I've realized that I'm unable to like people. I don't know exactly why, but generally I'm just unable to see nice in people, and if I do I don't think its genuine, because I feel like everyone's laughing at me. I really only have 1 friend, but I don't even feel relaxed or comfortable around him. I think he laughs at me & slags me off to his other mates behind my back, because I know I sometimes come out with weird stuff, or come across nervous & jittery towards people, or once in a while I'll talk too much then beat myself up about it when no-one listens.
He's been seeing a lot of his other mates & girlfriend, one of his mates he used to be best mates with, & I was also good mates with, but I went round there the other day & had nothing to say because I haven;t seen him in so long. This other mate pissed off with my mate for about an hour leaving me in a flat on my own with his mum, neither of them cared, & I just think everyone sees me as a complete mug, like they can fob me off and f**k me around & I won't be bothered.
I wish I could just stay at home away from everyone, but when I'm alone for too long I get depressed & start going over all the embarassing things I've done or said in the past, or stuff I regret & start feeling really guilty about it, making me more depressed & sometimes quite sick.
im the same im very wary of people now... i think its the defence mechanism kicking in because we get mentally attacked by people so much im more comfortable going out on my own but i do have a couple of good friends but am never really at ease around them.Ienjoy my own company now and am getting more used to it.Good Luck
I hate it when people, even in the supermarket, feel uncomfortable around me. I don't know what message my facial expression conveys that scares them so much. But I really hate it when people don't feel at ease around me. As soon as that happens my anxiety becomes unbearable. Can anybody relate to this??

i don't know what message my face convey as well.i always seems unhappy to others because i'm not happy myself and it seems like i can't communicate very well.i don't know what to said sometimes when my friend phone me and i don't phone her back.it's always her that phone me.and i'm uncomfortable in public as well.it's like peoples i konw is watching me.
Today I spoke with a girl in the supermarket. I've known her since childhood. We went to school together when we were kids. We are both over 30 now I was very surprised to see her. She is such a friendly person, and also beautiful. I was uncomfortable, but managed to answer her questions, although with difficulty...
I don't even know why she came and spoke to me, since I was nervous as usual. Surprisingly, she told me that she also had psychological problems. Usually we think that very attractive people don't deal with such things, but apparently they are also human. She told me she is very sensitive/emotional and has difficulty dealing with life. I was very very surprised that someone like her could experience such issues to such an extent.

Good for you. Did you get her number or email or anything? Are the two of you going to talk to each other again?

Are you kidding me It is obvious that you don't know me. I'd rather die than ask a girl for her number or anything like that. You shouldn't underestimate my self-hatred, complete lack of confidence, extreme shyness and social phobia.

Well, it doesn't have to be for a date or anything. You could continue your conversation about your common problems. From your earlier posts, and this recent one, it sounds like she's dealing with some of the same issues as you. If anyone would understand, she would. So if nothing else, she might have some valuable insights.

Yes i can relate. I'm sure that people are uncomfortable with me because i get this serious look on my face and i know that they probably think i am really unfriendly.
Its tough I tend to find most people annoying in person, but then i wonder are they really that annoying or is it just my anxiety around them making them seem more annoying.
