Does anyone else get that feeling?
-
You’re with your friend, joking around like usual, until a thought strikes you.
“What if I’m too annoying? Maybe I should shut up.”
So you leave them alone, and once they notice you’ve gone quiet, they ask up.
“Hey, are you alright?”
“No, I’m just… feeling annoying.”
“What? But you’re not annoying at all!” What they all say.
“I love when you’re like this!” What they all say.
I never seem to trust anyone when they say “You’re not annoying!” because I always seem like I do, and honestly? Sometimes I get so overwhelmed I don’t know what to do because I also feel as if I’m attention-seeking, but hey, what a shame, it’s my fault for feeling like this, victimizing like always.
I’m only getting this off my chest, might need a bit of help however, I can’t just let myself feel like this forever, not like “Oh I’m attention seeking and being annoying, I should just shut up.” And not believe anyone, as I said.
If anyone has some advice, please say, I can’t feel like this forever.

Soverign It’s getting worse.
I contemplate about staying silent at school, but it’s never successful, I just have to keep running my mouth, they’re all annoyed at me. I know they’re lying.
I don’t want anyone to be worried about me. “Then don’t vent!” is all I tell myself. But I want to, I have to, otherwise how else am I going to get advice, hm?
Any tips on staying silent but at the same time speaking? I don’t want anyone to get concerned about me, I just want to go back to the ways they were before.

I can somehow relate to this, but instead it’s just whenever I’m with irl friends, apparently no one can hear me and I’m not there. Honestly I just stopped talking to them, but they too have noticed when I no longer conversated with them as usual and then they turn around and actually wanna talk to me for once, which I just gave them the same treatment and hung out with different friends.
Yes, people can be talkative, but I want you to make sure you’re on a one-on-one convo with your besties to make sure they’re listening (not forcing you to do so.) If they seem to not respond, you should call them when they don’t seem very into the conversation. You may feel like this about yourself when someone doesn’t make eye contact or talk less than you whenever you and whoever are talking about whatever. I can promise you aren’t annoying in general, those are just opinions getting to your head.
Soverign I love you (platonically) bro
Let me know if you want comfort. - Raven
