Writing the OP took me about 6 hours, and I put off doing it for about a week before that. In all social interactions I get very apprehensive, thoughts of all the reasons not to talk to people and all the things that could possibly go wrong from doing so pop into my head - they're very hard to power through, it takes a lot of time and effort and is quite stressful. Expressing any sort of personality/individuality especially brings out these thoughts, opinions i'm ok with

Great job you're doing so far. I'm sure it'll get better as you spend more time here. Anything I/we could do to help?

Thank you Smile I hope it will. I'm not sure there's anything anyone here could do to help me, I want to get to a point where i'm so comfortable talking to people here it feels natural (or at least more natural) and i feel free to express myself more - but at this point any help from people to get me there would really freak me out. Continue as normal I guess, just keep being decent people

That rep you gave me helped though   Angel
“The larger the group, the more toxic, the more of your beauty as an individual you have to surrender for the sake of group thought. And when you suspend your individual beauty you also give up a lot of your humanity. You will do things in the name of a group that you would never do on your own. Injuring, hurting, killing, drinking are all part of it, because you've lost your identity, because you now owe your allegiance to this thing that's bigger than you are and that controls you.”  - George Carlin
