I’d rather be at home than go out because things change, I lose touch and blow my top.

I’m the same way. I’m fine at home when I have to leave high anxiety makes me stand out.

Same. Like sitting on steps and looking at the trees, usually with sunglasses and noise cancelling ear phones on when other people are up and about. Neighbours. Then I can think.

I’m okayish around others. I feel more watched when I’m out and around people so my brain forces me to act as normal as possible. So no one looks at me.

I’m a bit of both. I’m withdrawn and don’t want to see anyone. Then I feel better and go out for coffee with friends and then overshare on my problems and then afterwards I overthink what I said, feel embarrassed and then I become withdrawn again
I worry that my disability insurance is watching my every move
That makes me anxious and paranoid

I enjoy people but not when they want to come and stay for nights or weeks at our house.

I enjoy being out in public but I need daily alone time at house always.

People say “there’s that psychotic dude” about me. Then they laugh.

I also don’t want to be around people. But my therapist really really pressures me to socialize and I feel like I need to listen to her because I’ve been conditioned to listen to people like her for so long. I wish I could stand up for myself more.
