Whether it’s family or coworkers or whoever. I have such a hard time talking and just always feel anxious. There are very few people I feel comfortable around. :agony-deep:

    Certain groups of people are just hard to get on with depending upon your interests. I like my coworkers, but any group discussions with them quickly turn to golf, the minutiae of football stats, and quoting Adam Sandler and Will Ferrell movies, with the occasional “haha, pronouns amirite?”

      You often have to pretend to be someone different depending on your audience to work in modern society and it's fucking exhausting; if you don't have people with which you can actually be yourself to interact with regularly enough it can quickly drive you mad. Or worse: making you start taking that shit seriously, losing yourself.
