I think I am a masochist. Although, I didn't like it when my mom threw a box of toys on me and my infant son while I was nursing him and etc. Mental health workers came into my house and sexually abused me and I didn't like that. Also, they mentally abused me and I didn't like that. They yelled at me and did not permit me to sleep, but I didn't like that. So I was wondering if I would be a masochist if I didn't like this stuff?

I guess I don't understand what masochism is.

Simply put, a masochist finds pleasure in suffering. Doesn't sound like that fits the bill for you.
Thanks for this!

I like to suffer. I just dislike people stating they are the CIA and putting images in my head of people suffering. Or, taking my son away from me. Or, keeping me awake for night's on end by yelling at me.

I don't think a masochist differentiates between types of suffering.

Wouldn't they submit to certain types of suffering and dislike other types?

If they abuse you the way you describe I suggest you fill out police report regardless if you like it or not

Are you in serious treatment? I'm not trying to be snarky or anything, rather your posts are quite concerning.

You would be a masochist if you LIKED those things. Sometimes I think I'm a masochist for staying in therapy...lol.

Psychiatry. a person who has masochism, the condition in which sexual or other gratification depends on one's suffering physical pain or humiliation.
2.
a person who is gratified by pain, degradation, etc., that is self-imposed or imposed by others.
3.
a person who finds pleasure in self-denial, submissiveness, etc.
This is a dictionary definition.
Thanks for this!

[QUOTE=AllHeart;4792493]I gotta ask....

Maybe I don't have that. Maybe I just like to suffer to soothe myself. I don't know. I honestly thought I was a masochist because of what it is defined as. Maybe I don't have it. That is why I was asking the question. After a while of being abused, I began to enjoy it.
