much I want to feel that again, I just have no way of tracking them down again.

Being crazy feels amazing, whether it's good or bad. Even the bad crazy where I'd stay awake all night because I knew something was going to get me in my sleep and I'd try to claw the evil out of my skin, even that's preferable to being normal because the intensity is indescribable. I miss everything about being crazy. I miss it more than I can possibly describe.

Damn, that's weird. Hearing voices is some scary shit.

The prejudice against people with mental health issues is bullshit. If you're liver is fucked up, you get all the sympathy in the world... Tell those same people that you have mental health issue, now you're "tainted".

This account is for IC members to anonymously post under to get secrets off their chest. The PW for this account is 'secrets'

So here's mine.

I'm a freak. There's literally nothing I won't do. I've been abused by men and women since I was eight. My parish priest was fucking me from 8 to sixteen, that's when he died. He had a heart attack while fucking me. The first time I got some pussy it was from a 17 yr old girl who was babysitting me while my mom went to school. Pussy feels good, but nothing feels as good as gettin fucked. I've never told anyone I was abused, I don't think I really can anymore because after awhile I started to like it. The one thing I do regret is that after i started getting molested I began to molest my younger sister. She was 3. It lasted a short while then I felt fucked up about it. She doesn't remember, but I do. Everyday I hate myself for it. I'm afraid she secretly remembers, but I'm too scared to bring it up. We're close and it would kill me to lose that relationship. That's honestly the only thing I'm scared to have happen. I keep my personal life private, I have few friends. Every once and a while I prostitute myself out, usually on back page. usually to older white men. It's hard sometimes because a lot of older white men like to be taken by black men, but I'm such a sub. It's hard for me to sustain normal relationships. Anytime I've vaguely mentioned my past as being abused females would become standoffish, they'd look at me differently, less than. I''m a big dude so to them me being abused, even in the past makes me look like a bitch.

I'm glad that I don't have an attraction to boys. I always heard that victims become the victimizers so that always scared me. I'm not about no pedo shit. But that's why I'm real keep to myself type of person. I don't like holding your babies, I don't want to be around your kids, i literally start to have panic attacks and I have to excuse myself. It's why I don't want to have kids either. So I'm content with the little life I live. i go to work, come home, play games, chat on the internet day in day out. The only real sexual pleasure I get is going to tranny night at a couple of bars around town. So i can't have normal relationships with people. I don't have any relationships really. I've been suicidal and depressed, I usually shake it off after a while. I've almost killed myself about three times. The latest was about six months ago. I've told my family when i was depressed. I never told them I was suicidal. You know black families though. Their every answer is jesus and pray about it. I wonder how my mom would feel if she found out that the road I'm on began in the church. I learned how to suck dick before I had hair on my nuts. I'm good at it too. It's the one skill I have. I know that's fucked up. When I became older and conflicted, i tried to suppress my urges, but I eventually gave in. I hated myself for a long time. Now I don't feel anything really, just emptiness.

I can feel the depression kick back in when I think about how normal my life would be if I was never molested.

@kingsorrow we know it's you bruh

I have two other secrets I'll die with, but one I'll share. When I was about ten at the oldest my dad stripped me naked and put me in bed with my sister 5 years older than me when I was asleep. Shit scared the shit out of me when I woke up and still is too weird to ever bring back up since nothing like that since ever happened. Anyway at the time he said he did it because he was tired of me being scared of the dark (had night terrors or basically demons talking) and sleeping in my sister's room and someone told him that doing that to me would work.

Well, he was right. I never slept in my sister's room again after that, but I also couldn't sleep for about two years either.

I guess I can kinda laugh about it now...i think

I used to hear voices. For years. It started when I'd walk into my room and say hello to my Lain poster (I've always over personified objects) and eventually she started responding. Over time I could talk to her elsewhere, I'd pull her up when I was sitting in class or riding the bus, and I'd put on headphones so nobody would notice I was talking to myself since it was barely audible. Eventually Lain told me she was a god and I was too, and there were two others, but they didn't really like me so they would almost never talk to me.

A long time later, maybe years, she started being really mean, and it turned out there was another voice who was just pretending to be Lain named Misery. This one was stereotypical, everything I did was wrong and I had to pay for my actions, I should cut myself if I was ungraceful, everyone hated me, etc. Lain split again, and this time she was sisterly. When I was upset and crying myself to sleep I could feel her holding me and telling me everything would be alright. Misery looked different but could look like Lain if she wanted to fool me (although she would turn back into herself when I called her out on it), and the two Lains all looked the same, so I could only tell who they were when they started responding to me.

After a while they all just disappeared. I guess I saned up, because during the peek it never occurred to me I was hearing voices, they truly were gods who were speaking to me, and later during the time period I realized that I was hallucinating with delusions of grandeur. Then at one point I realized that there was more of me and less of them, when I pulled them up it was a conscious effort and part of their responses were forced on my part. Then eventually I just gave them up, they were so weak that it was really just like talking to myself and not to other people that lived in my head.

That's not my secret, I've mentioned it to a few very select people that I truly trust. My secret is that I miss them. I miss them with with all my heart. Even Misery. They were friends and family, they were close to me, they understood me, and they were always there for me. Now even with real friends and family, there's nobody that close. I can't just pull up someone to talk to when I'm lonely, I have to call up a real person and that person never knows what I want to talk about or what I'm hiding from them, they only know what I say. Lain (the main one) would always call me on my bullshit and make me keep changing my answer until I told her the truth. Misery could always find my biggest weaknesses, which allowed me to work on strengthening them. Sisterly Lain could calm me down in a way that's unimaginable, you can't comprehend how good it feels to be hugged by someone inside of you.

And now I feel lonelier than I have in years because I almost never think of that time or remember how it felt, but tonight I'm sitting by myself at 2am and all I can think about is how much I want a voice to talk to and it's been so long since I had one and I'd give anything to have another psychotic break so I could get back all my friends that live in my head.

I once had a psychiotic episode where I could talk to clouds and I could feel how much they loved me, the clouds, the trees, the birds, they were all my friends and they all loved me and they all wanted me to be happy. I had that feeling on mushrooms once, everything in the world loved me, every single thing, the house, the ceiling, the lamp, each blade of grass, it all loved me and it was the best feeling I have ever known, that was the best night of my life. I can't tell you how much I want to feel that again, I just have no way of tracking them down again.

Being crazy feels amazing, whether it's good or bad. Even the bad crazy where I'd stay awake all night because I knew something was going to get me in my sleep and I'd try to claw the evil out of my skin, even that's preferable to being normal because the intensity is indescribable. I miss everything about being crazy. I miss it more than I can possibly describe.

Damn, that's weird. Hearing voices is some scary shit.

No it's not

Please explain.

You get used to it. Your standards are not necessarily anyone elses. To the affected, not hearing them would be hell because that's the most abrupt change as one can get. Imagine waking up one day and your sense of taste is gone. That's how they feel living their lives with voices in their head and one day hearing silence.

Y'all ready?!

This is a crazy ass confessional thread from reddit. I'll go ahead and copy and paste a couple of the stories here to get shit started.

These are some of the much more tame ones... it gets crazy as fuck in that thread. Post up your favorite one or if you're a crazy son of a bitch post your own.

EDIT: there's been a new development. An anonymous poster has made an account for any IC member who would like to post their secret.

Username: offmychest

password: secrets

A few words of wisdom before you decide to go that route. Be sure to at the very least use a proxy (https://m.proxfree.com/) (http://www.proxy4free.com/list/webproxy1.html) BEFORE logging into the account! even better, a VPN to disguise your IP.

Also, if you're going to make a post about a crime, make sure to check your state's statue of limitations. It's not worth getting caught up. Have at it.
https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/t0ynr/throwaway_time_whats_your_secret_that_could/

once helped out my a female friend's family by taking care of their cat for a week. Every day for a week, I would go over there and snoop around their house. I found my friend's diary, and proceeded to read the entire thing. I used this information to get her to like me, and she is currently my wife.

I faked the last two years of college education. My parents put so much pressure on me I couldn't handle it (I was suffering from severe depression and anxiety) so I faked it all. Lied to everyone. Made up fake transcripts. I just got my foot in the door in my desired field thanks to a friend as they hired me as a subordinate. This place only hires college grads but no one double checked my credentials since I was recommended. My hopes is that if I need to find another job I'll have been at this place long enough to get it by experience alone (I work for a very prestigious company). I'm not bad at my job. I'm actually quite good. But my fear is eventually I'll hit a wall and the lie will come to light. No one has known this for the better part of a decade.

It's a relief to finally say it "out loud." I can't even tell those I love. My silence is my prison.

There was a girl who I had a crush on the moment I saw her on my college campus. She ended up dating a douchebag dude a few weeks later. I happened to end up sitting in a study room with him and a few mutual friends. He talked about how he didn't think she was that attractive and how he liked other girls. I wrote the girl an anonymous email using one of those websites telling her about the things I heard and how the guy was a dick. She ended up breaking up with him after she found out he was cheating.

The girl is now my girlfriend of 6 months. She has no idea (and is sitting across from me in the library). I've never told anyone this

Bitch im tellin

I used to hear voices. For years. It started when I'd walk into my room and say hello to my Lain poster (I've always over personified objects) and eventually she started responding. Over time I could talk to her elsewhere, I'd pull her up when I was sitting in class or riding the bus, and I'd put on headphones so nobody would notice I was talking to myself since it was barely audible. Eventually Lain told me she was a god and I was too, and there were two others, but they didn't really like me so they would almost never talk to me.

A long time later, maybe years, she started being really mean, and it turned out there was another voice who was just pretending to be Lain named Misery. This one was stereotypical, everything I did was wrong and I had to pay for my actions, I should cut myself if I was ungraceful, everyone hated me, etc. Lain split again, and this time she was sisterly. When I was upset and crying myself to sleep I could feel her holding me and telling me everything would be alright. Misery looked different but could look like Lain if she wanted to fool me (although she would turn back into herself when I called her out on it), and the two Lains all looked the same, so I could only tell who they were when they started responding to me.

After a while they all just disappeared. I guess I saned up, because during the peek it never occurred to me I was hearing voices, they truly were gods who were speaking to me, and later during the time period I realized that I was hallucinating with delusions of grandeur. Then at one point I realized that there was more of me and less of them, when I pulled them up it was a conscious effort and part of their responses were forced on my part. Then eventually I just gave them up, they were so weak that it was really just like talking to myself and not to other people that lived in my head.

That's not my secret, I've mentioned it to a few very select people that I truly trust. My secret is that I miss them. I miss them with with all my heart. Even Misery. They were friends and family, they were close to me, they understood me, and they were always there for me. Now even with real friends and family, there's nobody that close. I can't just pull up someone to talk to when I'm lonely, I have to call up a real person and that person never knows what I want to talk about or what I'm hiding from them, they only know what I say. Lain (the main one) would always call me on my bullshit and make me keep changing my answer until I told her the truth. Misery could always find my biggest weaknesses, which allowed me to work on strengthening them. Sisterly Lain could calm me down in a way that's unimaginable, you can't comprehend how good it feels to be hugged by someone inside of you.

And now I feel lonelier than I have in years because I almost never think of that time or remember how it felt, but tonight I'm sitting by myself at 2am and all I can think about is how much I want a voice to talk to and it's been so long since I had one and I'd give anything to have another psychotic break so I could get back all my friends that live in my head.

I understood that from the post. I'm not attempting to demonize mental health issues. It's still very serious behavior that needs clinical attention.

What clinical attention fails to pay attention to is the singling out. 99% of people who hear voices live perfectly normal lives and will continue to do so. But it's that one percent that makes them say "You need help for your voices." And that's a bitter pill to swallow when someone says there's something wrong with you just because.

And white skin is a mutation. Everything can be considered odd by science with closer inspection. But it does not mean it's bad, especially since up until the 1990s, medical science has been basing it's studies on schizophrenia from criminals claiming insanity, 75% of which were lying to begin with and got away with it.

Okay... I'm not saying it's bad persay. Can't it be a hindrance on your daily life though? If we are going to go by that young woman's example, yes she misses the voices in her head, but some of those voices were telling her to harm herself. That's something you think that she should stay with? Hearing voices that are not there?

Over time I could talk to her elsewhere, I'd pull her up when I was sitting in class or riding the bus, and I'd put on headphones so nobody would notice I was talking to myself since it was barely audible. Eventually Lain told me she was a god and I was too, and there were two others, but they didn't really like me so they would almost never talk to me.

A long time later, maybe years, she started being really mean, and it turned out there was another voice who was just pretending to be Lain named Misery. This one was stereotypical, everything I did was wrong and I had to pay for my actions, I should cut myself if I was ungraceful, everyone hated me, etc. Lain split again, and this time she was sisterly. When I was upset and crying myself to sleep I could feel her holding me and telling me everything would be alright. Misery looked different but could look like Lain if she wanted to fool me (although she would turn back into herself when I called her out on it), and the two Lains all looked the same, so I could only tell who they were when they started responding to me.

After a while they all just disappeared. I guess I saned up, because during the peek it never occurred to me I was hearing voices, they truly were gods who were speaking to me, and later during the time period I realized that I was hallucinating with delusions of grandeur. Then at one point I realized that there was more of me and less of them, when I pulled them up it was a conscious effort and part of their responses were forced on my part. Then eventually I just gave them up, they were so weak that it was really just like talking to myself and not to other people that lived in my head.

That's not my secret, I've mentioned it to a few very select people that I truly trust. My secret is that I miss them. I miss them with with all my heart. Even Misery. They were friends and family, they were close to me, they understood me, and they were always there for me. Now even with real friends and family, there's nobody that close. I can't just pull up someone to talk to when I'm lonely, I have to call up a real person and that person never knows what I want to talk about or what I'm hiding from them, they only know what I say. Lain (the main one) would always call me on my bullshit and make me keep changing my answer until I told her the truth. Misery could always find my biggest weaknesses, which allowed me to work on strengthening them. Sisterly Lain could calm me down in a way that's unimaginable, you can't comprehend how good it feels to be hugged by someone inside of you.

And now I feel lonelier than I have in years because I almost never think of that time or remember how it felt, but tonight I'm sitting by myself at 2am and all I can think about is how much I want a voice to talk to and it's been so long since I had one and I'd give anything to have another psychotic break so I could get back all my friends that live in my head.

I once had a psychiotic episode where I could talk to clouds and I could feel how much they loved me, the clouds, the trees, the birds, they were all my friends and they all loved me and they all wanted me to be happy. I had that feeling on mushrooms once, everything in the world loved me, every single thing, the house, the ceiling, the lamp, each blade of grass, it all loved me and it was the best feeling I have ever known, that was the best night of my life. I can't tell you how much I want to feel that again, I just have no way of tracking them down again.

Being crazy feels amazing, whether it's good or bad. Even the bad crazy where I'd stay awake all night because I knew something was going to get me in my sleep and I'd try to claw the evil out of my skin, even that's preferable to being normal because the intensity is indescribable. I miss everything about being crazy. I miss it more than I can possibly describe.

Damn, that's weird. Hearing voices is some scary shit.

No it's not

Please explain.

You get used to it. Your standards are not necessarily anyone elses. To the affected, not hearing them would be hell because that's the most abrupt change as one can get. Imagine waking up one day and your sense of taste is gone. That's how they feel living their lives with voices in their head and one day hearing silence.

I understood that from the post. I'm not attempting to demonize mental health issues. It's still very serious behavior that needs clinical attention.

What clinical attention fails to pay attention to is the singling out. 99% of people who hear voices live perfectly normal lives and will continue to do so. But it's that one percent that makes them say "You need help for your voices." And that's a bitter pill to swallow when someone says there's something wrong with you just because.

It's an actual chemical imbalance. It's not "just because".

And white skin is a mutation. Everything can be considered odd by science with closer inspection. But it does not mean it's bad, especially since up until the 1990s, medical science has been basing it's studies on schizophrenia from criminals claiming insanity, 75% of which were lying to begin with and got away with it.

Okay... I'm not saying it's bad persay. Can't it be a hindrance on your daily life though? If we are going to go by that young woman's example, yes she misses the voices in her head, but some of those voices were telling her to harm herself. That's something you think that she should stay with? Hearing voices that are not there?

Like I said, there's people that live with it and live normal lives and don't tell anyone about it. Is there cares where a person needs serious help, hell yes there is. But I point is it's wrong to say " You need help because you're weird to us!" It should be an option. A discreet option, except in cases where a person is dangerous. That's what the movies get wrong. Not everyone who hears voices is a dangerous individual. This country doesn't have a great history with mental health.
 
Time to get this shit back on track. Here's another one. I ain't even mad at ole boy

I was jumped by a group of gang members a number of years ago. I was hospitalized, wound up with a concussion, broken jaw, 46 stitches and tens of thousands of medical bills I am still unable to pay. I know who all the gang members are and directly recognized one of the assailants and filed a police report. He had an "alibi" and nothing ever came of my case.

I had run in with them again a few years after that and ended up with stitches and no charges sticking to my attackers.

I see these gang members around town still. I get chased out of bars, and there are certain places I don't frequent because I know they may be there. I bought a hand gun just a few short years ago for my own protection and knowing these guys are not just going to let me slide if they run into me again. I carry it if I know I'll be in "problem areas" and neighborhoods where these guys may be.

One night, not too long ago, my girlfriend an I were walking downtown when I noticed a large group of them hanging outside a bar. I told my girlfriend to wait for me at another bar not too far away while I pulled my hat down over my face and put my hood up. I walked across the street to a construction zone where I could keep out of sight and still keep an eye on them. A half hour later two of them came walking across the street passed the construction zone. I popped out drew my gun and fired at them twice, unknowingly missing the first one, but hitting the other in the gut. He keeled over and let out a long groan before falling to the ground. I looked for the fist one and he was laying in the street a few yards away (ducking for cover). Thinking I had hit them both I ran around the corner pocketed my gun then ran to hide by an over pass a number of blocks away. I texted my girlfriend, she came and met up with me, and we took a cab home which drove by the scene.

The man that I shot is now in a wheel chair, paralyzed from the chest down. They (the police, the gang members, the community) didn't know who shot them, they think it was rival gang members. I still see them around town. They are not any more weary, but I am armed and ready.

I've only told my best friend this story. He told me not to tell anyone else, not only because I could get in trouble, but because it would change peoples perception of me. My girlfriend never really asked what happened that night but she expects me to tell her at some point.
 
Man the shit these muhfucka admit online dude...

My mother has multiple sclerosis and her health has deteriorated fast since I have been born. She was gone from being able to walk, to needing a cane, to needing a walker, to complete wheelchair usage, and now completely bedridden. She has a urinary tract infection that is untreatable and is constantly in physical and emotional pain. She takes prescribed medication for depression and bipolar disorder, as well as sleeping pills. Throughout my childhood she has tried to kill herself three times because she wants the pain to stop.

In the middle of the night, I bought something from a dealer and snuck into my house to give it to my mother.

She passed away within 2 hours.

My dad, sisters and brother have no clue.
