Sorry for the whining! It is hard to keep it bottled up. Thanks for listening!
I feel you BleakGeek, I struggle with fitting, as well. I always knew something was wrong with me, something was broken in me, because I have never felt comfortable and confident in my own skin. My peers, professionally and socially, seem to live their lives with such ease, and I struggle with terrible anxiety and feelings of inferiority. When I worked as a teacher, I often felt alone and detached walking down the halls, at staff meetings, at department meetings. Church was just as bad as I felt like I was doing Christianity wrong. Even now, my family are the only ones I feel whole and comfortable with. I don't know if this is a bipolar thing, an anxiety thing, or a little of both. I just know that it has been a source of great loneliness, and frustration as most people don't understand why I feel this way. They look at my accomplishments and don't understand why I don't feel good enough.
