I genuinely just don’t care what others think 😞 my worry of consequence eat me alive much more than the stares

i just was open and honest with people tbh, but only because i was at a point w myself where i was comfortable doing so. like if i could feel myself leaning towards engaging in a safety behavior in the presence of others i would preface it and say something like, “okay, i’m lowk a germaphob so i’m just gonna use my sleeve to open the door” (or wtv ur about to do) and then just do it and usually other people say they understand or that they get it 🤷🏽‍♀️
