I get anxious around new people

I get nervous when I meet someone

I’m afraid to start a conversation with people

I’m not comfortable around people

I don’t look people in the eye when I talk to them

I don’t like when someone gets close to me

I can’t stand people who talk too much

I don’t like to be around people

I don’t like to make friends

I choose the people I talk to carefully

I like to ignore people

I’m afraid of being rejected

I don’t like to say hello to people 

I fear they’ll ignore me

I get frustrated

I get irritated very easily

I think too much

I worry about everything

I wash my hands constantly 

I like things to be symmetrical

I don’t like when people don’t put things back

The way they found them

I’m not pretty

I can’t stand the sight of me

I don’t know what I want out of life

I’m not talented

I have nothing to offer the world

Will you

Accept me 

As I am
