Feeling Embarrassed When Compared to Others

Jasmine

I'm 26 and started a new job in November which is a job share, I have half an hour of cross over time with my counterpart on a Friday and I always end up feeling ashamed seeing how well she interacts with others and how well liked she is, knowing that I don't chat to the same level she does or laugh along with people. Does anyone else have have anxiety while they watch others interact because they wish they knew the right things to say?

  • I don't know how many people still play card games, but a personality is a bit like a bridge or rummy hand of playing cards.

    There is some stuff as an aspie that we are rubbish at, and some stuff at which we are really good. I.E. you'll hold some weak cards and some strong cards.

    Learrn to "play" yourself right, and you can beat much more attractive or capable personailities occasionally in contests, and that's as good as anyone manages.
