Is it normal i always get called a troll on my posts when they are true?

Whenever I post a serious question on IIN, I always get called a troll and insulted. Even though what I have confessed is true and I am not a troll, it makes me feel hurt because my problem is not taken seriously or makes me feel like I really AM a freak because nobody could possibly have that problem - so therefore, they are a troll.
Sure, I understand there are so many trolls that talk about incest and paedophilia all the time on this site, but my problems and questions are often more obscure, and I go into great detail to explain the problem and my feelings about it, it's not like I've just made it up. And yet, I get called a troll... Is it normal? Does this happen to anyone else? Does it annoy you?

    Sorry this happened to you, and sorry if I've called you a troll before. You're right there's just too many on this site to tell sometimes.
    I mostly go by language more than content. I accept that people might have serious yet very obscure problems; But when it's written like a bad fan fiction, using lots of flurishes and titillating expressions I assume it's a troll.
    But I'm sure I've also written serious comments on troll posts before.

    People are quick to dismiss something that seems weird to them.

    I can relate. It happens to those of us with eccentric lifestyles..

    It seems as if many can't begin to fathom a reality that doesn't conform to the uniform existence they wish to see.

    They immediately dismiss our polls

    I feel ya, people can't seem to distinguish between the truth and apparently being an asshole.

    It’s okay I was just called a troll even though I seriously am asking strangers about a invest subject because who the fuck can I go to to ask this weird question.

    Can you use spellcheck?
    What's paedophilia?
    That said, sometimes it is hard to tell.
    Some of are freaks.
    Some just like to fish for a reply.

    • For one I have a North Korean soldier fetish and am only attracted exclusively to East-Asian guys.
      and I have an imaginary friend (actually a couple) 2 of whom have been a boyfriend at some point. One is a North Korean soldier, one is South Korean and his brother and one is a Japanese guy. I write stories about them and I and draw pictures of them. I really wish they were real but obviously I'm just crazy -_-

        It's good that you're writing about all of this, but it's still not real, because it's imaginary.

            ... but like it or people will probably always think you're not all there when you talk about imaginary boyfriends.

              I'm not all there, because a part of me is still missing, and I am incomplete v.v that is why I created them, to fill a void that cannot be filled in real life :'(
