It's hard for me to open up or to fit in. And I'm not exaclty sure that I feel my own emotions particularly well - I suppress a lot. I learned not to open up or share much about myself because of the combination of shame and assuming that other people don't care, or that whatever I have to share isn't worth listening to. Sometimes I'm not even sure I want to connect, and talking to others makes me exhausted so I tend to retreat to the comfort of solitude. Wherever I go, I'm an alien that doesn't add anything worthwhile to the space
