What's Bothering You?

I’m feeling a bit triggered and anxious. I’m a little hungry too and should eat before the game session but I don’t have much of an appetite for anything. I’m kinda up in the air about continuing the game sessions next week and on; I would like to since I have a lot of fun and I know everyone that has been showing up enjoys it too.

I am sad that, outside of general chit chat with coworkers, my most meaningful and touching conversation I have had today is with a food delivery person.

I wish I knew how to be social like a lot of you.
I feel you. It feels like I’m surrounded by extroverted people and I just don’t know how they do it. >_<
 
Littl irritated, I am playing the gamecube version of animal crossing, and recently, I've only been able to find two fossils; the other two must be like hidden behind a tree or something but its not like I can view behind it like you can on NH. :/
im tempted to just like cut down all the trees, i was planning to make a nice layout but i dunno how annoyed my villagers will be at me.

I remember in Wild World, I was unable to get one fossil because a villager moved in the spot where the crack was. When the villager moved out, I was able to dig up the fossil.
 
Depressed and still dealing with a bit of anxiety. I got a message last night that did help ease some of the anxiety but I’m still worried, sad and disappointed right now. Also feeling a bit extra sensitive to things I wish didn’t bother me.

The launch day of the Switch 2 is only 3 days away, and I’m not getting one.

How Nintendo responds to the fans’ negative backlash: “If you can’t afford the Switch 2, then you don’t deserve it. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!”

My reaction: “Financial status doesn’t determine whether or not you deserve something just because it happens to be too expensive!!!” 🤬🤬🤬

I HATE NINTENDO AND DOUG BOWSER. BOTH CAN GO DIE IN THE FIREY PITS OF HADES!!!

Fingers crossed I get the Switch 2 for my birthday. Even though it’s a month and a day after the console releases.

It's a tough journey, but social skills can absolutely be learned! There are tons of guides on YouTube. One book that has helped me is 'The Charisma Myth: How Anyone Can Master the Art and Science of Personal Magnetism', by Olivia Fox Cabane. There are some easy to remember tips that have allowed me come out of my shell and strike conversations with strangers, rather than just waiting for people to talk to me.

Loneliness sucks, especially when you feel starved of social stimulation. If it's possible for you, I recommend joining a weekly class or hobby group in your area. I've been trying to find new in-person friends and although I haven't found my people yet, it can be good to have routinely things to look forward to. ATM my current sights are on the local SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism) chapter. I've been to a few meetings and I love how it's such a wide variety of people! I'm neither the youngest nor the oldest. Might be worth looking into in your area if you have any interest in history or learning new skills!

As for what's bothering me personally... Lately, I just feel so tired. It's been like this for almost two months, so I'm not sure I can even use the term 'lately' anymore, lol. Things that should be simple or enjoyable have been taking up so much effort. I've put off responding to a friend because of this, and it bums me out because I think they're super cool and want to talk to them more often. My late replies feel like a big excuse and I'm worried they'll think they're the problem when they're not. I just want to shake off this funk for good.
