I have a hard time with

Going out in public for the most part. I have to be “normal” it seems. I’ve got a headache right now because this stresses me a little. Anyone have this circumstance?

Yes, it is called “agoraphobia”. A fair number of people have it. I know I do. I really hate being stuck in a social setting, where I am conspicuous.

hopefully you are becoming stable and aware of your public surroundings a bit more…it’s to be understood…you’ve been shaken up…par for the course.

Yes, it’s agoraphobia. I have it badly too.

Probably been out of the house for less than 75 hours all year, with the exception of four really difficult days at my mother’s place in May that I still haven’t recovered from.

I’ve made efforts to walk outside in the past year, but I’m terrified of having a psychotic episode when out alone.

Third day I walked in the last week. That’s huge for me

I’m sorry you struggle with this too. :pensive:

I canceled my involvement in a church meal for the homeless because I just can’t be around that many people.
