hey guys, thanks for posting. Believe me I have been through the whole thing of its not me its them idea that you just explained, but after all that I have experienced in the last few months since i have really been feeling better, I don't think that is possible. You see, the customer service job I work at is at the horse races, where people come to get drunk, have a good time, win some money, etc. I do observe people while I'm there, and they are happy and in their own groups and get excited about winning some money and so on. But when they are around me its like they become instantly serious, anxious or even angry sometimes, even when I'm smiling with them and trying to be nice to them, or making a joke with them, they still treat me weird. I watch the people I work with and how they interact with the customers and they do the same as me, but recieve a much better response, and the customers love talking to them, even giv them tips. Its not that I get jealous or anything, I don't really care how customers treat me, however this response I get is reflected on pretty much all aspects of my social life, and everyone treats me this same way. I particularly notice it with my friends and people I was close with once, they have been treating me really weird, without any respect at all, and I have noticed that they want to be around me less and less.

So I have virtually built up a hard body of evidence to plead my case that its definely something I'm doing, but of which I do not know what! And the best response I have got from people when asking them what it is, are that "I look angry" or "I look anxious". I certainly don't feel these emotions when I display them...
