I prefer to be alone, I really dislike being around other people. I like talking to people on this forum because they are the most like me, but I am so sick and tired of being around other people. I like being alone, I haven't been to school since October because I can't stand how loud and annoying the other kids are. I am 15 years old and I live an "unemployed student" aka "hikkikomori" lifestyle. I am only ever around my family, I only leave my house once and a while when I want to buy some snacks and that's about it. I am happier alone than I am around tons of people, I also have an anxiety disorder so I can't really stand being around people because it sends fear right through me. I prefer being alone because I am a lot more happy that way, I am planning on going back to school in September though as I still want an education and since I missed too much time I have to wait til next school year to go back. I am going to try and see if I can get my psychologist and the school to put a plan in place so I can sit in a quiet room and do my work rather than in a typical classroom setting. I spend my time in my room at the computer.
