two weeks ago we managed to get through an entire weekend of social activities for our daughter's marriage. then we kinda spent a very quiet week after and thought that rested us up. Well, we have a wedding tonight and now a meal out before hand with lots of family members and WE DO NOT WANT TO GO.
why is it so darn hard to do this stuff and why does it feel like someone is being mean to us when they want us to go out. I hate going out. hate hate hate hate social events and I feel panic and ugly and stupid and weird and ANGRY ![]() ![]() ![]() scared

Thank You, friends. We decided to take care of ourselves because we are in a tough issue right now. So, WE ARE STAYING HOME - HOORAY!
We older parts feel bad, our family are pretty good folks and are not mean to us over our limits. But we know we are disappointing our spouse pretty badly and it makes him the only solo there with no partner. Sigh... Does anyone know any ways to get over feeling this way - as in panicked over social affairs??? We do want to get past this and we feel kinda crummy for skipping out. I made my choice and now I gotta deal with the consequences cos that's just life. See ya'll

(((((((((((((((multipixie))))))))))))) It's so hard when we make choices to practice self care and then have to pay not nice consequences. It's hard enough to choice self care in the first place sometimes.
I struggle with social things as well. When I do go, I'm told I have either become very social or a fly on the wall (I guess depending on which part of me is present at the time). Even when I stay present in those situations, I sit so far outside of myself that nothing can get me. I don't have any answers, but I do understand the dilemma. I hope you find some relief soon. ![]() ![]() ![]()

I wish i had something to help with the social anxiety, maybe working up to larger even through smaller ones you are more in control of might help a bit?
