Hello flawed_design: The Skeezyks does not really have a hypothesis with regard to what you've observed. While I do enjoy looking around at nature (to the extent there is any in the middle of the city) I do whatever I can to avoid catching the gaze of others I encounter. I live a pretty-much thoroughly solitary lifestyle. And this is part of it. Most people I see have their heads buried in their phones anyway.

I see this is your first post here on PC. So... welcome to PsychCentral… from the Skeezyks! I hope you find the time you spend here to be of benefit.

PsychCentral is a great place to get information as well as support for mental health issues. There are many knowledgeable & caring members here. The more you post, & reply to other members’ posts, the more a part of the community you will become. Plus there are social groups you can join & chat rooms where you’ll be able to connect with other PC members in real time (once your first 5 posts have been reviewed & approved.) Lots of great stuff! So please keep posting!
