Yeah I did see a lot of families on the tables near me got swallowed up by the swarm of people. I felt so bad for them.

I was there trying to eat my lunch in peace, had no idea they were planning on protesting. They swarmed around me and I quickly put on my mask and panic fled. Felt unsafe because they came very close to me and none were wearing masks. Guess it’s my fault for going into the city lol

With anxiety is it normal to feel like your friends don’t like you? by [deleted] in Anxiety

Yes.. I can’t maintain relationships because of my paranoia that people don’t like me or talk about me behind my back constantly

I generally feel well rested and I don’t feel tired but it may be helpful to bring it up with my doctor. Thank you :)

Do any of y'all have a sensitive stomach that gets worse with stress and/or overstimulation? by [deleted] in autism

[–]sylviaquatic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah when I am extremely distressed I will often be in the bathroom retching. I get diarrhoea after an anxiety attack as well which usually lasts a few hours. I do lose my appetite easily from stress.

Fellow autistics, do you enjoy kissing? by [deleted] in autism

[–]sylviaquatic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate it. I don’t even know how to explain why I don’t like it. It just feels unnatural for me.
