enjoy your own company
i started going to the cinema by myself last year and its the best thing ever. I dont know why it scared me so much to do things alone, however doing things solo actually made my social anxiety better. I love just hanging out by myself now; going to the cinema; a nature walk; solo study date at a cafe. Doing things alone will heal something in you

I need to build the confidence to do that. Maybe I'll try that out next time a movie I'm interested in comes out! You've inspired me.

Good for you!!! Literally nothing better than catching the last full show alone and the cinema would be completely empty or very very sparse. Cheering for more of these experiences for you, friend!

Going on dates by yourself
Though some people might find this kind of depressing I actually see it as the opposite. It’s really been a while since I’ve done this but I see it necessary to go on a date with yourself once in a while. Go to a cafe, take a walk without any destination in mind, or you might as well go to the cinema on your own.
More than an act of self love I perceive it as a way to embrace solitude and get to know yourself more; It brings so much inner peace and helps to heal that part of yourself that finds loneliness daunting. There is a beauty in everything and solitude is not the exception.

doing stuff by yourself
best thing you can do for yourself is become extremely comfortable with being alone and doing stuff by yourself. at a young age i forced myself to get comfortable with that and now it's my default state-- i LOVE doing stuff by myself. my coworker is a person who literally cannot go places by herself and i have been trying to help her get more comfortable doing things solo because it's very freeing. everyone should be happy to go do stuff by themselves, it's lovely!

going places alone is normal and good and fine
Idk, I’ve always loved being alone and doing things alone. I never understood friends who couldn’t even go to the bathroom alone. I hated waiting for people so I’d usually roll up to parties and events alone. I liked being on my own timeline.
I’m a mom now and would kill to go to a movie alone. Someone who would judge that is weird and is projecting their own anxiety and insecurity. You do you.

clothes suck
why can i never find anything at the store anymore? and this goes for thrift stores too. Everything is made of bad materials, bad quality, and everything just looks weird? It sits weird on the body, nothing looks nice anymore. Like comparing the old juicy tracks and the new ones? WHAT THE HELL IS THAT??? Why cant they make it the same way anymore, then that gets donated and the thrift stores get filled with shit clothing.

voices in my head
its just a voice constantly processing and reacting to my perceptions and emotions, answering and asking my brain different things. I also picture things like when i read or when im figuring out what to wear i can visualize it in my head if that makes sense? do other people not see things when they read? or when they think about something specific?
