Autistics deserve time to recharge from social situations
Spoonies deserve time to recharge from social situations
Anxious people deserve time to recharge from social situations
Does anyone need time to recharge from social situations? Give them their time. We need it

anxiety is disabling. it's not something you can simply push or think or will your way out of. it's a condition and neurodivergency. it affects both your body and mind. you can't overhaul your nervous system just by telling yourself to stop being high strung and sensitive. pushing yourself to do things that you cannot cope with is only going to make things worse, and harder than they have to be.
it's not your fault and you don't need to be fixed. you need support. coping skills. patience. resources. accomodations. comfort. happiness. things like force, coercion, judgement, and ridicule are all antithetical to what you need. they're not helpful; they're harmful, and you deserve better.

Anxiety culture is being able to help your friends with their anxiety worries, but being unable to apply your own words to yourself. It just feels so much realer when someone else says it, instead of trying to convince myself.

I find it so weird when people don’t have anxiety like what do you spend your time doing if you’re not just constantly worrying?? Enjoying your life???? Wild.

Just a note about psychiatric hospital stays.
I think people who haven’t ever been before often misunderstand the purpose of a psychiatric hospital stay. I think people tend to think it is a place to go to get treatment, but it isn’t. 
Psychiatric hospital stays have one purpose--stabilization. They are not meant to provide long term treatment. They are meant for people in an acute crisis situation who cannot be safe on their own. They will keep you there only long enough to get you out of that crisis.
If you are looking for long term treatment and think you need a higher level of care than individual or group outpatient therapy, what you want to look for is Residential treatment. 
Inpatient (psych hospital) stays are usually between 3 and 14 days long at most. Residential stays are usually months long. Inpatient may or may not offer group therapy sessions. Residential will give you group therapy, process groups, individual therapy, psychiatry, and maybe more (like equine or art therapy). 
There are also other levels of care, such as partial hospitalization (PHP--think day program) and intensive outpatient (IOP--think lots of group therapy). 
Psych hospitals serve a very specific purpose and (although your milage may vary) are somewhat good at that one thing--keeping you physically safe in a time of crisis. But if you want actual treatment, you are probably not going to get it there. 
If you are in crisis and cannot keep yourself safe, by all means go to the ER! But if you are just desperate for longer term treatment that will help you get your life together and feel better long term, look into residential, PHP, or IOP. 
Good luck! Stay safe!

Ah yes, it's the age old question: is it psychic intuition or my anxiety disorder?

ykno phrases like "crippling anxiety" aren't wrong, right? like. anxiety can cause/worsen high blood pressure or high heart rate. it can make you faint or overheat. it can make you hyperventilate and unable to breathe. it can make unable to move or speak. etc. etc. and it isn't the only mental health condition that can cause symptoms like that.
there's no denying that the word cripple refers to "physical" disability the vast majority of the time, but the mind is part of the body. the line between "mental" and "physical" disability is.. not a line at all. they're forever interconnected. mentally ill and neurodivergent people can be crippled.
