Re: Making it day to day. Question

[Guest guest]

I understand your anxiety about crowds. We have decided it is a rare thing that can make us put up with that many people. I too stay home a lot. The key is to make peace with where you are and what you have. The peace that passes understanding. I took up gardening and love it. I have a saying hanging above my favorite chair that says:Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking , the whole world belongs to you. 29:11 is my favorite. God will bless you in your journey. His mercy is new every morning.

But if I am not in some sort of routine I tend to get very lost. Right now my entire schedule is messed up and I am not doing anything till Monday, and I have been just pacing back and forth. I also want to read but if I start reading I may not quit till like 2 or 3 am. And if anyone calls me or anything I will not hear it and or not asnwer it or respond. My parents and I go to that conference tommorow and called the pastor there is 500 people going to be there. I am not sure how I am going to do. I have no friends no relationships and no social outings. This will be my first back together with my parents since we had are falling out about 4/5 months ago and I really want to screw it up. Very scared about talking to people and meeting people as well as crowds loud noisies and very much kinda everything in the world. Not sure how I am going to do. Also, just making it day to day is pretty much a challenge just stepping out of the house. If any sort of thing changes my whole world view gets changed and I get very upset. I tend to never go outside or do anything because of the changes that happen day to day.I tend to just read and stay alone. Now my next question is, I have zero social skills, and don't understand anything about the world. How am I suppost to keep a conversation going tommorow if someone comes and talks to me? I have no idea! The only thing I know about is the bible!
