Am I The Only One Who....

How cow, never knew i wasnt the only one to do all of this!

I dont think anyone is alone with anything. Ive learned, by researching documentries etc that im not alone with the most alone-like stuff from my past, feelings & thoughts, issues etc. Its sad but true, someone can always identify with you as someone somewhere has been there.

ETA: @Alice.in.Wonderland i overthink everything so i can also identify with that! :hug:s
 
I

I'm I the only one who can't stay focused on one task and my day is a stop and start of several things to be done because I get distracted so easily?
I consider it an accomplishment if I successfully I get 3 chores done.


Am I the only one who can go all day and not think about food but as soon as the evening hits I can't stop eating?

I'm never hungry during the day but come bed time I am. At that point only junk food is considered.

Who eats bean dip with a spoon and calls it dinner?

I do the same but for me it's BBQ beans.
 
... Doesn't know what the response format of this thread is? :D

Okay, Chimera you're so not the only one, I'm more surprised at people not able to identify others by their steps. In my head it's a given. Ditto to talking to strangers. The closer the friend is? The more I'm gonna overthink every line. Hello included.
 
Am I the only one who must leave at least one swallow of coffee in my cup?

Ha! Yes! And the last mouthful of my meal always gets left on my plate as well.
Its always puzzled me.

Am I the only one who has a particular way things MUST be done and no matter what, the job is not completed unless done that way only.

For example, the way I fold towels.
If my husband does it and its different, ill pull them all back out of the linen cupboard and do them Right.
My pantry is another, cans in certain order, labels facing directly frontward lol
(not ocd either, just anal retentive about some things and not others)
 
@ladee giggles at the "s" word
And counting on my fingers sometimes yes and other times I can measure the wall where I want to hang a picture, measure the picture frame, account for where the hangers are on the back and other than writing the measured numbers down because I will forget them, do the math in my head so the picture hangs exactly in the middle of the wall.
Yet if I am told to make a right turn, I have to stop and think what hand do I write with to know which is direction to go.

@Oasis Not only do I want company of friends but get overwhelmed in social situations, I hope someone calls and when they do often don't answer because I'm just not up to a "conversation "

@Cashew the closer the friend is, the more I overthink every line, hello included.... Absolutely! And the overthinking makes me anxious and (I think) weird acting so the friend starts to avoid me or me them....
 
Am I the only one who when they work on things like I did in unexpectedly writing down how my system works, a couple hours later gets hit with physical flu like symptoms, stomach nausea, the inability to even keep water down, IBS, and the chills?
