With the summer being here again, I'm a little sad about the fact that I can't enjoy all the cultural events or festivals that usually often happen in this season. People seem to be very excited about it, but the crowds and the loudness aren't something I can handle often. My friends want to be in what sounds like a blast of fun and creativity and art but it's for several days away from where I live so I can't just go there and back home whenever I want.
Do you join these events at all? Is there a plan, strategy or things that help you enjoy or survive them?
Hi, no I don’t like those events but I also don’t feel like I am missing out. I just like different things! My favourite is hiking and being in nature or exercise though sadly injuries have curtailed those the past years. I do relate to your feelings though- i marvel too sometimes at how much people seem to enjoy things that I struggle with- for me that’s eating out in a restaurant etc. I struggle with digestion and find eating socially very stressful and I do wish sometimes I could enjoy eating out like other people do.
