First post...I decided to make this account because I’m seeing several other social-anxiety people having youtube accounts + blogs to express their feelings/lives...so I thought I should do something similar, hopefully this blog will help me and maybe resonate with anyone who is reading this :)

Today was a bit rough. my school is big on class participation (its pretty small), and as always, I didn’t participate. Which doesn’t make me feel great- it’s not that I don’t want to participate- I want to, but all the feelings restrain me and its really hard to overcome them. So same as always. Crappy feelings. 

Right now I’m trying to do homework, but at the same time I’m having one of those horrible, cringe-worthy feelings you get after you do something embarrassing. I sent this email to a teacher, and I didn’t really realize how long it is. Basically, its a bit personal (kinda digs into my anxiety experience), and was something I did out of my own intuition. But now I feel like its too vulnerable, to attention-grabby, to lengthy, just really embarrassing. And now I don’t know how I’ll be able to look this teacher in the eye tomorrow without it being awkward. ugh I don’t know. I’ll get over this period of self-hate and self-criticism too, but right now I can’t do anything but think about it and how stupid I am for sending it. 

Social anxiety is rough. :/
