I am terrified of calling people up on the phone

Um, not really. I just think the flirty bantering you two is too cute.

Oooh, wait, I think I hear wedding bells...:love:

We make out on street corners too if you're into that

Ihate it when people call me. I'm not good with talking to people without seeing them...:sick:

When i have to, I usually sue IM and Text. :nice:

My psych teacher (who is a genius) says he thinks for the most part it's diagnosed as ADD when it's just sleep deprivation. Not saying it doesn't exist, just maybe not as much as people think.

Well I'd agree with your teacher to a point- it's massively over-diagnosed mainly by overworked teachers who want to control restless students with drugs. And very often ADD-like behavior is a combination of terrible diets and poor sleep patterns.

 

But people who really have it genuinely think in a different way in general. They're almost always very artistic, which I think is a clue. And are often better off without medication as long as they aren't being told to sit still behind a desk. (I haven't used ritalin in years- I reacted terribly to it.) For instance, if you arrange things neatly on a shelf, I can't find anything. If you scatter it all over the floor, I can find things in an instant. If I go about something in a scattershot way, I can focus for hours and remember everything I'm doing. If I have to follow a list or do something in order I can't think at all. Thus brainstyle.

How original.

I don't remember these occasions. Why do I block out the good stuff? :disappointed:

Yup, in that case it's a genuine difference in how the brain operates. I get it.

Maybe it has something to do with the security of anonymity, and fear of the unfamiliar? It uses different parts of the brain, so maybe that's part of it too??

Gosh, people keep saying they're weirdos or freaks. Since so many are saying that, guess what?... it means you're not a weirdo or freak.

 

I used to be the same way, but it just got better over time as I did it more often (partly because of working at a store in the mall and having to call customers, I just got used to it).

 

Plus, I followed my own advice... see my siggy...

I hate phones. I'd rather talk in person so I can see them.

Love you man :clap:

 

Finally a real human being comes here, besides me.

I like it when the computer or router is down, so you call for help and have to talk to somebody that is in some other country and doesn't speak good English...that's funnnn!

:laugh3: (I probably shouldn't laugh), but I can relate to that - "hello, I'm from Bangalore, India, and I'm calling about your current service."- but on the other hand, if I had to speak the native tongue of that part of India, I would surely by laughed at much more heartily!

I'm not terrified of calling people up.

I was terrified before...regarding those things; I'm just not used to it if I'm calling a stranger, but when I'm calling someone I know I have no problem with that. I learned to overcome the akwardness when I started calling my uni's operator, a telephone company, and a bank.

I get this all the time, especially when I have no idea who's gonna pick up.

I get it when I'm getting a call from someone i don't know too. It's funny cos when I'm at work and the phone rings I just pretend to not hear anything :lol:

Yeah i hate it,unplug the damm thing most days.

Sounds like someone has a bad case of phonophobia!!:stunned:

Phonowhat? :lol:

Phonophobia.

 

want me to spell it out for you

 

Phonetically?:rolleyes:
