Does it count as social anxiety if you dont feel anxious but just awkward? If yes where is the line drawn between being introverted and having social anxiety?
@@paws27 Do you overthink/analyze all the time in social situations? Do you feel the need to "perform" to a high degree in social situations? Do you feel awkward and unskilled in social situations? If so, you're probably socially anxious/phobic. Does it impact your life (e.g. do you tend to avoid social situations)? If not then you're probably not venturing too far into disorder territory and it's just the way that you are; if yes, then you should talk to someone who isn't a rando on the internet and get some actual insight specific to your situation.

Same here; not tryna label NL, but he’s said in the distant past he has anxiety (at one point he specifically stated that there was about a 6/10 underlying anxiety at all times) and has referenced anxiety in social situations. Maybe he doesn’t want to label it or whatever. I’m just saying what he said sounded a lot like anxiety to me. I’m not a doctor; just someone who’s been suffering from it for almost two decades now and has been watching NL for at least a decade. I always found comfort in how he could be so charismatic and charming in his streams and videos but still have similar issues to myself and that gives me a bit of hope. Apologies for the ramble and didn’t mean to diagnose someone else. Just saying I related to him in many contexts.

Looking at the vod (the 31st) he unlocked the new character and had two failed 10 minute runs he cut out of the beginning of this. Looking at the highlights from the day, he has 3 Vampire Survivor markers. "How to Unlock the Secret Character" was the first section, 30 minutes. But this video is the second segment despite the title.
I've heard a good way to make small talk is to give an emotion about a thing. That's why people talk about the weather, because how you feel about it is pretty safe ground.
Man now Im kinda upset, because I got trunked for my comment where I said that what he expressed kinda sounded like SA, but this person literally called his three awkward episodes "crippling social anxiety" and they remain yet un-trunked. No fair dude.
Sucks killing Death is the only way to unlock the other secret character. Currently the only way to get it is to edit the game file and give one of the weapons insane damage to kill him.

Hi Egg! I have a video/stream idea for you. There is a developing community for record runs in the game and one of them is most gold per run. I currently hold the record with 20.2k gold, not to brag, but just to say I know a thing or two about it. If you are interested I'd love to help you set up a run for it and see how far you can get! Or if that's too time consuming, I also upload all runs and made a guide recently.
I find it incredibly hard to just start talking to people out of the blue aswell. Essentially impossible for me to just start a conversation with a stranger, but if someone spoke to me I would be fine talking.

incredible banter this episode
I have social anxiety and that’s exactly the type of stuff I think about during conversations. Not a big deal but that’s what it is.
Nl has perfectly encapsulated every social thought I’ve ever had. Overthinking everything. This man is a scholar and a thinker
A lyrical genius. A motherfrickin wordsmith
Definitely missing some progress between this and the last video.
I love that NL always moves clockwise around enemies, making the bible really do fuckall.
Gg comment. I just learned a mistake i was making
It's because going anticlockwise is a thing of the Devil. And as we all know NL is a Catholic who reads his, not heretical, Bible everyday.
TIL, good tip
