So easy...

There's times I get really scared, scared of how my social anxiety freezes me or kicks me after I pushed myself out of my comfort zone. The way my life got affected by it without me stopping it, the way It just made me change so much even with my own friends, makes me scared and sad.

But I want to get better, and last month I started to go see a therapist. I wish the progress was faster but I know it takes time and it also depends a lot on myself.
I'm trying my best, even tho the feeling is hard to control.

Hope you don't mind me being open about this, maybe being more open is also what I need.
I'm glad at least, this made me draw cute roses

With time I'm sure that you'll be able to be how you want to be (⁠。⁠•̀⁠ᴗ⁠-⁠)⁠✧

( My little advice to be less anxious is to listen to Maori/Polynesian songs ! It's full of good vibes and calm ! (⁠ ͝⁠°⁠ ͜⁠ʖ͡⁠°⁠)⁠ᕤ )
I also have social anxiety and generalized anxiety disorder. It took me a long time to finally start seeing a therapist, which wasn’t until December of last year. It’s hard, really hard. I know how frustrating it can be at times, mainly towards yourself.

It sometimes feels like you’re a bird in a cage with the door unlocked and opened, but you’re stuck in your spot to even leave. It seems so easy yet isn’t. And as the pattern continues, it’s so easy to beat ourselves over it.

I just wanted to say that you’re never alone in this. I think being able to find the courage to go see a therapist in the first place is definitely a huge step forward and something to be proud of.

Therapy certainly isn’t a fast progress for sure 😅, especially in the beginning. It does show progress and results over time though, so rest assured.

I hope all is well and you are able to find results in your therapy sessions!
Relatable 😶 anyway I love the art!!
It's very relatable But WE GOT THIS 🥺 AND youuuu got this! You're doing your best and that's enough!
Of course, it takes time! And I think that, in some ways, the first step is the hardest. The rest is hard, too, but you already start just feels different? Courage, I believe in you!
And the roses are lovely 🤩
ahhh I know the struggle :(( but I'm glad to know that you're getting better, and it's so cool that you're open about it 💕 It can be quite freeing or help in the healing process, so talk about it as much as you need <3
