I don't know what to do I'm literally going out of my mind
I can so relate, especially "that's how it looks and that's how they act."

I always feel like I am being paranoid but then I think NO I'm not because I can tell they do think that!

When I go into chat I get past the hello's and then I freeze up.. I can't keep up with the conversation long enough to say a reply..The members on chat all seem nice.. I just get my anxiety up and end up just logging off..

Aimeesh, the problem with chat rooms is we cannot see other people's body language to know how they're reacting. Your comment,in a regular, situation probably would have been taken quite differently. Try not to be so hard on yourself. Remember you're a good person.
The fact you went into a chatroom in the first place shows a lot of courage.

i was just in the chat room and i told someone not to be rude and everyone told him not to worry about it, to be himself...... and i just totally felt HORRIBLE. I felt like such an annoying big thing bothering people and i just felt so stupid and knew that everyone wanted me out of the chat room.

i know it probably wasn't that big of a deal, really. but now i just feel so... ughhhh and i don't understand why i hate myself so much. And i worry other people hate me as much as i hate myself.

so. awkward.
hi,wanted to send you hugs, and dont feel bad about wanting to keep something polite!! you take care

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
