Something is wrong with me

[klunderbunker]

So on AIM, due to some imbeciles that I want nothing to do with anymore, I have one person on my buddy list. She's one of my oldest friends and someone that I've never had any real issues with. Literally she's the only person I talk to on there. For some reason when I've been getting on, I get almost scared to death to get on for some reason. It's almost like anxiety about getting online. Any ideas as to what in the hell is wrong with me?

No idea...Sounds rough :\

 

[SavageTaker]

Do you know why you feel anxiety?

 

[klunderbunker]

Not a clue. I have zero issues here with you guys. It's AIM that for some reason has me actually sick at my stomach.

Instant messenger phobia?

If I was you, I would find somewhere else to chat with her, maybe MSN? At least you won't have to get on AIM anymore and won't feel the way you do.

Is it something to do with her? Like you're nervous she might actually speak with you? Maybe you're ashamed of something going on at the moment, and really don't want her to find out about it.

I dunno, maybe you have some subconscious fear that something will happen between you and your friend to upset her, or something to do with her being the only person on your buddy list..... the mind is a strange and wonderful thing, and unfortunately i'm not an expert.

What ST said Just use a different IM, no point using one that makes ya feel bad KB. You of all people don't deserve to feel shit getting online!

Just use MSN or something, if there's only one person you want to speak with.

Don't think so. I've known her for years and she's one of my closest friends. Every time I get on she asks why I'm not on as much because she misses talking to me.

Hmmm...well, I remember a time when I was like that with Facebook. I was literally afraid of being on Facebook, because it meant I would interact with this chick. It was more of a "I'm afraid of what she'll say" thing. Like I was afraid she would ask a question, I would answer it, and it would freak her out. Or she'd be mad at me.

...But from what it sounds like, the anxiety is directly related to her. Maybe it's the "you're never on, and I miss talking to you" stuff. You don't know if that means anything, or if you even want it to mean anything. Relationship stuff, you know?

As odd as it sounds, that's almost exactly right.

Don't think so but it's possible I guess. Never thought about it but perhaps.

Maybe you are falling in love with her and afraid to talk to her because of it. Happens alot, fall in love with a friend and start acting weird and feeling weird around them.

 

[klunderbunker]

I think that might be a stretch. I haven't talked to her much lately due to this and some other factors.

Actually, the more I think about it the more I think I've got it. I appreciate this though.

Rare for me to hear. Appreciate that.

I was the same way with MySpace. I literally deleted an account that was one of the first 1000 on Myspace. I feel like shit for doing that now, but at the time, felt it was the only thing to do. Fucked up, right?

Fucking girls and the psychoses they bring about. If I didn't like them so much, I'd fucking become a priest.

..Oh, and the not being Catholic thing kinda hinders that plan. But other than that.

That and hopefully not liking little boys.


Good luck with your problem though, KB. I have no other help other than what everyone else has posted.
