I really can’t. I don’t drive, and I don’t know how to be anywhere by myself because I’ve never had to. I feel afraid and anxious about trying. I also don’t have any friends who are willing to go out with me to help me feel more confident and comfortable most of my friends are long-distance. If I could just leave and go on my own, I would, but it’s hard because I never learned how to function or be anywhere alone. I’ve always had my parents, and I also live in a place where it can be dangerous.
Baby steps to be honest. I love good fancy food so I started w that. Went and found restaurants I wanted to experience sat at the bar or solo tables and just took it all in… pretended I was a food critic a few times lol had fun and worked my way up. Def nervous at first, hella anxious but over time I worked around it through doing it again and making a game out of n stuff
I might have the mind of one because of how I was raised, and I can’t help that very well but i try. I also can’t drive because nobody in my family drives, so I couldn’t get my learner’s permit. I was homeschooled, so I didn’t take driver’s ed, and I can’t afford a car. Even my parents don’t drive.
