Yes, what helps me is to find ppl who share the same inerests and ideas as me. For example for me one is video games or technology.

I have great difficulty initiating F2F conversations with people.

I can talk to my one friend, my parents, my brother and his GF, and my mother-in-law. But with everyone else, I am just really awkward. I don’t know what to say or how to hold myself or how to act…

I’m uncomfortable around most people including my own family and my own father.

Thankfully their are some people I’m more comfortable with.(not many)

The only person I hang out with is my boyfriend and I’m comfortable with him.

I avoid people and socialising but on rare occasions I can enjoy being around people.

I love my boyfriend family.
I’m quiet around them but I like them and not too uncomfortable so far.

Think I’m more uncomfortable around my own family than I am around his.

Sometimes I go mute.

Fif first two times I was hospitalised was because I went mute.

I could not talk and couldn’t answer questions and was psychotic so they took mute me to hospital involuntary.

I feel majority people supress me to make themselves feel like they are so powerful and superior but a truly great person empowered others not supress them.

I’m worried because people at salvos supress me so I don’t know if I can endure that nor should I.

It’s not ok.

I don’t need to be dominated or suppressed.
That’s not ok.

I should be doted on and empowering etc.

Doted.yeah baby.

Yes— I can get by when exchanging pleasantries, but small talk can be excruciating.

IRL, I have immense trouble with identifying and expressing my feelings and opinions… Dunno, working on it.

It seems as though I am always the listener in conversations, and certain people have a habit of talking at me, not with me.

Much better at writing, I think.

Sometimes I do.

I really want to be there to brighten up my and people’s days by enjoying company with them but I’m so dumb

I guess there’s being silly but that requires a certain level of smartness too. Haha!

Im not to bad at talking to people. I do get very nervous though and keep things short and to the point. I used to be very outgoing but not so much anymore.
