What has happened to my personality ?

Question

I have problem with confrontation i seem to crumble when i get lectured or a telling off, i used to speak my mind but had a bad patch of depression and BDD which resulted in me become reclusive for a few years with a few days outside here and there.

Since ive came out of my reclusion, i am the opposite of who i used to be, im quiet and tend to avoid confrontation, im not as quick to comeback and i also feel ive lost my charm/humour and never say what i want to say through fear of it not being funny or boring or getting shouted at .

i tend to mumble a lot now and speak quietly and take things to heart and overly sensitive, and instead of slagging someone back lash out with my fists.

tonight i went for a drving lesson and never felt comfortable with the instructor i had, and instead of saying no to more lessons when he was talking about " next week we shall be" i just nodded and went along with it.

now im doing two lessons next week which i dont want to do and will need to get someone else to call up and cancel them for me as i cant bring myself to to do it.

i am generally happier than i have been in years im in a job i love doing ( postman) but only happy when im out posting and not in the sorting office where im always on my toes.

Hey I dont have an answer for you saadly but I just wanted to let you know you are definitely not alone. I think i have the same exact problem as you . I also went through a state of depression and some kind of feeling crazy phase which lasted for quite a while maybe a year or something like that. i dont know what happened exactly. I just know i just started thinking too much about stuff and then i found problems in everyone and i became anxious and terrible and depressed . this all happened during sophmore year and junior year of high school. I used to be completely happy and had a bunch of friends i got along with everybody pretty much. i was funny nice and fun to hang out with and stuff like that. i always had a problem with speaking in front of class though but im pretty sure something more serious happened later. I am now graduated from high school and am 17 but although i feel way better than i did, i still feel very worrysome about things. i just cant be myself. i definitely dont want medication. maybe hypnosis i dont know. i think i can figure it out eventually. its all psychological i know. im pretty sure about that. i just want to be healed from this before college starts because i dont want to have another insecure experience at college. anyway this isnt about me but i thought maybe i could at least relate to you. alright bye. good luck! if you figure out the answer please tell me

Answer 3

You could have GAD(generalized anxiety disorder).I used to hate to be in crowds or around people.I always got nervous and didnt talk much cause I was afraid of what others would think.And I would worry alot about stuff until one day I had a panic attack in the dollar store!!If you can imagine.So thats what I was diagnosed with.I feel much better now and Im not afraid to let people know whats on my mind.That could also come with age to,I dont know,but talk with your doctor.Good luck.
