Trips, partys, going a new place

ImVivienn July 14th, 2021

Hello I dont know its exactly a social enxiety? or not. I love my usual things. When I go to a new place, like a trip, makes me uncomfortabe. 2 days ago I was on a trip with a car, with my boyfriends family. I hate going somewhere, Im afraid of being sick while we on a trip. On sunday we have to go to a wedding and after a party. The wedding is okay, it will be in a church. But at the party... too much ppl, loud music, at a crowded place with so much strangers. Its far away from my comfort zone. 2 weeks ago I was at a wedding and at a party. I was sick, my stomach hurt so much. I wanted to feel myself good, but my stomach... I just dont want to go to the party, but I have to. Im afraid that I will be sick again. 2 days ago i had a panic attack after i woke up at night. I was anxious. So much things happened in the last 3 months. Im full of with hidden stress. Sometimes I just want to lay down and feel nothing bad.

I understand where you are coming from. Loud crowded places are a lot of the time for me, too overwhelming and i do too get that sick feeling inside, i try to take frequent breaks to myself at social gatherings. Like ill literally find an empty room, my car, a bathroom, and just lay or sit there and have 5-10mins to myself. No one notices and personally i find it a good opportunity to ground myself (from dissociation sometimes) and make me calmer. I hope this helps if you were looking for an answer, i hope it all goes well for you and dont feel like you cant have time to yourself. Xx
