" Hi, yes I know the feeling well, I am the same, I have had things said to me which I don't like to hear and words that have hurt me inside, so I always think before I speak as I don't want to hurt peoples feelings, I even lie if I say what i'm thinking it will have a big effect on how it will make that person feel, people who just say what they are thinking are cruel and don't care if it upsets anyone but what they have said, and need to have it done back to them and see how they like it, "

" I'm the same. I'm lucky I have a twin, cuz then she talks and no one notices I'm not talking. I hate being in big groups cuz it makes me so anxious and nervous that I just want to get away. And if someone doesnt like me it puts me in a bad mood for days because Im so hurt. anyways, let me know if you need some support. "
