I don't know how to reply to this...

I don't know if I'm saying this correctly, but I want to add this as an additional issue:

You don't understand this thing about me:

Here it is:
I don't know how to express myself properly in RL nor, potentially, here nor... anywhere. I almost always give everybody the wrong idea. I don't know if I would ever be able to advocate for myself.
I never give out my opinion the same way, ever. I HONESTLY rarely know what I'm ever talking about myself.

I rarely understand any opinions/posts on this website. I am always baffled by how anybody could write so many words, and be accurate. :omg:
Where's the logic?


I feel that I really don't know myself, and that I'm just a ghost to myself.

I don't know what to do with my life in times like these.

I'm in despair. :cry:-

I can't find trust in anybody.
There's nobody I'm comfortable sharing my business/activities/anything with, not even my mother.

What do I do???




EDIT: I'm feeling a bit better at the moment, but I would still like some [more] feedback on the two issues.

a lot of what i get for advice for others or how i can relate to them depends. sometimes i have experienced it, but a lot of the time i watch people.

while i dont understand why i perform the latter, i do know i spent my adolescent and teenage years knowing something was differe t about me, but was never able to understand. and so i would watch to pick up how people acted. and i would take on a persona of each trait i took to be a logical solution to how i should act.

now...i have a theory. it wasnt until earlier this year that i believed i was asperbic. i had been told by aspies that i acted like it, but i was unsure. i had been taught nothing was wrong with me. i had begun to believe that. and yet others knew it.

so...i guess all i can say is you dont know you. we rely on others to tell us about ourselves. you look at you and see the oposite of how i describe you. and yet we are like minded in a way. could be asd. could not be. like you i trust no one. i grew up knowing everyone would break trust. peven those who love me. and to put it blunt...i feel dead. like there is no spirit. but people say i have a soul and heart with how i help others and be their one and only friend.

i mean, if you want to disclose your secrets and problems, theres tons here to help. im willing. we all go through the same ♥♥♥♥ sometimes, maybe worse. xD

but you are never who you see yourself to be, and yet you are. its hard to explain...but we dont build off ourselves. we build off the people around us and how they percieve us. its how we get better and respect ourselves and others more. humn nature at its finest.

Triple J, for as long as I've known you you have been kind, honest, thoughful and selfless. Whether we only know each other through the Internet or not is irrelevent. You are, truly, a great person, and you're talented as well. Trust me when I say this: you shouldn't be worrying about yourself, and sure, you might have personal issues deep down, but just relax and try to figure out who it's best to talk to about your problems. It's obviously serious if you can't tell your own mother.

Just felt like saying this:
I actually have two secrets that I've managed to keep secret throughout my whole life. I'm lucky nobody's ever figured them out, despite me being very witty in terms of hiding the two; this world provides countless variables that always differ. In fact, if I ever have to cover them up because somebody's coming, or is paying attention to me, etc., I will react correctly in time, usually quicker than any cat.
Basically, if either of those two secrets ever get exposed at all whatsoever, I would kill myself. No lie. In fact, I'd say it'd be the best for me, because...... you won't understand unless you'd realize how sensitive I am to the thoughts of anybody ever knowing the two secrets.

So... let us not talk about any secrets I have. They aren't really bothering me anyway, since I consider myself a true god in terms of hiding them. So, yeah.

Well, I have more trouble telling my mother than telling a trustworthy friend.

I don't want you to share your secrets with anyone if they would really make things worse if people knew, but if things get on top of you I hope you know you can always talk to me. I've had a lot of experience, and I always try to prioritise things like these if someone needs help.

If you feel desperate or down again because of something, don't be afraid to send me a PM. I won't judge, I won't even reply if you don't want me to, and I certainly won't talk to anyone else about it. I respect people's privacy. Soo, yeah.

And I know I'm not the only one here right now who would be happy to help.

The thing about judging is that more often than not we don't have a right to judge each other. Often times people will judge each other with out having any idea of what the other person is going through. Often times people will judge without proper knowledge of motives. Often times people will judge because they think of themselves too highly. In all reality, the people that judge others are only bringing judgement upon themselves. For people that bear judgement, people that bully, people that put others down, they tend to be really insecure. People that do things like this put others down because it makes them feel better knowing they aren't the lowest. People that judge others are often judged as being snobs, self-righteous, condescending, etc. by their own actions. Some people judge others because they have the same faults. People like that are hypocritical and judge themselves with their own actions. I try my best to not judge anybody as I'm all too often not aware of everything. I've got way way way more problems than I care to mention. As such, I have no right to be judgmental.

I know about not being able to express myself properly. Clarity is one of my weak points. While I generally get the idea out, I tend to word it in such a way that it's not clear. As far as I know, getting rid of it first starts with recognizing the issue, then practicing to fix it. One of my other issues is I tend to think with my mouth; speak first, think later. So trust me, I can sympathize with you.

hey, if it makes things any better off, ive been told things by many that i never tell anyone. wether it be abuse, molestation, sex, sexual abuse, secret disorders, family troubles, suicidal attempts, you name it, ive heard it. most of it comes from sources off this site, but you would be surprised just who on here goes through tough times.

and even if the vast amount takes a negative effect on my emotions, i hold to the promise to die with them on my mind.

albiet i have a few secrets of my own you guys dont know. few have seen or heard me on skype, and if you think im a tough guy who likes to party...thats a persona. the big secret is that i have feminine tendencies with fashion and cooking, and a few bisexual wys of socializing. nonetheless i dont let it get to me.

and have i been judged? you bet. a lot. called gay as well. but im proud to be me. and if anyone doesnt appreciate me for who i am....well....truth is they can ♥♥♥♥ themselves. because i know who i am...and im proud of it.

Reading this thread was one of the inspirations I had for finishing my big post here. I hope it helps.
