Tabitha- I hear you... I'm have the same problems. Talking to people, they seem to hear one thing, though I'm relaying something completely different. Keep this in mind... people who do not understand the complexities of those whom may suffer from social anxiety, depression, Personality problems and so forth, aren't going to be the most patient people in the world. Think of it as though you know something that they don't- you know that they are probably not going to get the full meaning of what you are talking about. Ask them lots of questions to reiterate what you are saying, for example, "I'm having trouble this form I need to fill out. Why can't I just call them?" The person you are say that too probably has a million questions like, "what form, what do you mean" most people won't ask you, they will just get frustrated. So ask them. "Do you know what form I'm talking about?" "Do you know of a person I can get in contact with to assist me better with this?" It takes patience, and it takes some practice, but sooner or later, people will start see where you are coming from.

I hope this helps. :)

> I'm in a weird state. It seems like all my interactions with people are creating miscommunication. A lot of it is text and email like here which I know is notorious for miscommunication, but it's happening in my face to face and phonecalls too. It seems like I can't say anything or hear anything without a misunderstanding happening. My mind is going nuts trying to figure it out-- am I suddenly not seeing things clearly? Is everyone hypersensitive this time of year? It feels like I'm in a strange dream where everything is just a bit skewed.
