Hypersensitive
I am hypersensitive and hypervigilant these days of offending people. I don't dare to look at people and don't dare to interact with people.... Im afraid they will think I'm rude or a bad person...I dunno how can I live like this anymore...it's very very bad...
Hello, I am sorry to hear of what you are going through. That sounds awful. I went through something similar where I had become extremely sensitive to curtain things. It was debilitating. I found a good therapist and worked through it though. Don't give up, lots of people go through things like this. For me personally, something that really helped a lot was acknowledging I had a very poor model of the world in my head with respect to some things. After that I purposefully thought of something more accurate that fixed many of my mental mistakes. And then whenever I would become scared, I'd stop and ask myself, of these two models of the world, which is a more accurate way of interpreting these events? I would do the thing I was scared of doing and pay close attention and interpret what happened according to the more accurate model. Over time, the stress went down a lot and I got back to life. Try to inject doubts into the negative thinking. Most people want to get along and be mutually happy. I hope that was helpful. Good luck, wishing you good things ahead.
