HiKissa! :)

I'm so sorry that you have to go through all of that, but I really do understand you. I've been through the same where crowds scared me so much that I used to have a sudden panic attack. I've survived depression myself and I understand how hard it gets.

I would offer you advice, but it'd be wrong on my part because I don't know you as much as you know yourself. But what I can surely do, is to help you by listening to you. Message me if ever you need to talk to someone about anything. I would try my bestto help you :)

Stay strong! *hugs*

Hi Kissa! Beautiful name. :) Welcome to 7 Cups!
Anxiety is hard to live with, and I'm really sorry you have to deal with it. It sounds like you might have some form of social anxiety, although only a doctor or other professional can diagnose you. If you feel like you might benefit from professional help, you may want to consider talking to your doctor and seeing what your options are.

We're all here for you! I really hope things get better for you. You deserve to be happy.heart
