What to do when npc talk in order to stay sane and I cannot walk away ?

I know exactly what you mean when you ask this question as no doubt almost all of the comrades here do since for anyone who is in the least bit neural divergent, it is impossible to relate to, commiserate with or really every truly understand the things that captivate normies. I find that they indulge in the most banal and trivial topics of conversation so that I have acquired a sufficient understanding of things such as weather, sports, current events amongst celebrities and other trivialities to be able to engage with them, albeit in a contrived manner. Whenever I know that I must partake in long duration conversations with normies (at family gatherings, weddings, dinner outings, etc.) I typically take some Xanax to reduce my anxiety and reduce my inhibitions to a point where I am indifferent to how I am perceived regardless of my autism.
