Rekindle ANY previous relationship with friends or relatives that just kind of fell by the wayside... it's important to establish and/or maintain contact with others that you can or will feel comfortable with.\nIf all else fails, spend a LOT of time right here and ask for all the help you can handle- this is a great lace for real, true and helpful advice.

. Maybe it is time to consider finding a new friend Friends accept us for what we are the best of and the worst. If you feel strange there problem is something going on. Are sure they are friends and can you really be yourself around them. If so how can you be thinking you can mess things up? Life is to short to be up happy either ask them straight out or accept the way thing are.

i think its both... independence and fear, but mostly fear. i have been one of those people. sometimes when u feel that ur getting really close to someone you get scared... this might sound weird but you think that it would be easier for you to hurt yourself by taking yourself away from that person then that person leaving you. it took a while for me to notice what i was doing. hang in there with the person that you are talking about, you just need to show them that you're not going anywhere and that there is nothing to be afraid of.

Hmm. Of course its not weird. You are used to feeling a certain way, and there was a degree of safety in that. What you have now sounds like hope. Hope for the future, and in a way that can be a little scary. That goes for everyone. Its uncertain when you dont know what is coming.\nWell done to you for leaving your past behind you. You will now be able to empathise with others who feel like you once did - there sure is a lot of them!\nHow you feel is how you feel. Dont doubt yourself!

This is very common so down feel like your alone. I thought I was the only person at one time. Then I started noticing it in people like myself. \n\nYour still searching for what interest you and when you do your eyes and hears will be focused. Then you will be able to express yourself.\nI don't think your shy because you talk, of enjoying talking with people.\n\nMaybe they are not listen to you and being selfish when accusing you of not responding or not listening. \nAlways think positive about yourself and never take the guilt of thinking somethings wrong with you, Cause's a complex.\n\nTheres nothing wrong with you question see your doing it again by saying I know this is dumn. Nothing is dumn if you wish to express yourself.\n\nTo put this in a nut shell- Find a friend that likes what you enjoy and there will be allot of communication.

Get out and make friend. Maybe you are depressed and need to see a doctor. What has changed in your life to make you feel this way?

I often feel left out with my friends, I think it's only happened lately. Or rather, I'm only beginning to feel this way. It feels quite hurtful sometimes - like you're not as important as everyone else. \n\nWhat I did was to ... (don't laugh) ... start smiling, A LOT. I'm serious. Happy people like other happy people. So, even if at first your smiles might be a little weird or even fake, you get used to it. And soon, you could be smiling without even realizing it!\n\nIt's quite fun actually. You could also try to be less sensitive to what other people say - sometimes, they don't actually mean to be hurtful. Just join in their conversations and laugh along. Oh, and perhaps yo could stop ignoring other people? I know it's not fun, but just try to grit your teeth and do it. \n\nGood luck!

The first thing that I notice about people is : confidence.  Do they look you in the eye and seem interested in what you are saying?\nJust try to stay calm and talk about stuff that you are interested in.  Let the other person speak and listen attentively.\nMy friend has this SAME problem.  Don't be upset by being a little quirky - all my friends are strange and that's why I want to hang around with them!\nIf nothing seems to be working, maybe you could see a councilor.  Hope that you start to feel better soon.

Oh! How fun! I have been on a couple excursions with some friends of mine. Start up convos easing in on the belief of ghosts with some people and see If they want to check out some of the local "haunts" in your area. Look up places on the internet...Its possible to find others who won't think you're weird.

Gain some space then learn to be comfortable , with your own campany by treating yourself right, and gradualy find new interested and explore new things. it sounds like you've cut youself off from the rest of the world... get out much? Don't put all your eggs in one basket....

Maybe you've just become so used to it you don't know how to get away from it, maybe the people in your life are making you feel very reliant on them, if its really bothering you then get a few books from the library on how to be assertive and more confident, the sooner you break away from relying on others the more you will be yourself, good luck.

what everyone else said....don't worry about those weird thoughts going through your head, and don't worry about wondering  who you are, because you don't recognize yourself anymore.  You are growing and your hormones are raging and might make you do things you wouldn't normally.  Try to be kind.

OH YEAH ... not a very good feeling, being detached.  I have also felt like I was, literally, in a dream.  It was weird, like no one saw me but I saw them.  It wasn't like I was being ignored, just as if I was watching "life" go on and kinda like I was a ghost.  Is that what you meant?

Sounds to me like you need friends who will encourage you and be confidence builders. You're going it alone and your shyness is holding you back and this is where good friends will step in and give you support. Reach out, make friends who will help you feel more secure about yourself. Some of us here list our emails and message links to be of help. Take advantage of this and the experience others may have that can offer you support and advice as friends should.\n\nBest Wishes!!
