Is it ok to use a guitar amp if I am wearing headphones, or should I buy a bass headphone amp? Is there a difference?

​

Can't afford a proper bass amp currently, so I would rather save up money for that and use the guitar amp for now if there aren't any problems.

Started just 3 days ago and trying to improve my fretting. I am mostly just going up and down the frets, it's very difficult.

It feels impossible to both play precisely (press down at the right spot) and keep my fingers from moving away. Hard to do just one of them already. Feels like I am not going to make much progress doing both poorly, but I also heard you should play very slowly and as correctly as possible to avoid bad habits.

Should I be trying to do things as perfectly as I can to avoid developing bad habits, or should I just focus on precision for now and work on my finger control later?

I dont really care much how others view me. I am generally quite fine with embarrasment compared to most people. I still have fairly strong social anxiety though

I would say I have a fear of getting too comfortable with others and positive social interactions. When I interact with a stranger or acquaintance and it starts to feel we are getting friendly or forming some sort of connection/bond it sets off some sort of visceral panic reaction and I want to run and feel like vomiting. I'm not sure why this happens, but it makes life very difficult when it is hard to have a conversation with anyone you don't already know well.

Seriously, why am I like this?
