SpoonfulofBromide posted:I didn't loving say that. I said the first artist who is NOT a goon took my money. You and a lot of people seem to hate me because I'm a male and males are the loving king kong destroyers of the world or some poo poo. Guess what, I'm not a male, I suffer gender dysphoria because my instincts and sexuality are not that of a man. I have extreme maternal instincts for real life, innocent people. Not those who threaten me with defamation. I don't know what I am but to pigeon hole a person you don't even know irl is beyond sick. I love everyone and I'm having an episode that I can't even tell my parents about because it involves my gender. Okay great so just so anyone reading this is really really clear you never gave money to the goon artist like you originally said you did. Clearly you don't care about anyone else but when you accuse someone of stealing from you it can cause a harmful aftermath for them I don't hate you that would require much more emotional investment than some words on an internet forum warrant. I just don't want you to damage this woman's working reputation because you like to make up things for attention.

- Extreme reactions—including panic, depression, rage, or frantic actions—to abandonment, whether real or perceived - A pattern of intense and stormy relationships with family, friends, and loved ones, often veering from extreme closeness and love (idealization) to extreme dislike or anger (devaluation) - Distorted and unstable self-image or sense of self, which can result in sudden changes in feelings, opinions, values, or plans and goals for the future (such as school or career choices) - Impulsive and often dangerous behaviors, such as spending sprees, unsafe sex, substance abuse, reckless driving, and binge eating - Recurring suicidal behaviors or threats or self-harming behavior, such as cutting - Intense and highly changeable moods, with each episode lasting from a few hours to a few days - Chronic feelings of emptiness and/or boredom - Inappropriate, intense anger or problems controlling anger - Having stress-related paranoid thoughts or severe dissociative symptoms, such as feeling cut off from oneself, observing oneself from outside the body, or losing touch with reality. Seemingly mundane events may trigger symptoms. For example, people with BPD may feel angry and distressed over minor separations—such as vacations, business trips, or sudden changes of plans—from people to whom they feel close. Studies show that people with this disorder may see anger in an emotionally neutral face and have a stronger reaction to words with negative meanings than people who do not have the disorder. http://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/borderline-personality-disorder/index.shtml

SpoonfulofBromide posted:Are you serious? They gave me a few sketches out of a long list, doesn't that count as something though? They said if we did have a contract it would be void and they didn't give a reason for why it would be. Well yeah, they didn't provide what they agreed to and if they "voided" the contract they should have returned payment. I shouldn't have said you should chase it up though, because trying to reclaim $200 from some random weirdo somewhere on the internet would cost you way more than $200 in terms of time and sanity. Just stop rushing into things (thinking ahead to when you decide to chop your peepee off next week in particular), you're only 19.

Nobody knows why I'm upset, they're just endlessly saying "you're crazy go to therapy". Every time I hear that I get angrier and angrier because I am the complete opposite of what this lady is trying to manipulate me into behaving like. I'm tense and nervous and I can't relax. Like I said, this was a straight up gaslight to drive me into this. I worked legitimately hard explaining this comic and describing the characters to this person and all they do is poo poo on me after taunting me with an image of exactly what I was striving for the whole time. I feel tainted from pouring my heart out to these people and having them do this OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN. Seriously, you think I'm wasting my life being angrier about this? How about the people who waste their life tormenting me because I'm imperfect. These people are bullies who vilify my honest intentions and wind me up to this point with no where to go.

I said I wished the artist sued you because people like you ruin businesses. For what it's worth I take that back now, I hope she doesn't sue you. I do hope that you stop posting on the internet and go and get a lot of therapy because if you aren't currently drunk and on drugs something is not working right here.

More like "say you're gonna do something and then lie about it" reputation and don't forget "gaslight me to the point of insanity" reputation. I was banking on this thing working because I'm sick of wasting my time and money on artists who have this messiah complex because they're talented. I just wanted work done. That's what this all boils down to. Why do these people do this? Does this satisfy them? Does watching me post these anguished responses only to get sarcasm and threats of lawsuits entertain then to no end? I wanted to write a comic. I wanted to write a loving comic. I get treated like I'm writing Mein Kampf post 1945. Maybe I am Hitler reincarnated and this is my biography. Good job goons, you sure foiled my evil plan with your talented hostage negotiators/artists.

No one's trying to manipulate you, no one here's out to torment you, no one's suing you, I imagine no one's actually gaslighting you (or you don't know what gaslighting is), no one's purposely trying to wind you up. No one's calling you a freak. Your head problems are probably clouding what you're trying to say or preventing you from communicating clearly but we don't want you to suffer. The world is not out to get you. You still have the rest of your life ahead of you. See the shrink, actually do the therapy instead of blowing off the goals, eat the pills, get better.

You do realize that the vast majority of people don't base their actions on what reaction they get out of you, right? Probably this goon artist wasn't intentionally misleading you, but was trying to feel out the situation and be generous in considering doing work for you despite her reservations, and then you finally pushed her too far and she cut ties (justifiably). Similarly, the posters in this thread (mostly) aren't replying specifically to rile you up, but attempting to give actual advice. We don't magically know what does and does not upset you, not everyone views the world the same way you do. I don't think anyone in the thread started out intending to go out of their way to try to hurt you. Your constant incoherence, histrionics, and persecution complex sure are getting obnoxious, though, so I wouldn't be surprised if people start poking you just to see what happens. You desperately need therapy, because your thought patterns and reactions to normal inter-personal interactions are clearly harmful. Most people don't assume that everyone is attacking them, that everyone hates them automatically. You need therapy (at the very least) to teach you methods of dealing with the world that aren't just "Everyone hates me, this proves it, aaaaahhhhh!"

It's even worse when someone who can give me exactly what I want for money doesn't and holds it over my head when I work my butt off writing scripts and gag comics daily. I've written like 50 independent jokes in a weeks time, excited that I'd finally go somewhere, only to be deceived yet again. Oh and this too, these people get paid to own a franchise I worked my butt off writing up. I give them all of my ideas, characters, situations and brain matter and they throw it away because they're offended over some trivial little matter with it. Don't you think that's completely sick? Why should I spend so much time developing something and offering money for it, just to have it kicked to the curb and metaphorically sodomized.

The sick part is that you're having a meltdown because you think someone doesn't like your work and this just feeds into what appears to be some kind of persecution complex. You obviously have behavioral/thought problems. You should stop trying to justify yourself in this thread because all you're doing is making yourself angrier for the amusement of others. Seriously you are having some kind of episode at the present time. Is arguing on the internet a good thing to do right now, or a bad thing to do? What could you be doing right now that is better for your mental health?

I guess I was hoping for like a script or drafted comic or something. Barring all of the other advice, just find someone else to draw your thing. Be upfront about the content you expect them to illustrate; for most people it shouldn't matter, but if someone responding negatively to it hurts you this much, it's best to just get it out of the way early. Still though, see a therapist/psychiatrist. Seriously.
