Relationships

Relationships: romantic, friendship, family This is a big issues with me. I was just wondering how many people feel this way.

are they hard for you? Do you feel that you are misunderstood? Are you really sensitive so when issues do come up it affects you much more than them? Do you feel that your personal boundaries aren’t strong because of your illness?

I’m more confident than I used to be but still very shy. the anxiety and paranoia and trauma doesn’t help. Shyness is my biggest problem though.

I definitely feel like my boundaries are weak. I’m not good at putting myself in respect.

My confidence is low and I fear confrontation.

Relationships are hard for me to maintain, especially romantic ones. I just don’t have a big need for affection other than a hug.
I often feel misunderstood.

i think it’s hard to have good boundaries if you are the one more dependent on others. I bet a lot of people with any kind of illness feels that way.

mental illness is all about being misunderstood. invisible illnesses.

I don’t have friends that I get together with, etc. I have very little in common with most people. Sometimes I feel bad about that and sorry for myself , but there’s no changing it.
I’m lucky to have found my husband, but it’s been really difficult. Sometimes I think I’m ready to give up, and I think he’s felt the same, but we just keep trying and it has gotten better. Communication and honesty is the key.

Play it smart. Wait for the right one. Don’t do a lot of relationships. They are confusing and upsetting. It takes a while for your soul to heal after one. Wait, pray for the right one. I did and I got the woman of my dreams.

I didn’t like myself so I didn’t like other people.
