There's something wrong with you - you know it, and you desperately need
help.

I heard something else in the last day or two that got me thinking.

In addition to all of his other problems, I think I know what one of his
largest problems is, that explain his behavior on the internet.

He is addicted to attention. Positive, negative; it makes no difference.
Attention is what he craves, and must have it, above anything else in his
life. Just like drugs, he will get it, one way or the other.

So there it is; another thing to add onto his list of problems. Addictive
personality disorder.

This one fits too well to not be true.

Maybe - maybe not that simple.
Attention craving, certainly, but addictive, not necessarily.
I bet he doesn't play the lottery obsessively, or the horses.
But I'll also bet he doesn't have an abundance of friends dropping in.
It's more related to an inability to establish intimacy - something that went
wrong in that department a long time ago - It will take a long time to get to
the bottom of it, and a long time to get back out, but it is possible to work
through it. . .
