Default Struggling With People

Well another Saturday night of me sitting at home with the dog while my family is out of town having fun(happy for them)I have seen it all this past week.

I no longer can drive on passenger side of car...I have to drive!!I still get panic and nausea from peoples driving!(I think certain people think it's funny)

I had been in a yelling match fighting for myself with a state worker...I got in a yelling match with my main case manager...Nobody understands me!!!

I have been feeling a little better since I got medication(2weeks now)with a few melt downs and physical symptoms....Reason of the melt downs then trigger physical symptoms....NOBODY UNDERSTANDS ME BUT VERY FEW....My fuse is short, frustrating, and overwhelmed! I just rather live like a hermit because every time I make the effort to try this socialize thing or just communicate with people I experience a melt down....

How does other survivors deal or cope with toxic people?(In my eyes their all toxic to me)Sad but true....Feedback is appreciated greatly
