Anti-Social
February 23rd, 2010
If you haven’t heard from me in a few days it’s probably because I’m going through an antisocial phase where the very idea of communicating with other people is painful. I haven’t been logging on to social networks, messenger, and I’m almost thankful my cell is on the fritz. It’s nothing against everyone else- I just need a mental reboot from time to time.
Around people- I get tempted to help, occasionally I feel obligated to help, and if they start talking to me first I have trouble ending the conversation when I don’t feel very into. The solution? Become a hermit for a few days, leave my internet off, watch movies, and try to clean my house.
So, that’s what’s up with me. I have a lot of things I’m thinking about right now, a bit of anxiety, and a lot of other junk. It’s not going to get me down but if I seem a little standoffish I apologize now- I just need a break.
*hugs* take care of yourself. i’ve, no more than one occasion, posted on facebook that i didn’t want to talk on the phone right now! we all need to get away from people from time to time or at least i do :)
Most indeedy! You’re probably quite a bit like me as far as social is concerned- very social online, lots of projects and people you try to keep up with and then suddenly the social meter just dries up and you don’t want anything to do with anybody. :P Lol. But I’m back now- I think. We’ll see if I’m still around by the time the week’s out or if I’ve curled back up in my shell again. ;)
everyone needs time to be alone – to recharged, to be still, to be relax or whatever. so what you did is perfectly normal. hope everything’s fine for you.
Oh, yeah. I’m alright. Recharging aside this is just something I do from time to time. It’s either a few weeks of quiet or a few weeks of depression. I’d rather the quiet so I just disappear for awhile. :) I’m not a very social person by nature in real life but I keep a lot of social appointments online and after awhile it just wears me down. That and I’d gotten sick, I’m on the getting better side of things now. As you read my blog from time to time you’ll see how the mood goes up and down.
~Peace!
