Re: So I'm one of "those" people

[(Anonymous)]

thanks

I'm a failure at socializing and I've been in and out of anxiety the last few days so I probably didn't word things right and yeah okay I am obviously the one with the problem. Thanks for taking the time to answer.

Look, if you're basically reaching the point where you're making statements like 'am I crazy or is EVERYONE ELSE CRAZY instead' seriously and there's no real middle ground... yeah, it's probably your anxiety speaking. I honestly do hope that you find some way to address that, because it does sound pretty stressful and hard on you as well. I am sorry that you feel that way about things. It's okay to care about stuff and to let yourself be affected by things around you. Everyone does. But knowing how to cope with that and go on and having coping skills as well as knowing how to self settle are all pretty important too.

Anyway, I'd say that the caring part is fine, but the stress about things is probably your anxiety speaking. Removing yourself from the trigger (i.e. not going near stuff you care about) doesn't actually fix the underlying issues of the fact that you freak out pretty bad about stressors that most people can cope with. I was being completely serious about suggesting therapy - talking with people and getting how you feel out can be helpful in cases like yours.

Sorry, it is the anxiety talking and I should know better than to talk when I'm anxious and calm down first. I've been a wreck there's so much crap going on in my life right now. A lot of people are sick and dying and having to deal with this whole animal thing is just the icing on the cake.

I've spoken to doctors about my anxiety before and lets just say it never goes well. I've just found it more efficient to cope on my own and take meds in emergencies.

I made the mistake of making the OP in the first place on a whim and I'm sorry about it. It was worded badly and I should have known it would just get me upset if people weren't blunt and started asking me questions.

I mean this in the nicest way possible - FS general comments is probably not where you want to go when you are feeling like this. It does sound like you could use some support and people to just sorta talk to who won't be harsh on you, and god knows this place harsh most days and doesn't really go easy on anyone. It may be familiar, but it's not necessarily ideal.

If you're not comfortable with doctors and prefer anonymity, could I suggest sites like http://www.7cupsoftea.com/ or https://www.bigwhitewall.us ? Both of which may be more able to provide you with the kind of responses that would actually help more at this point in time. Another pretty safe / supportive space I know of is http://www.reddit.com/r/offmychest - yes, it's reddit, but it has a very strictly enforced and modded community that does focus on helping people when they need to vent or get things... well, off their chest, as the name says. The regulars there are all pretty nice, as well, and it's a little more anonymous than the other two.

Anyway, whatever happens best of luck dealing. It does sound like you might not be in the best place right now, but I hope that you might be able to be in the future, if possible.
