Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
This may sound selfish, but I need to say it and hopefully get some good advice.
Today I met Ian Somerhalder. He is an idol of mine, I watch his shows and I couldn't believe I got the opportunity to do a meet and greet even if I was by myself.
Still, when I walked in (this was $100 :/) I was my usual awkard self. Alot of others were getting actual conversations with him but I just got a hi and are you having fun. We took a selfie and I didn't get a full one like I wished. It's selfish but I feel like everyone else was talking to him and he was interested in them. But for me he I felt like he just thought I was an awkward kid though I'm almost 18.
Bottom line is I stood in line for an hour by myself so excited having paid so much, but then I leave and I feel regret and depression the rest of the day and night. I often feel this way like I don't make an impression on anyone.
I know he's a celebrity, but I can't believe I blew it. :(
This will boost your confidence.It seems like a confidence issue.You are
soooo cute.I mean wow you met Ian- I believe he was an actor in Lost.
Your perception of the meeting was authored by you and No he did not think
you were awkward but because you may have let off a vibe that you were
nervous and when people sometimes sense this they will back off to make
you not feel more uncomfortable.Funny thing is you may have reminded him
of awkward moments he too felt at one time in his life, Omg you have so
many more moments ahead of you that will yield a different result that you are happy with. Trust me 18 years old are Awkward Years for many. It is Normal.As you focus on yourself and becoming great at skills that you love-Learn to Master them- this boosts confidence.When you pour Into your self
in this way it becomes easy being around others and the conversations will just Roll off your lips. Congrats again on meeting your idol.Hugs xoxo.
