I always do self checkout. Yesterday in a shoe store I wanted the helpful sales person to leave me alone.
I'm in a condo with a concierge. During COVID I'd go out the car entrance rather than the lobby, "to spare the concierge extra possible exposures."
After I self diagnosed I realized I was avoiding the lobby because even a brief hello each time through was too much expected social interaction for me.

My backyard has a 5 foot tall fence. Not high enough that I can't see the neighbors when they're out in their backyard, which is stress-inducing.
Am I expected to wave? Say something? Start a conversation?
I've not gone outside, because I saw them out and I just couldn't deal with it.
