I've said before that while I was growing up I believe I was on the wrong meds for me. While they controlled my seizures for the most part (I still had a few), the meds made me very "druggy" (if that's a word). I was on Phenobarb, Tegretol, Dilantin, Depakote, and probably a couple others during that time (not all at once, though). I believe that my studies - as well as my social skills - suffered because of that.
I even had a girl practically throw herself at me saying she wanted to be my girlfriend. I was skeptical because she was a popular girl and I thought 'Why would she want to be with me?' among other things, so I told someone that I worked on the farm with about it. He said that he knew her and that she was fairly promiscuous. I wasn't sure if he was telling the truth or not, but I took his advice and dumped her. I think that was one of the stupidest mistakes I ever made. But I digress.
Since then, Ive been very introverted when it comes to making friends, and have never had anything close to a signifigant other. The only way I ever met anyone new is if someone else introduced me to them. I'd like to get to know more people on my own, but I guess I've become too clueless as to know how to go about it. Any ideas?
