I don't think my ex-therapist took me seriously when I said role-playing online did more than my social skills than my parents did

TV, movies and music did the same for me. I learned to question the social habits of my parents & saw that there were other ways of behaviour towards people.

@@Mami_Lisa those were my gateways to role play. I didn't do dnd much. I mostly did 1 on 1 fandom role plays where we divided the cast between us. Occasionally I was more the DM, the person I was with being 1 to 4 characters while I was every one else.

Same though, I legit learned all my social skills online and in three years of high school. My mother 'home schooled' my siblings and I (read: neglected us while not having to take us anywhere, so we had to teach ourselves). I was so aggressive and afraid when she threw me into highschool after she got sick of me lmao. The whole first year was me trying to figure out who was trying to hurt me or not. It took me until the second year to realize it was the same kinds of interactions, and I could just lean into the way I had learned online and everything was okay. Plus my friends online helped me work through my panic and worries while I had nobody IRL to help.

For me it was through watching one of my friends who is very social. Not like in a creepy way but just analyzing how they reacted to certaine things and how they acted around people. And I would also ask them for advice.

Rosey is one of the kindest, most caring people in the TabletopRPG community. Energetic, excited, thoughtful - there's no better person I can imagine on this Ted Talk. Love to see it!

This is how my child developed his social skills.

DnD is honestly such a lifeline for so many people

Compassion and creativity build wisdom.

​@@jamieflecknoe5115 I'll just use the fact that I saw your reply to maybe ask a few questions ;) When giving teamwork a big impact by removing rolls and give advantage to players, how do you keep consequences? If a roll can be tried by all the players it will very likely succeed, thus removing the need to even roll. This is just a small example, but the bigger question would be - how do you incorporate consequences into this method? How do you use it or not?

I live somewhere where most people won't know what DnD is. When I describe it as a Tabletop Roleplaying Game, people think it is a complete waste of time just because they heard the word "game." Honestly though, it is so much more than that. This pandemic would have been so much darker for me if not for DnD.

“Finding a group of nerds who also lack social skills” Ted Talk

*The boulder voice* The Boulder is just the first step!

So D&D basically helps seeing life's problems as a multiple choice options?

Dungeons And dragons is amazing with so many benefits to SoCal l social interaction I’m not surprised.

I don't have any friends, nor a good bond with family. I just try to find someone to be friends with, or just RP all the time. Tired of living a dual life.

Felt like that as well. If anyone reading this isn't into anecdotes, just ignore me, but here's what happened to me with that problem. But there was a live stream i often watched, in which i got to write with a few people in chat and we got along quite fine. One of them started talking about wanting to play dnd, but not having anyone to do it with. In this group of utter strangers, we ended up being 7 people who wanted to play, 2 of them more experienced and offering to GM for us. I had so much fun by just talking online to them and playing dnd over discord. Especially in times like this, the void of the internet sometimes proves to be a rather shallow well and if you throw something in there, people might see and maybe someone else will pick it up and start to talk to you about it.
