I use to be very social before I became ill. Since I started showing symptoms I became withdrawn. Sz.com forum helped me to relate but I do not think my social skills have improved much. My sister said that my social functioning is up and down. Some days I am more social whilst other days I am totally withdrawn.

Probably, but I’m still terrible. People like to talk so damn often. I can’t construct enough sentences and I just don’t like long conversations. And then I end up envying them hard for how much they enjoy themselves. I’m always just the goofy quiet guy…

magic words. all dudes start ranting!

lol lol just kidding.

it’s cool that you talk on dating sites better. I couldn’t get anyone to talk to me, so I stopped trying.

I’m okay being single. MI affects my ability to find a partner. better for me to dream for now

if I want to test social skills, a dating site would be the last place I’d go.

I’d just try to strike a conversation with some dude outside…

This forum has helped me a lot socially. I no longer believe people will hate me as soon as I open my mouth. It made me much braver about meeting new people.

Yeah, most certainly. I think a lot of the regulars here have pumped out pages and pages of text.

There is always feedback, and sometimes that feedback is directly critical of writing style or sentence meaning.

Beyond that, the idle chit chat of getting to know someone has played out dozens of times for me on here.

Yep… pretty crucial learning experience on a fair testing ground.

A schizo should emphasize socialization. Most Sz really need to establish a more positive connection to humanity. It brings peace atop our latent trust issues.
