Why am I so awkward?

I am literally the living ball of awkwardness. No matter where I go or what situation I am in I can't help but feel this uneasiness sprouting within me.

For example, I am just walking in the mall or buying some food in the canteen (tons of peeps can be found in these places) I get totally conscious about myself. Thoughts such as: "I probably look weird and awkward right now so I should hurry up." Or "I should act normal". Another example is when a lot of people are paying attention to me or let's say public speaking. I can't stand their stares and then i end up doing and saying something ridiculous.

I sometimes feel uncomfortable when I am talking to a person (close friends included). I have trouble in coming up with new topics to talk about so I always end up just listening to them and smile (it depends on the situation tho lol)

Does this mean I have a social anxiety? Or am I just an awkward kid?

Don't worry. I can relate to the problems that you're dealing with. I often have difficulty expressing my thoughts vocally and I am very publicly self-conscious, due to my introverted nature and difficulty in communicating my exact thoughts from my brain to my mouth. There may be a pinch of social anxiety, but I don't think your problem is anythin...... 1 reply

I think a lot of that's pretty normal, especially if you're introverted. It feels like I do something weird or awkward enough for me to want to bang my head into the wall at least once a week. Walking in the grocery store, I occasionally start dancing or pretending to be a robot. Listening to music in front of others, I tend to lip sync along and b...... reply

Awkward? I don't know if I am but I have hard time talking to others. My friends first impression at me is that I am cold or snob. I have negative way of thinking. I don't talk to others I mean I can't talk to them first. It is them talking to me first before I talk to them. reply

As others have said you might be showing signs of social anxiety. I can relate to you because I'm that way too. It's hard for me to socialise, period (Except with people I feel actual comfortable with wich are only close friends and some friends and family.), and I really hate ''social'' situations in general. Be it a party, hangout with a big grou...... reply
