I’m late 20s F. Diagnosed with anxiety when I was in college. Neurotypical, but struggled socially growing up due to a sheltered childhood. Currently I have an active social life but sometimes struggle to keep friends for longer than 2 years.
I feel like I always accidentally annoy the shit out of people. I’m never doing anything on purpose, but either find out after the fact or hear about it after wards. I think its that I’m laughing too much, rambling, being around too long, but im not sure what else. Ive done my best to do better. A friend once told me that she thought I was annoying as teens. I’ve had other people tell me that someone else thinks I’m annoying. I never get a straight answer as to what I specific was doing. And this lack of social awareness in this category is hurting me and my relationships. I get everyone gets on someone’s nerves sometimes. It happens. But I do it to much despite working on it constantly.
How can be better?
