Hi, my name is Matt. I'll try to be as brief as possible in describing my problem.
I'm friendly and mostly normal, but I walk lightly among others. My behavior is involuntarily twisted by others' presence. This makes it hard for me to form friendships and relationships. It's like whatever part of the brain that allows people to maintain a normal level of dominance among others is decayed in my own brain.
It's not a matter of feeling shy or anxiety. I feel normal, yet I behave abnormally.
It's hard to see a doctor or talk about this with anyone because it's not a disability. But I still want to find answers. Do these problems sound like symptoms of anything familiar? I know it's not Aspergers, because I have a good sense of humor and sensitivity to social situations.
