I chose to call myself Mercury for a reason

Hey, everyone...

From the user info page I thought I'd announce my presence here as a psych student, but I'm not interested in you people as guinea pigs... I have a seriously unorthodox fetish for the "crazies"... schizofrenia, multiples, furries, gender dysphoria... the people who don't belong, who feel out of place in their own skin, who are too much for themselves.

I wish I could live a thousand different lives sometimes, be the virgin and the whore and the child and the adult, the man and the woman. Being bisexual definitely raised some questions in my mind about whether or not I really wanted this female body of mine.

Don't be offended when I say part of me is jealous. But I guess you'd understand about "parts"... wouldn't you?

EDIT: I don't fetishize any of you, I have a tendency to use words offhand, I don't think about any of you or your friends naked in the shower to get my rocks off, I'm young, I'm dumb, I talk a lot, I would never in a million years dare to compare any of you to furries, or try to pretend any of you are anything like me, because that would be damn insulting, etc.

There.

thanks for the warning, I'll try to explain

Ah, by calling you crazy? I have not met a sane person yet. But I'm relatively young, I suppose there's still hope. *shrugs* I thought I was being complimentary.

In case you haven't noticed... as soon as you really start to get to know anyone, they get completely insane? If you read my journal I think you'd find a few things that would make you think I'm kinda fucked up. Heh.
The more I read about all these supposed disorders of the mind, the more I wonder who's normal out there. The ratio of normal to "psycho" is getting amazingly out of whack here, and while some people are going to try and beat you down, I'd rather join you. So before anyone decides to get angry with me... take into consideration that I'm new at this, so don't be harsh. I realize I've got a lot to learn.

Hrmm, what else in that post could be insulting.. me saying I'm jealous? I know some/many of you might have gone through a lot of pain and trauma or abuse along to way to being who you are now. I would never try and make your struggles seem anything less. Part of the reason I'm jealous is because even though you live a different sort of life than I, as a whole many of you seem... content. At peace. Interested in yourself and your constantly changing selves. I envy you that. I am not happy.

I hope that clears some things up, if anyone wants to take a bite out of me still... well. I'm down with that. *wink wink nudge nudge*

I personally wasn't offended, but I figured some other people might be, so yeah. ^^;

Aside from the word "crazy," which is pretty commonplace for referring to absolutely all of society these days... the only thing I can think that might be insulting is your use of the term "parts," which may just be a personal thing for our group.

If I wanted to go further I'd say that, in your post, your comparison of the passing emotion of jealousy to a "part" of one of us is utterly insulting and degrading.

...Then again, I'm not insulted in the least, and find your post amusing if anything. So: Hi. ^^

P.S. LOL @ the bite comment. ^^ I'm adding you to our friends list, as you seem just nuts enough to be worthy.

Awesome, so many new friends. Really, sooooo many.

Mind boggling.

my mind hurts now.

*scratches head* Oh... okay. Thanks for clearing everything up. *blinks*

Yeah, I realize "parts" wasn't the best word to use in this instance, make it seems like everyone in your system is just a fragment, which insn't necessarily true. So I apologize. *bows*

Like I said, not really bothered, just informing. ^^
