I speak quietly and a lot of people can’t hear me. Even when I try to speak loudly, I’m lucky if I can get up to conversation volume.

I found her on a message board and something about the way she wrote made me think I would comfortable with her and my social anxiety wouldn’t be too bad. We had dinner and she kept saying things like “it’s ok i...

Sometimes you just need to walk away because it’s too much. I wouldn’t worry about whether it’s right nor not, it’s just reality. Maybe you could explain to your coworkers why you do it without getting into specifics but saying something like “sorry I needed to step away and let you handle that situ...

At the dinner table, when I get asked why I am being quiet, I won't say much until later on when everyone else has left the table or at other times of the day which in turn leaves an uncomfortable atmosphere for others because I'm not talking much and that then leaves me feeling like a ''bad person...
