I do prefer to be alone. Few months ago, I have started to write a journal. One of the parts is writing down my mood throughout the day. With numbers from 1 to 10. 1 for very bad mood and 10 for exceptionally happy. So...then when I was reading through what I have written I have noticed a pattern. M... |

Hi, I would love to find them, but just thinking about talking to strangers make me feel sick. I know that is also part of social anxiety, but what can I do? Do you know what could help? I mean, talking someone online is not so big deal, but it is still a strugle. I would probably say, "Believ... |

I keep food in my fridge...no room for dishes. I have doggy pre-wash, so the dishes can build up on the sink for a week. So a cup, a plate, sharp knife, dinner knife and fork and 2 or 3 teaspoons a day, a small pot and or frying pan and a cutting board. With my partner away for months I've had to r... |

Tip for dirty dishes from someone who is both a slob and neat: I put my dirty dishes in the refrigerator until I'm ready to wash them. That way they don't look untidy and they also don't attract bugs. My fridge isn't big enough for that, but I admire the applied laziness. Society tends to praise ha... |

I would like to know one thing - do you guys do "reset cleaning" or do cleaning every day? I was always taught that apartment must be so clean like I am waiting for unexpected guests. Strangely, I just stayed in this way of cleaning, but both of my siblings didn't. I moved out from my pare... |

When I was a kid. Nobody wanted to play with me when I didn't bring out my toys, so they could. Then later in school, they've made friends of groups, but I was not included in any of those. I have tried, but without success. I was laughed at, cause of my behavior and appearance. Later in high school... |

Well stressful situations. That means every time I have to interact with people. It doesn't matter if it is my family, my work or strangers.
Ironic fact - I am caregiver in healthcare system |

I am practicing it for the last 10 years. But nobody can say, I didn't try. I did, but it is not for me. I am better alone. |

Dune series by Frank Herbert. If you looks for books with very complicated and dense storyline, those books will be for you. |

Nick Fuentes is the person who popularized this revolting phrase. So, he was serious. That's a pity. I don't follow these internet personalities at all--I was only aware of the "Professional Douche's" comical use of the phrase. 8O I don't follow those internet personalities either, but I ... |

Hi PoundlessMind_32 , Welcome to Wrong Planet. You wrote, "I can't look people in the eyes for more than a one second." I also have this trait. I do not make direct Eye to Eye contact but always look a little off to one side. I actually figured out a solution to this problem by preventing... |

I hope so too. But to be honest, I am not good at keeping an interest for long. I mean I will always come back, but it can be weeks, or months |

Reading. When I was a kid, I didn't want to go out much and play with other kids. More like I was at home always watching TV (yeah it was at the time when computer with internet was for rich people). And I hated reading. Like it was always fight between me and whatever I had to read at the time. One... |

Sleeping never was a big issue, but... I am a very sensitive person when it comes to the sleeping. I don't understand people who can fall asleep anywhere, any time while standing or sitting (like behind the desk). I can only sleep in the room where I am alone. I can't stand the feeling when I sleep ... |
