I feel like I can't

Defend myself when people gang up on me on this site or anywhere else so I usually just shut down.

If you’re referring to the recent situation where a family moved in with you, what I saw was a lot of the regulars concerned that you were being taken advantage of. I don’t think that’s a bad thing?

I feel the same. But I do also think that there is something wrong with me.

No, I’m not talking about that thread. I feel everyone was very supportive in that thread. And I thank everyone.

What do you feel is wrong with you? @Speedy

It’s complicated. But I am highly sensitive as a person, and it made me in to a total failure. I shouldn’t have been nice when other people weren’t playing nice. I blame my sucky genes for this.

I wish there was some strength in me but there isn’t. It all ended with me being psychotic.

It’s being target for bullies and not being able to defend myself that bothers me because it really sucks the energy from me and makes me ruminate a lot.

I’m sorry @Speedy. I’m a little bit similar. When people start whaling on me verbally, I can’t seem to defend myself. So, I just go silent. Usually when I try to enlist authorities for help, they don’t help me. They take the side of the abusers.

It happens to me too.

Sometimes I feel the same as you @SkinnyMe

Some people here were very unfriendly or categorical to me, and I couldn’t say a normal sentence to defend myself.

I also as @Speedy would consider myself as a highly sensitive person. In real life I also very rarely take criticism or bad comments not personally.

Sometimes the slightest negativity makes me hide or become either angry or sad

Yeah @anon8411913 I remember a certain man on this site being kinda mean spirited to you a few weeks ago.
