    How can I cope with loud booms?

    Where I live, there are constant surprise fireworks. This always triggers my anxiety and most times I have panic attacks. The part of me that knows it's probably fireworks goes away and I lose control. Sometimes when I'm sleeping I will wake up to phantom booms. I can tell it's not real...

    Being alone does not seem so bad

    It's hard for people to understand a certain mindset when they haven't experienced it themselves. Humans love tradition and to remain in the lines of so called normality. I do a lot of weird things but it's because it makes sense to me and that's all that matters.

    Being touched by a co-worker

    If I wasn't scared of her, that would be a good option. When I have an escape route in site, I may be able to talk to the boss but by then it may not be worth it.

    Being touched by a co-worker

    I have posted before about being overwhelmed with this co worker that thinks I am her best friend and is obsessed with me. Now she is starting to touch me. It may seem friendly to her or silly but I can't sleep because of this, I'm so angry and feel stuck. Today she touched me under my...

    Does Anyone Just Hate People In General Sometimes?

    I only seem to have room for 3 people in my life that I can tolerate. People are my biggest fear and sadly I take care of them in a hospital. I feel bad for people often but after doing this work for 14 years, I have begun to really dislike the human race even more. I don't understand how...

    Holiday sanity support thread!

    Yep. Feel so trapped and helpless. It's everything I fear, small talk, pretending to like someone or the gifts you receive, hugs. It's a big test.

    Communicating with someone also on the spectrum

    It's just hard. I really dislike and fear small talk and prefer to speak with people who tend to be more realistic. I push away the people that ask too many questions about my personal life, that's more for close friends because it's easier to answer when you know they care and aren't just...

    I feel angry when strangers approach me.

    It's hard. I hate being unpolite too and I also hate feeling forced to make sensitive strangers happy.

    I feel angry when strangers approach me.

    Makes me even angrier that it's considered polite to acknowledge strangers lol

    I feel angry when strangers approach me.

    For those that feel the same way but know a way to cope with it, I would like to know your secret. I try my best to avoid people but the harder I work on avoiding, the more angry I get when somebody comes around the corner and says "Good morning!" I never respond the way that they would like...

    Co-Worker Constantly wants to hang out and it's stressing me out

    I I agree, I do believe she is a bit unstable. She does well at work making a normal appearance though. I agree, don't want to make things worse at my job.

    Co-Worker Constantly wants to hang out and it's stressing me out

    Funny you mention the possibility of her being a stalker. She admitted to spending almost 45 minutes total looking at my profile on FB, my husband's, and my brother's. She feels so comfortable with me that she felt she could just mention this and I would be fine with it. We tell each other weird...

    Co-Worker Constantly wants to hang out and it's stressing me out

    She is aware. I said the same thing to her today when she asked if I would ever want to workout with her. She said she just really enjoys time with me. I said I do as well but I like to be alone most of the time. Maybe she thinks she can fix me, maybe she is lonely
