Summer is slowly coming to an end. For some it has yet to begin.

And for some of us Summer brings social anxiety issues.

🐾 What is your favorite part of summer?

🐾 What is your coping mechanism with social events?
🐾 If your special someone came to you and asked for help with social anxieties, what advice would you give them?

🐾 Do social events breech your boundaries?


If you prefer not to answer these questions, feel free to share anything that's on your mind, say hello, or just ask for a hug.

💗 Always happy to hear from you.


“Do not anticipate trouble or worry about what may never happen. Keep in the sunlight.”

— Benjamin Franklin

@Barltik2065 Thanks for the check-in. I love having a space to come to reflect, answer icebreakers, or just ask for a hug. But anyone, for me, my favorite thing about summer is...

Ok really, there's a lot I love in the Summer months but I'm having a sweet tooth so 🍦🍨 it is. Lol. 😄 Hope you have a sweet day.

🌞 What is your favorite part of summer?…. Everything!… I love the sun, the warmth, swimming, vacationing, the Ocean/Beach, etc.. all of it!


😎What is your coping mechanism with social events?….. It depends on the Event. If I feel it’s going to be a positive experience then I do my best to attend. If not, I try to find other ways around having to be there physically.



🐾 If your special someone came to you and asked for help with social anxieties, what advice would you give them?…..I guess it would depend on what type of help they actually needed and what the exact situation was.


🌞 Do social events breech your boundaries?….. No, because I make sure to never have “my” personal boundaries crossed.

What is your favorite part of summer?

My favourite part is going out to eat with my friends in the sunshine and spending time in the garden.

What is your coping mechanism with social events?

I pre-plan where it is or what to expect e. g people who are attending, what's the menu or activity. Then I have a better idea what to expect instead of being surprised.

If your special someone came to you and asked for help with social anxieties, what advice would you give them?

Tell them to create a self care plan, develop breathing strategies like box breathing and go to unfamiliar places with a friend or close one if possible or have them on the phone for comfort.


Do social events breech your boundaries?

No but if it is something I don't like I will not attend it.

Oh How wonderful image of the well planned and understood time with friends activities in the sunshine

I can imagine a low stress and anxiety time.

Thank you for sharing.
