Ever go through one of those, inactive social periods?

[KimuraWannabe116]

I have been a relatively quiet person when it comes to social interactions in the past 8 months. I had actually, last year, been a pretty social person, but since I had moved to a new school around the 3rd marking period of last year, is when I had started becoming less active socially. Im not saying that this is the total reason I am now like this, but it is most likely a contributing factor. But nothing at my new school is affecting me in anyway, and if it were, it would be in a positive way. I spent most of my time these days, either on the computer researching things, or in my room fixing stuff up or writting stories. Though this does not really bother me that I have become less active around peers/friends. I guess this is one of those times I want to spend time alone.


My questions are, have you been through one of these periods when you suddenly just become less active in the social environment? And how did it make you feel?

My whole life and it made me feel isolated, though over time I've come to appreciate isolation.

Yeah I go through stages on and off where I just can't be bothered socialising, I'd rather stay at home and do things by myself like draw or go on the computer or read... There'll just be months when I just don't socialise and I'm fine with it, I consider my self a relatively independent person, and it's less stressful in a way not socialising ;P But yeah, I always thought I was weird but I guess it must be kind of normal :)

It's started three or four years ago. I got bullied pretty badly in school, and all the while my life was crashing down around me. All of it combined ruined my ability (and desire) to socialize with others and it's only gotten worse since.

Nowadays I only socialize if I have no choice. Otherwise, I keep to myself at all costs. I was always a quiet kid, but the last few years turned my bashfulness into something much worse.

I have been a relatively quiet person when
it comes to social interactions my entire life.

I never talk to people in real life, unless it is entirely necessary.

A bit now and then, yes. Less than ever before though. I know I'm going into it when it happens, and I'm ok with it, I just make sure I don't stay in it.

im actually going through one of those right now, i live on a farm way out of the way of anyone so it makes thinks a bit harder anyway but it does make me sorta feel alone. its so far away to anything that i dont see it changing anytime soon until i get my own apartment haha its just something sometimes people go through, try to find friends with vehicles, it makes life easier haha
