god i just sent a pm and now i feel like im gonna be sick. it wasnt even a heavy pm i was just asking for bbcode advice why am i like this. i feel so anxious whenever i try to send messages and i feel like its definitely ruining all my friendships but i just cant make myself do it. its so hard and i feel so silly for feeling this way but i cant help it. how am i supposed to do anything if i cant even maintain a simple conversation. i hate this. and i feel so awful because im over here posting and making art and whatnot and i feel like it looks like im just ignoring everyone but its just. different. when i post i feel like im on my own, i dont feel like im being watched, but when i send a pm its aimed at someone specific and its written specifically for them to read and for some reason that terrifies me. it comes and goes but its really strong atm, right when i need it not to be and i just jdkhfgzdkjkgk i dunno. i keep seeing all my friends having fun and i just get filled with some sorta bad feeling because i know ill never be able to maintain a relationship like that. im just incapable of putting in the effort that it takes and i hate myself for it. and i know its not entirely my fault but i still feel like a selfish bastard because of it.
in other news i have to go into school tomorrow to get my grades and im terrified. not of my results but of being around people again. itll be the first time seeing everyone since i came out as trans (and i didnt tell everyone, but im not hiding it anymore) and thats like. ugh. plus ill probably get deadnamed a bunch, which i can tolerate because its early, but still. its a lot.
