November | 2013 | The Social Anxietist

https://thesocialanxietist.wordpress.com/2013/11

Finding hope in a world of fear, anxiety and despair. November 21, 2013. Lately, I’ve been trying to make more of an effort to step out of my comfort zone and interact with people in real life. It’s exhausting having to push myself to socialise. I wish it came more naturally to me. November 2, 2013. There is a constant guilt hanging over me. I could think of several reasons why, but it mostly boils down to needing to please people but not always being able to. Saying no to people can be very difficult so...

Finding hope in a world of fear, anxiety and despair. July 23, 2013. 8220;Everyone is trying to accomplish something big, not realizing that life is made up of little things.” – Frank A. Clark. We hear many times about people who make the headlines for achieving great things. Compared to them, I feel useless. I wonder what I’ve ever done with my life. There aren’t many accomplishments in my life. Why would anyone even notice me? I feel so ordinary, so worthless. July 21, 2013. No Better Time than Now.

Dear Self, | The Social Anxietist

https://thesocialanxietist.wordpress.com/2013/10/19/dear-self

Finding hope in a world of fear, anxiety and despair. October 19, 2013. I don’t want people to judge you but I’m the one who judges you the most. I’ve expected you to live by everyone else’s standards that actually seem to be flawed. All I wonder is why you can’t just be normal and happy like the rest of the world but sometimes I wonder if they really are happy and normal. I want you to be able to find comfort in knowing that even if the whole world turns their back on you, I’ll still be here for you&#46...

Feeling Trapped | The Social Anxietist

https://thesocialanxietist.wordpress.com/2015/03/08/feeling-trapped

Finding hope in a world of fear, anxiety and despair. March 8, 2015. Disclaimer: Depressing and may be triggering. A lot of the situations I have to face in life seem too much for me to handle. I feel I’ll buckle under the weight and collapse. But no matter how much strain it puts on my mental health, life is a battle I can’t back out from. It’s similar to playing a video game on the hardest setting and not having the option to lower the difficulty level. However, the problems I experience are more on an...

Finding hope in a world of fear, anxiety and despair. Welcome and thanks for visiting my blog. I am a female in the mid twenties. I suffer from an anxiety disorder called. It is hard for me to pinpoint exactly when it all started but I remember the first time I felt different from everyone around me was when I joined school. At home, I was able to be myself but the moment I walked into the classroom, I shut down and barely said anything to anyone. Hen I never really grew out of my “shyness”, ...I have ne...

“Why Are You So Quiet?” | The Social Anxietist

https://thesocialanxietist.wordpress.com/2015/06/14/why-are-you-so-quiet

Finding hope in a world of fear, anxiety and despair. June 14, 2015. 8220;Why Are You So Quiet? I was having lunch some time ago with a few of my colleagues and one of them said to me “You don’t talk much, do you? I didn’t exactly know how to respond to her. All I ended up doing was smiling nervously and avoiding everyone’s stares. My face had grown hot. I wanted to disappear. I can’t stand being called out for being quiet. She probably didn’t mean to make me uncomfortable or upset. But it’s not like I d...

https://thesocialanxietist.wordpress.com/2013/12

Finding hope in a world of fear, anxiety and despair. December 10, 2013. I Need Some Time Alone. But it’s tiring having to be around them right now. They drain the life out of me. I can’t even muster up enough enthusiasm to talk to them. In conversations, my mind goes blank and I struggle to keep the awkward silences out. I can’t find the energy to put into words the thoughts that cross my mind. It’s just easier to keep to myself when everything takes so much work and effort. Postcards From Far Away.
