Talking to yourself =D

do you get social anxiety? why don't you get out?


personally.. over the past couple years i have built up quite the social anxiety.. thank god for walmart(bleh).. i can do grocery shopping at like 11pm or 1am.. and have little to no social interaction.. do most of my shopping online... i prefer getting gas late at night or mid day when everyone is at work... i don't dare go out to the bars.. i'll force myself here and there when i really wanna see a show..

 

Then it would make sense that he talks to squirrels ya!?!?!?


ya.

 

ya

 

That sounds pretty bad. I hope mine doesn't escalate to that. I love being around people (again because I like to watch the way they interact with things) on groups. One on one I do not like at all because it draws too much attention to myself . I have a very hard time making friends.

 

PS: i'm so glad they don't log and show hours members have been online since joining.. .. though sometimes it would be skewed.. cuz i'll leave the house and still have this page open

 

its not that bad all the time.. sometimes i really have no problem at all with social interaction.. and i am totally a people watcher.. humans are funny

 

i like 1 on 1 moar than groups...

especially if i don't know the group that well.

i like meeting people though. especially those of the male gender... i should do moar of that.

 

I am learning sign language so I sign to myself a lot...does that count?

 

yeah, i've actually gotten a lot better at talking to people lately. i used to be very shy and i wouldn't say a word if i was in a group of people that i didn't know very well. i could talk to people one on one but i would never start the conversation

now, i can start up a conversation easily. i can talk in a group pretty easily, too. all with people i've never met before in my life. it's something that you have to learn and get comfortable doing but once you do it's easy and makes all the difference in the world

edit: now that i think of it it was thanks to good ol' mary jane that helped me with that. i found out that i could talk to people so much easier when i was high beacause i wasn't shy. then i just kind of applied that to being sober

 

Yeah I'm better then I used to be. But once I have a job, and eventually my license back I'll be getting better about it.....I think.....

 

LOL if you put me in a group of people high you will not hear one single word from me.

from having the jobs that i do, making small talk is essential if you want to survive the 4 hour shift. i've become really good at asking the right questions to get/keep people talking. i don't ever really feel comfortable being the one that does all the talking because i always feel like people get bored with what i'm saying... so i just ask all the questions and do all the listening. it works quite well.

 

that's exactly how i do it, just ask questions

 

^ looks like we should never engage in conversation..

we'd just constantly be asking questions and never getting answers

 

haha

naw, i would love to have a conversation with you

 

Sometimes. But it's usually just "fuck" or another swear word.

 

Talk to myself all the damn time. Mumble under my breath to myself is more like it. Drives my Lady nuts. She asks me what I'm saying, and I can't tell her, because I don't pay any attention to myself. Hell, no one else pays any attention to what I'm saying, why should I?

 

i just talked to myself earlier today and thought about how i hadn't in a while.....and here comes along this thread,weird

 

I kan reed yer mindz

 

i kan s33 y3r nutz

 

This time of year I talk to myself constantly. I'm doing a play right now so anytime my brain is idle, I run lines, and look like a fucking nutzo mumbling my lines and gesturing to myself
