Dear Nurse Ansalong:
I don't fit in at all in school. I mean, I have a few friends and all, but I don't really like being around other people and they're pretty much the only ones who'll talk to me. I don't mind being an outcast. In fact, I'd rather if I had no friends at all. But I've had somebody tell me that she doesn't like the darker side of me. because she tells me everything and I could probably blackmail her for all eternity with the secrets I know about her, but I never tell her anything. And I mean NEVER. The worst thing I've ever told any of my friends is that I think Frank is really hot. Is there something wrong with me? Is it a bad thing to be this anti-social? I just wanna know if I'm some complete physcopath...

Janet, for a time in high school, I was just like you. I spent a lot of my early H.S. years by myself, and I was okay with it. Also, I think that you'd find a lot of people in the RHPS community who feel exactly the same way or had the same experiences as you do. For some people in this world, they don't like to make a lot of friends, but would much rather have a small group that they can really count on to be there for themselves. About the mention of your "Dark Side"... We have our "Light" and "Dark" personalities inside of us all. Depending on our mood at the time, one or the other personalities will be strongest. This friend of yours might have seen you when your darker side was coming through for whatever reason. To her, she might also look at the comments that you've made along with your actions as something that's darker than what she's used to. Unless your doing things to hurt yourself or others, it doesn't sound like your psychotic. You're just not someone who wants to be friends with every single person on the planet....
