I do a lot of things that people are afraid to do and it feels so easy for me… and yet simple social interaction can be so incredibly stressful.

Honestly, nothing crazy. Things that have elecited reactions include traveling all over the place solo, scuba diving, sky diving, hopping into a four seater plane when it's raining and foggy, getting up in front of people singing... Nothing really big, but the number of times people have said, "I could never do that!" that have coincided with me thinking, "This conversation is way more stressful than that!" is kind of funny.

Rozwud, I challenge you to pet a cat in public while baby talking loudly, until the cat decides to leave.
