and felt your problems seem so insignificant to somebody else that you feel foolish to bring them up to your therapist? I don't have any 'real' friends, only those I have online. I am bi-polar II and I have relationship problems with the people I've met online. They tell me that I'm
manipulate, play games, looking for attention and childish. Of course, I don't see myself as being any of those things. In fact, some times my friends will tell me something and then later tell me they didn't say that at all. This leads me to think that they are trying to make me feel like I'm crazy and losing it. Oh yea, they also say I'm paranoid. I also analyze everything to death (that one I do believe). Most of these things are the results of posting on message boards.Am I alone in this? I feel so embarrassed to talk to my therapist about problems I have with friends online. I'm afraid I'll come off as looking stupid or childish or an idiot.
What do y'all think? Anybody else have the same problem or am I as crazy as my friends think I am?
