Im sure if they actually knew people like us existed that they would stop and think for a moment that they're actually perfectly fine and we're the ones with the problems they think they have.

Not true.

Social anxiety is caused by a low level of neurotransmitter GABA. Anyone with social anxiety can cure themselves by taking supplements that increase GABA levels or psychiatric drugs that do the same.

The reason why people feel normal on alcohol who suffer from it is because alcohol is a drug that releases GABA.

If social anxiety wasn't real then howcome GABA drugs make it go away?

One time a bunch of teenage girls took an interest in me while I was on holiday. I was terrified. I saw them on the road up ahead of me, waiting to talk to me, so rather than deal with them I waited until I was out of sight on a bend in the road, broke off and ran into a field. I ran past several "No Trespassing" signs and into somebody's garden. I didn't know who the fuck lived there. Seemed like a very isolated farm. I had to slip past some barbed wire fencing to get in. This was less frightening to me than dealing with girls.

A person with real depression or social anxiety doesn't brag about it on Social Media or make up infographs. Hell, you don't even know they exist.

They avoid all social interaction to avoid problems or embarrassment.

Have you spoken to a normie recently? I'm more charismatic than most people. Most people are incredibly boring and interact more often on social apps than in reality

People actually have called me weird for phoning them, and also saying that I prefer to arrange to meet up anywhere just to talk. People basically just go outside to fucking instagram what they are doing. They just sit there on their fucking phones and look like they are going to shit themselves if they can't use the thing for whatever reason. God forbid there be a lull in conversation and there are no phones to retreat into

Fucking normies

>>25516399
They are sociopaths. They just don't learn actual empathy these days for whatever reason, they learn to how to imitate having it instead
>>
>>25516336
It's real, but the only people who actually have it have been in legitimately traumatizing experiences (getting shot, falling out of a building, insane amounts of abuse growing up, war, etc)

I think I read somewhere that it said it has to do with constantly being in a state of 'fight or flight' mechanisms, where 'normal' people wouldn't even dip into that under the same circumstances.

So yeah, most of the tumblrs who say "omg i got ptsd from my teach saying womyns get equal pay...WE MOST CERTAINLY DO NOT omgggg I have ptsd now!!!' are faking.

The thing is the only people that will openly tell you that they have it (like most mental illness) are the ones that don't actually have it or have mild versions of it and ham it up for attention, which is fucking revolting.

I have a friend who has it and his panic attacks are legitimately terrifying. Hes been through serious shit and he has to take heart medication because his attacks can quite literally give him a heart attack.

The fact that fat cunts who are upset that people make fun of them for being fat have falsely co opted this illness makes me physically angry.

Believing in God doesn't preclude rational thought. This is a fallacy that's been repeated so many times, many people think it's truth.

Also, the whole magical bearded man in the sky thing is nothing more than juvenile mockery. No Abrahamic religious text describes God's attributes in that way, you intellectually lazy fuckwit. You don't even read shit before you try to mock it yet you blame other people for lacking rational thought.

Normies aren't sociopaths, they're just THAT fucking shallow and incapable of acknowledging that not everybody fits the same mold. Sociopaths are completely incapable of empathy or compassion, they see and interpret the world in a way that most people would find incomprehensible. You'd know if you were talking to one.

I once saw a documentary about social anxiety. I think it wasn't in English though.
There was a guy who was over 40, an office worker, and he mostly hang around by himself. Didn't talk much to people in the office either. Coworkers tolerated him, as in they didn't bully him or anyhting, but they thought he was weird. The reporter tried to make him socialize with some random person out in the street, but he said "why? what's the point".

Im a sociopath by definition but wouldn't call myself one. I have a lack of empathy and rarely feel emotions like most normal people. I still have emotions but they are a much duller than most people. I can't remember the last time I felt overwhelming happiness or sadness. Probably when I was on drugs but that doesn't count.

I'm also pretty normal by most peoples' here standards. I have a job, a life and people who I could call friends but I'd much, much rather be alone.

My brother is a shut-in who lives in his room at our parents' house. He only comes out at night, to go to the bathroom and get food from the kitchen. He hasn't left the house in years. He probably owns piss bottles and shit jugs. His blinds are always shut, I'm guessing he hasn't seen sunlight in a long time. When i'm at their house, and i go to the kitchen at night, sometimes there's a beastial smell, my mother told me he doesn't shower and never has his clothes washed, meaning he's worn the same dirty clothes for years. He is about 30 now and has lived like this since he was roughly 17, although it didn't start that badly, but it got increasingly worse.

Basically, you're saying every person with social anxiety should live like him, because actually trying to defeat your anxiety is pointless and means your anxiety isn't real.

You can't understand the way he feels because you literally can't even imagine having a complex that bad. He's not CHOOSING to be disgusting. He doesn't like living that way.

You trivialize other people's problems because yours are so minuscule and that's your only point of reference.
