What do normal teenagers do?

So ever since I was little I've always had a bit of a social anxiety disorder and been under confident. So I've stayed inside on the computer most of my days. However about 4 months ago I kicked my problems, but I still stay inside a lot. I mean, I now do a couple school things now and then, but I want to do more. It's the beginning of Spring Break and I want to go outside, it looks nice. Anyways, my question is what do normal teens do outside by themselves? The only thing I can think of right now is walking down to McDonalds and checking out Gamestop on the way. Thanks.

    Observe and reason with your observations of what people do. Right now you walk over to Mcdonalds and Gamestop just to get yourself out of the house, which is good and that is your reason for going to these places.

    But as you go out more, watch people more, and interact more, you may find more reasons to go out to certain places like 'normal' teenagers do. But then again what is normal to a group of people may be abnormal for another group.

    Activities include sports( basketball, baseball, jogging,etc) in the morning or evening.

    Visiting each others homes to play and interact.

    Eating out at a restaurant.

    Shopping.

    Parties.

    Watch a movie.

    These are the usual things, and usually done by a group of friends. Right now you go out just to get out of the house, its a good start, and as you participate in these activities with friends, you might enjoy them and will want to go out more often for different reasons this time.

    But dont worry if its not your thing, some people prefer to stay at home like me, i love quiet and solitary, but maybe you want to experience more social contact, give it a go on the few activities i mentioned :)

    Oh yes, very important. You want to do what normal people do to be normal, that too is normal. But after you try all these things and dont really find pleasure in them, or you naturally like them and participate in them more often, whichever you choose, is normal, because you are you and this is what you do.
