dont be so down on yourself for things that make you unique. i have the same issues with people,crowds ect. and i do my grocery shoppin @ 1am @ the 24hr. walmart supercenter so pull-ups, shampoo and a quart of automotive oil can be picked up all at once to avoid any other trips i might need to take to minimize the anxiety issue. i have left stores emtyhanded and left behind full carts mid-isle more times than not!keep smilin <font color="#008800">
