Hey Im m/25. I'm in the process of self learning and Ive come to realize my a bit eccentric personality makes many people, who don't know me, see me as mentally handicapped. There's not much I can do. I'm just like that. Also my personal appearance(not style. mainly my eyes) make me look a bit odd. What can I do to immediately make sure when meeting someone the first time that I'm not handicapped? I don't care about random strangers. Just new acquaintances. I wish I was high energy and witty, but I admit I am not. Maybe I can become more witty, if I keep having social interactions...

I guess many others here might have the same problem. It pains me all oddities are looked down upon... Thanks for reading.

Well, you better have someone who already knows you with you then.

Wear a name tag and a helmet. It'll work, promise.

lol fuck my life...

It sometimes feels like a nightmare. I always think I look like how I feel inside, but no... People get the image I'm not the brightest. I used to get this as a kid: "You're not as dumb as you look." Is there any way I can nullify this by saying upfront something clever when I meet new people?

Make and keep eye contact (even if your eyes are strange, as you say), shake hands and introduce yourself when meeting people, stand tall and push your shoulders back (slouching makes people look inferior), keep your chin raised, and dress well. Body language is a game changer.

You know what. My body language sucks. I try to keep a good posture, but as I was reading your message I realized I was slouching... Dammit!

I don't think you can practice that really.

You can, if you learn good responses for most things and know about a lot of topics. I just argued with some teenagers about gays and I couldnt beat them in the argument. They said gays are disgusting and I didnt have anything good up my sleeve, so it became a pointless discussion. Also, whenever I discuss politics I don't have strong points. I guess I should read more. My brain sucks though. Even on 4chan when Im writing responses it feels like I'm reaching out for thoughts in a dark room and pick whatever I can instead of well-put-together sentences.
