I come to this site because i'm vulnerable.

People think its funny to call me names and laugh at me for getting wound up.

If you have social anxiety why call others names and be nasty!?

I had problems in chat, and i want people to know that if you laugh and call others names ITS BULLYING.

I've been bullied and i honestly dont like it when someone tries to put me down.

Please make this a safe place.

Who on here is doing that? Not that I doubt you, but I've never seen anything that would suggest bullying but maybe I'm not looking in the right places.

That's weird. Just keep up what you're doing and call them out on it. Screw 'em!

Examples?

Maybe they feel better by putting you down?

You don't need to take **** from people here. You can always report 'em.

And yes, it happens here.

No offense but if you play the victim all the time don't be shocked when people victimize you. I think it's all right to let your SA effect you but you need to learn how to distinguish your distorted thoughts from "normal" thoughts. There will always be mean people out there and to expect that to change is unrealistic.

I would need examples because there are two sides to everything.

I agree that name calling, etc is uncalled for. Most people on SAS seem to be nice, but it happens. You would think people with sa would understand what it feels like to be picked on, though. SAS seems to be very good at eliminating trolls and flamers on the forums. The chatroom seems a little more lax

I said that confidence is overrated when it comes to attracting women.

Alot of people mistake confidence for arrogance/jerk behaviour.

Some guy called me "weenie man" because of my inability to get a girlfriend.

I dont like people putting me down in front of a crowd. Even if its just online.

Then another guy kept repeating several times "what if some one calls you a d***head, what would you do then"

And was laughing because i cannot take criticism.

This is a SUPPORT site. I'm here because i cannot deal with life, and i'm socially anxious.

I dont care if anyone thinks i'm "playing the victim", i'm just here for help. And some people think its okay to destroy my confidence and laugh at me!
