Do I have a psychological problem?
I've been told by my brother that I'm way to much of a antisocial person.......
Just about everyone I come in contact with I get this uncomfortable feeling around them, not shy but just this awkward feeling either in they're presence or engaging in some type of convo with them (and this goes for family and friends).
It's just this uncomfortable feeling to me and this always cuts the convo short between me and them.
I love being by myself but at the same time don't love it if that makes sense...at times I feel as though its time to socialize but most of the times I don't wanna be bothered
I'm shy around people, and I have no interest in meeting new people what so ever
I rarely go out
Most people that I know I almost never say speak to them unless they say something first and I believe some of them even think I'm ignoring them so they walk right by me like I'm some stranger and I do the same right back to them like they're some stranger as well.
Do I need to get out of my shell? What does this say about me?

It means that you love your solitude, you enjoy being alone... Isolating yourself from reality, the horrible outside world. Don't worry, many people are the same (including myself)
You're displaying some signs of anxiety, which could be a contributor to all of this as well.
I think you should go out. I didn't go out for months and it felt so strange after leaving the house. Going out prevents your chances of developing generalised anxiety disorders or any type of social anxiety.
Being unsociable is not a bad thing, we are all different. Some are introverted and reserved in their own thoughts whereas there are extroverts with loud mouths. It depends on your upbringing as well and the way you've been treated and how you've adapted with life. Your personality shapes around your experiences.
No, it doesn't sound abnormal or like you have a psychological problem. If you think/feel that you want to get more out of your shell, then think about ways and the types of people you may want to meet . Maybe people who don't talk too much, or a lot, or are in your interest areas or what you imagine to be ideal.
you may get something out of this at youtube, IDK, danny searle on 'soul types'.
If you want to change some but not a lot or want to resolve any discomfort you have around others, you could use this method to dot hat, emofree.com
Sounds just like me
