Okay, I know I'm not alone in this, but sometimes when I'm out and about, I start to kind of panic about nothing. I feel like I really can't be there anymore, and I need to be home. But I can't just wake up, like if I were having a bad dream; I need to make the effort to finish what I'm doing and actually drive home.
Not just when something bad is happening, like a car accident or a medical problem, or someone yelling at me, but even when I'm just shopping. I start feeling anxious, and sometimes I catch myself just standing around doing nothing, because, like, doing something would be admitting to myself that I'm there? I guess? And I have to bring myself back to reality because logically I know that the only way to feel better is if I actively take the steps needed to finish what I'm doing and leave.
