social anxiety is challenging. I should be upstairs at a potluck socializing with work colleagues but when I walked in the room, all I could do was turn around and walk out. So I'm hiding in my office....
awe hugs you Lishi, I understand that. I do the same thing. Crowds just overwhelm me.

Awwww Lishi<3 I was dealing with anxiety, still am, to the point where I wasn't able to leave my house. You've gotta push yourself, you've got it!!!
I came! I made dessert! That was more than I wanted to do initially 
I just looked in the room and I don't know anyone (and I KNOW the only way to know people is to go in)... My logical self knows what I need
I just looked in the room and I don't know anyone (and I KNOW the only way to know people is to go in)... My logical self knows what I need
to do, but without a "safe" person to talk to (okay, cling to), I just can't- my heart races, I get flushed, I have tremors... and then I come back here and cry because I'm mad at myself for not doing it.
