I hate when people who know me tell me I could benefit from therapy-counseling. For what?

I don't think it's my fault that people confuse being shy (to a degree) with social anxiety. I mean I would be the first to admit I have social anxiety. Maybe I do, but if I do it's just a trace or traces of it in certain situations. I hate that people over-exaggerate and over-react when I explain a social situation that could have possibly gone better than it did.

It's really annoying.

You could definitely use therapy for your TDS issues. Maybe you could find something worthwhile to be consumed with.

@Gibbon Congrats. You are on your way to becoming a super-fan.

Gibbon · 70-79, M

@MarkPaul And you can get it out.

MarkPaul · 26-30, M

@Gibbon So can you... the easy way... or the hard way...

@MarkPaul He lives in your head rent free. I don't have that problem. Get back on your meds

MarkPaul · 26-30, M

@Gibbon Apparently, I live in your head rent-free. Cheer up though, for your devotion, you just might be getting gifted a pair of oversized shoes... like Marco. No doubt, you will wear them like he does.

@Gibbon Imagine the post we would see if trump himself greeted Mark in person. 😄

@MarkPaul Ya know a lot of us do not agree with trump BUT there isn't a whole lot any of us can do about what goes on in Washington.

@HoeBag Are you crazy? Anyone on the planet can do something. And everyone should. No Kings!

@Gibbon I used to get worked up over politics a lot more, but I finally decided it wasn't good for my mental health and getting riled just wasn't doing any good.

But yeah with TDS, some have it even worse. I used to know someone in real life who still had REAGAN derangement syndrome. 🙄 Like sir, he has been gone for 20 years!

@HoeBag Yeah that's hanging on far too long. My thing with both MarkPaul and Waveney is their self-righteous arrogance presenting their TDS. They have both completely lost it.
