Sometimes anxiety can overwhelm like that. It can be discouraging but I am sure you can bounce back from it. Do you know what caused it, perhaps? If you think a small post mortem discussion would make you feel more in control over it for the next get together (hopefully soon) then I would love to help.

My day was definitely nice overall! And I sure as hell got plenty of sunlight, I should use sunscreen more though.

>I'm trying my hardest to be open and honest, but I'm so afraid of scaring people off.
People are unpredictable. Look at me, being a near bottomless well in that regard. Meanwhile one of my closest friends would not have any mental energy for it whatsoever. The only way we can know is communicating with people and having them set their boundaries. That is not something we can just anticipate in advance.
>But, I think I might be more afraid that I won't have the chance to talk to about my life the way things are going.
How so?
>I have to try, otherwise I'll have to consider something more clinical, like therapy.
Yeah. Or both if you have the means, therapy is often a useful supplement.
>I'm just so tired of being afraid and cowardly.
And you are pushing to change that, by the looks of it. And I am proud of you for it.
