⭐️ Social ⭐️ Lockdown - I keep forgetting The Normals exist

[ChemicallyEnhanced]

I very rarely go out as I have agoraphobia on top of all the COVID stuff.
So since all my social interactions are with people like myself...It's like culture-shock when I go out.
I almost FORGET that straight/sober/cis/neurotypical people exist and then I go out and they're fucking EVERYWHERE and I hate it.

Anyone understand where I'm coming from?

I used to always get this feeling after tripping on LSD, like everyone else was living in another shade of this dimension, of which I was separate from.

I also have taken measures to go out as little as possible, and interact w/ the general public as little as possible. Only time I do is if I'm going to work or buying something I really need.

It used to be easier for me to talk to a fellow fiend than to a square, but depending on my mood and the substance I'm on, I do alright bumping elbows w/ the common folk and have a pretty good customer service voice.

Funny, me too!

But rather from not wanting to see the "new normal".

Is it really not wanting to see the new normal or not wanting to show your own new normal compared to the "fake" normal?

A mate of mine calls them "society people". I get where the feeling comes from but I'm not sure I feel the same way. I kind of just don't like anyone.

My least favorite part of having to go work
