Lonely but don't like people

Does anyone else feel like I do?
I feel lonely and desperate for friends to talk to but at the same time I don't like having to talk to people and I want to be at home with just me and my family and shut the world out and not have to see anyone or text anyone

It feels like quite a contradiction but so does much of my life

Also, I think its hard for me as I feel I can't truly be myself with most people, especially NT's

  • I find as well people can be overwhelming. Too much time with people can lead to exhaustion and other physical drains. 

    (edit) I like your hippo profile picture. I love hippos. Was so tired yesterday I didn't notice it until now lol.
