I take a lot of things seriously. I might freak out at something that was not intended to make fun of me, but as a joke. I remember a couple days ago my dad was joking around with me and I freaked out at him. He said he thinks my problem is that I think everybody is making fun of me when they're not. He said to joke back, but I told him I punch people instead, and that concerned him. I just hate when people joke around like that. I just wish they wouldn't even talk to me. I want to be alone for the rest of my life, because I don't think I'll ever have someone that loves me besides my parents. I don't want to get married because of commitment, my seriousness, and my occasional violence. I am also very shy and I don't like to do things that involve people I don't know. I don't like to talk that much. Do I have a social disorder or what?

I think you need to talk to your doctor ..he may be able to guide you towards seeking some sort of help...maybe anger management....what you describe does seem like overreacting to situations...no good anyone saying lighten up you obviously cant help it...please see your doctor and get on the path to recovery...

The same thing happens to me. when boys that i havent gotten into fights with before (verbal not pysical) will joke around with me, i think that they are making fun of me because i take everything seriously. I personally have non-verbal disorder which is a learning disibility that affects your organization, how you learn things, and you take everything seriously. My case is verry mild like i just cant classify when people are making fun of me (and i have the organization part and learning part too), but some people who have it are like robots and talk in one tone of voice, or they will jump off a bridge if you tell them to. This may not be what you have but i would look into it. Or that may just be your personality, you dont like being joked around with. I am also verry shy and i have a hard time reaching out to people. Even in stuff that i have been doing for many years (i have been doing one of my hobbies for 10 years) and as a 13 year old that is a problem because you are trying to make friends at my age. When people make fun of me i will hit them hard. I also enjoy being alone. I would talk to your parents about this. It helped me. they will work with your teachers and other school people.

Hi,
Im not saying this is your problem but…….. My brother was very much the same, and after he found help he was told he had depression, Since then he has been taking a medication that helped with his moods, it changed the way he felt towards other people and being in public, I have to say there was a BIG improvement, im not saying everyone who feels this way should take medication but if you seek the right help you can find out what is going on. Don’t feel alone because there are a lot of people out there who feel and have felt the same way, there is help for those who seek it! :-)

you might want to get that checked out. and think about it, do you honestly want to be alone when you get older? i fall into some extremely antisocial ruts, but then ill ask myself "would i really be happy if i was completely alone in this house? if my parents and sister never came home again and it was just me in the world?" and then i admit to myself that no, that is not what i want at all and as much as i try to make myself and others think otherwise, i really do need the people that love me. i am also afraid of commitment so i dont know what to tell you there. maybe you just need more confidence in yourself. that way it will be easier to just shrug off what others say to you. now if i only knew how to get more confidence, then we would both be set...

i'm 50 years old and i've learned that when i respond like that to people around me, it's because i've been hurt and i've kept the hurt inside. it's like poking at an infected wound - it hurts and you instantly draw back, to protect the sore place.
i've also learned what helps, and that is to figure out what a person has done to hurt me or make me angry, and then look at that situation from all sides. try to figure it out from all angles. and then... forgive.
the 3rd step is to try and learn NOT to be quiet and not trust people, so that the next time somone says something that bothers or hurts you, you will care enough about them and yourself to talk with them about it. people in relationships need to talk, to learn about each other, always. It never stops. and the more you learn about someone else, the better you can love them and be a freind to them. and them, to you.

It sure sounds like you have a lot of stress you are dealing with.
Yes, you might seek some professional help. And, a friend would be good.

I grew up with it too. Learn to walk away. I found I had better control by not reacting and just walking away, then the jokester would be concerned.
