meeting people

My fiancée is a large guy but people are not scared of him. I know other large people. That doesn't seem to scare no one. I live in the area with many large people and it doesn't bother no one. We need more info ( I agree with nickname).

Are you in therapy? On Meds? Seeing a doctor? You need some treatment of your anxiety attacks are scaring people

Im in a ACT team and on injection. I really dont wanna talk about this on a forum, if you really want to know pm me.

I don't need to know. I just don't understand the nature of your post. You are asking for advice yet provide only snippets of information. We can't provide valid advice if you aren't explaining what exactly prevents you from meeting people. It a way to general for us to help with suggestions. We keep guessing but apparently our guesses are all wrong. First you are large then people scared you kill them. Confusing. If you have mental health providers then can they suggest how to meet people?

You don't have to go through deep details. Just general descriptions. Like "people are afraid of me because I am large" in itself doesn't make sense. You need to give a reason why they are afraid of you, not why you are large. And following with people question helps, but you seem to avoid the questions by providing irrelevant answers. You are the one who needs help and insights, so people won't just PM you to know more.

Nice to know people on this support forum don't care.

Sorry you feel that way.

I respectfully disagree with this point. I truly believe that these posters are taking time to sit, think, ask questions because they are compassionate and want to offer perspective and assistance. Granted sometimes insight might not apply or might not be what you want to hear, at the same time, strangers just took the time to respond.

I've had anxiety attacks at work before. Why not an ambulance over cops?

Ok just my two cents, with everything you have posted even after this post, this one I came back to comment on, but adding it all up (from what you've said) all we can do is jump to conclusions because of what you haven't said.
So my conclusion to this statement mixed with the others would be: if the school called the police on you for having an anxiety attack, you must have gotten violent or were so out of control and so big that you may have accidentally hurt someone when they were trying to help you. As of course usually students don't know what is actually happening and rumors start to spread. I'm thinking for it to be an actual fear they have, that it's had to have happened more than once. You have doubt within yourself therefore you automatically assume it's everybody. And also with those posts, I'm assuming that it is the way you carry yourself physically, if you say is because you are a big guy, then you either don't smile or you sneer. You probably stand with your arms crossed legs spread like you are tough. And people like that are hard to approach and be approached by. Because I have known many big guys and the way they carry themselves makes a big deal. Some you can tell are just big 🐻 while others just shine the aura of being fun, then there's the insecure ones, then there are the ones that look like bullies. Funny thing is not all of those descriptions are how those individuals are, its the way they carry themselves. Posture, and facial expressions. I have never even met you but these are assumptions that are made because you left out details. Important ones for us to be able to help you without jumping to all these conclusions. That's all anyone was trying to say. If we didn't care we would just ignore the post and not respond at all.

People do care about your well being but people cannot possibly know how to help you as you aren't sharing or asking relevant questions or answer our questions. How do we knew what is your exact issue?

I have two colleagues with anxiety attacks. No one calls police on them. And we actually work with kids. I have panic attack once and everyone was accommodating. I can't imagine police being called?

Ok, im alot less triggered now and since everyone seems to think of full of **** ill explain. I had a psychotic episode on campus where i thought i was a creative genius BEFORE THIS INCIDENT i slammed my head on a wall causing it to bleed infront of my professor. Cops were called then.

This time around i was working doing my part and i had an ANXIETY attack. Where i lost control of my breathing got lightheaded and then freaked out. While this was going on the student police came and escorted me and i began rambling out of my head about a girl that convicted me of harrassment. The police were called because the professors remembered what happened the first time around and didnt want it happening again.

Then i had to voluntarily commit myself because the cops said i was fine to go about my day and do my own thing because i wasnt a danger to myself or others. So i committed myself into a hospital where is spent a few days in the feetle position.

Sorry i didnt want to openly talk about this at the time. I would MUCH RATHER talk about it in pm where its a safer place.

Hide your identity, and talk freely here. It is safe if you conceal your identity and don't use your real picture, if you have concerns. I am sure people will try to help, and no one will judge you.

Photo doesnt matter my identity (trigger warning)

Technology is too advanced nothing is "safe" it just is perceived as safe.

I don't necessarily think providing us with these details was important to helping the OP with how to meet people.

If there was an incident on campus at your school, you can always try to meet others in a vicinity away from campus or the town your campus is in. Are you in a large city? A small one? Is it possible to drive to a nearby town and join a local group?

For example, meetup.com has a lot of groups and you can search by interest. A lot of people don't live in the vicinity of the group, but if members are willing they can meet at a different location and socialize. There are also community-center based groups or maybe through city hall that involve a wide diversity of people who join. Not just younger people or college students.

I do think having something in common, like an interest, is why people get together. Another thing to consider is brushing up on social skills by being observant during a conversation, paying attention to the flow of a conversation, and speaking appropriately. Even if you don't know the people you're talking to at a social group, gently easing yourself into a conversation increases the likelihood someone will want to socialize with you further.

im in a small city no car no license but there is a bus system. But i dont have much money. As for the meetup idea im going to make my own group and hope people show up.

Making your own group is s great idea. Also starting new school and meeting new people. I hope you are feeling better and taking care of yourself

Have you considered getting your license? Then saving up for a car? Limited mobility can be a huge damper to meeting people.
