When it comes to talking to people, I usually have no issue doing it, online at least. In real life I'm socially awkward as mentioned before so I've tended to make people think I'm stand-offish or offended by everything before. Once I get to know someone I'm usually really crazy and I try to make my friends smile by being weird or attempting to be funny. If you guys would like to connect with me, I have a few social media sites you could do so. For one, that I use a lot is Instagram. I have multiple instagram accounts: @sykobear, @okfrnk, and @memetyler.

Another social media site I have is Twitter, @ATL_Infinity_ because of the band All Time Low, I show up with a picture of a guy drumming with the screen name "Spooky Jim" with two hearts around it. I have email of course which you can find me at diamond7901@gmail.com or capnmichie@gmail.com. If you want to connect on an emotional level instead of using a social media site and know who I am and relate to me, I'm going to put down a few things about me that may be interesting to you. For example, I've always been empathetic, which means if my friend is sad, I end up being sad without knowing why. If my friend or family is angry, I tend to be too because I can feel the way they're feeling towards something or someone. A lot of people are empathetic on some level except maybe sociopaths or psychopaths, but there are few who are more empathetic than others, and my mom and I tend to be. Secondly, I have depression, social anxiety, and this thing called a tic disorder. None of the three are easy to live with, but if you guys have any of these, please remember that there are good things in life and it may not be easy all the time but telling yourself you'll get through it can help a lot, and working hard to fulfill your dreams and fears and anything else you want to do will give you a better mindset about a lot of things. Do things you're passionate about so it takes your mind off of anything you wouldn't like to think about. One example is music for me. Sometimes listening to music doesn't help, but singing it with my guitar can help me get emotions out with the lyrics I sing and writing down my feelings also helps me. I don't share them with anyone, and you don't need to. It's just a way to vent without having to tell someone, unless of course, you'd like to. When I said I was musically inclined I meant it, my life revolves around it, and it's what I want to do for the rest of my life.
