I think I am going insane...help me!?!


Question: I think I am going insane...help me!.?
I really think I'm going insane. I had a severe online gambling problem for the past 4 years and I recently quit. Since 17 all I did was gamble, literally-no job, part time school. I have become really wierd and antisocial. I talk to myself a lot, make up situations where someone is talking to me and respond to them-to myself if that makes sense. I argue with myself. The only time I get out of the house, minus school, is to walk my dog, and this is usually done in the dead of the night when no one is around. No friends, girlfriend, and disturbingly no desire to have either. Don't have desire to do really anything...studying engineering to keep parents happy and doing pretty well too but not liking it. also, am very attractive and I stare at the mirror a lot and admire myself, girls do come to me but I usually scare them off with my wierdness as I do with the guys.

Uh, that is weird. Isn't that reclusive.? You need to get out more.Health Question & Answer

Seek mental help. If you know your are making up situations where someone is talking to you, that is not insanity. Daydreaming is what that is.. Someone who is schizophrenic does not know the people they are talking to or hearing voices from are not real. I would probably assume you are having withdrawal symptoms from quitting gambling. Gambling is an addiction, just like smoking, drugs, alcohol, etc. Staring at yourself in a mirror is called narcissism, find a different hobby. But it is apparent that you do need to talk to a therapist. Good luck.Health Question & Answer

The fact that girls come up to you in an engineering class is amazing. There are barely any girls in my class.

Secondly, you must be really good looking if you are attracting other guys.

Finish school and see what happens, that is what I'm doing.Health Question & Answer
