....not always acceptable. Leaving in a huff leaves others wondering just what they said to cause someone to leave (I know it makes me wonder).Chat is way, way too triggering for me. Social anxiety at its worst. Small talk becomes enormous. Undercurrents in conversations become undertows, and I'm pulled under too easily. So I think I'm gonna leave it alone. It's not a safe place for me to be. Last night it took me 2 hours to peel myself off the ceiling - and I didn't even say hardly anything in chat! The evening and night is such a tough time of the day for me; I have be vigilant in keeping safe.
Sometimes babble feels like I'm watching a car wreck in slow motion, and I'm utterly unable to move or help. Chat feels like jaywalking during rush hour on the highway right now.
