Just going somewhere, even if you know people, is freaking terrifying. But if there's a class or something with structure, suddenly, you're in your element again.

:neuro: Pixy's Journey :v_bi::bear_love: Ello sweet and lovely Friendos 💜 and <a href="https://beige.party/tags/NeuroSpicy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NeuroSpicy</a> 🌶 friends :neurodiversity:Even though I struggle with social things, I do enjoy being online. I've had a few blogs throughout the years, the current one has been quite active since I started on December 14th 2019... I've been sharing a post every day for almost 4 years now! It's kind of an addiction :ablobcatangel:I share many toots here. I love sharing pictures and AI stuffs to the Pixelfed site as well.The thing I do struggle with a lot is: being active towards others.I can share my things. I can answer people's replies to my posts and toots. I can like toots and posts by others. But...As I previously mentioned here, I struggle with replying to other's posts/toots and with boosting their content. Somehow, a like feels less "intrusive". I can do it more from a lurking position... If that makes any sense... 🤔There is no real wrong way to be on Masto, is you're kind and all... You can Toot, like, boost, mute and block as you see fit. And that's wonderful! :dancingbanana: But some days I feel I should be more active towards toots by my friends. And I am trying. :blobcatblush2:Maybe you've seen more boosts by me. If I boost too much, just visit my profile and turn off the visibility of the things I boost (another cool Masto option!). I try to engage more. But I'm often scared I may type "the wrong thing" or get misunderstood. As that's happend many times before... :blobcatsadpleading:If you ever see me boost/reply something that I "could have done better", please send me a kind DM. 😊 I'm trying to learn and some things I guess I'll never fully be able to master... But I love to learn!

JulieI wish I was braver when faced with meeting people. I tried to go to a quilting social event today. I got there, made myself a cup of tea and went to sit with the one lady I recognised. But I couldn’t find her. All the tables were full of people laughing and talking. I put my cup of tea down on a side table and left. I just didn’t know how to join in. I’ve been in tears since because it is just so frustrating? embarrassing? debilitating? not being able to do something so basic. <a href="https://aus.social/tags/shyness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#shyness</a> <a href="https://aus.social/tags/sociallyawkward" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sociallyawkward</a>
