so me my brother tells me its not my social anxiety that makes me hate people & that its just me. you see, he doesnt like people normally so he thinks im like that too, but im scared, its not that i dont like them.. its just that i automatically hate people cause they talk to me &i dont want to cause i get scared er just cause theyre around i get anxiety, so i hate them. Sometimes im to myself &im mad cause people are around&i wanna be alone but at the same time im observing them &im like theyre actually cool, why do i hate them? like yesterday after church i texted him to check if he was home. he was.. & so were our friends. &i was like ughhhhhh tell em to leave. I was trying to figure out why i hate our friends most of the time & i couldnt find anything i disliked about them.. So does social anxiety make you hate people?

ive just recently been diagnosed with sa & im still trying to figure it out.

it's because when we are around people that make us anxious,we try to 'modify' ourselves to get them to like us/not hate us and that causes incredible inconvenience,like 'i need to find the money,omg i'm taking too long,WHERE IS THE MONEY,i'm at the cashiers already,i'm stalling,she probably hates me,oh god i look like such an idiot,look how clumsy i am'then you get back home and remember how hard it was to do such a simple task,and you feel exhausted and you feel self loathing because you felt like a loser,so you blame everyone else,who was in your perception watching you and judging you and making you feel so bad about yourself,so you get angry and hate them..and distance yourself,you need to understand it's a trick your brain does intending to keep you away from people,nobody forced you to be somebody else,no one wants you to be somebody else,but if your subconscious makes up all these hypothetical stories,it protects you from making friends-from the possibility of getting hurt and being unable to defend yourself.

I believe I project the way I feel about myself onto other people so if I am having a day where I am mad at the world, I know I need to look at what is going on inside my head to get to the root of the anger......When I was depressed and anxious all the time, I hated the majority of people.....At this point in my life I feel much happier with who I am as a person and don't tend to have so much anger towards others.

There are times when i find myself hating people becuase i feel that they hate me, like paranoia, does it feel a bit like that? Of course your going to dislike people becuase they make you feel anxious, its human nature :)

The natural reason why we hate people is because people like us never stop smiling and laughing. Their life is easy and joyful. Giggle, kiss, hug, love!

It never stops around me. I have a slight belief that our 'lifestyle' breeds from watching too much TV - the morning shows, etc. As students at uni, we all said goodbye to the inbred gayness of TV, and decided to live properly, without that life role figure of the square box.

yes many times when SA is at its worst, i think the worst things you can imagine when I see someone I don't like. My subconscious does it.
