That's a little beyond shy... That's a social anxiety disorder.

Especially if any of them are cold products. They'll have to be thrown out because they won't be able to guarantee how long they were abandoned for. It would've been less douchey to steal them, because at least they wouldn't be thrown into a dumpster for nobody to enjoy.

I guess that doesn't hold any water after all. Or at least not for TC. Maybe he just came to this board as his new off topic venting board.

How is being shy preventing you from putting that shit back from where you found it? How is being shy preventing you from checking if self check out is available before you shop for a cart full of somebody else's property and potentially ruining it?

While it may be trolling it IS real.

I once drove to get a job application to fill out, sat in the parking lot for ten minutes sweating, and then drove home and got under the covers and locked the door.

I haven't abandoned groceries but people making fun of it need to realize mental illness is real.

Interestingly two things helped me:
1.) My psychiatrist said it might never go away. Indeed illogical fear does flare up sometimes, but knowing it probably won't go away I remember it is illogical and try to deal with it. Not everyone can.

2.) I don't have social anxiety I have agoraphobia, which I learned is not a fear of open spaces but a fear of the unfamiliar. Once in a pattern I'm fine.

Without help I wouldn't have a job I love. The IS help out there.

I don't like the self check out. I always go for one with a cashier despite being shy and having anxiety issues. The self check out here always has a "guard" that stands there and watches you scan your items and help fix any problems that might happen. I just can't stand to be stared at/watched like that, I'd rather have a small awkward conversation with the cashier.

I was getting off the bus and didn't have time to post this before I got to work:
What Clubhouses Do | Clubhouse International
https://clubhouse-intl.org what-we-do
If the TC is unemployed I highly suggest looking into this if you have a local one. I met many people some far worse off than me but others who were former executives etc. For those too mentally ill to hold a consistent job these places provide a community to participate in to avoid isolation. For those who are able to work but need help with job experience and getting on track transitional employment is an amazing gift, and since it is mostly the members doing the work participating is itself some work experience.

I'm not ashamed in the least for being a member, even if I don't visit much since I work full time now. My only regret is that it took me seven or eight years to get back on track. Getting over it isn't the point and may be impossible for some. Living with it without it defining you is possible for many.

Going with this. "Face the fear but do it anyway" may help with this. That or just image others naked. Otherwise you're just feeding your fear and keeping yourself in a prison created in your own mind.

On a side note: Some folk assume I'm shy because I can be quite. I'm more of a listener and observer though and I'm certainly not shy. If I find you interesting I'll try and make conversation if not then I won't.

I stayed out of the arctic meltdown, bro. This board is notorious for lacking humanity though.
