For reference I have a helicopter mother who can guilt trip and a possibly undiagnosed father with above average IQ, narcissistic tendencies, black and white thinking, anger management issues, and unpredictable personality (one minute he acts good then next he is cussing me out for being stupid or slow at instructions)

I've noticed that compared to my peers, like especially when I'm placed in an environment where I have to be surrounded by people, or even online, I noticed the way I behave is really like a weakling compared to everyone my age. Honestly until now, I still think I'm 16, but my physical age is in the 20s. I haven't moved on from the past because I was unable to fix the broken friendships/relationships with people due to psychosocial disability and I get misunderstood oftentimes.

Hi! Non-istj here, I want to understand this friend of mine.

I know the question may apply to other types as well. But I would just like to see if there's actually a pattern or if I'm just dealing with somebody who doesn't value me enough.

I recently communicated to this friend that I didn't feel reciprocated. She said sorry if I don't communicate well enough (along these lines) but still she continues to be the same. Actually there was some point in time that she was chatty to me but now she's not.

She gives really short replies, does not ask about me even if I ask about her, does not ask what can she do to convince me that she's actually still there even if she gave me reassurance thru chat, when I try to give a witty compliment to her she ignores it, I have to intentionally structure my chats so that it is easier for her to reply (for reference, I type myself as ENXP not sure yet with the F or T, probably more on F since people type me as INFP)

I think I made a bad choice trying to reconnect with her again. I just want to know at least if this is normal for you guys?? So I can either try to reframe my thinking or just let go of being her friend entirely by giving up on the conversation. I really want to believe you guys are good 🫶

Helloooo. Does anyone else find this difficult? Personally I do and I don't mind if I'll leave the house 2 hrs early before class starts I think it will help lessen over stimulation if I don't drive so fast

Please helpppp I just realized this today that I'm terrible at that but I've also always known I have difficulty doing many things all at once aside from being distracted ever 30 mins or so if I'm just at home within range of a computer cellphone and books. I'm asking this cause I realized like when someone's talking to me explaining stuff while I drive my head is confused on what to do, but when no one's speaking or just minimal noise I perform the driving better

I'm lowkey still doubting my diagnosis, and I still look back to events of the past like how I behaved, how I'm not careful at all, how I can be apathetic and insensitive to people, how I wasn't taught or shown proper manners/kindness and yet I am expected to perform that. And I don't even seem like the other asd (I'm level 1 btw), like they have meltdowns and have lesser control compare to me (maybe being a glass child also helps that's why I can control?) and they also have the repetitive movements (ex. Hand flapping, pacing back and forth) and less aware of the people around them (ex. Not using earphones when around people or in a place where people are working)

Idk if I'm the only one thinking this way, maybe there's others too? I'd like to know your thoughts

Hi! Asking this because I might not have a circle of friends the moment I return to school (took a 1 yr mental health break, will be returning by August.). I did something which deserves hate and I think the other members of my friend group hate me for it as well and have slowly detached already like no interest in being my friend already because I proved the rumors right (yes, there's rumors about me in school about my attitude and how I play victim)

I've been part of 3... And now 4 (counting this recent one) friend groups all throughout college and sad to say the common denominator in all of them is I'm the problematic one like I'm the reason why I got kicked out!! And honestly after all these experiences I'm no longer interested to be part of a friend group or even make new friends (emotionally, but if for my advantage like I'll use you you use me I don't mind!)

To be clear I do take accountability for all my actions and irresponsibility like I do not deny being the problematic one at all and I've went to therapists about it discussing the same issue over and over again and all they say is I'm hurt and misunderstood instead of agreeing that the blame should be on me.

Online friend-wise I got no problem making friends tho cause technically we're not part of each other's world and physical presence in one's IRL life is a huge factor. I'll treat you the same way how I treat my highschool friends. Also, highschool friends will just stay loyal to you, they're not always gonna be with you or make time for you anymore. I'm talking about the friends one makes in their school/work environment because I think that is 100% necessary for somebody to belong and not be outcasted. Like honestly even if your friend group is a bunch of weirdos as long as you aren't seen alone, you're not a loser!!

P.s pls do be kind btw, but if you wanna give a brutal opinion do give a heads up. I'm neurodivergent (confirmed and diagnosed) and words can hurt for me, sometimes. 😅

Hello, does anyone else experience this?? For example you remove them today then tomorrow and the day tomorrow there are already hairs. Just wanna know if this is normal when having pcos or if it's normal in general even for those without.
