Nah not at all, spending time alone is crucially important to me for managing anxiety. Solo dinner is great. Being surrounded by people constantly is a way for my anxiety to greatly increase. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

It is important to make a distinction between close friends and people you don't know. Also, being alone may feel good but it is not a lasting solution as ultimately humans evolved as social creatures, and you can't rationalize that away. Try spending e.g. a weekend or a week with close friends or family (if you have a good relationship with them), and see what it does for your anxiety. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
