Can you act normal in these situations?

Like outside a 7/11’s or shops with other people? When people interact with you with fist bumps and asking your name. I think I’m okay with these interactions!

I act pretty weird, today I was at the vet and couldn’t make eye contact with him at times, I was afraid he thought I was lying about something because of that.

Few months back I went into the pharmacy alone, was so emberassed I didn’t even fill a prescription cause I didn’t want to say the name out loud.

It’s rough.

I can present as normal, but it wears me down. The longer I do it the more exhausting it is.

I can buy cigarettes and make short simple phone calls but not be normal in conversation.

Thats exactly how i feel. Like i can act pretty “normal” in small social situations, but man it wears me down. I feel like im putting on a show and im so aware of my every movement and word i say. Ita exhausting!

It’s like trying to solve hard mental problems while juggling. You have to maintain perfect control of your body without showing lapses in concentration. It’s easier with having a lot of practice, but not easy.
