Im starting a new semester in university, so i have to take this course and you are supposed to make groups of 6 people, ive never worked in a group before. I already got the group, its me and 5 other people i dont know, but they all were friends with each other from before, i was like the only guy in class who didnt know anyone, so i had to be in this group, and its a nightmare, they talk between them all the time, and i just cant fit in. One of them told me to talk more, because i was too quiet, but i cant do that, i dont know how. I think it makes them really uncomfortable the fact that im too quiet, and its gonna make them even more as the time goes by, and they notice that im not talking enough, but i dont know what to do.
I just wanted to write it down, i dont know who else to talk about this, no one really understands me, im going desperate. I wont be able to deal with this for the next 5 months working with these people, i cant do it, we are supposed to get together today to work on a project, and im crying right now as i write, i just cant go there... I used to be in peace with myself, but since the semester started im scared everyday, i cant sleep thinking about the project and all the things i have to do in the course, including a presentacion. Its too much for me that i can handle, you can tell that my group feels really uncomfortable when im there, they probably hate me already, and everytime i see them its worse than the last time, i get even more nervous and quiet. If anyone has severe social anxiety and ever went through group work please help, i dont know what im going to do for the next 5 months.
