Wallowing in your own disorders

from JoeUser Forums

Blue Dev wrote an excellent article a few weeks agothat I think got overlooked Link .

I have my own opinion about the kind of people his article discussed.

There are some people who are content to wallow in their disorders.  The seem to celebrate and even to rejoice in being nothing more than a skinful of various sicknesses and what used to be called pereversions. 

They have a justification for everything they do.  Nothing is ever their fault - everything that ever happens is either because they've been discriminated against or misunderstood because they're 'different', or because one of their varying personality flaws has led them into that circumstance.

They lay around in the filth of their own personaility, never wanting to do anything to make a difference to themselves because in their view, you are who are you and there's no point in trying to change that.  They scoff at people who do try to change themselves; they see it as folly and as self-betrayal. 

They make no apologies for who and what they are.  They see the rest of the world as the ones who need to apologize.....

...well, I refuse to.  I refuse to apologize for trying to be a better person today than I was yesterday.

And I refuse to let them stain me  and mine with their filth.

Nicely put, Dharma. Acknowledgement gives these people power, so I do my best to ignore them. Realistically speaking, they are their own worst enemies anyway.

Thanks for linking to Blue Dev's excellent article. I missed it somehow and it was definately worth the read.

I think for some of these people, they don't even realize they are sick, or perverted, or hateful, or whatever it is. In their mind they are the normal one. But I agree also that some do seem to reveal in it.

I agree...some people don't, and I don't have an issue so much with them as I do with those who DO see but who almost congratulate themselves in being that way.

I try to as well.....but when they come marching right up onto your doorstep (theoretically and literally) it's kind of hard to do sometimes!

Grrr this site needs fixed. I misspelled revel and it won't let me edit it. Ok, I admit it, I'm a little anal about my spelling.

Yes, I'm sure it is. I couldn't believe the malice of the person who anonymously attacked you in one of your recent blogs. It is obvious this person doesn't have too much of a life if they keep attacking you for yours. I'm sure karma will look after them.

Interestingly, your linking to my article brought someone more than willing to demonstrate the point of said article. Sad really.

Exactly. I hate stuff done behind the cowardly wall of "anonymous" I'll have to do an article on my real life victimization of that kind of thing sometime.
