@nemesie I suffer from social anxiety so I understand the feeling. Instead of my vision going blurry when called upon to read, my mind goes completely blank when I am called upon to answer a question. It's frustrating to feel like others might see you differently than you really are. I know the answers but I'll lose it in the moment.

I hope your social anxiety gets better. I've been working with a counselor on mine.

@nemesie

i do understand how that feels . growing up i like to think that its over but its still happening sometimes . still picking my words very carefully, saying the least amount of words possible when talking to others. i used to freak out whenever its my turn to read or go out to write something on the board lol

saying too much inside . but i can only let out very little of it

i think time will show us how to deal with it i guess.
