I Am Sometimes Antisocial

Actually, I'm pretty much always antisocial. I am an introvert through and through. It's not something I'm proud of, I actually hate it. But social situations bring on blurry vision, sweaty palms, increased heart rate, and a shaky voice.

Social media is my only way of interacting with other people, and yet, even keeping up a conversation behind the safety of my phone screen is quite difficult. I get on social media, hoping that I'll find messages, that someone has decided to reach out to me. That's neber really the case.

My Husband has decided to take it upon himself to try and find me friends. Boy, does that make me feel even more pathetic. I hate the thought of being forced to befriend his friends' wives because I am incapable of befriending people on my own.

My daughter has this too. Sge is extremely introverted and has panic attacks in public. I tend to serve as her buffer and help her get through social situations. Severely introverted people often need soneone to do things with them. You shouldn't feel bad. You DO need more help making friends than most people do. So what? We all have things we struggle with.
