Hello. I used to be Edmund.
In the past I've had difficulty in separating fact from fiction but - as those in the know will be able to identify from my new user name - I am under treatment now and rightly ashamed of my past behaviours.
If anyone's interested, my current dose of SNRI is 375mg of venlafaxine, once daily, and current diagnoses include:
- adjustment disorder with major depressive episode
- borderline personality disorder
- atypical Aspergers syndrome
For the record:
1. The rumour that I had "gazzed" anyone an image of my genitals is a lie (to quote Churchill, "A lie can be half way around the world before the truth has got its boots on").
2. I spent forty days in late 2009 as a guest of HMPS (and it's not recommended) as a long, drawn-out consequence of my having a breakdown which lead to my second marriage and subsequent divorce: if anyone wants more information let me know
3. I have been to the Arctic - both Svalbard and Greenland - and I have man-hauled (e.g., dragging a sledge) but did neither for charity: anyone who was encouraged to donate to charity by me in the past (~2007/2008) can be reassured that at no time did I personally benefit from this
4. My own company continues to operate although with me in the background and I continue to work: we have ceased to support military charities and now support Mind, a mental health charity. I now split my time between academic work and research and development of models (mathematical / statistical, rather than any other sort associated with Honda Accords').
5. I am not back at b3ta trying to be flirtatious or seeking to have "dates" with people. I am now a 40-year old male, with a golden retriever and my own home and have become quite cynical of people and paranoid: indeed, as per Groucho Marx, "I would never be a member of any club that would have me as a member".
If anyone is interested or wants to ask me any questions, you're welcome to gaz me: if you want to write a longer note to me than fits in a gaz, send me a gaz and I will send you the best email address for me.
You are welcome to draw your own conclusions from me and my future behaviours but - as I do when I'm bringing friends into my social circle - I'm less concerned about peoples pasts and more concerned with their futures: in the future things can be done differently to the past.
Thank you for reading this far, and I apologise for the embarrassment and the ridiculousness that I have been responsible for in the past.
Craig

1. Never charged with bigamy: the unfounded allegations lead to an apology from Avon and Somerset Police
2. I pleaded guilty to a common assault of **** *** despite the fact that his evidence was not compelling and was directly contradicted by evidence from the doctor who treated him: in the interests of closure I have not pursued a private prosecution against him

There are a few people on this board who are geniunely a bit freaked out by you. A couple have said they were scared you'd stalk them. Your past, the fact that you lived some kind of double life and lied your way through a few years of your life will do that to people.
You're in the wrong place if you want sympathy; all you'll get here is ridicule and judgement. I do strongly suggest you give up any idea you might have that you can re-integrate with this particular society, punished, cured or whatever.

I'm glad to hear that you're under treatment - I hope that works out for you. I can see why you're posting this - maybe you hope for some sense of closure and a possible reintegration into the b3ta community. However, you know very well that while we are very accepting of mentalists here - many b3tans are of the mentalist persuasion, in fact I'd go so far as to say most b3tans are more than slightly mentalist...anyway, I digress, we are accepting but the line in the ether-sand is drawn at big fat lies and creepiness.
You and I both know you've told more than your fair share of big fat ones and yes, you've done your penance for that in RL. But still, it will never sit right here because it will constantly be drawn to your attention and every new members' attention.
Every new female b3tan will be warned of your tendency towards creepiness - please don't try to deny this.
Above all you have been publicly humiliated in the national press - surely it's not good for your continuing improvements in mental health for you to subject yourself to further repeated humiliation which is sure to follow if you begin posting here again.
My advice - which I'm sure you won't take - is to go back to lurking. Enjoy the laughs here at a distance - don't make yourself the brunt of them.
Good luck.

You sent me a gaz which could only be construed as a "come-on" to someone that you may have perceived as vulnerable from a comment that I made.
I will cut you enough slack not to repeat the specific content of the gaz in case what you spoke about was true, but in view of your propensity to consider your personal history a blank canvas, I doubt if it was.
At that stage my profile wasn't gender-specific and as I'd only just returned to b3ta after a few months otherwise engaged, I strongly suspect that you took me to be female.
Ultimately, I'm not a judgemental person and your circumstances and history are of little concern to me. What IS of concern is that you clearly have - shall we say - predatory tendencies.
I don't know how you feel about my comments, or those raised above. If you feel like you're being ridden out of town on a metaphorical rail that wouldn't be inappropriate.

You've said why not, I reckon you should have a hard look at why and maybe integrate your conclusions into any therapy you are having for the borderline personality disorder (which a lot of people think is not curable with medication - it's kind of a "just a bit of a manipulative asshole" diagnosis from what I've understood). And your language suggests lies.. if you didn't gaz a pic of your cock, I'm guessing you gazzed someone's cock picture. It's fucking hilarious but very wrong at the same time.

Kinda banned myself from /offtopic after finding people don't like me (for different reasons to you, I hope) but love lurking here and /talk (more often /talk these days), where I just lack the wit to join in much.

you are so not "rightly ashamed of my past behaviours".
You say that and then just go on to say "see, I was telling the truth" whilst conveniently omitting many salient facts such as the documented bullshit you have come out with which seems to have had a negative impact on a few people's lives.
You are not an innocent victim. And whatever meds you are on, whatever diagnoses made, you are still very obviously far from seeing yourself as anything other than a misunderstood victim and unrecognised genius and humanitarian.
If you feel truly contrite about your past, less of the "I do this brilliant work and I support these charities" and more of the "I am a bigamist and have injured others whilst claiming to be a doctor which I am not". Preferably said to your therapist and yourself.
