Hi Andrew 132,

I would make a list of what, where and who is the LEAST offensive to you and start from there. So, I, too, hate supermarkets, but if I had to pick one (and I do), that is my “safe” market. I also go at a certain time of day. Same with people. Same with things. Little by little, you’ll get out of your comfort zone. Or, more commonly, you’ll be stuck in it.

You’re not the only one who feels “different” and an “alien”. Those that act in the ways you described are just trying to be like everyone else. Or, they really are that way. (God help them!)

Best,

Inky
