Thanks for the explanation. So many of us have issues here, some we can relate to and others we can't. It easy to empathize with someone who suffers from an ailment but my OCD won't let me do that without understanding the impact to some degree.

Frequently people don't understand why I prefer to be alone even though I communicate to what they see as excess and without effort. What they don't understand is that it is truly an effort for me to talk to them face to face, and really frustrating when they don't grasp what I see as the obvious nuances and complications of a situation. This made me an very successful systems engineer and caused me to be in great demand no matter how much I rubbed people the wrong way.

That being said I understand that my lack of need for contact with others is not common and can be extremely difficult for people who have a desire to be in the company of others.

Hopefully you find enough to satisfy your needs on-line and at night on days when you can venture out.

And thanks again for helping me understand the impact that something like this has on your life.

You're welcome!

Due to this condition, I am reclusive due to all the triggers and fear of what others thought's/opinions will be along with them seeing me breakout and itch like I am some hardcore druggie. Also cause I am afraid of all the symptoms, I can admit that I am truly not afraid of death and at times I welcome it (not suicidal but according to certain society norms/protocols I will be labeled Suicidal). It's frustrating that some will override my limitations and completely ignore the fact that I can't do what they want/wish me to do no matter how many times I attempt to explain it. There is absolutely no logical/rational reasoning for me to be suicidal when my condition could/can kill me, I try to explain that to some and next you know, I am thrown in the psychward.

Brain farts, time to stop...lol.

Given @franciscan's recent comments about being a bit stressed by attractions and urges, I'm not sure this is comforting given your mermaid wiles... :D

Majority of those traveling is due to me seeking adventure and I was homeless cause I chose to be during those times (from 14-21 and I had very little to no income until I was 20 when I got ssi...12-19 I had some under the table jobs in which I used for shelter/food).

Yea now a days it's not good

From those adventures I have an unfortunate/fortunate knowledge/experience of how Human Trafficking works, these days borders are ever so slightly more difficult to cross and get to your destination alive and in one piece. I have experienced a section of society that others can't comprehend, the extremely dangerous section...pretty much the Black Market per say. I can say that I know what it's like being an illegal immigrant...sort of.

My bucket list started at an early stage and today, I feel satisfied of all those on my list that I have accomplished...some still need to be accomplished and others can't due to my limitations now.

:cool:

I've always said that it is best to understand our limitations and issues, recognize their actual impact on our lives, make adjustments and then move on with life. Sounds to me like you are on the right path.

I am still alive!

All the other medical conditions are severely exaggerating the cholinergic urticaria with acquired generalized hypohidrosis condition in which is threatening my life, I opt'd out of goin to the hospital since there is nothing that can be done. For roughly 3 or 4 days I was unable to eat food as well but had to passively force myself to eat and not eatin for that long is obviously not healthy and I have food poisoning, can't control that but there are consequences and not pretty so I won't go into details. I will state that I have gone a week without food but still consumed liquids but that was when I was homeless in an actual cave.

I am Medically FUBAR, rarity, oddity, and marvel...I am a rather strong human, I can't deny that.

Not trying/attempting to create a debate here but I am an Atheist and this image pretty much explains my reasoning but not entirely cause there's more to why I am an Atheist...I respect others Religiousness/Spirituality/Faith/the like however.

I still think House should do a show based on someone like me, I will gladly openly share all my medical records with the writers, producers, directors, and actors/actresses.
