Social anxiety is eating me up

i have always struggled with social anxiety, but lately it’s intensified big time. Even something as simple as going to the barbers terrifies me, knowing I’ll have to maintain a basic conversation for a petty 10 minutes. I’m tired of this, I just want to be confident. That’s all I want but it never comes. F*** social anxiety.

I totally get you. When you think you have finally made it and that anxiety won't hit you it comes back. But it does get easier every time you try. You will have bad days (a lot) but good day will come...
