I've always wanted to experience lucid dreams and I did once for a second. I'm really interested in them but I can't achieve them again no matter how hard I try. However I did have a sleep paralysis some time ago. I "woke up" but I couldn't move. I moved my eyes across the room where I could...

My sister and I were drunk with some of our friends. We were talking about childhood stories. She told us all she used to not like me at all, when we were kids. I mean when I think of it I know she didn't always like me. She used to bully me a lot but in our teens and nowadays we are somewhat...

I'm just alone all the time on my free time. I have a job and there i mostly feel alone, too. Even on the internet  I find it hard to make  connections. I am past my mid 20's and I've always felt this way. I recently had my birthday and realized my life is not going anywhere. Sure  I am lucky...

I've dealt with depression for all my life but it got bad in my early teen years. Now I am 26, barely any friends. I think I've developed a problem with alcohol too. I have a job so at least  I can pay my bills. But I have some debt too from the time I was unemployed. Money causes me a lot of...

I often wonder, would I be different was I born in a different family? Sometimes I really feel like all my problems come from my family for as long as I can remember. Now this leads to another problem which is, how can I blame anyone (my family) really? What if I one day have kids of my own and...

First of all I'm not sure if this kind of stuff is allowed here. I tried to read the rules but I couldn't find about self-harm. This is not a suicide thread. I've been working for almost a year now. Sometimes I make mistakes and I take them really hard. I just usually end up crying alone to...

This is so silly but very real to me. Someone talks to me but I don't know what to say,  I don't even realize I shoudl say something, or I don't have the strength to open my mouth. Online, irl. :(  Whats wrong wiht me. I'm too good at ignorng people. No wonder nothing ever happens to me. I don't...

This is a weird problem. Many co-workers and friends open up to me about their problems but good things also. They tell me what's up in their lives. Then there's me who never share anything. I listen to them and get to know them but then I realize they don't know pretty much anything about me in...

This happens especially at work when I'm suddenly supposed to respond to something to a co-worker, or even if I want to start a conversation, or join in. I work at a shop and mostly don't have such issues with customers. What is wrong with me? I don't talk a lot with my co-workers and I might...

Most people at my workplace are somewhat friends with each other. They always find things to talk about. Then there's me, the one who barely looks anyone in the eye. I don't know why I'm so scared. I'm scared to show my true self. I get exhausted easily and I think it's better to always be quiet...

Thinking about it hurts and makes me cry but it's true, I  hate myself. I hate to be around people, I hate to see my reflection on surfaces, I hate my voice and the fact that I'm shy and socially isolated. Whenever I go someplace new (new job, school, etc) I can act happy and social for a couple...

Seems like the looks are everything... Oh, I know, I've seen "less attractive" girls in relationships. But I can't get over my own looks. Also I think I am very boring. Cold. Not interesting. I don't think anyone's really been interested in me ever. I'm sorry, this must sound very pathetic...

I'm bad at these introductions but anyway. I suffer from social anxiety but I manage to go to school. I'm somewhere around 20 years old. I love to paint, cook & bake, and be with my two little dogs. I am lonely even though I mostly have some people around me. I just can't get very close to...
