For some people the mere act of going outside, let alone to a gathering with people, requires a significant amount of effort.
It's me. I'm some people.
for real, condescending take by the other commenter. They have no idea the resolve it took to put myself in that situation. I can't help that I was out of place, except if I had refused to even go? What would that have accomplished?
It's okay. Take a deep breath and do a single item on your self-care list. You did good.
This self-fellatio is really sad ngl. I literally have the same issues in social situations, but I'm actually doing something about it
A) They don't say they didn't they to socialize, just that it's what they did.
B) You're basing this of incredibly limited information. You have no idea how severe their issues are or even really what they are, so no you probably don't "literally have the same issues"
C) Going out at all sounds like it is them doing something about it. Just because they haven't made as much progress as you doesn't mean they aren't working hard at improving.
Yeah no shit. It's me aswell. But when I take the effort to go someplace I'm not going to sit and twiddle my thumbs
