Sickjoke your right, that would be sociopathic, which Iam in no way. Iam to emotional.
God I didn't even realize the title I types yesterday night when I was mad at this. It just came to my mind after eating a hamburger
If I saw the kid falling I probably wouldn't even go close just turn around, but what I was doing was I at a moment while walking down the street saw the kid lieing there crieing next to me,and i kinda twitched and just got on the other side and a couple of houses later turned around
Nobody please say this was attention seeking, I probably made a lot of people think Iam sick and hate me
Iam just an emotional hysteria, histrionic Personality Disorder, I cried alot over some comments. Iam emotionaly unstablea and easily influenced by peoples opinions

Re: How annoying
Psychedelicious I don´t mean it as offense in any way, but there are threads where you speak about that you can´t feel emotions even if you wanted to, or that you don´t give a **** about animals being killed for food. I remember I was quite shocked when I read this but thought, well maybe she can´t help it, if she doesn´t feel the emotion. Inability to feel emotions might be the part of AS so I wasn´t blaming you, on the contrary I appreciate you for being honest, but I think you could at least be less judgmental when it comes to others having similar problems.
My opinion is, sociopath is a very strong word. I don´t think you´re a sociopath because you wouldn´t feel so much regret and beat yourself about it (unless you pretend it but I think it´s genuine). Shows rather you´re a good person who of course has issues but too many people have, the only difference is they regard themselves pretty normal and sane. I read a book People of the Lie from M. S. Peck which I recommend to everybody - he investigates what is evil. He concludes that usualy the most evil people are those who appear the most sane and socially well adapted. Many so called "normal" people routinely behave carelessly but wouldn´t occur to them even in the corner of their mind that they have done anything wrong or that they might not be OK. Also, they never blame themselves but always the others.
This said, I am not saying it is right the way you behaved of felt at the moment but not judging you either (btw who is so perfect himself to have the right to judge). I think you need to fix yourself first in order to be able to help others.

Yeah that makes sense. You were paralyzed in that moment. Fear dominated your emotions. There was no room for compassion because the fear was so strong. The fact that you feel terrible about it now is probably evidence that you're not a sociopath. You learned your lesson that night, now I hope you'll take action immediately when you see that someone's in danger. And seek help for your SAD because it's beyond the help of any forum.

When I saw the kid the first time I was like a meter close to him and totally freaked out when I looked right and saw him there. I didn't expect that at all. If I saw him from a safe distance crieing I would turn back in a second, or see him falling I would too,
I know I need professional help, I can't make myself get it though. Iam not on those forums for help, more to spend my free time. Sounds stupid, but I am doing some theraphy on my own as you know
Of course I learned a thing from it, it was the first time I can remember since having SA that someone needed help and noone else was there to give it than me. I do find it ****ing weird that noone else came, the houses are so close together where I live and not even the parents got out when the child was crieing in front of their house, or any neighbour,
I also believe I got paralyzed coz I have a lot of traumatic memories when I was young about 6 and my mother had heart problems and many times lied on the ground and couldn't move, I was alone with her and felt horrible, i felt so lost and alone, not knowing what to do. I never ever wished to be in situation like this again,
I got avoidance towards help no doubt coz of this, I never want to be alone with someone who needs help,

Wow, haha.
Regardless, he said it was due to SA and depression he walked through it. OBVIOUSLY he wanted to help. There is no special hidden meaning behind it, it's simply what SA is, it's what defines it, fear.
So because you cannot relate to it, it's wrong for anyone to feel this way? And only your opinion counts?
Why the heck are you even on a forum?
I'm suprised for so much people here claiming to have such severe social phobia to not even know what severe social phobia is.
j_brown2 this should push you to act in the future at least, and you got help anyway, it's really not so far off from what many people without SA would do. Like what Ajuna24 said.

that would m m m m make me happy
kicking the baby would make you happy?!@ are you f***ed? and at the same time your able to whine and winge about it saying how bad you feel
you do need help, if you can't be bothered to help a lil kid then you are self centred, sure S.A inhibited your actions but then you say you woldn't mind hurting the kid even tho you can't even look at him?
please go and seek professional help

What makes me sick is how a lot of you "go with the flow"...you just repeat the opinions by the more "popular Posters" or your chat/online friends views.
j_brown2- I understand what was going on in your head at the time...you realized it wasn't "normal" and you sincerely felt bad...i'm sure in hindsight you wished you had done something to help the kid...don't beat yourself up about it. Judging by some of your posts you have more going for you than you think.
It's sad that even on an SA forum some ppl feel the need to act superior or get all righteous.

I think there’s more than SA involved here. A situation like this is so much bigger than SA, you can’t blame that alone for such a reaction. Social anxiety is a fear of disapproval, and to put your fear of disapproval over the life of someone else is selfish and doesn’t make sense. I refuse to believe this could be the case; we all have a choice.
I bet there’s more to the fact that he has American Psycho as his avatar other than just liking the movie.
With that said, I doubt this even happened. Although, it’s still worth debating as it has everyone split down the middle.

I'm not sure that more than SA would be involved here. I myself would have helped immediately, and I'm not saying it would be right or excused, but I could understand the reason why someone with extreme SA/SP would not want to get involved- by playing a "hero," it would be making yourself the center of attention, which I think is something SAers painstakingly avoid. If this situation really happened, it is sad that this fear overcame his other basic human feelings- however, he did do something about it with telling his mom- he maybe just did not want to be seen as directly involved- even if it would have been "good" attention.

There is a huge range of people in this forum from mentally healthy young people just having difficulty talking to the opposite sex to those who literally can't leave the house and are riddled with OCD, panic attacks and the works. My 2 cents is that we should try our best not to judge others. There’s a difference between constructive criticism and attacking the person.
Having said that, we should realize that most of us here are dealing with our own type of hell and to expect harsh reactions many times. And to be honest, forums like these are not usually the best when you are dealing with a serious issue, so don’t take this forum to heart J_Brown…its just not worth the pain.

Fear is irrational! Fear of other people is irrational and fear of helping an injured/possibly dying baby because you're scared of facing the parents/being blamed/whatever is also irrational. The second one is not only irrational, it is wrong! Very wrong! But that doesn't stop the fear from manifesting itself in some people who suffer badly!
So let's have SOME understanding while acknowledging that it was wrong and giving him constructive advise and not destructive criticism. Everyone makes mistakes...
