It probably is normal but I want to know who else feels this way and how you deal with it? Cause its not a fun place to be in. I just feel like I'm the talk of everything and I'm probably not. I just want to know what is everyone thinking and saying and once I know, I can go off with my life because I'm secure with whats going on now. But for now, I feel like everyone knows me and therefore people act differently around me. That does happen and its weird. I want to see myself in a show so I know whats going on and see that what I'm feeling isn't really happening; no one is talking about me, no one cares, etc. That would make me feel much better. Sometimes I see people in the same place as I am such as having awkward moments with people but they seem fine and walk away. I try to do the same but in my head I feel like I left a bad impression and now people are talking about me when probably they wont even remember or care. Who else feels like the whole world or just a certain group of people are thinking about them as if theyre paranoid?

    I usually seem to end up somewhere near the social centre of whatever group I'm in (not deliberately, it just happens, even when I don't want it to) but my feelings are completely the opposite of yours. It never crosses my mind that I get discussed and it's always a surprise when someone tells me it happens. Unless I'm involved in some controversy, I can't see what about me is even worth discussing. But then I remind myself that I've had private discussions about people in my groups too. It just seems weird to think there's a conversation about me. I really never consider it. Because of that, it's not a problem. Maybe this approach is easier? After I leave this story, I know I'll go back to the view that nobody ever mentions me even though, logically, they probably do.
