I only go out when I have to. The longer I stay out the warier I become, like this dull, constant yearning for solitude. Another thing, it's the same with people, in the middle of conversation I just want to storm off or even yell at them if what they're talking about is stupid and be alone. Maybe because I feel like I can't be myself or feel unsafe outside of my home? And the thing is, I have no desire to fix this. Can anyone offer any insight?
Are You Normal?
Ask your question today!
Me, I avoid people in this town because:
1. It's a small town. They gossip too much and I'm not a fan of knowing whose daughter was seen drunk two nights ago, or whose uncle owns what type of car.
2. If you don't think the stereotyped opinion, they label you. Ranging from "weird" to "freak", oh so many names! How nice.
3. Not enough conversation stimulation. I don't get excited to be engaged in talks with them.
My solution: Move. Out. I'm not going to let a small town lock me inside a small circle and stop myself from meeting potential close friends.
There are alot more people to sift through for potential friendships, but ALOT more mindless zombies as well. And traffic. Got to take the good with the bad I suppose.
But I have social anxiety. Maybe you should ask your doc or look it up and see if it might be similar to what you feel.
