I’ve been told by some people in real life (mostly family) that I’m prickly, selfish and unpleasant. I try to be kind. I make mistakes. I haven’t met anyone who never makes mistakes. Today someone at work was rude to me and I only said hi and made a neutral comment. She looked me up and down and made a sarcastic comment. I find this world to be harsh. I have trust issues. I trust very few people. I have social anxiety and depression. I feel quite hurt by this person at work. Maybe yet again I’ll have to change jobs. Nobody there seems to be kind. When people insult me I’m supposed to just say nothing. I was taught to say nothing by family. I feel like insulting them back but then the situation would escalate. Or maybe I’m too sensitive. So I put up with being insulted by people with no empathy. This adds to my depression.
