Yeah, I relate. I am alone most days (spouse works and goes to school, so I mostly only see him on weekends except maybe an hour here or there). I don't leave the house except a grocery trip once a wee, mostly. Mine is not agoraphobia either, I just dislike reality outside my house. The people here are just awful and I have no idea how to relate and I don't want to. I think I regard most people with a mild sense of contempt at best. Disgust at worst. I'm not a fan of my own country either. I prefer to live in my own head, my own reality, my own bubble. I understand that. I also understand the consequences of isolation and how much more difficult it becomes to function outside my house when I hole up in it for extended periods of time. Sensory overload, failure to connect, slow processing times, so on...
