hey

I used to suffer from social anxiety too. It was super bad. Like I can't even eat in front of people. I used to feel like that people are observing me every minute,my every move.I'm being watched! I can't even talk to my friends in front of strangers.And it was pretty hard to approach strangers. Then one day, I promised myself to break my social anxiety - to break this ice that can't let me move. I want to be myself 🌟 Then I started taking small steps- Like asking address even though I knew it. Avoiding online shopping❌ Ordering my food- eating in a restaurant sitting alone or with a friend, Starting conversations with strangers, sometimes calling out my friend name loudly in a public place! Oh this moment was very relieving! Some people were laughing at me, others smiled at me for shouting this loudly, most of them were busy. I realised that day- Just be yourself! All people are busy in their own world - even if I did something embarassing - They will go home, and they will forget. Nothing will matter. What will truly matter is enjoying life- living laughing without any fear.

Social anxiety can get tough sometimes but at the end nobody really cares

We think that everybody is watching us but in reality nobody really has the time. Just have faith on yourself and believe in yourself

You feel nervous and overwhelmed. I understand how you feel. I have been there.

If it makes you feel any better I just about do the same thing cause lately it’s all bad news (med dr.). I’m 43 and my body is falling apart it’s seems to me. What helps me even when online with my therapist is open up and cry! Even cry at Dr.s appointments. After so long being the way I am I do not get embarrassed at all. Just be…..Love to you!
