H ard to love O bnoxious T errible

having parents that were really angry and petty and abusive when you were young is weird, because it makes part of you grow up to want to be kind, to generate good things, to be a source of peace and wellbeing for others; but it makes another part of you grow up to be quick, and sharp, and spiteful, and that’s always the part that shows itself first in a hard situation, so it’s a struggle between your hateful gut reactions and your wish to not add any more misery to the world. it’s a hard balance, and the people who really, really know me - i know they see that anger flash in my eyes before i quiet it, if i quiet it…i want to overcome years of conditioning, and with gentle, constant force, i know i’ll mellow it. it just takes time.

I’m just a horny piece of shit who likes food and over thinks everything.

How about for once we have some support for socially anxious people who are also outgoing or extroverted?

Shout out to socially anxious people who talk too much and regret every word they say

Shout out to socially anxious people who have a habit of word vomiting because they’re nervous

Shout out to socially anxious people who plan out exactly what they’re going to say but get too excited and end up going overboard

Shout out to socially anxious people who get in fights and arguments but later feel ashamed for showing so much passion and scared that people with differing opinions will target them

Shout out to socially anxious people who try to listen and be a good friend, but they talk so much that no one acknowledges that they listen, too

Shout out to socially anxious people who boldy dance in front of people or wear what they want or express themselves, only to get overwhelmed and go hide later

Shout out to socially anxious people who have a constant war in their heads because they both love and hate being the center of attention

Shout out to socially anxious people who are well aware that their voice is really loud, thank you very much

Social anxiety isn’t limited to being shy and quiet. You can be a socially anxious person even if you’re loud and rambunctious. Anyone can have social anxiety; you don’t have to fit the ‘classic introvert’ profile to be valid.
