Thank you. I get anxious around people. For example, every time I get out of the house I have to prepare mentally. Going to the market store I have to go through possible scenarios in my head. It’s been like that as long as I can remember. I’ve learned to deal with it over the years, but it’s there.

That’s why becoming political or engaged in the community is difficult but I like the idea and will try to find some way.

I used to be a bit like that too, but then I just accepted myself and stopped caring (and other people never cared anyway, as I found out eventually). Good luck, I hope you find a way out!
