What happened to my life?
15/m
I really do need to have any help from anybody willing to answer, anything will do.
A few years ago, i left my old school to go onto Secondary school. Now, at my old school, i had lots of friends and i was really, really happy and nothing was wrong. But when i changed schools, my social life just...collapsed. I've just been finding myself on my own and I guess it was from that point onwards that i began to talk to myself, creating realties in my head and situations and i would act them out (literally), speaking to people who weren't there and i would respond when they replied or asked or even spoke. I'd only recently began to notice this and it's scared me, i mean really. I don't know how to stop and try and erase this 'world' which has formed in my head. It only happened when i am alone.
What's even worse is that i've forgotten how to socilise with my peers and I've wanted to sit with them at luch time and dinner (I board at school), but i can't.
So basically, my question is: how can i get my life back together and have the social life i used to have?

Well, maybe you should consider to talking to people and becoming more sociable.
Be yourself, and just stop with the extra conversations in your head.
Im thinking your just letting this school get the best of you and that you are missing your old school and life and you don't really fit in the new.
Just try, to become sociable
hope i helped

Sometimes, one will go through the actions of doing something, while not really doing it. Or, watch themselves in a movie. This sounds similar.
Recently, I took an online phsycological screening test, and this appeared as part of the result, diagnosed as a "dissasocative disorder", called depersonalization. It doesn't mean that you have it, but I'd reccommend talking to someone.
This could also be a coping mechanism that the interactive part of your brain is using to create friends for you that maybe, even if it isn't your fault, you haven't made on your own.
I'd reccomend looking for friendly people, and the headphone idea is a good one, too.
Everyone has a little social anxiety, so just, kind of, put yourself out there, and take a risk as if you have nothing to lose.
Pray, too.
God bless,

well my advice for you is to get out of your comfort zone and talk to someone you dont even no. Start just by asking somone a question or somthing basic but give the person some space so they dont think your a creepy stalker. GO SIT AT A RANDOM TABLE WITH RANDOM PEOPLE BUT ASK before you sit there so your not rude bring up subjects at your school. After talking to alot of people i think that will help you from talking to yourself and get a therpist if you can to help.

Moving to a different school gave you an excuse to let yourself go. From personal expirience, I kind of know what you're going through. I had to swich schools a lot when I was younger and it was tough but you can't let that bring you down. You need to be yourself again and don't worry so much. Be outgoing, have fun. Life is WAY too short. When you're at school, go up to some people that you might go or not and just talk to them. Get to know one another and get your life back on track. Start doing the things that made you happy. Just because you don't have your old school and old friends does not mean that things won't get better for you. Trust me, they will. You have to be willing to help yourself and start to change. Don't be so down anymore, it's not worth it. As for the talking to yourself, try to keep busy. Listen to an iPod or something but I don't think it's that big of a deal. I hope everything works out for you.
