Today has got to be one of the shitty ones. I go to the ups store to ship out a subwoofer box..I sold the box for 125...ups doesn't have a box that fits the sub box...they find one but it's fucking huge and talking about 100 after all said and done...so in take my sub box and leave for the gym...

So, I'm driving to the gym and everything seems smooth...I don't like parking around people so I park I. The back where it's empty...I start walking in to the gym and the parking lot is pretty full. So I start panic. ..I go in and immediately a swarm of people. ..I walk back to the weight room and everyone is hogging machines on just bsing....so I grab my coat and leave...the front desk was like 5 minutes huh? I said I pity you because you just haven't got a clue. ...I walk out to my car and it's surrounded by vehicles ..wtf ..


This is why I want to be off grid and no one around me to bother me


Rich mother fuckers are the worst

I can't fucking stand busy places when I need to get shit done.

People that go shopping on "Black Friday" and Boxing Day and Walmart on the weekend fucking baffle me

Go to Walmart between 8:00 am and 10am. The greasy fucks aren't up that early and it's nice.

I hate lines. I hate traffic. I hate waiting.

I'm like @Indagrow when it comes to errands

I like to go fast.

I started to get some anxiety just a bit earlier, I have to work out of town longer then planned and realized my Rec papers are in the car and Im in the truck..and running low on meds!!!

Low and behold, found 2+gm in my shave kit. It's old (cherry pie) but without even smoking yet, I feel much better now.

YAY!

I find weed helps my anxiety a lot, depending on the kind. And the situation.

But yeah, life is hard. When things don't go as planned, you get anxious.

There is no "cure" for social anxiety. There are just ways you learn to deal with it, and work through it.

Everyone is different.

I recently read an anxiety related thread somewhere here that I found beneficial. I actually went to post but my ipad battery died just before I replied, then I forgot about it.

What I was reminded of, sleep, nutrition and exercise are an important part of keeping anxiety in check. Staying off crack also helps! :)

I try to not get anxious in situations I have no control over. Although getting stuck in a highway traffic jam tends to freak me out. Bumper to bumper log-jams, oh fuck! I fantasize about punching my fist through the ceiling of my car when it gets bad. I take the first exit off the hwy whenever possible and take the long way, so can just keep moving without getting blocked in.

When I go to a restaurant, I need to know where all the exits are and have my back to the wall. If it gets too loud or busy, sometimes i just want out- immediately. If I'm familiar with the establishment it's usually never an issue. I won't frequent anywhere that is really busy or crowded.

See I'm a funny duck

I thrive in social situations. I love people.

But I also FUCKING HATE WAITING. I can't stand slow ass shit, or when people are bad at their jobs and are not helpful.

I don't have a lot of patience. I never yell, or scream, or freak on the customer service agents.

But I have been in customer service my whole life. In the city, in bars, and in remote working environments. I have dealt with some fucking awful customers. And always with a kind smile.

I just like people that try hard, at everything. So when some dumb fuck at the store doesn't know what the price of something is and makes me wait 15 mins before they can find it - I might leave without paying for my batteries and then back out of the parking lot and forget to look behind me and then hit a car.

My one and only car accident, 4 or 5 years ago. I was pissed about the waiting.

Now I take deep breaths, and NEVER drive angry.

Triaktin like a man and not a little bitch.

Just having fun with ya.
I have been crippled by it in my past and today I just work around it.
Cognitive behavior modification has way less negative side effects than ssri
Or benzos, imo.
Your already going to the gym but that would be my first recommendation.
Exhaust yourself

I've been trying SSRIs on and off since I was 20.

I'm 34 and JUST found the right one.

It's a fucking process.

Hahaha. Fak.
