I have to prepare myself to be around people. And I don’t mean my appearance. It’s more of a mental preparation. It’s like I have two sides to me. And it takes me a while to transition from being by myself to being around others. I have to have that mindset to be around people or I’ll be quiet, annoyed, and tired. Because being around people takes a great deal of effort for me. People drain me.
Not exactly like this, but I definitely need to be in that mindset to be around people… Hmm
I am, not this exactly, but some variation of this. If I don’t feel like I can be myself, I just don’t show up at all....
