Social Anxiety Confession #3

I can’t stand when people tell me that my diagnosis isn’t real.  Especially that I’m doing it so I don’t have to take responsibility or become an adult.

Um, I have a job.  I pay my own phone bill and pay for my own gas.  I go into the doctor office on my own and make my own hair appointments….

I guess they just don’t understand what huge steps those are for someone with a social anxiety.  It’s the same as someone with arachnophobia finally being able to kill a spider.

But in the end, it doesn’t matter.  Because I am proud of myself :).  And I know I am doing everything I can to better my future.

* if you have a social anxiety or any other kind of anxiety, I am here to talk or to listen :)
