Help me diagnose me plz. I was raised in a very power and money home. Thats all i have ever known. My father raised me telling me I was a princess and has always lavished his love on me. BUT...when I know someone is mad at me I delight in making them think they have some edge over me or some damning evidence and then watching them run to put me on trial. I get this thrill out of watching their joy at " busting me " . Its like a power thing I think ot cat and mouse. Then I get this kick out of shooting their stuff down they are using on me. Like I know that certain pple stalk me on the Net and everytime i put a question up they will be there to mock me. So I purposefully put stuff on the Net that will get them out and screaming. It feels like pulling a string on a puppet. Whats the psych term for this ? Im trying to change so plz be nice. Im not a biotch or nasty so thats not my problem. Please pray for change in my life about this ?

It means you are a liar. Could be bipolar, could be just immaturity combined with trauma and depression... both can lead to compulsive lying.
Glad to see you admit it, AnnieSashaPessa. Now you just need to admit to the lies you told first, rather than these lies you are telling now to cover the ones you told first.
Good luck with that.

One term for what you are doing is called 'eliciting behavior'. Depending on how deeply this problems goes you may also have a Personality Disorder. I can not tell from the brief information you have given here. You say that you want to change and ask for prayer. You need more than prayer. YOU are the one that has to make the decision to change and stop your behavior. Just asking someone else to pray for you isn't enough. And it will be very interesting to see how many people here fall for your current ploy, won't it? And the mouse goes on to play another day. If you really want to change, see a therapist.
PS. As you can see from these very good answers the folks on R&S are not as dumb as you think we are. We know your game kid. You have a choice as to how you will live the rest of your life. You can add to the love in the world or make others as miserable are you are. As I said above, see a therapist. Daddy can pay for it and you will love talking about how much your father is really a jerk. So go for it. You will have a happer life.

Life always throws us curves and leave scars and that is good
because it tempers us and builds strength and character. You
have some healing to do and sounds like you know it and at least are acknowledging you need. To learn any lesson in life you must know the other side intimately and that's why we have negatives to shows us the positives. Just keep on living and learning with an open mind and heart and all will unfold in
due course

It's what's called a personality disorder. It basically means that you are not well adjusted to society. It comes from the childhood you describe, and while you say you're not a b***, the actions you describe, as in the joy in shooting others down, is the very definition of what you claim not to be.
Basically, you need to grow up and learn to play nice. You need to realize that you aren't entitled to play with other people's feelings. People aren't your personal toys.

I understand what you are saying here that's all you have known, so are you saying you are a control freak?This may be so but you have control over your own actions and even though you grew up in a poweand money home does not mean that you have no control over yourselfIf you manage to find a way to try to control otherswhich is a lot harder that controling yourself, then surely you can find ways to control and discipline yourself also if you want toI grew up in a veryvicious and vindictive critical homebut this has not made me that way. I mean think about it you say you want people to be nice, should you not have that attitude to others too?I have seen nothing but arguing and bic=kering in my home most of my growing life, and I have tried with all my might to be dofferent, and I have been I am glad to be able to say, and i did it because I never wanted and still don't want to inflict the feelings and demeaning ways that I have seen and known on any other person to make them experience such things because I did not like to see or experience those things so I try not to do it to someone else either, this I have found helps me control my only knowledge of how treating people affects others, so I can say to you it is possible to keep out of a mold of what one grew up in, you can do it too it takes concentrated effort of course but it is not impossible if you want to do it, and if you keep in mind how it feels for the other person then it is very possible to control your actions. But I cannot do it for you, you are the only one who can control your actions I can pray for you but that is really something you have to do yourself you have to pray to God for help in controling yourself because he can help you, but he will not do so unless you show him that you seriously want to firstly by your praying to him to help you and then by acting in harmony with what you prayed forto show you are really seriousnot just by words!you say you're not nasty, yet what you are doing to people that you describe is that really not nasty?Ask yourself, would you consider that nasty or mean, if somebody was doing that to you?I do pray for you to get the strength to look at your actions honestly and to take courage to decide that you do really seriously want to change then pray to God for help in doing this with success.And also find the real happiness in your life May you be blessed with success by God and may he help you achieve a much better more fulfilling interesting life Warm Christian love to you V.S

I really doubt you are so mean to people. Maybe you are a good over pampered girl, and need to get down from the cloud where you have lived for so long, before you fall and the thud is heard worldwide.

I [not to be rude] think it's a like of endorphines combined with sadism. Also, a need for attention, because you are used to it at all times [regardless of if the new attention is good or bad.]

Sounds like some kind of Personality Disorder.

This would be attention-seeking behavior and is not healthy. Try using the power and money that daddy taught you to do something helpful to people.

You sound like the people on cruel intentions. The movie has a quaint name, don't you think? So in other words no I won't pray for you.
