Is being social hard for everyone, or at least some of the time? I find myself becoming more aware of my behavior around my family I feel I have nothing in common with them and draw inside myself and close off people. For example it's my brothers birthday and I want to just go live in my room.

No, being social is not hard for everyone. It is hard for some people and easy for others. Also it can depend on the mood of an individual person.

I can feel like that or I can feel like I can't get enough communication.

clinte...

this might not be helpfull.....full of help?

absurd even...nutso!

but ...hmmm

maybe your brother wants to go hide in his room....even more than you do

if I was your brother I would have done drunk burnouts on the front lawn and got in a serious cop chase away from my home just so I would not make anyone at home feel responsible for sayin' some dumb happy birthday...

and I love my family...families....dearly

just crap at showing it..

buckle up

Yeah I just find that dealing with family can be difficult. Especially when you feel like nothing.

we got alot in common Clinte...

you just have a better way of describing it!

for you..."nothing is nothing"

now thats really something!

I care about everyone in my family....maybe too much...

whatever it is I'm ILL equipped for any of it

I do love them.

there is something wrong with me

reckon I'm now in the freefall Clinte.....

gonna fall as far as I can....it's the only way...

then pull that reserve chute....crash....get tangled up in trees I don't care?!

it was never my freaking idea to get airborne in the first place...

but thats what feelings do man!

they give us wings when we got no feathers....

I hope you will be ok...but I gotta sort myself out now...

nite buddy!

I love socialising. Since my bipolar started gettin worse, I havnt been able to socialise as I'm moved around and sent in hospitals

Now whenever I do talk to people my age, I get super excited and hyper and talk fast like a golden retriever and they think I'm weird.

But everyone loves setso!

It depends upon my mood.
Sometimes I isolate but then realize what I really needed was to socialize.
I usually feel better when I'm social but then again sometimes it drains me to be around people.
