i feel like when i am seen or observed by other people that it takes something away from me. that them observing me compromises my integrity, changing or taking something from me

i am strange and my strangeness is observed & quartered for consumption when others see me, and they conceptualize that i am strange and that takes something away from me. they do not want to understand me they just want to drain me so i am safest being alone so that i cannot be weakened by eyes

when i say words its parts of myself leaving me, and when other people hear those words they are taking those parts of me away from me and they aren't good enough for those parts.
