Do you think bad mental health might be a trait in people with poor social skills? Cuz I have really bad social skills.

      it goes both ways!! having trouble communicating and forming relationships can take a huge toll on your mental health, and bad mental health can make those things more difficult

        @sandboxjoints I guess itā€™s like the snowball effect?? That makes sense to me!

      I dont think there is a relation between those two. I think it's more if you are in a bad mental state then your social skills kinda suffer because you don't want to deal with people

      Depends. Not necessarily. You can reverse it by learning what you need to do to improve your social skills. It also depends on how much you need to reverse damage wise. For example I got in a Lyft and had a really rough time with communicating with my driver and I apologized and let him know that I was JUST getting out after 3 years of being isolated. Never underestimate your resilience! Donā€™t let your resilience be permanently affected. Ask the Holy Spirit to help you.

        @Denotchka Iā€™m so glad youā€™re not as isolated anymore! Honestly I imagine you as a main character of a show šŸ˜‚ Lyft, or struggling to speak to any cab driver, is a comical place to learn social skills and Iā€™ve seen it in soooo many shows! Thx for sharing and believing in me :)

        @Bre19 right? Same. I was in a group call with some friends and I realized that only a few of them have social skills. I didnā€™t realize mine were so bad until I justā€¦it just dawned on me. And maybe the ones with the least social skills struggle the most with feeling connected šŸ˜…
