I feel very low, and absolutely consumed with anger towards the world and other people in general. Have had a psych referral, but not overly confident due to the long waiting list and... |

| Although I 'know' logically that they aren't conscious beings, I still seem to see them as just as 'real' with feelings as I did when I was a child. This is exactly how I feel! It's not an exaggeration to say that I have more of a connection and sense of empathy with my plushies than I do with most... |

| Yes. Collections abound covering all sorts of different animals - bovids, cervids, suidae, pinnipeds, kitties, et al. I love to hold them, organise them, feel the soothing texture of their fur, and imitate their noises - it's a comfort thing. |

| I hate fashions and like to wear the same comfortable fabrics on a routine basis, so I don't dress up in day-to-day life. However, I really enjoy dressing up in formalwear - long dresses with boleros or shrugs. I also like to apply makeup on such occasions because I like the way it accentuates my fe... |

With my partner or a family member, I often end up in tears and having to do something to deal with my frustration - usually ripping paper or punchin... |
