can u relate to this autism behavior?

how did others react to it?
for me others would tell me to stop being awkward.

I would have to agree that the presence of other people does make me nervous and whenever I sense that there are fewer people around me I begin to relax. Simply knowing the number of people around me seems to have a huge impact on my anxiety status.

The fewer the better for me.

Whenever there's a crowd I have to walk past or through, it definitely feels uncomfortable. The feeling when they're all around making noise, the loud overlapping conversations and knowing it will be a while before I get past and find quiet again...
It's like holding your breath underwater and knowing you'll have to breathe again very soon.

I had a much easier time being around people when I was accustomed to it, but also when I still assumed that they were navigating by flawed logic, not unpredictable emotions. I have been wasting a lot of time trying to predict emotional reactions that are actually pretty rare. It might be better to just relax and skip the speculation, and instead just expect to cope with a rogue wave from time to time.

It is interesting how well people flow past each other on crowded sidewalks. In that, at least, we usually cooperate well.

When it comes to being in contact with anyone, there's always that feeling of being trapped and wanting to escape.

Sometimes it's very mild sometimes it's overwhelming, depending the person or people and situation.

My default comfort zone setting is complete solitude.
