    ADHD folks too. Especially since they have been procrastinating on this for months and it took 2 mins to get it resolved.

    This isn’t an introvert thing though. I’m the champion of introversion and can make it through a phone call no problem. Don’t ask me to call someone I don’t know though. But my point is, this is some form of anxiety. It may be more prevalent in introverts, that’s probably why we can bond over it. But its not an introvert thing to be scared of phone calls, its something else.

    Thanks for doing the hard stuff for yourself. Youre worth the effort and pain. Sorry so much of life requires constant maintenance.

      It’s so common there’s clearly something wrong with phones. Maybe they’re cursed?

      Over ten years ago I had to make a phone call to a foreign country to book a hotel, and my heart rate was as if I’d just sprinted somewhere

        It’s so common

        It didn’t use to be. I’ve been making phone calls since I was a kid (more than 40 years ago) so no, I don’t think the phones themselves are the culprits.
