I’m a bit tired now though. I kind of spoke when I was spoken to and didn’t really initiate a lot of conversations. But I got through it. Yay!
Way to go! Was it a big one with extended family?
Yes, a big one with extended family. I was the only one there without kids , lol So I think I felt I didn’t have a lot in common with the others.
But it was uneventful from a schizophrenia point of view. That is I didn’t feel weird in any way. Just a little bit of social anxiety I guess.
That’s really good! I’m trying to prepare myself for two family gatherings after the wedding. One here in Melbourne with Mr Turtle’s family and one up in Brisbane with my family. And I’m scared about them because they are essentially about Mr Turtle and I so we will be the centre of attention, which really puts me off.
I’m sure you’ll be fine. These things are ok when they’re actually happening as I found out, it’s just thinking about them beforehand is the stressful part.
