Not so congrats on not understanding the idea that you can care about people who aren't like you...

ayrt Eh, I get get really anxious. It's been diagnosed. It isn't going to stop me from saying thank-you to people who've put themselves out there. Life has to be lived, both irl and online. Politeness, pfui or not? Not, in my case.

Not going to invalidate your diagnosis because 1) I don't care and it's not useful to the conversation 2) I'm not your doctor 3) I don't know you, but you know that there are different people out there that can have the same diagnosis as you and completely different triggers, right?

I suffer from anxiety disorder and OCD and back when I tried to comment on fics/fanarts to express my gratitude I spent a minimum of 30 minutes to even write three sentences and then continue to refresh the page to see if the author was responding to me. While imagining all the scenarios where I gravely offended the author and any other person who came across to my comment.

I gave up on commenting years ago because it isn't sustainable to me. I wish I could not care about other people's reaction to my comments online, but I CAN'T. I care about the authors' feelings too much and I guilt trip myself into thinking I've offended them while I'm saying a simple "thank you". I know it's messed up.
F!S is one of the only online spaces I can write on because I'm anon and generally nobody cares that much about what I'm writing, I think.

Meanwhile, IRL I have way less anxiety speaking to strangers (even less than you possibly) because I can see the reactions other people have to what I'm saying right in front of me, thus adjusting my speaking manner and trying to explain myself better. We are all different.
Even if YOU CAN comment to fics with no problem, it doesn't mean that other people can, too.

It should be too hard to understand this and every time we have there types of conversation here on F!S I grow more tired and tired...
