Some days, like today, I get social anxiety, which I usually have very little of normally. I'm afraid to go outside and afraid to answer my phone or send and reply to text messages. I'm also anxious of people online and of noises coming from outside my window or my door. Can this be a part of my bipolar II? I don't think there's anything specific that precipitates this, it just sort of happens. I think it happens more often when I'm alone. It usually starts around the time that I wake up and lasts for a day or a few days. I don't know if there is any one thing I'm afraid of in other people. I have many different scary thoughts (e.g. are they judging me, are they dangerous, did I offend them, are they talking to me or about me, are they following me, are they undercover police, is there surveillance here, are they spies? Etc.)
