hey matey. I’ve always been a talker. Sometimes I come unstuck in social situations but I’ve ever been the fool so I keep trying.

A good sense of humour helps. If you can poke fun at yourself then you find others will gravitate towards you…simple things…knowing peoples names. Knowing something about other people.

I think that helps your self esteem. Get amongst the normals and enjoy the little victories. You do well on this forum…you just need to have some faith and try small situations where you can be comfortable. Once you feel you belong then your self esteem will rise for sure…it’s not easy but for a bright spark like you it’s doable!

Any rand wisdom -
“The man of authentic self-confidence is the man who relies on the judgment of his own mind. Such a man is not malleable; he may be mistaken, he may be fooled in a given instance, but he is inflexible in regard to the absolutism of reality, i.e., in seeking and demanding truth . . .”

I had little self esteem till I read atlas shrugged a book by ayn rand that taught me that the world is understandable, with reason, life is the purpose you give it, and that great things can be done by individuals and their will. You don’t need to feel lost and hopeless, you have your mind to use and with that you can overcome the obstacles you face. Helps to have a positive approach and take baby steps every day towards your goals

Find something to do. This forum is great. You could also garden. Or cook/bake. You could clean. I watch a lot of TV.
