"should I stop talking to people?"

I posted this is the /adv/ board on 4chan for something to do. I guess because my intention was to get some advice. I copy and pasted the whole thread below. Oddly enough people on /adv/ give you good input  three quarters of the time. The other qourter of the times I post it's either stuff that doesnt help or no one replies.

should I stop talking to people? Anonymous 06/24/23(Sat)17:49:03 No.29206532 Archived

I debating whether or not I should stop talking to people all together. For the past 6 months or so I've been posting ads in /soc/ Discord threads. It really stressed me out and made me feel horrible about myself. Though I dont think it's /soc/ per se, I think it's mostly I just have a hard time communicating with people in general. Though I've always found Discord hard on the head even though I'm used to it now. (Before 7 months ago I mainly used IRC) I have similar problems in RL, on dating apps. I've ghosted pretty much everyone in RL because I cant trust them. Though that was just one person. I never had lasting friendships. I thought of becoming fairly recluse and just talk to people very seldomly. So far some steps I took to mitigate too many people contacting me is I turned off friend requests on discord and turned off message requests so I'm not getting DM's from random people in servers I dont talk in. That got to be a problem. Id get DMs people apparently trying to scam me or random people out of the blue from discord servers i never talked in that just like my pfp. I cant remember what specifically. Also my memory is poor due to medication I take.

only if you want to end up killing yourself. but move on from para-social relationships online thats a waste of time

How is that parasocial? I'm talking to them in DM directly or in channels.

online relationships are always parasocial thats why

dont get discouraged, /soc/ is the worst board on 4chan, literally any other form of social interaction is better than that

If you're unsure of whether it's a good idea or not, you probably don't have the fortitude for it.

The medication clearly isn't helping you
