Do you fit in?

I don’t fit in anywhere. I’m a freak. I don’t belong in this world.

I don’t want friends. I don’t enjoy socializing. I dread it. I just want to be left alone.

I don’t want to do anything either. I enjoy nothing.

But I’d be slapped with court orders landing my ass in hospitals again if I don’t keep up this charade and fake fake fake so I appear a tiny bit normal. I’m so disgusted with faking normal I could literally rip my eyeballs out.

I can fit in where I need to professionally but it is draining and I have to recharge after. I can fit in much easier in places like AA or with other photographers where we have shared interests and it is less draining for me.

There’s really nothing i can say other than i relate and that I felt the same way at one time. It is one giant clusterfck, to be sure. Include self care in your daily, i hope you feel better soon.

I fit in but don’t at the same time. I fake being social but so do a lot of people, sz or not.

I feel I fit in at work to a degree but maybe all the friendliness I get from people is one big act on their part.

I fit in like a three piece suit at a Metal concert. I’m just awkward

Why try to just fit in when you were born to be amazing? :wink:

Sometimes yes, sometimes no, but that’s the same for everyone. I have no qualms with being able to be more myself in something settings than other settings

I can fit in and play the game but I don’t like it, I need to recharge with solitude after my interaction.

No, not fitting in, but think that is all in my mind. Not one of the normals though either.

I mostly am tired of not being the old me, before sz. Though age has brought me more patience, kindness and caring.

I can superficially fit in. I can e.g. interact with taxi drivers and people in shops and nobody would guess that I had schizophrenia.

But that’s about it.

People don’t want me to fit in and lie about me all the time, because of some stalker. I don’t really try.

Society doesn’t fit in with me. I have found a few throughout my life who do.

It depends on the people they want me to fit in with.
