It's hard enough for me to muster up the courage to leave my house just to go on walks by myself anyway without having to go into a business and actually look someone in the face and talk to them. Rational mind knows it's not a big deal and no one cares if I'm awkward. Anxiety mind says the worse embarrassment of my life will happen and I'll never be able to show my face again! I really don't want to do it but I figure it's the dumbest thing in the world to be like this.
I won't even talk to people on the phone. In person is even worse. It takes me so long to think of the right thing to say. And being badgered to buy something I'm not sure I want makes me feel annoyed and stressed and super guilty that I'm wasting someone's time. So I giggle awkwardly a lot and then run home and hide under the covers.
(Had to go to the mall last night to return something and it was AMAZING because all the salespeople were busy with inventory. Not a single person offered to help me. I loved it.)
((...I think there's a reason we all hang out on here.))
Ya I'm kind of surprised at all of the responses. Everybody has pretty strong online personas to me. Phone isn't the best for me either. I text everyone usually. Feeling guilty over thinking you're wasting someone's time! That's definitely a factor.
If I am at home, I do not answer the phone. The online personas appear to be strong because you are dealing with online personas, I can shut off the website or computer anytime I want. It gives (at least me) the feeling of some level of control.

Hang in there, you are not alone.
I would so much to want to be you. Get away from everyone, become a hermit. I do not like humans, they sux. Never to have bother with people again. But, there is called life and I gotz to deal with them. Most days its okay. But about every 18 months or so it becomes so overwhelming, that I have to do a total withdrawal for a couple of weeks. No peoples.
I've been trying to have this thing called a "life" but I'm actually a very successful vampire hermit. Everyday I'm like....I should venture back into society, then I remember what society is like I go back to the internet.3 -

^Along these same lines, especially with salespeople, I actually won't go to the mall because of the kiosk people. This one particular makeup kiosk has really pushy people, and I'm really bad at saying no, so I ended up with like $60 in overpriced eyeshadows from the same kiosk in 2 different malls. I'm lucky I didn't go for that $100 straightener another stall tried to sell me. She did only demonstrate it on half of my head though and didn't finish the other half when she finally gave up haha
True story.
I was at the scottsdale fashion square and some girl working a kiosk gave me a little cup containing moisturizer.
She said: Try it!
So while standing in front of her, I ate it.
I told her: This tastes terrible, why would anyone ever buy this stuff?
No Sale.7 -

I confess that I do not understand how people can blend their food into mush and eat that. The sight of green smoothies and juices, any kind of mushed up food in a processor makes me ill.0

I'm avoiding making that one telephone call:
"Why does it cost this much? Why does it cost that much? "
"Why? Why? Because it does, that's why."0 -

I confess I feel like I have to in a way warn people about the entities I see
But
I know most people think it's a joke a game or thwt I'm insane
Let me just say
I confess that the unseen is more horrible then you can imagine
You have no idea what might be attached to you and or lurking around you at every moment
Be very careful of your thoughts0 -

Yes, foil works. Although.....
For me, it's probably overkill.
I'm not very smart so wax paper is probably efficacious enough.0 -

I have wax paper, parchment paper, non stick foil and regular foil, why not make insulated hat in case.0 -

I have such a bad habit of trying to save calories for dinner because it's my favorite meal of the day. In turn I get really hungry and then stuff my face beyond belief at dinner.0 -

Mix in all of them.
You just might create a modern art masterpiece that also guards your thoughts.1
