Do you ever feel invisible?

Give me the link and I'll talk to you.^^

Great topic - I can completely relate. I feel both self-conscious that everybody's noticing how uncomfortable I feel, while at the same time being mostly ignored by the entire world. For instance, I was at a group therapy session last week, and the group leader called on all the other people except me. I had a meltdown and stormed out. Even waiting in line people will pretend I'm not there and go in front of me. I could go on with all the examples. But it'd make me more depressed than I already am.

i can walk next to my "friends" for an hour and they dont notice me!
and im over 6ft tall!

yeah at times i feel invisible, but then the "real world" and i just don't get along, at parties etc i just end finding a nice quiet corner somewhere and just get quietly drunk cause i dont talk to anyone plus again i'm freaked bout melting down , because not even me own family seem to notice me too offen cept for me sister, father and Grandparents, plus i almost melted down in a shop when i was out with with some good friends of mine yesterday, just needed to just get out of the bloody place

I often feel invisible, It's because i'm too quiet though and I tend to sit in the corner alot

i know the feeling

I feel invisible often, both online and in real life. I feel ignored often

I do that, too, someone will give me a strange look and I'll realise that I've been staring at them, and I think, "Sorry, I wasn't trying to make you feel uncomfortable, I just forgot that you could actually see me."

I sometimes feel invisble in situations where I am trying to get someone's attention and they are paying attention to everything but me. I find that placing myself squarely in front of them (if it is possible to do so) and saying "excuse me" usually fixes the problem.
