Dependent! Fear of going alone

You know there's two types of kids the kid who stays in the safe zone holds moms hand and the one who goes missing and parents look for lol. I'm very dependent I never went out of my parents sight I don't know what is wrong with me, I freak out going places alone how can I be independent? Some people are just so natural successful and just they enjoy there own company. I prefer the company of people all the time. Especially in public how the heck do you guy's do it? Shopping and anything I get freaked out hey don't judge me as a child to prevent child kidnapping or rape I was taught the buddy system but it stayed with me now I need a independent woman and a tazer but in all honesty how do moms just chill out and go places alone or with the kids don't you want company
