Today, I asked my shut in of a daughter why she was sniffing black pepper. She said she was practicing to make her sneezes sound like coughs, thereby decreasing the likelihood of someone talking to her. FML

She might have social anxiety. Talk to her more, its a great start to help ease it.

OP, maybe you should look into helping her break out of her shell. Her level of introvertedness sounds kind of extreme.

She's committed and resourceful at least. I'm somewhat introverted myself so I have at least a little sympathy for her, though I would never go to such lengths personally.

I think this is in case she has to sneeze. She wants to make her sneezes sound like coughs.

If I weren't deathly allergic to black pepper I'd probably do the same to be honest

at least you won't have to care about who she dates

You need to talk with your daughter. She should be excited about making friends. If talking to you doesn't work then I would send her to therapy or let her chose an adult to talk with that is you or her mom

She SHOULD be? According to who or what mate?

I was always taught that making friends is a good thing. That was all I meant. She shouldn't be shy. But I don't know the whole situation which is why I suggested therapy, talking with an adult that not her mom or dad or someone that is her friend. I also am speaking from experience, I was a shy person now l enjoy talking with people and meeting new people.

That doesn't seem very healthy. I mean I'm an introvert but that's like an extreme level. Maybe she needs some therapy?

Let her do as she wants, she doesn't fail at life, that's kinda mean OP

You can't avoid people they are all around you...maybe a councillor will help you there OP
