I Struggle With Mental Illness

Is why I find it so hard to get close to people. I have anxiety disorder and social anxiety. I always assume people won't like me or will think I'm weird. In a way, people scare me. I actually really like people it's just difficult interacting. I dont feel anxious online I wish I was the same in real life.
I feel misunderstood by everyone. Mainly my family.

I got over those feelings at a very young age and love my weirdness and really could care less if I am not accepted. It has actually served me well through life as I am 69 now. My wife tells me I have asperger's and I tend to agree with her but I am actually very happy with myself. Most everyone that matters to me accepts me and they say they enjoy my honesty.
