Can’t stand being around most people

I love :two_hearts: people!

Yet I can’t stand to be around them at social settings.

Today my boyfriend forsed me to go visit his friend and friends family.

I suffered.as I usually do.

I said I didn’t want to go but he talked me into it.

I usually always say no to dinners, get togethers etc

I love being with my boyfriend.

Loved being with my x.

Manager where I volunteer is great.

Woman I used to agist of adore chatting to …

So I can feel comfortable around SOME people.:open_mouth:

But for short time?

I can’t stand being around most people otherwise.

I go mute, tense and suffer.lol

Can get other “reactions “ too.

Can you stand to be around people?

Personally i always see the good in people and somehow understand why they are as they are. Thankfully i haven’t been beaten up so far. But they are genuinely nice people as well i support when i can. The best way i am going is to be nonjudgemental as good or bad people. These days i enjoy being by myself.

Well i’ve worked as a nurse for most of my adult life. Personally, i hate people. People are the worst…but it doesn’t stop me working my arse off to help them.

Do you feel like you cant communicate to people? You know you can, but you just get this feeling that you cant just make a conversation flow, at least not like other people. I get this horrible feeling like there is something blocking me from doing it. Ever since I have had the illness I have been torn between wanting to go out and socialize because it is something I enjoy and not being able to open up to people like I would like to.

When I’m nervous I can’t shut up and sometimes I have no idea what I’m saying and by the way the other person looks at me I’m certain they don’t understand either.

I’m the same as you. I love people but I just get so scared.
:frowning:
I feel so much negative feelings rushing through me and it affects my ability to be the normal me that I am :face_with_head_bandage:

I really hope to conquer this one day.

But although I visualise to conquer it I just dunno because I have some very destructive habits that pull me down :face_with_head_bandage:

I love most people but I feel uncomfortable and awkward around some of my own family even.

I can’t stand being around my sister yet I love her but go tense and mute and uncomfortable around her.

My social difficulties were worse when I was delusional and hearing voices etc but better now.

I don’t do crowds well at all. I avoid them. When they’re inflicted on me I use my mobile phone as a buffer. This occasionally causes friction with my wife who likes to go to crowded places.

Not only I can’t stand ppl but also ppl can’t stand me, even my parents sometimes. Most of the time I am alone in bed in my room. Anyways I only talk to my mother, father and brothers in real life.

My brothers told me you will never get a gf again because of your negative attitude. SZ made me annoying and annoyed by ppl. I wasn’t like that before my SZ. I had lots of friends and a gf.

Gotta be honest, it doesn’t help. Have you considered ways to become more positive? I use art in my own case. I find that finding something interesting or beautiful every day and sharing it with others lifts both them and myself up. I think we can all benefit from a more positive outlook no matter what health conditions we have.

Lately, I’ve been vacilating between liking people and hating them. I really don’t have a lot of hate in me though and most people are so cool at work that I enjoy interacting with them.

But tbh I often get flashes of hatred and bow my head and feel anger but I get over it quickly. I can honestly say I hate my neighbors and despise them because they’re opportunistic as*holes who pick up on weaknesses like doubts and being nice and not having confidence.

They don’t bug me in my apartment unless it’s important. I get an overwhelming feeling like they are trying to destroy me. I think their focus is on my past when I let people treat me bad and had zero confidence as a teenager. That’s how they see me and treat me. It doesn’t matter to them that I have done so much in my life. It makes them happy to zero in on my lack of confidence and uncertainty and doubts.

They just don’t care and I’m not sure what to do and I can’t fight everybody. They refuse to see anything but the negatives in me and are just mean as*holes who do their rotten stuff under the guise that I somehow deserve it and that they are doing nothing wrong.
