[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Uh this is me. I don’t realize I’m doing it until LATER. My problem is I have been working on for years.. low self-esteem. I have esteem in some areas, but not around others. I clam up. Like I said, I’m working on it. Sometimes I manage well. Other times things are on my mind, I can’t give my ‘anxiety’ (not anxiety, but whatever you wanna call it) all of my attention. So, I revert to my unsociable and nervous self.[/quote] Me again. I did it today. My kid was acting unexpectedly grumpy. It was an awkward day to feel grumpy (preschool graduation). I was there, and my kid threw me for a loop. We held it together, but I could only focus on the one thing. I wished I could have talked to more people because I may not be able to go to the party. I think normal people could manage both. But, I could see myself occupied by my kid and his issue today. I could almost reach out and wave and chat, but I just couldn’t.[/quote] Same here. Sometimes I'm really chatty with the parents at the bus stop and other times I don't talk with them at all. Has 100% to do with how I/the kids slept, if we had a bad morning, if work is stressful etc. Nothing to do with the other parents. Sometimes I just don't have the energy to smile and make small talk through it. [/quote]
