  1. Hello, I'm an early 20s girl which doesn't take the regular road in life I guess. I'm into art and that comes with lots of fear of failing, being passive, scared of coming out of my comfortzone and I struggle with depression and anxiety in general. Also I'm an introvert and search for things that suit my introverted self. I'm just searching for some good psychology, inspiring, selfhelp books that could do good for humanbeings like myself. I'm a bit thristy for some good old knowledge that could help me I guess. So if you know some that are good, let me know! I'm quite smart so I don't care if they're a bit on the deeper/difficult side. (read: I read The Secret, The Power Of Now, QUIET already) I'm very thankful for any suggestions!
  2. I always get anxious about events such as my birthday (or my boyfriends' birthday) and Christmas. I'm nervous what the gifts will be like, when everyone will arrive, what the conversations will be like.. I know this is part of my autism. I don't do well with surprises, I need time to adjust to change. I find it difficult too if I get a gift I don't like and how to act to the gift giver. This is why I usually ask for specific things, because I prefer to know what I'm getting (even if I might not know exactly what it looks like). I'm probably in the minority being nervous for my own birthday, though maybe some of you are nervous about hosting Christmas dinner or such? Whether the food will be allright and people will like it.. I'm also nervous for Christmas, not yet right now, but when it's near Christmas (coincidentally or not, it's also my boyfriends' birthday so double nervousness ). I'm nervous if people will like the food I prepared and how things will go. Sorry if this is hard to understand, some people in my family seem to find it hard to understand. They see birthdays and Christmas and other events as joyful things and don't understand it stresses me so. That's not to say I don't enjoy the events when they happen. But unfortunately there's always stress and anxiety associated with them. Am I alone in this or are there other people who worry about similar things? Is anyone stressed when they invite family over for Christmas dinner? (I think there must be someone!)
