Feeling out of it when alone

when im alone i go all weird 9in the head and more aware of my surroundings and there are more voices when im in my kitche (the only room without curtains up) i feel people are watching me .

I start to feel out of it when I’m alone too long…I used to feel out of it a good deal of the time before my onset of symptoms…now it’s only when I’ve been alone too long and it’s easier now to come back to earth afterwards for me.

I don’t feel comfortable out in public though…that’s my thing…even without symptoms I feel like a freak walking down the street and like everyone’s going to notice me.

I like to isolate, but I have noticed that it makes me act a lot crazier. Being around people can straiten out my thinking sometimes.

thanks for replies mussel I feel that way too I take my dog with me put my Walkman on so I cant hear a thing im lucky where ilive a little bit of walking and then to a woods that only has the odd person there.
I however turn into a lump of jelly when I have to go anywhere near town too many monkeys LOL

drewleo34 you hit the nail on the head there when your alone your and you don’t have anyone to talk to your thinking gets all crazy. people keep talling me to phone them when im like that I really should not a fan of the phone tho.

I was alone this weekend. I had and still have a cold, so it kept me busy. I did start hearing voices for a few seconds. It could have been the fever or the stress.

Fall has started (I’m watching the local news).

I try to go to other places for a change of scenery. If I feel too oppressed by it, I visit family and friends in town.

I’m sorry this is hitting you. I have problems being alone too.

Every little noise is an intruder, and my mind races and I get a bit panicky. I can be alone on the job, but I have a very hard time spending the night alone in my house.

yeah i think when your alone the paranoia gets worse. My boyfriends round tomorrow so wont be alone much longer yey id make a RUBBISH hermit LOL
