I am quiet and anxious face to face unless I know someone really well. I tend to zone out or dissociate too so I struggle to follow the conversation and sometimes I can't follow it at all. Meds help although I don't have nearly enough (struggling to find a good doctor) I have been isolating far too much lately and avoiding IRL friends. I really only feel comfortable talking to my husband, it's tough...
On line I am shy too and I beat myself up endlessly when I hurt someone. I know there has been a thread just lately which is partly about social phobia but posting is hard for me at the moment so I have to start somewhere.
I do like attention online and hate to be ignored, so any and all replies are welcome :)
