I don't know if this is similar, but on Saturday I participated in a 5k run at a park. I was dreading it... But its such a beautiful park and the weather was amazing. I felt invigorated after the run. I really enjoyed it.

I've been meaning to get back into running. This helped me make that decision.

Well done for getting out to run, Nodejesque. Running is always worth the effort. The sense of achievement is huge.

Parkrun is an volunteered run 5km event. In Australian and Great Britian it is a phenomena.

It doesn't seem to have taken off in the US yet, there is only five events.

I feel like I am so different than 99% of the humans on this planet.
I love to be alone. When I am by myself away from others I am so happy to be alive. The further away from humans the better I feel. The lighter my spirit the happier my soul. I used to think it was because I wasn't around "the right people" I know now that the is no such thing. It is my sensitivity and my ability to be empathic that completely hinders my desire to be around people. Anything and everything they do effects me so much on so many levels. I don't ask to be this way. It is just the way I am. My physical and emotion make-up make any human interaction a thousand times more intense than the average person. Doesn't matter who it is, if they are near me, I will be greatly effected by them, and their energy. If they are sad or depressed or angry, those negative emotions cripple me. The tone in someone's voice can send me reeling. A slight micro expression I can read easily and be effected by. I read people really well. I have to be away from people to feel alive. That is the opposite of most anyone I have ever met. That is why I avoid cities and crowded places. They are full of human energy that oppresses me. I wish I could make myself dull. I wish I didn't care about anyone. I am crippled because of this trait in this world. I wish I knew what to do to "get over this" but it will never happen.

I feel restless and unhappy. Agitated. Not sure why.

By expressing negative feeling we begin to feel more negativity. It is a proven fact. Have you ever tried to smile and say you're feeling bad? I'm sure, you've not. So, do try this small technique and let me know. :)

^ I've been advised to connect with people, but when I do it is not long before complications arise and I start to feel fearful and miserable. And then I start to count the seconds until I can be on my own again. Then I relax again and my thoughts become open. I am Ok with cities there is certain level of anonymity, there a lots of people but I don't know any of them. I have a bigger problem with country towns where they are small and insular and everyone knows everyone else's and they gossip.

I went out twice today, and I actually felt better, not worse. It's funny, when your head is not filled with dread, the world doesn't appear anywhere near as scary. I hope it's not just a once off. :praying:
