Just being me

I've always called out of my house outside, that scary place where other people are: the real world. I get anxiety attacks outside and when I do, I don't find being with people easy, and I feel everyone is looking at me, even when I know they aren't. Luckilly though sometimes I am OK with being with other people and cope quite well with the place that is outside. When I am extremely anxious though it is a kind of hell. I've never really got to grips with this, and have only recently owned up to it fully. I'm 49 but autism explains so much about me.

Hi and welcome, it's good that you are here. I know what you mean, though I don't find it so scary as you. It's good to walk in nature for example, and I don't mind local urban walks either, I rarely engage with anyone, I just wander. I hope you will enjoy it here and find it useful and supportive.
