Looking for introverts

I want to hear from introverted people like me because this is the way … Continue reading Looking for introverts
Post-Pandemic Depression (could it be?)

What are we?
I wonder how our mind works, and how different the thought process is from one person to another. I wonder what goes in your mind, you person reading this.

What is going on?
I have been feeling weird lately. I am afraid of women's stares. I feel like when they look at my eyes they are trying to decipher something. They are trying to find out if I am queer. I am not, but I feel uncomfortable with that situation. I have been avoiding men's staring at me … Continue reading What is going on?
