I have social anxiety disorder and people assume that I'm autistic. I am greatly offended by this and hurt. Even my own mother wrongfully thought I was autistic. Also when people learn you have a mental illness they automatically assume you're bipolar. It goes to show how uneducated people are about mental illness.
When people assume.. you know the old saying ...they make an ass out of.. well let's say themselves. It's up to us to educate them a little. They say something wrong tell them the right thing. Stand up for yourself. And for others suffering. Either that or just shake your head and let them remain an ignorant ass and laugh.
I go shopping at night when less people are there. I can only tolerate crowds at shows, but even then it's hard because everyone's drunk and I'm the only sober one.
Everyone's a doctor!! Oh it does my head in! Why do ppl think its ok to add their tuppence worth when they dont know what your daily functions are? Some days I just want to scream!! Thank God I have a few dear people in my life who can just let me be me! They let me rabbit on or just cry without judging or thinking they have to give an 'answer' Some days my smile just hurts so I dong get gjven 'words of wisdom' other days I just hide. I havent left the house from friday and only going to be out tomorros cos I hzve the doctor. Sorry for moaning on and on
Apparently going late doesn't work for the gym though :/
I am a late night shopper as well.
