@rav3n I like the tought of being social, but I'm really really quiet and withdraw...a lot when out in social settings. I find it difficult. I have to work myself up, convince myself to go and usually that involves things like...driving myself because I know I can leave if I'm overwhelmed or just done, and giving myself a time where I think it's acceptable to leave. A little like..."I'll go I'll stay for two hours and then I'm out." When I leave, I tend to overthonk and stress about whether other people are offended that I've left...
So, I tend not to be very social.

@rav3n my day is ok if I don't look at it or think about it, between random urges to breakdown in a puddle of tears, to feeling as though I'm living on borrowed time, like the universe is waiting for me to complete what I survived once. anywhoo, faking it till I'm making it seems to work, oops sorry that all slipped out, shoving it back into the pandora's box..... Yeah I'm great! How's your day going?
