Has anyone else experienced other people staring if you inject in public?

For me it has gotten to the point where i refuse to eat out!!

I just don't eat out. It's hardly worth it, anyway. You just end up spending way too much on a cruddy salad.

I find it hard to find stuff you can actually eat. Most meals are so carb heavy.

I have another similar issue. I have to sneak my apple cider vinegar, and seeds into my meal, contraband.

People really couldn't care less - I've never noticed them staring at me, they are too wrapped up in whatever they are doing. Usually only the people eating with me will notice. Once I went out to dinner for a family member's birthday with their work colleagues - all medical professionals. I've never felt so safe in my life!

Yep it happens i just dont take too much notice now.

Dont get stuck in a plastic bubble it just makes you depressed....


I smile now and im thinking what would the reaction be if i told them i had r*****ies...

Serously last time i was on a train this guy obviously t1 .... i think it is a bigger thing to him than the rest of the carriage..... i just use a little discretion if people look its not my problem.

I wouldnt let it stop you going out.
