When I was 10 years old, my aunt was taking a picture of me and said, "Stop with that cheesy fake smile, it makes your cheeks bunch up." I wasn't faking, it was my normal smile and now 10 years later, people remark on how I never smile in pictures.
I still have anxiety about this.
Many years ago, when I was 7 or 8, I was at a friend’s birthday party where they’d set out a table of food. I went upstairs to get a second plate. A few years later, I was told that one of my friend’s friends had said, “What a fat pig.” I have trouble with eating disorders to this day.
I still have anxiety about this.
Over ten years ago I was driving to the beach about an hour or so from my college town. The last segment involves a bridge of about two miles over the water. For a split second, a piece of cardboard the size of a refrigerator completely covered my windshield. I panicked thinking there was no way I could stop or swerve to a curb when the wind thankfully blew it off just as quickly as it had landed it on my vehicle.
To this day, I still have anxiety when I drive over bridges.
At a parents evening, my science teacher asked me, “What’s your favourite subject?” I thought he meant between all subjects, so I said art, and he faltered and said, “Oh, I meant in science.” I literally wanted the ground to swallow me.
I still have anxiety about this.
A couple of years ago, we were at a restaurant where you pick what you want and get handed the plate on a slippery platter. I tripped on the stairs and threw my food all up the wall. The waitress said I could go back and explain what happened, and the dude behind the counter raised his eyebrow and said, "Are you the girl who threw her food everywhere?”
I still have anxiety about this.
7 months ago I bought in advance a birthday card from our group of friends to one of us. Two months later I was too nervous to go to the party and our friend didn't receive the card.
I still have anxiety about this.
When I first came out to my parents, they didn’t seem to believe me and told me that if I still felt that way when I was older, they’d accept me. It’s left me constantly questioning myself and wondering whether I’m just faking it.
A week ago, I had responded to an ad on Kijiji. After they told me the price, which was way out of my budget, I blocked their number and never responded.
I still have anxiety about this.
18 years ago, I wrote a love letter to my then crush. It was extremely personal, and clearly marked (in true elementary fashion), "for your eyes only." He read it aloud to an entire table of boys at lunch, who laughed while staring at me.
I still have anxiety about this.
9 years ago, while I was in the 2nd grade, one of the screws in my chair had broken and I had fallen in the middle of class. Because I was heavier, everyone assumed I’d “broken the chair.”
I still have anxiety about this.
A former college professor of mine was running for county supervisor. I greeted him at a campaign event, and said to him, "You gave me an A when I took your class, so I'm voting for you to return the favor." Immediately, I regretted saying this, and I'm cringing inwardly right now as I write this. The remark was not funny, but sounded egotistical and venal.
I still have anxiety over this.
When I was in elementary/middle school, I often overheard my mom talking about me on the phone to basically anyone who would listen, including complete strangers. She'd talk about every aspect of my life, even things I thought I told her in confidence. I'm twenty now, and one of the major reasons I haven't come out to my family is because I know she'll tell everyone she knows about it regardless of whether they should/need to know.
I still have anxiety about telling her anything important.
3 years ago. I got glasses because of my eyesight and frequent headaches but the day I wore them at school, my classmate told me I looked like a granny. I stopped wearing them at school even if I needed to.
I still have anxiety about this.
7 years ago, during a Math exam, my nose bled and a few drops of blood fell on the question paper. We had to hand it back after the exam and when we got it back a few weeks later, the teacher gave out the question papers randomly. A girl got mine and screamed, "Ew! There's blood on mine!" Everyone laughed and the teacher gave her a new paper and threw mine away.
I still have anxiety about this.
I moved back home in my early 20's after living in Los Angeles for a few years. I was in between jobs and especially broke. I went to CVS to get a mascara because I had run out. My bank card got declined. I was mortified and ashamed to be an adult who didn't even have five dollars to her name.
I still have anxiety about this.
A year ago I was absent for about a month at school and was finally coming back. I wanted to come in unnoticed because I was having a breakdown. However, my shoes were squeaky from the rain that morning. So I walked down the hallway loudly with my squeaky shoes and walked into the classroom. Everyone turned their heads at me.
I still have anxiety about this.
About 4 years ago, it was getting near to Valentine’s Day and the teacher asked the class what movie they wanted to watch. I raised my hand and suggested Ted, a movie I had heard was kind of a love movie but I didn't know it was rated R. People started laughing and the teacher said no. To make it worse, this was a Christian private school. I was confused until I looked it up later. Now I don't suggest something until I have looked it up thoroughly.
I still have anxiety about this.
