Definitely...people have always made fun of me because I'm quiet. Even my grandma has said alot of mean, cruel things about my quietness...saying I'm a loser who can't even carry on a conversation. And even alot of therapists & psychiatrists I've been to, I feel that they're making fun of me. Which is why I usually end up not going back to them. I've never found a psychiatrist or therapist who has been helpful at all, or who has cared about helping. Obviously nobody understands unless they have the exact same problem.

As far as the ten minute brain lag, I also feel like I'm just not processing what's going on around me, or maybe I'm just processing it slower than everyone else. So that sometimes I come across like I'm not too bright I don't know how to prevent it, sometimes what I'll do is just blurt things out, or talk quickly and hope nobody knows the difference. I think I'm hoping that if I talk fast before I can really think about it I'll bypass whatever part of my brain tries to analyze everything to death.
I like your quote blubs about not worrying about being offended, I've actually gotten much better at it over the years. The whole thing with my family just hurt my feelings, because they were so obvious about it, it made me feel like they didn't respect me. but this isn't the first time they did that so I don't know why I was surprised
