I generally manage to hold it together until I’m back in my car or back in my (blessedly empty) house. Carrying around a pillow to scream in: useful in the short run, lol.
This is more or less the reason I’ve stopped going to concerts or taking airplane trips.
I too just avoid social interaction. I used to be ok with one on one, I can’t even do that anymore. :D Fortunately I enjoy being a loner.
A child at church beat me to a screaming meltdown one week.
[Quietly contemplates the logistics of schlepping around a pillow to scream into . . .]
Only problem with that is, now all eyes are on you! Here comes that anxiety again.
