The main character doesn’t randomly relive embarrassing memories from his past and blurt the word “fuck” outloud

Maladaptive daydreaming. Unironically an OCD stress response. Thinking about yourself explaining something in an ideal situation is extremely soothing and can alleviate feelings of anxiety over social situations.

But I haven't been in a social situation in years

Has the writer even met actual humans before?

Yeah but you're still a human clued in to society and interaction. The idea that not having social interactions insulates you from the anxiety of doing them is a cope. In fact, not having a real interaction in years probably makes it worse. Consciously or subconsciously, you're preparing for that next interaction.

Great Gaddafi maxxing bro you look just like him

I legitimately have Schizoid Personality Disorder. Thought it was autism for a long time.

Oh no, bros. Seven out of seven.

I do that but I say, "I wish I was dead."
Just out loud and to myself. I'll be washing up or something, remember something embarrassing and just say to no one, "I wish I was dead."

I do a similar thing but I usually think to myself "I deserve to die" instead.

I sometimes say "Dagger!" and pretend to stab myself

For me it's "I want to die" and "Please kill me kill me kill me kill me"

I do along with something much worse
Imagining your friends or family got taken hostage and the only way to save them is by playing the game or playing it in a specific way with all of them watching and cheering you on to succeed

I refuse to believe there's people who browse Any Forums, and this board specifically, that don't have a sex drive. Over half the posts are sexual in nature.

Literally me. I'm constantly daydreaming about explaining and/or reviewing my interests to people. I have to just tell myself, "Dude I've heard this shit before, I know"

Why not just get your groceries delivered? It's like $2 if you don't care what time of day they drop it off and free if you spend over a certain amount.

I noticed that I can change what I blurt out if I make an effort for long enough
I can even condense it to a somewhat faint
>Aaaaargh
That's easy enough to disguise in some "normal" noise when there's people in earshot
Unfortunately my latest version is
>I hate jews/niggers
I don't know why that happened, it's probably something to do with Any Forums
hilariously, if I'm in a really good mood I'll occasionally blurt out
>I love jews/niggers

You're looking at him, fella. Hello there. I never really understood it, never got into it, and now I'm too old to care.

A lot of posters here probably haven't lost their sex drive, but do have it warped into a really weird and inaccessible state. Too much weird cartoon porn and you forget how to be attracted to and normal around a normal woman.

>protagonist is talking to someone and can't stop thinking what it would be like if he punched them in the face for no reason, even if it's a person he likes

That’s just means half the people are horny, not everyone on here has a sex drive

I only ever say the one thing. "I wish I was dead" has become like a mantra to me.

>main character doesn't have almost agonizing dinners with his parents who he can see in their eyes that they, despite loving him, are disappointed with him even though they gave him a card at his 30th birthday dinner that said they were proud of him

Because you had a parent that was super strict and built that superego in you, but at the same time didn't raise you to reach for the stars.. Basically, that parent just didn't want you to embarrass them.

>that don't have a sex drive
i have a minimal sex drive because i'm compelled to masturbate once or twice a week, but it's not strong enough to compel me to try to hookup with a woman, let alone a forge relationship

I'm not sure but I get an overwhelming sensation of dread and panic and I have to autistically run away if I think I've been in one place too long and have been spotted

Okay this is one i definitely thought was something only i did

>8 years ago
I felt my heart rate spike thinking about an incident from 19 years ago just this morning.
