ITS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND INFO., ON THIS? tHIS IS VERY REAL, RIGHT? MY GIRL FRIEND HAS THIS! WE ARE NOT GAY, WE LIVE A HETEROSEXUOL LIFE- NO SHE DOESNT TRY AN DRESS/ACT LIKE A MAN--I HAVE SEEN IT AND ITS SO MUCH DEEPER THAN THAT! MY HEART ACHES 4 HER (IF ONLY U OR ANYONE COULD SEE HER PAIN BUT ME AN HER HANDLE HER HARD TIMES, BUT IS THERE HELP? Basically, she says i was put in the "wrong box". Her behavior, personality, thoughts, actions are that which u would perceive from a male. it s eerie, how much everything about her is male. Is this a disorder, possibly from defective chromosomes? Or genetic disorder---(if indeed there r defective crhosomes. Is this considered mental illness?

I sure appreciate your support, Mike. When I came across your website on the net it was an eureka moment for me. I used to think that my type of insanity was unique to me, but you have compiled all of this evidence of a common thread.

Dear JM,

I'm a neighbor up here in [deleted], and I recently purchased and read your book. Great! Congratulations, you've distilled the wisdom and experience often inadvertent) of many sources to make your case, and you've made it.

What a long-term project! You have a lot of heart to have conceived and produced this book. The book will do it's work but, knowing the embedded nature and resistance to change of the "healing arts", it will probably take some while for your truths to become manifest in the day-to-day treatment of schizoids. And that's a shame.

I'm [an executive of a music company], I'm in a different field than you the researcher and writer, but, I see examples of the bi-polar sexuality all the time in my business; creative artists are often the most damaged humans, especially with respect to those internal splits you illuminate. You would appreciate my experience in that area, just from the musically creative front, I could give you another chapter's worth of input!

Sometime I'd like to chat with you on the phone or over a drink here in [deleted] or [deleted]. If you like I can be reached at [deleted] or send me your number and I'll give you a shout when I get back from taking my wife and kids back [deleted] this week. My boys are uncircumcised, you and I are in agreement in more than one area.

Thanks for writing the book, Best,

HELLO, I HAVE A 51 YEAR OLD SCHIZOPHRENIC SISTER, PRIOR TO HER BEING DIAGNOSED, AND SINCE, SHE THINKS SHE IS A LESBIAN, ALTHOUGH WHENEVER A REALLY HANDSOME GUY COMES ALONG, (LIKE A MOVIE STAR) SHE GOES GA-GA. IS IT HER WAY OF COPING WITH LONELINESS, AS SHE HAS NO FRIENDS, OR CAN IT BE TRUE?
