50 Funny And Relatable Memes For Anyone Who Struggles In Social Settings (New Pics)
Snakes? Those adorable little creatures don’t scare me. Heights? No big deal, I'd go bungee jumping tomorrow. Spending a week night at a loud, crowded event where I don’t know anyone and will be forced to socialize with strangers? The horror!
If your ideal evening involves spending time at home with your dog and a documentary, while the idea of attending a party fills you with dread, you just might have FOGO, or the fear of going out. And while there is no known cure for this condition, there can be comfort in knowing that you’re not alone (in your desire to be alone). Below, you'll find some of our favorite recent posts from the FOGO Instagram page, as well as conversations with author and creator of Introvert Spring, Michaela Chung, and Yadirichi Oyibo, founder of Diary Of An Introvert. So enjoy scrolling through, and be sure to upvote all of the tweets that make your antisocial self feel seen!

Matches? We don't even have profiles on dating sites, and we have clean kitchens, undisputed control of the entertainment system of our choice, and adorable fluffy roommates to cuddle. The stigma is defensive ploy of the patriarchy, because once you go cat(lady), you won't go back.

Why Sleep When Dwelling On Unlikely Disaster Scenarios Is On The Menu?
Benita Valdez 3 years ago
All last night. My sinuses are clogged and I can't breathe out of my nose; my body forgets I can actually breath out of my mouth when nose is stuffed. Every time I started drifting off to sleep I'd gasp myself awake because I couldn't breathe out of my nose and though i tried breathing out of my mouth, I'd stop when falling asleep and default to nose. Finally fell asleep but then my alarm went off.

It’s A True Nightmare And Brought Me To The Point Where I Changed My Message Settings To Just Not Allow Group Texts From Anyone. I Do Not Want This

"You have dead horses in the pasture!!!" - "No, they are celebrating their naps, as every decent being should do." Standard conversation with tourists every summer. Many people are convinced that horses die when lying down. No, they need deep sleep phases a couple of times during 24h, to stay healthy, relaxed and happy. If they cannot lie down, they get sick.

As a kid I had a wonderful cat who loved (or tolerated) when I dressed her up in my doll clothes. Her favorite was a faux fur jacket with matching hat. She used to steal the hat and carry it around in her mouth. :) Our other cat made it quite clear that clothing was not for her.

Single Iso Precedented Times
Katie Lutesinger 3 years ago
A string of horrible things happened to me in 2015-16 which finally threw me into catastrophic levels of depression (the therapist I finally went to actually had to ask "are you SURE you haven't had any thoughts about harming yourself?" because after the first couple of sessions she thought I must have been lying the first time she asked that question). Since then further horrible things have happened and objectively speaking my life hasn't improved much and in some ways has definitely gotten worse. But these days I just don't seem to react anywhere near as badly as I used to and have even become capable of feeling happy and enjoying life even when I'm in a really bad situation. I guess it's partly that I've become more stoic, but if I learned anything from the pandemic it was a) Let go of the illusion that you're in control of what life is going to throw at you, and b) Appreciate and take pleasure in the present moment. When all is said and done it's the one thing you truly have.
