I feel disconnected from everyone I know personally. I get along fine with people on the internet but face-to-face or on the phone, I just find myself drowning.
I'm still in high school, but I'm not being bullied, I'm not being ignored. I have friends that like me, that think I'm interesting and funny, I have teachers that care about me, but it's like the more I try to get to know them, the more I feel like I'm just wasting my time. I know I'm supposed to be in that stage where I'm a social butterfly or whatever, but I find myself making excuses to not go out and all I want to do is go to my room and sleep or write. I even wear headphones so no one bothers me.
Being with my family is even worse. I try to bond, try to talk with them and know them beyond, "Oh, hey that's my sister. We shared a uterus." I just can't open up.
And it's not like I have good days, where I'm happy to hang out and kick my feet up on someone's couch and talk with their mother. It's like everyday is the same and time just drags on and I can't move with it.
And now I feel even worse because I clicked new topic by accident and created an accidental new topic. I hope the mods fix it soon.
