Hey guys. Just wanna rant about my generally cowardly behavior. I am someone who has social anxiety and as such, i can't actually make friends very well. The few "friends" i have at work are fucking assholes and always make me the butt of their jokes whenever we hangout. This is hence why i try to avoid confrontations and arguments with people whenever possible to make my life in my work/school easier. However there are certain times where i couldn't bear others' insults towards me, and almost wanted to burst, but more often then not i still clenched my fists and grinded my teeth. Even if i managed to get an outburst on a few rare occasions, i chickened out for fear of consequences and apologized to the person after that for losing control of my emotions. I am such a fucking wimp. But i can't stand the fear and anxiety of being bullied and ostracized should i stand up for myself. Should i change my attitude or remain a coward? I feel like this is not right being such a pussy...... Need some advice, thanks!
