Kept To Myself..

Back from a long while.. I was new here, and been on for few days before i stopped. :( Been dealing with things I kept to myself, but over time my anxiety went into panic attacks off and on and nothing really change except that I am having some health troubles. I hope I can reconnect again with everyone. I have social anxiety disorder so i tend to disappear one day I am not feeling to good. I want to be more open and stay around more and make some friends. :D I just turn 20 weeks ago in october, I am having pressure in my RL, and not only that self esteem problems. I don't want to be too negative, I'm trying to improve myself. ^_^

welcome back! I am pretty new here also, about a month in. I made one post prior to today but everyone has been so kind here. You will make tons of friends here im sure! I know how staying to yourself can be. I feel like I deal with enough people in a day that i just come home and dont want to go anywhere. I very much prefer to stay home or be alone. People tend to tire me out lol. Happy Belated 20th birthday! Stay strong and keep that chin up!

Hello! And thank you so much! ❤ I can understand.. I stay in my home all the time from exhaustion and my home is like my comfort zone, lol. :) I get more energy alone, but use this energy to try and talk to people. And recharge at my home by relaxing and watching movie alone. But there is nothing wrong with being alone, just means more you time and a cup of coffee to enjoy. Cheers! :D

Selfkitten, there are 2 ways. If I send you a message, the chat button at the top of the screen will say 1. Tap it and you will connect to me directly. From that point on, all you have to do is go tap the chat button anytime you wanna talk. To add new messages just write in rhe message box at the bottom of the page and hit the blue send button underneath the message box.....To contact other people. Tap the chat button and when the page comes up you will see a blue compose button in the right corner. Tap it and several boxes will appear. The top one is for the person you wish to contact. Type in their user name and then underneath in the message box, type your message. Hit send when your finished. You will connect directly to whomever you chose. Send more messages by going to the bottom of the page typing your message and then hitting send. It's up to them to respond to you, though. Would love to hear from you. Love, peace, happiness & joy.....

To follow new friends tap the main hub caption at the top of your page. Then tap ADAA. On that page locate members caption and tap that. On that page in the left corner you will see a box that says search for members. Put in the user name of your new friend. It will come up with your friends name and avatar. At the bottom of your new friends segment, you will see separate follow and following tabs. Tap follow and you will know everything that person posts. They can add you that way too. Also if you pm someone the page will ask if you want to follow them as soon as they reply. I am always here for you. Okay?

Hi and welcome back!

I struggle with social anxiety too 😞

It helps being here, just writing things down and saying how I feel, it gets it out.

Glad you returned, there’s no pressure here, just be you

Good wishes x x
