But now I'm lying awake, and I'm stressing so much. I'm really scared they don't like me. I'm scared it was all pretend for the sake of being polite. I think I was obnoxious at points, and I said a couple of dumb things. I'm scared they saw me as attention seeking, like I was trying to be the most important person in the room. I'm so ashamed. What do I do with myself? I haven't visited friends in a very long time, so it's been very long since I've had to deal with this feeling

@D-ISS-O-CIA-TED@kbin.social YES! Giving yourself compassion and having patience with yourself is really hard, I struggle with that too. I’ve heard people say treat yourself like you treat others, cause I am usually way more understanding of others than I am myself. It’s not as easy as simply thinking that and it becomes reality, but it is helpful for me to remember and come back to.
