I can't speak on phone or in video call too much pressure of expectation of other person waiting for you to speak.


Even with family I use only SMS or iMessage etc.Have never spoken on a phone in my life.


Other than my dog I speak only to a few people.

In these days of social media where everyone gossips to everyone else it seems harder to keep those people seperate so one doesn't know that you do or don't talk to another!

yes making a big deal of things makes it worse. when I had an neuro attack and couldn't walk because there was so much focus on people watching me I developed a phobia of walking in front of people so couldn't.


and yes I'm one of those for who the mood swings have been severe during peri and it's giving me a seriously hard time.
