It can be scary to meet new people, but it's also something that becomes easier in some ways if you build a recent history of it going well.

Yeah. I just feel like I dont make good first impressions. I don't make eye contact and it can take days for me to feel comfortable around someone new. I have had a few bad experiences honestly. I think this should go well though, because someone who works with mentally ill people is probably not going to judge me. That's what everyone says to me so that I feel more comfortable with the idea.

I'd expect someone who's background involves training to deal with behaviours that are common among people with mental illness isn't going to judge because they get it better than the average person you'll encounter.

That makes a lot of sense. Also this time I'm not gonna do anything to make it tense. I'm going to behave. Before I would wander off and get in potentially dangerous situations. I will try not to do that this time. I hope that I dont get a lecture about hygiene though. I always do from professionals. My grandparents also constantly remind me.

Yeah, it's an easy way to avoid losing charisma points.
Speaking of, I should probably wash my hair.

Yeah. I have not washed my hair for a while. I probably should. I met my support worker today. She is nice but strict. Like there is no room to misbehave. Also I think I made a weird impression. I wasnt at my best today. It took me a long time to feel comfortable.
