Nugget, the painfully shy childhood - we are the same person

I was just like you, mom & dad and 4 yrs old brother and always painfully shy. People would ask me a question and I'd hide behind my mom and she'd say, "she's shy". Spent most of my life feeling different from everyone else, wishing I was more outgoing and socialable. When I did get a close friend they meant the world to me. Then they'd move away or something would happen and have to find another good friend. Having this illness just makes us feel more alone and friendless and sort of like an oddball, doesn't it? Like we really needed this! My closest family and friends seem pretty supportive but I know deep down they just don't get it and probably think I'm being a hypochondriac and that makes you sometimes doubt yourself. It wasn't until I came to this board that I realized so many other "normal" people also have this and IT IS NOT IN OUR HEADS and we always have understanding friends here, and that means an awful lot!! . Other than the shy part and a few minor things I wouldn't change my childhood or family for the world. I wish I had the nerve to put my photo here and would love to if it was just us, but I can't for a couple of reasons but I'm smiling at you!
