Hello doctor,

I am a 37-year-old man. I feel something is wrong with me. I do not feel well. I always have feelings of sadness and fear, as if I am going to die. Sometimes I feel suicidal. I do not feel good about anything in life, and I have no friends. If I tell anyone this, they will not understand. What should I do?

Should a person who is interested in BDSM be concerned about health problems?

Hello doctor,

I am a 14-year-old male and I have been concerned about my interest in BDSM (bondage, dominance, submission, sadism, and masochism). After researching online, I have learned that BDSM is considered a normal and healthy sexual activity. I am only interested in bondage and not the other aspects of BDSM. However, during my research, I came across information about the BTK killer, who had similar interests in bondage, torture, and cross-dressing at a young age. This has made me worried about whether my preference for bondage indicates any potential similarities to BTK Killer. Can you provide any insights?

Kindly help.

Thank you.
