Recently I have had a few nights of trouble sleeping and during these times my mind has been so busy, which I believe to have been the cause of the sleeping trouble. Anyway during one of these times it came to mind about my anxiety over calling people for things. Most of the time I try to call someone about things, like if we need to find a plumber or electrician, when I make the call I always end up forgetting things I need to ask. This has caused me not to like to make a lot of calls.
Well the other night as I was thinking about these things, it dawned on me that it is even deeper than having anxiety over calling for things. Honestly I do not like to make most kinds of phone calls. I just do not have a desire to talk to people on the phone.
I realized that when I was younger even if I was to be on the phone with someone there was not a lot I would say. Mostly because I do not like to be on the phone. In all of the years I have been around my preferred method of talking to other people was either face to face or by writing to them.
It has been a strange realization for me, but I have always felt that in some ways I would have fit better in a time when there was no phones to be calling people on. Even now that I have a cell phone and can call someone anytime I wish I do not find that I have a desire to do so.
