I can't get socially comfortable around anyone

@Bee

It's really comforting to hear that I'm not the only one who deals with these kinds of feelings, it can make me feel very disconnected from others so to hear that I'm not alone makes it a lil easier to deal with. Thanks so much for adding this, I really appreciate everything everyone has said so far and will definitely be taking it all into account

P.S: hehe I'm glad you like my name

I agree that it's comforting to know you're not alone in these feelings.

@sweetsonmymind Great job on sharing and kind of admitting to yourself that there is an issue. I feel quite the same in most social situations, and as you said, its beyond being shy or introverted. I find that if I just kind of copy what other people are saying but give it a slight twist then I don't have to think about it as much. Great responses from @Bee, @LeoTheLion, @lokifish, @Birdeye, and @ErinsAntics.

I’m just another teenager without much knowledge but literally every single word you wrote described how I’m feeling. I have 2 best friends who know the deepest and darkest secrets ever , I mean everything. I’ve dealt with lots issues recently and they definitely triggered me feeling so socially awkward. I can’t start conversations with people I used to consider ‘friends’ and so I’m basically losing my friends in school. My 2 best friends are older and don’t go to my school . My friend from school is just so good at talking people so i try stick with her to avoid one on one interactions with people but seriously I so get you. It sucks so much when I go to a party and can’t talk to people omg I hate it so much. I don’t even have fun bc I’m by myself most of the night bc I just don’t know how to talk to people

Hey @Spencerhastings it is an uneasy feeling isn't it. It's totally okay to feel it's not as easy for you to socialise with people, not everyone has to be super outgoing and connected. Some of my best friends are introverts and when they come out with me, they'll lay pretty low until they feel comfortable opening up. There's nothing wrong with it The anxiety can be irritating though no doubt. Have you ever heard of CBT? Look forward to hearing from you.

i'm so sorry that i'm so late to respond i had so much going on with school but it was so so so comforting to read this, not comforting to know that it's painful for you as well but just to know that we're not alone because this sort of feeling can make you feel so isolated, but i get everything that you're saying and really appreciate the response
