You're disgusting and you're a troll.

ghostgurl, you took an antidepressant once? You need to take it at least six weeks to see if it will do any good because that is how long it takes for new brain cells to come online and to get past the increased suicidal ideation that occurs in the first few weeks. If one doesn't work, the next one might.
Also, hard sweaty exercise will help. You could become a volunteer helping deliver cords of firewood to poor people. Help build a habitat for humanity house. Restore trails in national parks. Pull English ivy out of local parks.


By once I meant I was prescribed it once. I did take it for about a year or so before quitting.

Yeah, I know I need to distract myself with things. When I'm distracted the thoughts don't come up as much. It's when I'm left alone and not doing anything that things can become scary.

You're some guy who goes around blurting out meaningless sentences that in no way contribute to any discussion whatsoever.

Me? I do actually believe that it is natural for men to be drawn to young girls.

You're incorrect. Pedophilia is not normal. If you're attracted to children, you should really seek therapy.

Go read some studies before you flaunt your ignorance again.

ghostgurl, is there any form of exercise that you don't mind doing, even if it's not sport as such? Going for a walk, that kind of thing? Exercise is good for relieving stress. If there's no sport you enjoy, you could go buy groceries on foot, or do push-ups in your room, etc.

Even if it were 'natural', that doesn't make it right - rape, murder and theft happen in nature all the time.

Attraction of an older male to a younger female is normal, but pedophilia is not. You often cannot help the way you feel, but I found your elementary school comment, regardless of whether you were joking or not, abhorrent.

I apologize. I didn't mean to derail the topic with my little crusade. Also, my comments were not directed at you; you acknowledged that your particular feelings were not right and you presented options to deal with it. I don't think it's any sign of weakness to seek therapy, as a matter of fact I am considering it myself for my anxiety problems.
