MissE1088... I know exactly how you feel, as I am always afraid of being judged when people look at me... it's been a gradual thing for me, I live far away from family and then I don't call my friends to get together with them all that much anymore, now I just leave the house to go to work, I sit down and avoid being social with people and then I go home... I usually will be in the house alone all weekend when I don't work
